Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the 50006-1180G is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Connector Position Count: 180 positions (non-negotiable)
• Pitch Specification: 0.100" (2.54mm) center-to-center spacing
• Physical Configuration: 3 rows × 60 columns arrangement
• Connector Type & Gender: Header with male pins
• Mounting Technology: Through-hole press-fit termination
• Contact Material & Finish: Gold plating at 30.0µin (0.76µm) thickness
• Housing Color: Black
• Flammability Compliance: UL94 V-0 rating
• Series Designation: HPC™ series

The primary substitute identified is the 50006-1180GLF, which maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications while offering active product status and improved compliance posture.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 50006-1180GLF serves as the direct functional equivalent to the obsolete 50006-1180G. Both components share identical electrical and mechanical specifications, ensuring pin-for-pin compatibility in existing PCB designs. The substitute part offers two significant advantages:

Product Status: The 50006-1180GLF maintains active product status with Amphenol ICC, ensuring continued availability and manufacturing support. The original 50006-1180G is obsolete and subject to supply discontinuation.

Regulatory Compliance: The 50006-1180GLF is RoHS compliant, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements for electronic component manufacturing. The original part is RoHS non-compliant, which may present procurement and deployment restrictions in regulated applications.

Both parts carry identical certifications (UL94 V-0, MSL 1) and maintain the same contact finish specifications, ensuring electrical performance equivalence in high-density backplane applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are the 50006-1180G and 50006-1180GLF mechanically interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both components feature identical position counts (180), pitch spacing (0.100"), row/column configuration (3×60), mounting type (through-hole), and termination method (press-fit). PCB footprints designed for either part are directly compatible.

Q: What is the significance of the "GLF" suffix in the part number?

A: The "GLF" suffix indicates RoHS compliance and active product status within the Amphenol ICC HPC™ series. The original "G" designation identifies an obsolete variant without RoHS compliance.

Q: Can the 50006-1180GLF be used as a direct replacement in legacy systems?

A: Yes. The substitute part maintains all electrical and mechanical specifications of the original. No design modifications or PCB rework are required for substitution.

Q: What inventory considerations apply to these parts?

A: The original 50006-1180G has 735 units in stock but is obsolete. The 50006-1180GLF has 1062 units available and maintains active product status, making it the preferred selection for new procurements and long-term system support.

Q: Are there any performance differences between these connectors?

A: No performance differences exist. Both parts are manufactured by Amphenol ICC within the HPC™ series and share identical contact finish specifications (gold, 30.0µin thickness), flammability ratings (UL94 V-0), and moisture sensitivity levels (MSL 1).
