Amphenol ICC 89885-412 Rectangular Connector - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Amphenol ICC 89885-412 is a 12-position receptacle connector with 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch, designed for board-to-board applications using through-hole solder termination. This connector features a push-pull fastening mechanism and is constructed with thermoplastic, glass-filled insulation rated UL94 V-0. The part is currently obsolete, necessitating identification of active equivalent alternatives to maintain design continuity and ensure component availability for new production and field service applications.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the 89885-412 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Connector geometry and mating interface: 12 positions at 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch, receptacle configuration with bottom or top entry capability
Contact system: Female socket contacts with square geometry and phosphor bronze material
Mounting and termination: Through-hole solder termination with push-pull fastening
Insulation specifications: Thermoplastic, glass-filled construction with UL94 V-0 flammability rating
Physical dimensions: Insulation height of 0.335" (8.51mm), contact post length of 0.104" (2.64mm)
Contact finish thickness: 78.7µin (2.00µm) on both mating and post surfaces

The substitute part 89885-412LF maintains identical mechanical and electrical interface characteristics while differing in contact finish composition and regulatory compliance status.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 89885-412LF serves as the direct active equivalent to the obsolete 89885-412. Both connectors maintain identical mechanical and electrical interface specifications, ensuring pin-for-pin compatibility in board-to-board applications.

The primary distinction between these parts is regulatory compliance. The 89885-412LF is RoHS compliant and REACH affected, reflecting current environmental and hazardous substance regulations. The original 89885-412 is RoHS non-compliant and REACH unaffected, indicating its design predates these regulatory frameworks.

Contact finish composition differs between the parts: the 89885-412 uses tin-lead plating, while the 89885-412LF uses tin plating. Both maintain identical finish thickness specifications of 78.7µin (2.00µm). This change aligns with RoHS compliance requirements that restrict lead content in electronic components.

The 89885-412LF is currently in active production with confirmed inventory availability, whereas the 89885-412 is obsolete. For new designs and ongoing production requirements, the 89885-412LF is the appropriate selection.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are the 89885-412 and 89885-412LF mechanically interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical mechanical specifications including 12-position configuration, 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch, through-hole mounting, push-pull fastening, and physical dimensions. They are pin-for-pin compatible for board-to-board applications.

Q: What is the significance of the contact finish difference between tin-lead and tin?

A: The contact finish change from tin-lead to tin reflects RoHS compliance requirements. Both finishes maintain the same thickness specification of 78.7µin (2.00µm) and provide equivalent electrical performance for mating and solder joint formation.

Q: Why is the 89885-412 listed as obsolete?

A: The 89885-412 is obsolete due to its RoHS non-compliant status. Amphenol ICC has transitioned production to the 89885-412LF, which meets current environmental and regulatory standards.

Q: Can the 89885-412LF be used as a direct replacement in existing designs?

A: Yes. The 89885-412LF maintains full electrical and mechanical compatibility with the 89885-412. No design modifications are required for substitution.

Q: What packaging is available for the 89885-412LF?

A: The 89885-412LF is supplied in tube packaging, as specified in the product documentation.

Q: Are there any thermal or electrical performance differences between these connectors?

A: No performance differences exist between the 89885-412 and 89885-412LF. Both are rated for identical applications including automotive, general purpose, industrial, and telecommunications use cases.
