14-820-90C DIP Socket Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The 14-820-90C is an active DIP socket connector manufactured by Aries Electronics, designed for 14-position IC and transistor applications. This through-hole, right-angle horizontal socket features gold-plated mating contacts and is part of the Vertisockets™ 800 series. The part is ROHS3 compliant and maintains an operating temperature range of -55°C to 105°C. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters align with the original specification, enabling component interchangeability in applications where the primary part is unavailable or when packaging requirements differ.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The 14-820-90C has one identified substitute: 299-93-314-11-001000 (Mill-Max Manufacturing Corp.). This substitution is valid based on the following critical parameters that remain constant across both parts:

• 14-position DIP configuration with 2 x 7 arrangement
• 0.3" (7.62mm) row spacing
• 0.100" (2.54mm) mating pitch
• Gold-plated beryllium copper mating contacts
• Through-hole, right-angle, horizontal mounting
• 3 A current rating
• Solder termination
• Closed frame design

Both parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical interfaces, allowing direct substitution in applications where these core parameters define compatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the 14-820-90C and 299-93-314-11-001000 are active products suitable for current applications. The 14-820-90C is ROHS3 compliant, while the 299-93-314-11-001000 is RoHS non-compliant. Selection between these parts should be based on regulatory requirements: applications requiring RoHS3 compliance must use the 14-820-90C. The Mill-Max substitute offers an extended operating temperature range to 125°C compared to 105°C for the Aries part, providing additional thermal margin in high-temperature environments. Termination post length differs by 0.014" (0.36mm), requiring PCB design verification to ensure solder pad compatibility. Both parts are REACH unaffected and classified as EAR99 for export control purposes.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 299-93-314-11-001000 directly replace the 14-820-90C on existing PCBs?

A: Direct replacement is possible if PCB solder pad design accommodates the 0.126" (3.20mm) post length of the Mill-Max part versus the 0.140" (4.66mm) of the Aries part. Verify pad depth and solder fillet geometry before substitution.

Q: What is the primary difference between these two DIP sockets?

A: The primary differences are RoHS compliance status (14-820-90C is ROHS3 compliant; 299-93-314-11-001000 is non-compliant), operating temperature range (105°C vs. 125°C maximum), and termination post length (0.140" vs. 0.126"). Electrical and mechanical interfaces are equivalent.

Q: Does packaging format affect electrical performance?

A: No. The Bulk packaging of the 14-820-90C and Tube packaging of the 299-93-314-11-001000 do not affect electrical or mechanical performance. Packaging selection is based on inventory management and handling requirements.

Q: Are both parts suitable for lead-free solder assembly?

A: The 14-820-90C with tin post finish is compatible with lead-free solder processes. The 299-93-314-11-001000 features tin-lead post finish; compatibility with lead-free assembly requires process validation.

Q: What is the significance of the contact material difference (Brass vs. Brass Alloy)?

A: Both materials provide equivalent electrical conductivity and mechanical performance for this application. The specific alloy composition does not affect substitution eligibility based on the provided parameters.
