Amphenol ICC 69830-024 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Amphenol ICC 69830-024 is a 24-position ribbon cable DIP header connector designed for through-hole mounting applications. This connector features IDC (Insulation Displacement Contact) termination for 26-28 AWG stranded or solid wire, with a 0.050" cable pitch and 0.100" board-side pitch configuration. The part is classified as obsolete, making identification of active equivalent alternatives essential for ongoing production and maintenance applications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The 69830-024LF serves as a direct substitute for the 69830-024 based on the following critical parameters that determine functional equivalence:

• Connector Type & Configuration: Both parts are ribbon cable DIP header connectors with identical 24-position, 2-row configuration
• Pitch Specifications: Cable pitch of 0.050" (1.27mm) and board-side pitch of 0.100" (2.54mm) are identical
• Electrical & Mechanical Interface: Through-hole mounting, IDC termination, and 26-28 AWG wire gauge compatibility are preserved
• Physical Characteristics: Row spacing, feed-through feature, and blue color are maintained
• Environmental Rating: MSL 1 (Unlimited) rating is identical

The primary distinction between these parts is product status and compliance certification, not functional or dimensional parameters.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 69830-024LF is the active production equivalent of the obsolete 69830-024. Selection between these parts should be based on the following criteria:

Use 69830-024LF for new designs and ongoing production due to active product status and RoHS compliance certification. This part meets current regulatory requirements and maintains full functional compatibility with the original 69830-024 across all critical electrical and mechanical parameters.

Contact finish difference: The 69830-024LF uses pure tin contact finish compared to the tin-lead finish of the original part. Both finishes maintain the same 150.0µin (3.81µm) thickness specification and are compatible with standard PCB assembly processes.

Packaging consideration: The 69830-024LF is supplied in tube packaging, which may differ from the original part's packaging specification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 69830-024LF directly replace the 69830-024 in existing assemblies?

A: Yes. The 69830-024LF maintains identical connector type, position count, pitch specifications, mounting configuration, and wire gauge compatibility. All critical electrical and mechanical parameters are preserved.

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

A: The "LF" designation indicates lead-free contact finish (tin instead of tin-lead) and RoHS compliance. This reflects the shift from the original tin-lead formulation to lead-free materials.

Q: Are there any compatibility concerns with the contact finish change?

A: No. Both tin and tin-lead finishes at 150.0µin (3.81µm) thickness are compatible with standard through-hole soldering and PCB assembly processes. The finish thickness specification is identical.

Q: Why is the original 69830-024 marked as obsolete?

A: The part has been superseded by the 69830-024LF, which offers RoHS compliance and active production status. Amphenol ICC maintains the 69830-024LF as the current production equivalent.

Q: Does packaging affect the electrical or mechanical performance?

A: No. Packaging (tube versus other formats) is a logistics consideration only and does not affect connector performance, compatibility, or functionality.

Q: What is the MSL rating and why is it relevant?

A: MSL 1 (Unlimited) indicates that this connector has no moisture sensitivity limitations and requires no special storage or handling precautions. Both the original and substitute part share this rating.
