Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 95293-101-02LF is determined by the following critical parameters that must match or exceed the original specification:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Connector Type: Header, Breakaway
• Contact Type: Male Pin
• Pitch - Mating: 0.100" (2.54mm)
• Number of Positions: 2
• Number of Rows: 1
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount
• Termination: Solder
• Contact Length - Mating: 0.230" (5.84mm)
• Insulation Height: 0.100" (2.54mm)
• Contact Shape: Square
• Contact Material: Phosphor Bronze
• Current Rating: 3A
• Material Flammability Rating: UL94 V-0
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)

Allowable Variations:

• Operating Temperature: Substitute may exceed the minimum requirement (-65°C ~ 150°C is acceptable)
• Contact Finish - Mating: Gold or Tin finishes are acceptable
• Insulation Material: Thermoplastic or Polyamide (PA9T) / Nylon 9T are acceptable
• RoHS Status: Both RoHS Compliant and ROHS3 Compliant are acceptable
• REACH Status: Both REACH Affected and REACH Unaffected are acceptable

The substitute parts GBC02SABN-M30 and GEC02SABN-M30 from Sullins Connector Solutions meet all mandatory parameters and fall within allowable variations.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both GBC02SABN-M30 and GEC02SABN-M30 are qualified substitutes for the 95293-101-02LF based on compliance and certification alignment.

GBC02SABN-M30 (Sullins Connector Solutions):

• ROHS3 Compliant status provides enhanced regulatory coverage
• Gold contact finish on mating surface maintains signal integrity characteristics similar to the original GXT™ finish
• Extended operating temperature range (-65°C ~ 150°C) exceeds original specification
• Polyamide (PA9T) insulation material provides thermal stability equivalent to thermoplastic
• 2059 units in stock provide adequate supply availability

GEC02SABN-M30 (Sullins Connector Solutions):

• ROHS3 Compliant status provides enhanced regulatory coverage
• Tin contact finish on mating surface is functionally equivalent for standard applications
• Extended operating temperature range (-65°C ~ 150°C) exceeds original specification
• Polyamide (PA9T) insulation material provides thermal stability equivalent to thermoplastic
• 26145 units in stock provide superior supply availability and lead time assurance

Both parts maintain UL94 V-0 flammability rating, MSL 1 moisture sensitivity, and 3A current rating specifications. Selection between the two substitutes should be based on contact finish requirements for the specific application and inventory availability needs.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can GBC02SABN-M30 and GEC02SABN-M30 be used interchangeably with 95293-101-02LF?

A: Both Sullins parts are functionally equivalent substitutes. The primary difference is the contact finish on the mating surface: GBC02SABN-M30 features gold finish while GEC02SABN-M30 features tin finish. Both finishes are acceptable for standard board-to-board applications at the 3A current rating. Selection depends on application-specific contact resistance and corrosion requirements.

Q: What is the impact of the different contact finish thicknesses?

A: The original 95293-101-02LF specifies 30.0µin (0.76µm) gold finish thickness. GBC02SABN-M30 provides 10.0µin (0.25µm) gold finish, while GEC02SABN-M30 provides 100.0µin (2.54µm) tin finish. All three finishes meet the 3A current rating and UL94 V-0 flammability requirements. Thicker finishes provide extended contact life in high-cycle mating applications.

Q: Are there insulation material compatibility concerns?

A: The original part uses thermoplastic insulation while both substitutes use Polyamide (PA9T) / Nylon 9T. Both materials achieve UL94 V-0 flammability rating and support the -65°C ~ 130°C operating range of the original specification. The substitute materials actually extend the upper temperature limit to 150°C, providing enhanced thermal margin.

Q: What is the significance of ROHS3 compliance on the substitute parts?

A: ROHS3 Compliant status indicates compliance with the latest Restriction of Hazardous Substances directive. Both substitute parts meet this enhanced standard, while the original part is listed as RoHS Compliant. This represents regulatory advancement and does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility.

Q: How do the moisture sensitivity levels compare?

A: All three parts are rated MSL 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions. Storage and handling requirements are identical across all three part numbers.

Q: Which substitute should be selected for maximum supply availability?

A: GEC02SABN-M30 provides 26145 units in stock compared to 2059 units for GBC02SABN-M30, offering superior lead time assurance and supply chain flexibility. This part is recommended when inventory availability is a primary selection criterion.
