Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the Molex 1050282011 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Position Count & Grid Configuration: 32 positions in 4 x 8 arrangement
• Pitch Specification: 0.035" (0.90mm) for both mating and post contacts
• Mounting Technology: Surface mount configuration
• Contact Material & Finish: Copper alloy with gold plating on mating surface
• Electrical Rating: 0.5 A current capacity
• Flammability Compliance: UL94 V-0 rating

The Molex 1050281001 meets all these core substitution criteria. Both parts share identical position counts, pitch specifications, mounting type, and electrical ratings. The substitute maintains the same base product series (105028) and connector class, ensuring mechanical and electrical compatibility in camera socket applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Molex 1050281001 is the direct active equivalent for the obsolete 1050282011. Both connectors are manufactured by Molex within the same 105028 series and maintain identical mechanical and electrical specifications for camera socket applications.

The substitute part offers the following advantages for new designs and ongoing production:

• Active Product Status: The 1050281001 is currently in active production, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain stability.
• Regulatory Compliance: The substitute achieves ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements.
• Improved Availability: Current inventory of 6,965 units compared to the obsolete part's limited stock.

Both parts are suitable for direct substitution in surface mount camera socket applications requiring 32-position connectivity at 0.90mm pitch with gold-plated contacts and 0.5 A current capacity.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1050281001 directly replace the 1050282011 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical position counts (32), pitch specifications (0.035" / 0.90mm), mounting type (surface mount), contact materials (copper alloy with gold mating finish), and electrical ratings (0.5 A). The connectors are mechanically and electrically interchangeable.

Q: What is the difference in post contact finish between these parts?

A: The 1050282011 features gold post contacts with flash thickness, while the 1050281001 uses nickel post contacts at 50.0µin (1.27µm) thickness. Both finishes are applied to copper alloy base material and do not affect substitution compatibility for camera socket applications.

Q: Why is the 1050282011 listed as obsolete?

A: The 1050282011 has been superseded by the 1050281001 in Molex's product line. The substitute part offers improved regulatory compliance (ROHS3) and maintains active production status.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: The 1050282011 packaging is not specified in available documentation. The 1050281001 is available in Cut Tape (CT) and Digi-Reel® packaging formats, supporting both manual and automated assembly processes.

Q: Do both parts meet the same flammability standards?

A: Yes. Both the 1050282011 and 1050281001 are rated UL94 V-0, meeting identical material flammability requirements for camera socket applications.
