Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the 95293-401-16 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Connector type: Header, Breakaway
• Contact type: Male Pin
• Number of positions: 16
• Pitch: 0.100" (2.54mm)
• Mounting type: Surface Mount
• Termination method: Solder
• Contact material: Phosphor Bronze
• Insulation material: Thermoplastic
• Flammability rating: UL94 V-0

The substitute part 95293-401-16LF maintains all these core parameters, ensuring mechanical and electrical compatibility. Differences in contact finish specifications and RoHS compliance status do not affect functional interchangeability for the stated application.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 95293-401-16LF is the direct substitute for the obsolete 95293-401-16. Both parts share identical mechanical and electrical interface specifications, ensuring drop-in compatibility in existing designs.

Key considerations for component selection:

• The substitute part is in active production status, providing long-term availability and supply chain stability compared to the obsolete main part.
• The 95293-401-16LF is RoHS compliant, meeting current regulatory requirements for new designs and manufacturing processes.
• Contact finish differences (Tin-Lead versus Tin) reflect modern lead-free manufacturing standards. The thinner tin finish on the substitute part (78.7µin versus 150.0µin) is within industry standards for equivalent electrical and mechanical performance.
• Operating temperature range (-65°C ~ 130°C) and current rating (3A) are specified for the substitute part, providing defined performance parameters for circuit design validation.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 95293-401-16LF be used as a direct replacement for the 95293-401-16?

A: Yes. Both parts maintain identical pitch (0.100"), position count (16), contact type (male pin), mounting method (surface mount), and termination (solder). Mechanical and electrical interfaces are equivalent.

Q: What is the difference between the contact finishes?

A: The main part uses Tin-Lead finish at 150.0µin thickness, while the substitute uses Tin finish at 78.7µin thickness. This reflects the transition to lead-free manufacturing. Both finishes provide equivalent contact resistance and durability for the specified application.

Q: Does the RoHS compliance difference affect compatibility?

A: No. RoHS compliance is a manufacturing and regulatory attribute, not a functional parameter. The substitute part's RoHS compliance status makes it suitable for applications requiring regulatory adherence, while maintaining full electrical and mechanical compatibility.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: The main part packaging is not specified in available data. The substitute part is supplied in bulk packaging. Confirm packaging requirements with your procurement specifications.

Q: What operating conditions should be considered?

A: The substitute part is rated for -65°C to 130°C operating temperature with a 3A current rating per position. Verify these parameters meet your circuit design requirements.
