Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The 95615-010LF qualifies as a direct substitute based on identical electrical and mechanical parameters. Substitution is valid when the following criteria are met:

• Connector type, position count, and row configuration remain unchanged (Header, 10 positions, 2 rows)
• Mating pitch and row spacing are identical (0.079" / 2.00mm)
• Contact type and material specifications match (Male Pin, Copper Alloy with Gold GXT™ mating finish)
• Electrical ratings are equivalent or exceed requirements (2A / 200V AC/DC)
• Mounting method is identical (Surface Mount, Solder termination)
• Flammability and material compliance are maintained (UL94 V-0)

The primary distinction between the main part and substitute is product status and packaging configuration, not functional or electrical characteristics.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 95615-010LF is the direct functional equivalent for the obsolete 95615-010. Selection between these parts should be based on the following criteria:

For new designs or redesigns: The 95615-010LF is the appropriate choice. This part maintains active product status with Amphenol ICC, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain stability. The RoHS compliance designation of the 95615-010LF provides additional regulatory alignment for applications subject to environmental compliance requirements.

For legacy system support: The 95615-010 remains functionally interchangeable with the 95615-010LF at the circuit level. Both parts share identical electrical ratings, mechanical dimensions, and contact specifications. The choice between them depends on procurement availability and project-specific compliance mandates.

Compliance considerations: The 95615-010LF carries explicit RoHS Compliant status, whereas the 95615-010 does not specify this designation. For applications requiring RoHS compliance documentation, the 95615-010LF is the preferred selection.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 95615-010LF be used as a direct replacement for the 95615-010 in existing assemblies?

A: Yes. Both parts are mechanically and electrically identical. The 95615-010LF can be substituted without circuit redesign or PCB layout modification. Mating connectors and cable assemblies designed for the 95615-010 are fully compatible with the 95615-010LF.

Q: What is the significance of the "LF" suffix in the part number 95615-010LF?

A: The "LF" designation indicates a lead-free variant. This suffix denotes compliance with RoHS directives and the use of lead-free solder termination processes. The electrical and mechanical performance remains unchanged from the base part number.

Q: Are there packaging differences between the 95615-010 and 95615-010LF?

A: The 95615-010 is supplied in standard packaging, while the 95615-010LF is available in bulk packaging. This distinction affects procurement quantities and handling but does not impact component functionality or performance.

Q: Why is the 95615-010 classified as obsolete?

A: Obsolescence typically reflects manufacturer discontinuation decisions based on market demand and product lifecycle management. The availability of the active 95615-010LF variant ensures that functional continuity is maintained for applications requiring this connector type.

Q: What electrical parameters determine substitution validity for this connector header?

A: Current rating (2A AC/DC), voltage rating (200V AC/DC), contact material (Copper Alloy), and contact finish (Gold GXT™) are the primary electrical parameters. Any substitute must maintain these specifications to ensure circuit performance and reliability.

Q: Are there any mechanical constraints for substitution?

A: Substitution requires identical pitch spacing (0.079" / 2.00mm), row configuration (2 rows, 10 positions), mounting type (Surface Mount), and shrouding design (Shrouded - 2 Wall). Deviations in these parameters would require PCB redesign and are not considered direct substitutions.
