Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The 89898-312LF qualifies as a direct substitute based on identical electrical and mechanical parameters. Substitution is valid when the following criteria are met:

• Connector type: Receptacle, Bottom or Top Entry
• Position count: 24 positions
• Pitch specification: 0.100" (2.54mm) mating pitch
• Row configuration: 2 rows with 0.100" (2.54mm) row spacing
• Mounting technology: Surface Mount
• Contact configuration: Female Socket with gold mating finish
• Fastening mechanism: Push-Pull
• Insulation material: Thermoplastic, Glass Filled
• Flammability rating: UL94 V-0
• Mated stacking height: 10.81mm

The primary distinction between the main part and substitute is product status and RoHS compliance, not functional or mechanical compatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 89898-312LF is the direct substitute for the obsolete 89898-312. Both parts share identical electrical and mechanical specifications, including connector geometry, contact configuration, pitch, and flammability rating. The 89898-312LF offers the advantage of active product status and RoHS compliance, making it the preferred selection for new designs and ongoing production requirements. The higher inventory availability of the 89898-312LF (1535 units versus 859 units) supports supply chain continuity.
