Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 50006-1120C is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type and Style: Header with male pins in high-density configuration (HPC™ series)
• Position Count and Layout: 120 positions arranged in 3 rows × 40 columns
• Pitch Specification: 0.100" (2.54mm) center-to-center spacing
• Mounting and Termination: Through-hole mounting with press-fit termination
• Contact Properties: Gold finish at 30.0µin (0.76µm) thickness
• Physical Characteristics: Black color with mating guide feature
• Electrical and Environmental Ratings: UL94 V-0 flammability rating

The substitute part 50006-1120CLF maintains identical electrical, mechanical, and dimensional specifications to the main part. The primary distinction is product status: the substitute is active and RoHS compliant, whereas the main part is obsolete and RoHS non-compliant.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 50006-1120CLF is the direct equivalent substitute for the obsolete 50006-1120C. Both parts are manufactured by Amphenol ICC within the HPC™ series and share identical mechanical, electrical, and dimensional specifications. The substitute part is currently in active production status, ensuring supply chain continuity.

For new designs and production applications, the 50006-1120CLF is the appropriate selection. This part carries RoHS compliance certification, whereas the main part does not. For legacy systems currently using the 50006-1120C, the 50006-1120CLF provides direct functional replacement without design modification, as all critical parameters remain unchanged.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 50006-1120CLF be used as a direct replacement for the 50006-1120C in existing designs?

A: Yes. The 50006-1120CLF is mechanically and electrically identical to the 50006-1120C. All connector dimensions, pin counts, pitch specifications, mounting methods, and contact properties are equivalent. No PCB layout or mating connector modifications are required.

Q: What is the significance of the "LF" suffix in the part number 50006-1120CLF?

A: The "LF" designation indicates lead-free and RoHS-compliant manufacturing. This reflects the material composition and regulatory compliance status of the part, distinguishing it from the non-compliant 50006-1120C.

Q: Are there any compatibility concerns when substituting the 50006-1120CLF for the 50006-1120C?

A: No compatibility concerns exist. Both parts conform to the same electrical and mechanical specifications. Mating connectors, PCB footprints, and system integration remain unchanged.

Q: Why is the 50006-1120C listed as obsolete?

A: The 50006-1120C has been superseded by the 50006-1120CLF in the manufacturer's product line. The substitute part offers improved regulatory compliance through RoHS certification while maintaining full functional equivalence.

Q: What is the inventory status of these parts?

A: The 50006-1120C has 975 pieces available as new original stock. The 50006-1120CLF has 828 pieces available as new original stock. Both are currently in inventory.
