Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the 88947-112 is based on maintaining electrical and mechanical compatibility across the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type & Configuration: Receptacle with female sockets, 96 positions arranged in 4 rows
• Pitch & Spacing: 0.079" (2.00mm) pitch ensures PCB footprint compatibility
• Mounting & Termination: Board edge mounting with through-hole, right-angle orientation and press-fit termination
• Electrical Ratings: 1A current rating and 1000V voltage rating
• Contact Material & Finish: Gold plating at 30.0µin thickness
• Environmental Compliance: UL94 V-0 flammability rating and operating temperature range of -55°C to 105°C

The substitute part 88947-112LF maintains all these parameters while offering improved compliance status and active product availability.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 88947-112LF is the direct substitute for the obsolete 88947-112. Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical across all functional parameters, including connector configuration, pitch, mounting style, contact ratings, and environmental specifications.

The 88947-112LF offers the following advantages:

• Active Product Status: Currently manufactured and supported by Amphenol ICC, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain reliability
• RoHS Compliance: Meets RoHS requirements, supporting modern procurement and environmental standards
• REACH Compliance: Affected by REACH regulations, indicating compliance with current chemical safety requirements
• Packaging: Supplied in tube packaging, suitable for automated assembly processes

For new designs or legacy system replacements, the 88947-112LF is the appropriate selection. The obsolete 88947-112 should be phased out in favor of the active equivalent.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are the 88947-112 and 88947-112LF mechanically interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical mechanical specifications: 96 positions, 0.079" (2.00mm) pitch, 4-row configuration, board edge mounting with right-angle orientation, and press-fit termination. PCB footprints are identical.

Q: Are the electrical ratings the same?

A: Yes. Both parts are rated for 1A current and 1000V voltage, with identical contact finish (gold, 30.0µin thickness) and operating temperature range (-55°C to 105°C).

Q: What is the primary difference between these parts?

A: The 88947-112LF is the active production equivalent of the obsolete 88947-112. The LF variant includes RoHS compliance and is subject to REACH regulations. Packaging differs: the 88947-112LF is supplied in tube format.

Q: Can I use the 88947-112LF as a direct replacement in existing designs?

A: Yes. The 88947-112LF is a direct substitute with no design modifications required. All electrical, mechanical, and environmental specifications are maintained.

Q: Why is the 88947-112 obsolete?

A: The 88947-112 has been superseded by the 88947-112LF, which offers improved compliance status and active manufacturing support.

Q: Are there any compliance considerations when switching from 88947-112 to 88947-112LF?

A: The 88947-112LF is RoHS compliant and REACH affected, making it suitable for applications requiring modern environmental and chemical safety compliance. The original 88947-112 is RoHS non-compliant and REACH unaffected.
