Engineering Selection Recommendations

The DF17(3.0)-60DS-0.5V(57) is a direct functional equivalent for the obsolete 60RF-JMCS-G-1-TF(N)(LF)(SN). Both components share identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters: 60-position configuration, 0.50mm pitch, dual-row layout, surface mount technology, and gold contact finish.

The Hirose part carries active product status with established manufacturing continuity and supply availability (1417 pcs in stock). Both components maintain ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating, ensuring compatibility with standard manufacturing and storage protocols.

The height above board differential of 0.008" (0.20mm) between the two parts falls within typical PCB design tolerances for connector receptacles and does not constitute a functional incompatibility.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the DF17(3.0)-60DS-0.5V(57) be used as a direct replacement for the 60RF-JMCS-G-1-TF(N)(LF)(SN)?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical position count, pitch, row configuration, mounting type, and contact finish. The components are mechanically and electrically compatible for applications requiring 60-position, 0.50mm pitch surface mount receptacles with gold contacts.

Q: What is the significance of the height above board difference?

A: The DF17(3.0)-60DS-0.5V(57) measures 0.138" (4.60mm) versus 0.130" (3.30mm) for the JST part. This 0.008" (0.20mm) variance is within standard PCB design clearance tolerances and does not affect functional compatibility or mating performance.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both the 60RF-JMCS-G-1-TF(N)(LF)(SN) and DF17(3.0)-60DS-0.5V(57) are ROHS3 compliant and carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity ratings.

Q: What packaging options are available for the substitute part?

A: The DF17(3.0)-60DS-0.5V(57) is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging, suitable for automated assembly processes.

Q: Why is the JST part listed as obsolete?

A: Obsolete status indicates the manufacturer has discontinued active production. The Hirose equivalent remains in active production with current supply chain support.
