Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The 76382-309LF qualifies as a direct substitute based on matching electrical and mechanical parameters. Substitution criteria are determined by the following parameters, all of which are identical between the main part and substitute:

• Connector type (Header)
• Contact type (Male Pin)
• Number of positions (9)
• Mating pitch (0.100" / 2.54mm)
• Mounting configuration (Through Hole, Right Angle)
• Shrouding design (Shrouded - 4 Wall)
• Contact dimensions (Mating: 0.197" / 5.00mm; Post: 0.134" / 3.40mm)
• Insulation height (0.209" / 5.30mm)
• Current rating (3A)
• Operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 125°C)
• Material flammability (UL94 V-0)
• Contact material (Phosphor Bronze)
• Insulation material (Polyester, Glass Filled)

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 76382-309LF is the direct substitute for the obsolete 76382-309. Both parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters including connector type, position count, pitch, mounting configuration, and current rating.

The primary distinction between the two parts is regulatory compliance. The 76382-309LF is RoHS Compliant, whereas the 76382-309 is RoHS non-compliant. For applications subject to RoHS directives or requiring lead-free component specifications, the 76382-309LF is the appropriate selection. The contact finish post composition differs (Tin-Lead versus Tin), with the 76382-309LF utilizing lead-free termination consistent with RoHS requirements.

The 76382-309LF is currently in active production status with higher inventory availability (1285 pcs versus 702 pcs), supporting long-term component procurement and design continuity.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are the 76382-309 and 76382-309LF mechanically interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical mechanical dimensions, mounting configuration, and contact geometry. The connectors are pin-compatible and footprint-compatible for PCB applications.

Q: What does the "LF" designation indicate?

A: The "LF" suffix denotes lead-free composition, indicating compliance with RoHS directives. The 76382-309LF uses tin-based contact finish on the post termination instead of tin-lead.

Q: Can the 76382-309 be used in new designs?

A: The 76382-309 is listed as obsolete. For new designs, the 76382-309LF is the recommended selection due to active production status and RoHS compliance alignment with current regulatory requirements.

Q: Are there differences in electrical performance between these parts?

A: No. Both parts maintain identical current rating (3A), operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 125°C), and contact material specifications (Phosphor Bronze with gold mating finish).

Q: What is the difference in contact finish thickness?

A: The 76382-309 post finish is 150.0µin (3.81µm) tin-lead, while the 76382-309LF post finish is 78.7µin (2.00µm) tin. Both finishes meet the electrical and mechanical requirements for this connector series.

Q: How does packaging differ between these parts?

A: The 76382-309LF is supplied in tube packaging, whereas packaging information for the 76382-309 is not specified. Tube packaging is standard for active production components.

Q: Are both parts suitable for high-temperature applications?

A: Yes. Both connectors are rated for -40°C ~ 125°C operating temperature and carry UL94 V-0 material flammability rating, supporting thermal requirements across standard industrial and commercial applications.
