Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the 67230-010LF is based on the following critical parameters that must remain consistent:

• Connector Type & Contact Configuration: Receptacle with female socket contacts
• Position Count & Pitch: 10 positions at 0.100" (2.54mm) mating pitch
• Mounting & Termination: Through-hole solder termination with push-pull fastening
• Mating Contact Finish: Gold plating on mating surfaces
• Series Compatibility: Dubox™ series connectors

The substitute part 68685-310LF maintains these core electrical and mechanical parameters, ensuring functional compatibility in applications originally designed for the 67230-010LF.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 68685-310LF is the manufacturer-recommended substitute for the obsolete 67230-010LF. Both connectors maintain identical core specifications for connector type, position count, pitch, and mating contact finish. The substitute part carries active product status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity.

Both parts meet identical compliance requirements: RoHS compliant, REACH affected, and classified under ECCN EAR99. Both achieve UL94 V-0 flammability rating and carry MSL 1 (unlimited moisture sensitivity level).

The 68685-310LF is available in higher inventory quantities (1179 pcs) compared to the 67230-010LF (839 pcs), supporting both new production and replacement applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 68685-310LF directly replace the 67230-010LF in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical specifications for position count (10), mating pitch (0.100"), contact type (female socket receptacle), termination method (solder), and fastening type (push-pull). The mating contact finish (gold at 30.0µin thickness) is identical.

Q: What is the difference in mounting orientation between these parts?

A: The 67230-010LF specifies "Through Hole, Right Angle" mounting, while the 68685-310LF specifies "Through Hole" mounting. Verify PCB layout compatibility with the specific mounting configuration required for your application.

Q: Are there differences in insulation material or height?

A: Yes. The 67230-010LF uses thermoplastic polyester with glass filling and has an insulation height of 0.142" (3.60mm). The 68685-310LF uses polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) with an insulation height of 0.276" (7.00mm). Confirm PCB clearance and mechanical fit for your specific application.

Q: What is the difference in contact material?

A: The 67230-010LF uses brass alloy contacts, while the 68685-310LF uses phosphor bronze contacts. Both materials are suitable for the specified 0.100" pitch and solder termination.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both the 67230-010LF and 68685-310LF are RoHS compliant and carry identical REACH and ECCN classifications.

Q: What packaging is available for the substitute part?

A: The 68685-310LF is supplied in tube packaging.
