Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 70231-112 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

  • Connector type: Receptacle with female blade sockets
  • Position count: 8 positions
  • Row configuration: 4 rows
  • Mounting configuration: Board edge, through-hole, right-angle orientation
  • Termination method: Solder
  • Contact layout: 8 power configuration
  • Electrical ratings: 3A current, 1000V voltage
  • Operating temperature range: -55°C to 105°C
  • Contact finish specification: Gold, GXT™ at 30.0µin thickness
  • Flammability rating: UL94 V-0

The 70231-112LF maintains identical electrical, mechanical, and environmental specifications as the main part number, with the primary distinction being product status and regulatory compliance classification.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 70231-112LF is a direct functional equivalent to the 70231-112 across all electrical, mechanical, and environmental parameters. The primary distinctions are product lifecycle status and regulatory compliance:

The 70231-112 is obsolete and carries RoHS non-compliant and REACH unaffected designations. The 70231-112LF maintains active product status with RoHS compliance and REACH affected classification, making it suitable for applications requiring current regulatory alignment and long-term component availability.

Selection between these part numbers should be based on regulatory requirements of the end application and supply chain continuity needs. Both connectors are electrically and mechanically interchangeable within the specified operating parameters.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are the 70231-112 and 70231-112LF electrically interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical electrical ratings (3A current, 1000V voltage), operating temperature range (-55°C to 105°C), and contact specifications (Gold, GXT™ finish at 30.0µin thickness).

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

A: There is no functional difference. The primary distinctions are product status (obsolete versus active) and regulatory compliance classifications (RoHS and REACH status).

Q: Can the 70231-112LF be used as a direct replacement in existing designs?

A: Yes. The 70231-112LF maintains identical mechanical mounting (board edge, through-hole, right-angle), connector type (receptacle with female blade sockets), position count (8), and row configuration (4 rows) as the 70231-112.

Q: What packaging is available for the 70231-112LF?

A: The 70231-112LF is supplied in bulk packaging.

Q: Are there any compliance considerations when switching from 70231-112 to 70231-112LF?

A: The 70231-112LF is RoHS compliant and REACH affected, whereas the 70231-112 is RoHS non-compliant and REACH unaffected. Applications subject to RoHS or REACH regulations should use the 70231-112LF.
