Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 89099-150 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Connector type and style (Header, Male Blades, Blade Power configuration)
• Position count and row configuration (10 positions, 5 rows)
• Pitch specification (0.236" / 6.00mm)
• Mounting method (Through Hole)
• Termination technology (Press-Fit)
• Contact material and finish (Gold plating at 30.0µin minimum)
• Current rating (3A minimum)
• Operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C minimum)
• Flammability compliance (UL94 V-0)
• Series compatibility (Metral®)

The 89099-150LF meets all substitution criteria as a direct equivalent within the Metral® series, with the distinction of active product status and RoHS compliance certification.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 89099-150LF is the direct substitute for the obsolete 89099-150. Both components share identical electrical and mechanical specifications, including connector geometry, contact configuration, current capacity, and temperature rating. The 89099-150LF maintains full compatibility with existing PCB designs and assembly processes.

The primary distinction between the two parts is product lifecycle status: the 89099-150LF is actively manufactured and carries RoHS compliance certification, whereas the 89099-150 is obsolete. For new designs or ongoing production requiring this connector type, the 89099-150LF is the appropriate selection to ensure long-term supply availability and regulatory compliance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 89099-150LF be used as a direct replacement for the 89099-150 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The 89099-150LF is electrically and mechanically equivalent to the 89099-150. Both components feature identical pitch, position count, row configuration, contact finish, current rating, and operating temperature range. PCB footprints and assembly processes require no modification.

Q: What is the significance of the "LF" designation in the 89099-150LF part number?

A: The "LF" suffix indicates lead-free termination and RoHS compliance. This designation reflects the component's compliance with the Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive.

Q: Are there packaging differences between the 89099-150 and 89099-150LF?

A: The 89099-150LF is supplied in tube packaging. The original 89099-150 packaging specification is not provided in the technical data. Confirm packaging requirements with your procurement process.

Q: Why is the 89099-150 classified as obsolete?

A: The 89099-150 has been superseded by the 89099-150LF within the Amphenol ICC product portfolio. The 89099-150LF provides equivalent functionality with active manufacturing support and regulatory compliance certifications.

Q: Are the electrical performance characteristics identical between these two parts?

A: Yes. Both components are rated for 3A continuous current, operate across -55°C to 125°C, feature gold-plated contacts at 30.0µin thickness, and meet UL94 V-0 flammability requirements.
