Equivalent & Substitute Parts for 10073599-112LF

Part Overview

The 10073599-112LF is a 12-position rectangular connector receptacle housing manufactured by Amphenol ICC (FCI) in the Minitek® 2.00mm series. This component serves as the housing for female socket contacts in applications requiring compact, high-density interconnections with 2.00mm pitch spacing. The part is Active status and RoHS Compliant, making it suitable for modern electronic assemblies. Substitute parts may be required due to inventory availability, lead time constraints, or specific application requirements such as color specification or operating temperature range.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three parts meet the core functional requirements for 12-position, 2.00mm pitch rectangular connector receptacle housings with identical electrical and mechanical specifications.

10118940-012LF (Amphenol ICC): This substitute maintains identical operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C) and RoHS compliance status as the main part. The only difference is housing color (Black vs. Cream). This part is suitable for applications where color specification is not a design constraint.

5016461200 (Molex): This substitute provides equivalent functionality across all critical parameters. The operating temperature range is -40°C ~ 105°C, which is narrower than the main part. This part is suitable for applications operating within this temperature window. RoHS3 compliance exceeds RoHS Compliant requirements. Packaging is provided in Bulk format rather than Bag.

Selection between substitutes should be based on application-specific requirements including operating temperature range, color specification, packaging format, and manufacturer preference.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 10118940-012LF be used as a direct replacement for 10073599-112LF?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical and mechanical specifications including connector type, contact type, position count, pitch, row configuration, mounting type, termination method, fastening type, and insulation material. The housing color differs (Black vs. Cream), which does not affect functional interchangeability unless color is a design requirement.

Q: What is the key difference between 5016461200 and the main part?

A: The 5016461200 is functionally equivalent across all critical parameters. The primary differences are: operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 105°C vs. -55°C ~ 125°C), manufacturer (Molex vs. Amphenol ICC), series designation (iGrid 501646 vs. Minitek® 2.00mm), and packaging format (Bulk vs. Bag). Selection depends on whether the narrower temperature range is acceptable for the application.

Q: Are all three parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The main part and 10118940-012LF are RoHS Compliant. The 5016461200 is ROHS3 Compliant, which represents an enhanced compliance standard and is fully compatible with RoHS requirements.

Q: Does packaging format affect compatibility?

A: No. Packaging format (Bag vs. Bulk) does not affect the functional performance or interchangeability of the connector housing. It is a logistics and inventory consideration only.

Q: What is the MSL rating and why is it important?

A: All three parts have MSL 1 (Unlimited), indicating unlimited shelf life without moisture absorption concerns. This simplifies storage and handling requirements across all substitute options.
