Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The 98424-F52-20ULF qualifies as a direct substitute based on the following critical parameters:

• Identical connector type, pitch, and position configuration (20-position, 2.00mm pitch, 2-row header)
• Matching electrical specifications (2A current rating, 200V voltage rating)
• Identical mechanical design (surface mount, shrouded 4-wall, solder termination)
• Identical contact materials and finishes (copper alloy with gold mating finish and tin post finish)
• Identical insulation material and flammability rating (thermoplastic, UL94 V-0)
• Same series designation (Minitek® 2.00mm)

The substitution is valid across all electrical and mechanical parameters specified for this product category.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 98424-F52-20ULF is the direct substitute for the obsolete 98424-F52-20U. Selection of the substitute part is based on:

• Product status transition from obsolete to active, ensuring continued availability and supply chain reliability
• RoHS compliance of the substitute part (98424-F52-20ULF) versus non-compliance of the original part, meeting current regulatory requirements
• Identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all defined parameters
• Maintained UL94 V-0 flammability rating and moisture sensitivity characteristics
• Tube packaging of the substitute part providing standard handling and storage compatibility

No functional or performance differences exist between these parts within the specified parameter set.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 98424-F52-20ULF be used as a direct replacement for 98424-F52-20U in existing designs?

A: Yes. The parts are electrically and mechanically identical across all specified parameters, including pitch, position count, current and voltage ratings, contact materials, and flammability rating.

Q: What is the primary reason for substitution?

A: The original part (98424-F52-20U) is obsolete. The substitute (98424-F52-20ULF) is active and provides identical functionality with improved RoHS compliance.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: The original part packaging is not specified. The substitute part is supplied in tube packaging, which is standard for this connector type and does not affect electrical or mechanical performance.

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Both parts meet UL94 V-0 flammability and MSL 1 moisture sensitivity requirements. The substitute part additionally meets RoHS compliance requirements.

Q: What are the critical parameters for confirming substitution compatibility?

A: Pitch (2.00mm), position count (20), row configuration (2), mounting type (surface mount), current rating (2A), and voltage rating (200V) must remain constant for substitution validity.
