Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The 89947-720LF serves as the active equivalent to the obsolete 89947-320LF. Substitution is valid based on the following critical parameters that remain identical across both parts:

• Connector type: Receptacle
• Number of positions: 20
• Pitch and row spacing: 0.079" (2.00mm)
• Contact type: Female socket
• Wire gauge: 28 AWG
• Cable termination method: IDC
• Contact finish: Gold at 30.0µin (0.76µm)
• Series designation: Minitek® 2.00mm

The primary differences between the main part and substitute are product status (active vs. obsolete), packaging format (tube vs. unspecified), fastening type (friction lock vs. unspecified), and compliance certifications (RoHS compliant and REACH affected vs. REACH unaffected).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 89947-720LF is the direct active replacement for the obsolete 89947-320LF. Both connectors maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications within the Minitek® 2.00mm series, ensuring functional compatibility in ribbon cable IDC applications.

The substitute part offers improved compliance status: it is RoHS compliant and REACH affected, compared to the main part's REACH unaffected designation. This makes the 89947-720LF suitable for applications requiring current regulatory compliance. The substitute is packaged in tube format and includes friction lock fastening, providing enhanced mechanical retention compared to the main part's free-hanging configuration.

Current inventory availability favors the substitute: 2029 pieces of the 89947-720LF are in stock versus 752 pieces of the obsolete 89947-320LF.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 89947-720LF directly replace the 89947-320LF in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical pitch (2.00mm), position count (20), contact type (female socket), wire gauge (28 AWG), and IDC termination specifications. Mechanical and electrical compatibility is maintained.

Q: What is the difference in fastening between these two parts?

A: The main part (89947-320LF) is configured as free hanging (in-line), while the substitute (89947-720LF) includes friction lock fastening. This provides additional mechanical retention in the substitute variant.

Q: Are there compliance differences between the two parts?

A: Yes. The 89947-720LF is RoHS compliant and REACH affected, while the 89947-320LF is REACH unaffected. Both maintain identical moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1) and ECCN classification (EAR99).

Q: What packaging format is used for the substitute part?

A: The 89947-720LF is supplied in tube packaging, compared to the main part's unspecified packaging format.

Q: Why is the main part listed as obsolete?

A: The 89947-320LF is classified as obsolete by the manufacturer. The 89947-720LF represents the active product line continuation within the Minitek® 2.00mm series.
