Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 89885-306LF is the direct substitute for the obsolete 89885-306. Both parts are manufactured by Amphenol ICC within the Dubox™ series and maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications.

The primary distinction between these parts is regulatory compliance status. The 89885-306LF carries RoHS Compliant certification, whereas the 89885-306 is RoHS non-compliant. For new designs or applications subject to RoHS requirements, the 89885-306LF is the appropriate selection. For legacy systems or applications without RoHS mandates, either part satisfies the functional requirements.

The 89885-306LF is currently in active production with higher inventory availability (958 pcs vs. 737 pcs), supporting improved supply chain continuity. Packaging differs between the two parts: the 89885-306 is supplied in bulk, while the 89885-306LF is packaged in tubes.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 89885-306LF be used as a direct replacement for the 89885-306?

A: Yes. The 89885-306LF is electrically and mechanically equivalent to the 89885-306. Both connectors feature identical 6-position, 0.100" pitch receptacle configurations with gold mating contacts, tin posts, and push-pull fastening. PCB footprints and mating interfaces are identical.

Q: What is the significance of the "LF" designation in the part number 89885-306LF?

A: The "LF" suffix indicates Lead-Free compliance, which corresponds to the RoHS Compliant status of this part. The 89885-306 (without the LF suffix) is RoHS non-compliant.

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

A: No. Both parts maintain identical contact materials (phosphor bronze), contact finishes (gold mating, tin posts), and flammability ratings (UL94 V-0). Electrical performance is equivalent.

Q: Does packaging differ between the 89885-306 and 89885-306LF?

A: Yes. The 89885-306 is supplied in bulk packaging, while the 89885-306LF is packaged in tubes. This difference does not affect connector functionality or compatibility.

Q: Which part should be selected for new designs?

A: The 89885-306LF is recommended for new designs due to its active product status, RoHS compliance, and higher inventory availability. The 89885-306 is obsolete and should be reserved for legacy system maintenance only.

Q: Are both parts suitable for automotive, industrial, and telecommunications applications?

A: Yes. Both the 89885-306 and 89885-306LF are rated for automotive, general-purpose, industrial, and telecommunications applications with identical environmental and regulatory certifications.
