Amphenol ICC 95290-305B Rectangular Connector - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Amphenol ICC 95290-305B is a 10-position receptacle connector with 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch, designed for board-to-board applications in surface mount configurations. This connector features gold-plated mating contacts, push-pull fastening, and is rated UL94 V-0 for material flammability. The part is currently listed as obsolete, making identification of suitable substitutes essential for ongoing design support and procurement.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The 95290-305BLF qualifies as a direct substitute for the 95290-305B based on identical electrical and mechanical parameters. Substitution is valid when the following criteria are met:

Connector type: Receptacle, Bottom or Top Entry
Position count: 10 positions
Mating pitch: 0.100" (2.54mm)
Row configuration: 2 rows with 0.100" (2.54mm) row spacing
Mounting method: Surface Mount
Contact configuration: Female Socket with gold mating finish at 30.0µin (0.76µm) thickness
Fastening mechanism: Push-Pull
Insulation material: PCT, Glass Filled with UL94 V-0 rating
Series designation: Dubox™

The substitute part maintains all critical dimensional and electrical interface specifications required for board-to-board connectivity in the same application context.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 95290-305BLF is the direct substitute for the obsolete 95290-305B. Both parts are manufactured by Amphenol ICC within the Dubox™ series and maintain identical mechanical and electrical interface specifications.

The primary distinction between the two parts is product status and regulatory compliance. The 95290-305B is obsolete and RoHS non-compliant, while the 95290-305BLF is active and RoHS Compliant. For new designs or ongoing production requiring regulatory compliance with RoHS directives, the 95290-305BLF is the appropriate selection. Both parts share identical contact geometry, pitch, row spacing, mounting configuration, and material flammability rating (UL94 V-0).

Packaging differs between the two parts: the main part is supplied in bulk, while the substitute is supplied in tube packaging. This distinction affects handling and storage procedures but does not impact functional compatibility.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 95290-305BLF directly replace the 95290-305B in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both connectors maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications, including 10-position configuration, 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch, 2-row layout, surface mount termination, gold-plated contacts, and push-pull fastening. The connectors are mechanically and electrically interchangeable.

Q: What is the significance of the RoHS compliance difference?

A: The 95290-305B is RoHS non-compliant, while the 95290-305BLF is RoHS Compliant. For applications subject to RoHS directives or customer requirements mandating RoHS compliance, the 95290-305BLF must be used. Both parts are otherwise identical in construction and performance.

Q: Does the packaging difference (bulk vs. tube) affect compatibility?

A: No. Packaging affects only handling, storage, and logistics. The connector itself is identical regardless of packaging format. Tube packaging provides organized component management, while bulk packaging is typically used for high-volume applications.

Q: Are there any performance differences between these two parts?

A: No. Both parts are manufactured to identical specifications with the same contact materials (Phosphor Bronze), contact finish (Gold at 30.0µin thickness), insulation material (PCT, Glass Filled), and flammability rating (UL94 V-0). Performance characteristics are equivalent.

Q: Why is the 95290-305B listed as obsolete?

A: The 95290-305B has been superseded by the 95290-305BLF, which offers improved regulatory compliance (RoHS Compliant) while maintaining all functional specifications. The newer part is the active production variant within the Dubox™ series.
