Amphenol ICC 89950-006LF Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Amphenol ICC 89950-006LF is a 44-position rectangular receptacle connector with IDC (Insulation Displacement Contact) termination for 28 AWG ribbon cable. This connector is part of the Minitek® MezzSelect™ series and features gold-plated female socket contacts with feed-through capability. The part is currently active in production with RoHS compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters are required for design flexibility, inventory management, or supply chain continuity.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 89950-006LF is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters: connector type (receptacle), contact type (female socket), position count (44), pitch (0.079"/2.00mm), row configuration (2 rows at 0.079" spacing), cable termination method (IDC), wire gauge (28 AWG), and contact finish (gold). The identified substitute parts—3M 152244-0100-GB and 3M 152244-0110-GB—meet all these core electrical and mechanical requirements. Both 3M parts maintain identical position, pitch, row spacing, wire gauge, and termination specifications. The primary distinction between the two 3M substitutes is the presence of a polarizing key feature in the 152244-0110-GB variant, which provides additional mechanical guidance during mating.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three parts maintain active production status with full regulatory compliance. The Amphenol ICC 89950-006LF carries RoHS compliance and is REACH Affected. Both 3M substitutes (152244-0100-GB and 152244-0110-GB) are ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected, offering enhanced regulatory positioning for applications with strict material restriction requirements. The 3M parts feature increased contact finish thickness (30.0µin versus 2.00µin), which may provide extended contact durability in high-cycle mating applications. Selection between the two 3M options depends on mechanical design requirements: the 152244-0100-GB provides basic feed-through functionality, while the 152244-0110-GB includes a polarizing key for keyed mating applications. All parts share identical electrical and mechanical core specifications, ensuring functional interchangeability within the specified parameter set.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are the 3M 152244-0100-GB and 152244-0110-GB fully interchangeable with the Amphenol ICC 89950-006LF?

A: Both 3M parts are electrically and mechanically equivalent to the 89950-006LF across all critical parameters: 44 positions, 0.079" pitch, 2-row configuration, IDC termination, 28 AWG wire gauge, and gold contact finish. Physical interchangeability depends on mating connector design. The 152244-0110-GB includes a polarizing key feature absent in the 89950-006LF and 152244-0100-GB, which may affect mechanical fit in keyed versus non-keyed applications.

Q: What is the difference between the two 3M substitute parts?

A: The primary difference is the polarizing key feature in the 152244-0110-GB, which provides mechanical guidance during mating. Both parts are otherwise identical in electrical specifications, pitch, position count, and termination method. The 152244-0100-GB is suitable for non-keyed applications, while the 152244-0110-GB is specified for keyed mating designs.

Q: Do the substitute parts have different compliance certifications?

A: Yes. The Amphenol ICC 89950-006LF is RoHS Compliant and REACH Affected. Both 3M substitutes are ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected, offering improved regulatory status for applications with strict material restriction requirements.

Q: What is the significance of the contact finish thickness difference?

A: The Amphenol ICC part has 2.00µin contact finish thickness, while both 3M substitutes have 30.0µin thickness. The thicker gold plating on the 3M parts may provide enhanced contact durability and extended service life in high-cycle mating environments.

Q: Can these connectors be used with different wire gauges?

A: No. All three parts are specified for 28 AWG ribbon cable only. Wire gauge is a critical parameter for IDC contact engagement and electrical performance.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: All three parts are supplied in bulk packaging. Inventory availability differs: Amphenol ICC 89950-006LF has 925 pcs in stock, 3M 152244-0100-GB has 1494 pcs, and 3M 152244-0110-GB has 1933 pcs.
