Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 207584-8 serves as the direct functional equivalent and recommended substitute for the obsolete 207584-3. Both components share identical electrical ratings, mechanical dimensions, and contact specifications within the Metrimate series.

Product Status Consideration: The 207584-3 carries obsolete designation, indicating discontinued manufacturing and limited availability. The 207584-8 maintains active product status with confirmed inventory availability (1111 pieces in stock), ensuring reliable procurement for current and future production requirements.

Compliance Enhancement: The 207584-8 provides improved regulatory compliance through ROHS3 certification and REACH Unaffected status, compared to the 207584-3 which carries undefined REACH status and non-applicable RoHS designation. This compliance upgrade aligns with current environmental and regulatory standards applicable to electronic components in automotive, general purpose, and industrial applications.

Contact Finish Specification: The primary technical distinction between these components is the post-contact finish specification. The 207584-3 utilizes Tin-Lead finish, while the 207584-8 employs Tin finish. Both finishes maintain identical thickness specifications (150.0µin / 3.81µm) and are compatible with standard solder termination processes. The Tin finish in the 207584-8 reflects current manufacturing standards and lead-free compliance initiatives.

Mechanical and Electrical Equivalence: All critical parameters determining connector functionality remain identical: 10-position single-row configuration, 5.00mm pitch spacing, 7.5A current rating, 600V voltage rating, -55°C to 130°C operating temperature range, and UL94 V-0 flammability rating. Direct substitution is supported without design modification or re-qualification requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 207584-8 be used as a direct replacement for the 207584-3 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The 207584-8 maintains identical electrical ratings (7.5A, 600V), mechanical dimensions (10-position, 5.00mm pitch, through-hole mounting), contact specifications (circular brass contacts with gold mating finish), and operating temperature range (-55°C to 130°C). Direct substitution is supported without design modification.

Q: What is the significance of the contact finish difference between Tin-Lead and Tin?

A: Both finishes are applied at identical thickness (150.0µin / 3.81µm) and are compatible with standard solder termination processes. The Tin finish in the 207584-8 reflects current manufacturing standards and environmental compliance initiatives. The functional performance in solder joint formation and electrical conductivity remains equivalent.

Q: Why is the 207584-3 listed as obsolete?

A: Obsolete designation indicates the manufacturer has discontinued production of this component. The 207584-8 represents the active production equivalent within the Metrimate series, ensuring continued availability and support for new designs and production requirements.

Q: What compliance advantages does the 207584-8 provide?

A: The 207584-8 carries ROHS3 Compliant certification and REACH Unaffected status, compared to the 207584-3 which has undefined REACH status and non-applicable RoHS designation. These certifications align with current environmental regulations applicable to automotive, general purpose, and industrial applications.

Q: Are the packaging specifications different between these parts?

A: The 207584-3 packaging specification is not provided in the technical data. The 207584-8 is supplied in Tube packaging, which is standard for industrial connector distribution. Packaging differences do not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility.

Q: What applications are these connectors suitable for?

A: Both the 207584-3 and 207584-8 are specified for automotive, general purpose, and industrial applications. The board-to-board or cable connection style, shrouded 4-wall design, and UL94 V-0 flammability rating support use in diverse industrial environments requiring reliable interconnection.

Q: Is the 207584-8 available in sufficient quantity for production requirements?

A: The 207584-8 has confirmed inventory of 1111 pieces in stock as new original components, compared to 696 pieces available for the obsolete 207584-3. The active product status and higher inventory level support reliable procurement for current production schedules.

Q: Are there any design considerations when transitioning from 207584-3 to 207584-8?

A: No design modifications are required. The components are mechanically and electrically identical. Standard solder termination processes used for the 207584-3 are directly applicable to the 207584-8. The Tin finish post-contact specification is compatible with conventional PCB assembly processes.
