CLT-106-02-L-D-BE Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The CLT-106-02-L-D-BE is a 12-position receptacle connector manufactured by Samtec Inc., designed for board-to-board applications with bottom entry configuration and surface mount termination. This connector features 0.079" (2.00mm) pitch spacing, gold-plated mating contacts, and operates across -55°C to 125°C. The product maintains active status with full RoHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters align within the allowed specifications for this rectangular connector category.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution analysis for the CLT-106-02-L-D-BE is based on the following critical parameters: connector pitch (0.079" / 2.00mm), surface mount termination, gold mating contact finish, UL94 V-0 flammability rating, RoHS3 compliance, and MSL 1 rating. The identified substitute NPPN061BFLD-RC shares the following compatible attributes: 0.079" (2.00mm) pitch spacing, surface mount configuration, gold contact finish, UL94 V-0 rating, RoHS3 compliance, and MSL 1 rating. However, the substitute differs in position count (6 vs. 12), row configuration (1 vs. 2), connector style (header vs. receptacle), and current rating (2A vs. 4.1A per contact). These differences establish distinct application boundaries and require engineering evaluation for specific circuit requirements.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Selection between CLT-106-02-L-D-BE and NPPN061BFLD-RC must account for documented parameter differences. Both connectors maintain active product status, ROHS3 compliance, and UL94 V-0 flammability certification. The CLT-106-02-L-D-BE operates across -55°C to 125°C with 4.1A per-contact current capacity and 12-position dual-row configuration. The NPPN061BFLD-RC operates across -40°C to 105°C with 2A per-contact current capacity and 6-position single-row configuration. Circuit designs requiring the full 12-position capacity, extended temperature range below -40°C, or current levels exceeding 2A per contact must use the CLT-106-02-L-D-BE. Applications with reduced position requirements and operating within -40°C to 105°C may evaluate NPPN061BFLD-RC based on form factor compatibility and mating interface requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can NPPN061BFLD-RC directly replace CLT-106-02-L-D-BE in existing designs?

A: Direct replacement is not possible. The NPPN061BFLD-RC provides 6 positions in a single-row header configuration, while CLT-106-02-L-D-BE provides 12 positions in a dual-row receptacle configuration. Mating interface compatibility and position count must align with circuit board layout and connector socket design.

Q: What are the critical pitch-related compatibility factors?

A: Both connectors share 0.079" (2.00mm) mating pitch spacing, which establishes baseline mechanical compatibility for contact alignment. However, connector type differences (receptacle vs. header) and row configuration (dual vs. single) require separate mating connector designs.

Q: Are there temperature range limitations when considering substitution?

A: Yes. The CLT-106-02-L-D-BE operates from -55°C to 125°C, while NPPN061BFLD-RC operates from -40°C to 105°C. Applications requiring operation below -40°C or above 105°C must use CLT-106-02-L-D-BE.

Q: How do current ratings affect substitution decisions?

A: CLT-106-02-L-D-BE supports 4.1A per contact, while NPPN061BFLD-RC supports 2A per contact. Circuit designs requiring current levels between 2A and 4.1A per contact cannot use NPPN061BFLD-RC without exceeding rated specifications.

Q: Do both connectors meet the same compliance standards?

A: Both connectors are ROHS3 compliant, UL94 V-0 rated, and carry MSL 1 (unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating. Compliance certifications are equivalent between the two parts.
