Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the 89361-316LF is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Connector type (Receptacle)
• Contact type (Female Socket)
• Position count (16)
• Pitch and row spacing (0.079" / 2.00mm)
• Cable termination method (IDC)
• Wire gauge compatibility (28 AWG)
• Contact finish specification (Gold, 8.00µin thickness)
• Mechanical features (Feed Through, Polarizing Key)
• Series designation (Minitek® 2.00mm)

The substitute part 89361-716LF maintains full electrical and mechanical compatibility across all these parameters while offering improved product status and compliance certifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 89361-716LF is the direct active equivalent for the obsolete 89361-316LF. Selection of the substitute part is based on the following engineering criteria:

Product Status: The 89361-316LF is classified as obsolete, while the 89361-716LF maintains active product status with current manufacturing support and availability.

Compliance & Certifications: The 89361-716LF is RoHS Compliant, providing regulatory alignment with current environmental standards. Both parts maintain MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity classification and EAR99 export control designation.

Electrical & Mechanical Equivalence: All critical parameters—connector type, contact configuration, position count, pitch, termination method, and contact finish—are identical between the two parts, ensuring direct functional interchangeability in existing designs.

Packaging Consideration: The 89361-716LF is supplied in bulk packaging, whereas the main part packaging specification is not provided. Verify packaging requirements for your procurement process.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 89361-716LF be used as a direct replacement for the 89361-316LF?

A: Yes. Both parts are identical in connector type, contact configuration, position count, pitch, row spacing, cable termination method, wire gauge, contact finish, and mechanical features. The 89361-716LF is the active equivalent with current manufacturing support.

Q: What is the difference between these two part numbers?

A: The primary difference is product status. The 89361-316LF is obsolete, while the 89361-716LF is active. The 89361-716LF also includes RoHS Compliance certification and friction lock fastening, whereas the main part does not specify these attributes.

Q: Are there any electrical performance differences?

A: No. Both parts maintain identical electrical specifications: 16-position receptacle configuration, 0.079" (2.00mm) pitch, gold contact finish at 8.00µin thickness, and 28 AWG ribbon cable termination via IDC method.

Q: What does IDC termination mean?

A: IDC (Insulation Displacement Contact) termination allows ribbon cable to be inserted directly into the connector without stripping insulation. The connector's contacts pierce the cable insulation to establish electrical connection.

Q: Are both parts compatible with the same mating connector?

A: Yes. Both receptacle connectors are part of the Minitek® 2.00mm series with identical pitch and row spacing, ensuring compatibility with the same mating plug connectors.

Q: What is the significance of the polarizing key feature?

A: The polarizing key prevents incorrect mating orientation, ensuring the connector can only be inserted in the correct position. This feature is present on both the main part and substitute.

Q: Does packaging affect electrical or mechanical performance?

A: No. Packaging (bulk versus other formats) affects only procurement and handling logistics, not connector performance or compatibility.
