D6232-01 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The D6232-01 is a 32-position DIP/DIL header connector with slotted tin contact finish, manufactured by Harwin Inc. This through-hole rectangular connector is designed for applications requiring dual-row header connectivity with 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch spacing. The part is currently obsolete, making identification of compatible substitute components essential for ongoing system support, maintenance, and new design implementations where legacy compatibility is required.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the D6232-01 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Connector type classification (DIP/DIL header)
• Position count (32 positions)
• Row configuration (2 rows)
• Pitch specification (0.100" / 2.54mm)
• Row spacing (0.600" / 15.24mm)
• Contact type (slotted configuration)
• Mounting method (through-hole)
• Termination process (solder)

The substitute part 160-90-632-00-001000 manufactured by Mill-Max Manufacturing Corp. meets all these critical parameters. While contact finish differs (tin-lead versus tin) and contact finish thickness varies, these variations remain within acceptable substitution criteria for DIP header connectors in this category, as the core mechanical and electrical interface specifications are identical.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 160-90-632-00-001000 from Mill-Max Manufacturing Corp. is the qualified substitute for the obsolete D6232-01. Selection of this substitute is based on:

• Identical mechanical interface specifications (pitch, row spacing, position count, row configuration)
• Matching connector type and contact configuration (DIP/DIL header with slotted contacts)
• Equivalent through-hole mounting and solder termination
• Active product status ensuring ongoing availability and supply chain continuity
• Identical compliance certifications (RoHS non-compliant, REACH Unaffected, EAR99 ECCN classification)
• Equivalent moisture sensitivity rating (MSL 1)

The tin-lead contact finish of the substitute provides enhanced corrosion resistance compared to the tin finish of the original part, with increased contact finish thickness offering improved durability in field applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 160-90-632-00-001000 be used as a direct replacement for the D6232-01?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical mechanical and electrical interface specifications including pitch, row spacing, position count, mounting type, and termination method. The connectors are mechanically and electrically interchangeable.

Q: What is the difference between the tin and tin-lead contact finishes?

A: Both finishes provide electrical conductivity and corrosion protection. Tin-lead finish offers enhanced corrosion resistance and improved contact durability. The tin-lead finish thickness (200.0µin) exceeds the tin finish thickness (137.8µin), providing additional protective coating.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between the original and substitute parts?

A: Both parts share identical compliance status: RoHS non-compliant, REACH Unaffected, and EAR99 ECCN classification. Moisture sensitivity levels are equivalent (MSL 1 - Unlimited).

Q: Why is the D6232-01 listed as obsolete?

A: The D6232-01 has been discontinued by Harwin Inc. The 160-90-632-00-001000 remains in active production, ensuring long-term availability for replacement and new applications.

Q: What is the packaging format for the substitute part?

A: The 160-90-632-00-001000 is supplied in tube packaging, suitable for both manual and automated assembly processes.
