Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 89947-340LF is the direct substitute for the obsolete 89947-740LF. Selection of the substitute is based on the following factors:

Product Status: The 89947-740LF is obsolete, while the 89947-340LF maintains active product status with current manufacturing support and availability (2053 pcs in stock versus 758 pcs for the obsolete part).

Regulatory Compliance: The 89947-340LF is RoHS Compliant, meeting current environmental regulations. Both parts maintain MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity classification and share identical ECCN and HTSUS codes.

Electrical & Mechanical Equivalence: All critical connector parameters are identical between the two parts, including position count, pitch, row configuration, contact type, termination method, and contact finish specifications. This ensures direct functional interchangeability in existing applications.

Packaging Consideration: The substitute is supplied in Tube packaging, whereas the main part packaging is not specified. This difference does not affect electrical or mechanical performance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 89947-340LF be used as a direct replacement for the 89947-740LF?
