Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 89898-316 is determined by strict equivalence across the following parameters:

  • Connector type and entry configuration (Receptacle, Bottom or Top Entry)
  • Position count and row configuration (32 positions, 2 rows)
  • Mating pitch and row spacing (0.100" / 2.54mm)
  • Mounting technology (Surface Mount)
  • Contact configuration (Female Socket)
  • Mating contact finish (Gold plating)
  • Physical envelope (Mated stacking height 10.81mm)
  • Insulation material and flammability rating (Thermoplastic, Glass Filled; UL94 V-0)

The 89898-316LF meets all these criteria and qualifies as a direct substitute. The primary distinction between the main part and its substitute relates to product status and regulatory compliance, not electrical or mechanical function.
