Matching Parameters:

• Connector type: Receptacle
• Contact type: Female Socket
• Number of positions: 100
• Pitch - mating: 0.039" (1.00mm)
• Number of rows: 2
• Row spacing - mating: 0.039" (1.00mm)
• Mounting type: Surface Mount
• Termination: Solder
• Fastening type: Push-Pull
• Current rating: 2.8A per Contact
• Operating temperature: -55°C ~ 125°C
• Contact material: Phosphor Bronze
• Insulation material: Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP)
• Material flammability rating: UL94 V-0
• RoHS status: ROHS3 Compliant
• Moisture sensitivity level: 1 (Unlimited)

Differing Parameter:

• Contact finish thickness - mating: CLM-150-02-F-D-K specifies 3.00µin (0.076µm); CLM-150-02-L-D specifies 10.0µin (0.25µm)

Both parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical interface specifications, ensuring functional interchangeability in board-to-board connector applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both CLM-150-02-F-D-K and CLM-150-02-L-D are active products with identical compliance certifications, including ROHS3 compliance and UL94 V-0 flammability rating. The primary distinction between these parts is the contact finish thickness on the mating surface. The CLM-150-02-F-D-K provides a thinner gold plating (3.00µin), while the CLM-150-02-L-D offers increased gold plating thickness (10.0µin).

Selection between these parts should be based on application-specific requirements regarding contact durability and mating cycle expectations. Both parts maintain identical electrical performance, mechanical interface specifications, and environmental operating ranges. Inventory availability and supply chain considerations may also influence part selection, as the CLM-150-02-L-D currently maintains higher stock levels.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are CLM-150-02-F-D-K and CLM-150-02-L-D mechanically interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical mechanical dimensions, mounting footprints, and board-to-board interface specifications. They can be used interchangeably in PCB designs without layout modifications.

Q: What is the significance of the contact finish thickness difference?

A: The contact finish thickness affects the durability of the mating surface under repeated connection cycles. The CLM-150-02-L-D, with 10.0µin (0.25µm) gold plating, provides greater resistance to wear compared to the CLM-150-02-F-D-K with 3.00µin (0.076µm) plating. Selection depends on the expected number of mating cycles in the application.

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both CLM-150-02-F-D-K and CLM-150-02-L-D are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and carry UL94 V-0 flammability ratings. They meet identical regulatory requirements for industrial and commercial applications.

Q: Can these connectors be used in high-temperature applications?

A: Yes. Both parts are rated for operating temperatures from -55°C to 125°C, making them suitable for industrial environments and applications requiring extended temperature ranges.

Q: What is the current-carrying capacity per contact?

A: Both connectors are rated for 2.8A per contact, providing consistent electrical performance across the 100-position connector.

Q: Are there any packaging differences between these parts?

A: Both parts are supplied in tube packaging. Inventory levels differ, with CLM-150-02-L-D currently maintaining higher stock availability.
