Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 76384-408 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type & Contact Configuration: Header with male pin contacts
• Position Count & Pitch: 8 positions at 0.100" (2.54mm) mating pitch
• Mounting & Termination: Through-hole solder termination
• Mechanical Form Factor: Shrouded 2-wall construction with square contact shape
• Insulation Material & Flammability: Thermoplastic glass-filled material rated UL94 V-0

The substitute part 76384-408LF maintains identical mechanical and electrical interface specifications, ensuring direct compatibility in applications requiring the 76384-408 footprint and mating characteristics.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 76384-408LF is the direct active substitute for the obsolete 76384-408. Both parts share identical mechanical interfaces, electrical contact configurations, and mounting specifications within the Dubox™ series.

The 76384-408LF offers the following advantages for new designs and ongoing production:

• Active Product Status: Ensures long-term availability and supply chain continuity
• RoHS Compliance: The 76384-408LF is RoHS compliant, whereas the 76384-408 is non-compliant
• REACH Compliance: The 76384-408LF is REACH affected, providing regulatory alignment for international applications
• Contact Finish Specification: The 76384-408LF uses pure tin plating (78.7µin / 2.00µm) compared to the tin-lead finish (150.0µin / 3.81µm) of the main part
• Operating Temperature Range: The 76384-408LF specifies -40°C to 125°C operation
• Current Rating: The 76384-408LF is rated for 3A per contact

For applications currently using the 76384-408, direct substitution with the 76384-408LF is supported without PCB layout or mechanical redesign.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 76384-408LF be used as a direct replacement for the 76384-408?

A: Yes. Both parts maintain identical pitch (0.100" / 2.54mm), position count (8), contact geometry, mounting type (through-hole), and shrouding configuration (2-wall). The mechanical and electrical interfaces are fully compatible.

Q: What is the primary difference between these two parts?

A: The 76384-408 is obsolete with RoHS non-compliant status and tin-lead contact finish. The 76384-408LF is an active product with RoHS compliance, REACH compliance, and tin-based contact finish. Both maintain identical form factor and mating characteristics.

Q: Does the change in contact finish affect performance?

A: The contact finish change from tin-lead to tin does not affect the mechanical mating interface or electrical performance for standard applications. Both finishes provide equivalent contact reliability at the specified current rating.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: The 76384-408 packaging is not specified in the data. The 76384-408LF is supplied in tube packaging.

Q: What is the current rating for these connectors?

A: The 76384-408LF is rated for 3A per contact. The 76384-408 current rating is not specified in the available data.

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

A: The 76384-408LF operates within the range of -40°C to 125°C. Operating temperature specification for the 76384-408 is not provided in the available data.
