Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are the 84621-101 and 84621-101LF mechanically interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both parts are 30-position shrouds for male pins with 0.079" (2.00mm) pitch, 5-row configuration, and through-hole mounting. They are identical in form, fit, and function within the Metral® 2000 series.

Q: What is the significance of the "LF" suffix in the 84621-101LF part number?

A: The "LF" designation indicates RoHS compliance. The 84621-101LF meets RoHS requirements, whereas the original 84621-101 does not.

Q: Can the 84621-101 be used in new designs?

A: The 84621-101 is classified as obsolete. New designs should specify the 84621-101LF to ensure long-term component availability and compliance with current regulatory standards.

Q: What is the packaging difference between these parts?

A: The 84621-101 is supplied in standard packaging, while the 84621-101LF is supplied in bulk packaging.

Q: Are there any electrical performance differences between these substitutes?

A: No. Both parts maintain identical electrical specifications, including connector type, position count, pitch, and row configuration.

Q: What is the moisture sensitivity level for these connectors?

A: Both parts have a Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) of 1, indicating unlimited shelf life without moisture control requirements.
