Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 50003-1060E is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Connector type: Receptacle, Female Sockets
• Connector style: High Density (HDC, HDI, HPC)
• Number of positions: 60
• Pitch: 0.100" (2.54mm)
• Row and column configuration: 4 rows × 15 columns
• Mounting type: Through Hole, Right Angle
• Termination method: Solder
• Contact finish: Gold at 30.0µin (0.76µm)
• Series designation: HPC™
• Mating guide feature: Present

The 50003-1060ELF meets all these criteria and is classified as an active product, making it a direct functional equivalent. The primary distinction is the product status and RoHS compliance level.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 50003-1060ELF is the direct equivalent for the 50003-1060E across all functional and mechanical parameters. Selection between these parts should be based on the following criteria:

For new designs or systems requiring RoHS compliance: The 50003-1060ELF is the appropriate choice, as it carries RoHS Compliant certification while maintaining identical electrical and mechanical specifications.

For legacy system maintenance or replacement: Either part is functionally equivalent. The 50003-1060E remains available with adequate stock (743 units). The 50003-1060ELF offers the advantage of active product status and higher inventory availability (1165 units), ensuring long-term supply continuity.

For systems with no RoHS requirement: Both parts are interchangeable from a functional standpoint. The choice may be driven by inventory availability, cost, or supply chain considerations.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 50003-1060ELF be used as a direct replacement for the 50003-1060E?

A: Yes. Both parts are identical in connector type, position count, pitch, mounting configuration, and contact specifications. The 50003-1060ELF is the active equivalent with RoHS compliance.

Q: What is the difference between these two part numbers?

A: The primary differences are product status and RoHS compliance. The 50003-1060E is obsolete and RoHS non-compliant. The 50003-1060ELF is active and RoHS Compliant. All electrical and mechanical parameters are identical.

Q: Are there any compatibility concerns when substituting the 50003-1060ELF for the 50003-1060E?

A: No. Both parts share the same connector style, pitch, position configuration, mounting type, and contact finish specifications. They are mechanically and electrically interchangeable.

Q: What does the "ELF" suffix in 50003-1060ELF indicate?

A: The suffix typically indicates a variant designation within the Amphenol ICC product line. In this case, it corresponds to the RoHS Compliant version of the base 50003-1060 connector.

Q: Which part should be selected for new PCB designs?

A: The 50003-1060ELF is recommended for new designs, particularly if the application or end-market requires RoHS compliance. It maintains active product status, ensuring ongoing availability and support.

Q: Is the moisture sensitivity level the same for both parts?

A: Yes. Both parts carry MSL 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions for storage or handling.
