Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The 69167-115HLF is a direct substitute for the 69167-115 based on identical electrical and mechanical parameters. Both parts share the same core specifications:

• 15-position single-row configuration at 2.54mm pitch
• Shrouded 2-wall header design with friction lock fastening
• Through-hole solder termination
• Gold-plated phosphor bronze contacts
• UL94 V-0 flammability rating
• Mini-PV™ and Basics+ series designation

The primary distinction between these parts is regulatory compliance status. The 69167-115HLF carries RoHS Compliant certification, while the 69167-115 is RoHS non-compliant. Both parts are REACH Affected and classified under ECCN EAR99.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Selection between 69167-115 and 69167-115HLF depends on regulatory compliance requirements:

69167-115HLF is the appropriate choice for applications requiring RoHS compliance. This part meets the Restriction of Hazardous Substances directive and is suitable for consumer electronics, medical devices, and industrial applications subject to RoHS regulations. Higher inventory availability (1172 units) supports consistent supply.

69167-115 is suitable for applications where RoHS compliance is not mandated. Both parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical performance, UL94 V-0 flammability certification, and MSL 1 moisture sensitivity rating.

Both parts are REACH Affected and classified as EAR99 for export control purposes. Selection should align with end-application regulatory requirements and supply chain constraints.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are 69167-115 and 69167-115HLF mechanically interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both parts are identical in physical dimensions, pin configuration, pitch, shrouding design, and mounting method. They can be used interchangeably in board layouts and mechanical assemblies.

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

A: The primary difference is RoHS compliance status. The 69167-115HLF is RoHS Compliant, while the 69167-115 is RoHS non-compliant. All other electrical and mechanical specifications are identical.

Q: Which part should I specify for a new design?

A: Specify 69167-115HLF if your application or market requires RoHS compliance. Specify 69167-115 only if RoHS compliance is explicitly not required and the non-compliant version is acceptable for your end use.

Q: Are there any performance differences between these parts?

A: No. Both parts feature identical contact materials (phosphor bronze), contact finishes (gold-plated), fastening mechanisms (friction lock), and flammability ratings (UL94 V-0). Electrical and thermal performance are equivalent.

Q: What does MSL 1 (Unlimited) mean for these connectors?

A: MSL 1 indicates the lowest moisture sensitivity level. These connectors have unlimited shelf life under normal storage conditions and do not require special moisture-controlled storage or baking procedures prior to soldering.

Q: Can I substitute one part for the other in existing inventory?

A: Yes, provided your application permits the compliance status change. If switching from 69167-115 to 69167-115HLF, no design or assembly modifications are required. If switching from 69167-115HLF to 69167-115, verify that RoHS non-compliance is acceptable for your application.
