Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the 93696-334 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type & Style: Receptacle, bottom or top entry, board-to-board configuration
• Contact Configuration: 68 positions, 2 rows, female socket contacts
• Pitch Specification: 0.100" (2.54mm) mating pitch and row spacing
• Termination & Mounting: Through-hole solder termination
• Fastening Mechanism: Push-pull fastening system
• Contact Finish: Gold mating surface with tin post finish
• Insulation Properties: Gray thermoplastic, glass-filled insulation with UL94 V-0 rating
• Series Compatibility: Dubox™ series

The substitute part 93696-334LF maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all these parameters, with the primary distinction being product status (active vs. obsolete) and regulatory compliance posture.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 93696-334LF serves as the direct active-production substitute for the obsolete 93696-334. Both connectors are electrically and mechanically identical across all specified parameters, ensuring functional interchangeability in board-to-board applications.

The primary distinction between these parts is regulatory and availability status. The 93696-334LF is RoHS Compliant and REACH Affected, reflecting current environmental and hazardous substance regulations. The original 93696-334 is RoHS non-compliant and REACH Unaffected. For new designs or ongoing procurement where regulatory compliance is required, the 93696-334LF is the appropriate selection.

The 93696-334LF is supplied in tube packaging and maintains active inventory status, ensuring reliable component availability for production and service applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are the 93696-334 and 93696-334LF mechanically interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical mechanical specifications including 68 positions, 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch, through-hole mounting, and push-pull fastening. They are direct mechanical substitutes.

Q: Are the 93696-334 and 93696-334LF electrically interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both connectors feature identical contact materials (phosphor bronze), contact finishes (gold mating, tin post), and electrical properties. They are direct electrical substitutes.

Q: What is the difference between these two part numbers?

A: The 93696-334LF is the active-production variant with RoHS compliance and REACH applicability. The 93696-334 is the obsolete variant without these regulatory designations. The "LF" suffix typically indicates lead-free or compliance-oriented variants in Amphenol ICC nomenclature.

Q: Can I use 93696-334LF as a replacement for 93696-334 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The 93696-334LF is functionally equivalent and maintains all electrical and mechanical specifications. It is suitable for retrofit and replacement applications.

Q: What packaging is available for the 93696-334LF?

A: The 93696-334LF is supplied in tube packaging, as specified by the manufacturer.

Q: Are there any other substitutes for the 93696-334?

A: Based on the provided data, the 93696-334LF is the identified substitute. Other potential alternatives would require equivalent specifications across all critical parameters: 68-position, 0.100" pitch, receptacle, female socket, board-to-board, through-hole, push-pull fastening, and Dubox™ series compatibility.
