Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the 223008-2 is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Connector Type: Receptacle, Female Sockets
• Number of Positions: 60
• Pitch: 0.079" (2.00mm)
• Number of Rows: 5
• Mounting Type: Board Edge, Through Hole, Right Angle
• Termination: Press-Fit
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C ~ 125°C

Allowable Variations:

• Product Status: Active status is acceptable for obsolete parts
• Contact Finish: Enhanced finishes (Gold) are acceptable
• Material Flammability Rating: Enhanced ratings (UL94 V-0) are acceptable
• RoHS Compliance: Upgraded compliance status is acceptable
• Voltage Rating: Presence of voltage rating specification is acceptable

The substitute part 5223008-2 meets all mandatory matching parameters and demonstrates enhanced specifications in contact finish, flammability rating, and regulatory compliance, making it a direct functional equivalent.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 5223008-2 serves as a direct functional substitute for the obsolete 223008-2 based on identical core electrical and mechanical specifications. Both connectors share the same 60-position configuration, 0.079" (2.00mm) pitch, 5-row layout, board edge mounting method, and press-fit termination.

The 5223008-2 provides additional engineering advantages:

Regulatory Compliance: The 5223008-2 is ROHS3 compliant, whereas the 223008-2 is RoHS non-compliant. For applications subject to RoHS regulations, the 5223008-2 is the appropriate selection.

Product Availability: The 5223008-2 maintains active product status with 2244 units in stock, compared to the obsolete 223008-2 with 722 units available. For long-term supply continuity, the 5223008-2 is the preferred choice.

Enhanced Specifications: The 5223008-2 includes gold contact finish and UL94 V-0 flammability rating, providing improved performance characteristics over the unspecified finishes of the 223008-2.

Connector Style: The 5223008-2 is designated as Futurebus-compatible, indicating enhanced standardization and interoperability.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 5223008-2 directly replace the 223008-2 in existing applications?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical core specifications: 60 positions, 0.079" (2.00mm) pitch, 5-row configuration, board edge mounting, through-hole right-angle orientation, and press-fit termination. The 5223008-2 meets all functional requirements of the 223008-2.

Q: What are the key differences between these two connectors?

A: The primary differences are product status, regulatory compliance, and contact specifications. The 5223008-2 is active and ROHS3 compliant with gold-plated contacts and UL94 V-0 flammability rating. The 223008-2 is obsolete with unspecified contact finish and flammability rating.

Q: Are there any compatibility concerns with the Futurebus designation on the 5223008-2?

A: The Futurebus designation on the 5223008-2 indicates enhanced standardization and does not introduce incompatibility. The connector maintains the same physical and electrical interface as the 223008-2.

Q: What is the difference in packaging between these parts?

A: The 5223008-2 is supplied in tube packaging, while the 223008-2 packaging specification is not provided. Packaging differences do not affect connector functionality or interchangeability.

Q: Should RoHS compliance status influence the selection between these connectors?

A: RoHS compliance status should be evaluated based on application requirements and regulatory jurisdiction. If the application or market requires RoHS compliance, the 5223008-2 is the appropriate selection. If RoHS compliance is not required, either connector meets the functional specifications.

Q: Is the 30V voltage rating on the 5223008-2 a limiting factor?

A: The 30V voltage rating on the 5223008-2 represents a specified electrical parameter. The 223008-2 does not provide a voltage rating specification. Applications requiring voltage ratings above 30V should be evaluated against the specific system requirements.
