DF11-12DP-2DSA(87) Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The DF11-12DP-2DSA(87) is a rectangular connector header manufactured by Hirose Electric Co Ltd, designed for through-hole board-to-board or cable applications. This 12-position, 2-row connector operates at 2A current rating and 250V voltage rating with a 0.079" (2.00mm) pitch. The part is currently obsolete, making equivalent and substitute parts necessary for ongoing design support, maintenance, and new production requirements.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the DF11-12DP-2DSA(87) is determined by the following critical parameters:

Connector type (Header), contact type (Male Pin), and position count (12 positions in 2 rows)
Mating pitch and row spacing (0.079" / 2.00mm)
Mounting method (Through Hole) and shrouding configuration (Shrouded - 4 Wall)
Contact material (Brass) and finish (Tin)
Insulation material (Polyamide/Nylon)
Flammability rating (UL94 V-0)
RoHS compliance status

The three substitute parts listed maintain these core electrical and mechanical parameters, ensuring functional compatibility in applications originally designed for the DF11-12DP-2DSA(87).

Engineering Selection Recommendations

DF11-12DP-2DSA(08) is the primary substitute for the obsolete DF11-12DP-2DSA(87). Both parts are manufactured by Hirose Electric Co Ltd within the DF11 series and maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The DF11-12DP-2DSA(08) is currently in active production status with higher inventory availability (1700 pcs vs. 1026 pcs). This part carries ROHS3 compliance and is the recommended direct replacement for new designs and production continuity.

1-1470109-2 (TE Connectivity AMP Connectors, AMPMODU series) and SWR204-NRTN-D06-ST-GA (Sullins Connector Solutions, SWR204 series) are functionally equivalent alternatives. Both maintain the core 12-position, 2-row, 2.00mm pitch header configuration with through-hole mounting and 4-wall shrouding. These parts offer higher current ratings (3A vs. 2A) and are in active production status. Selection between these alternatives depends on voltage and temperature requirements specific to the application, as both carry ROHS3 compliance and UL94 V-0 flammability ratings.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can DF11-12DP-2DSA(08) be used as a direct replacement for DF11-12DP-2DSA(87)?

A: Yes. Both parts are from the Hirose DF11 series and share identical connector type, position count, pitch, mounting method, and electrical ratings. The primary difference is product status (active vs. obsolete) and packaging designation.

Q: What are the key differences between the Hirose DF11-12DP-2DSA(08) and the TE Connectivity 1-1470109-2?

A: Both maintain the same 12-position, 2-row, 2.00mm pitch configuration. The TE Connectivity part offers higher current rating (3A vs. 2A) and lower voltage rating (100VDC vs. 250V). Operating temperature range is slightly narrower (-25°C to 85°C vs. -30°C to 85°C). Insulation material differs slightly (PA66 Nylon 6/6 vs. PA Nylon).

Q: Is the Sullins SWR204-NRTN-D06-ST-GA suitable for applications requiring 250V operation?

A: No. The SWR204-NRTN-D06-ST-GA has a voltage rating of 50V, which is insufficient for applications designed for the original DF11-12DP-2DSA(87) at 250V. This part is suitable only for lower-voltage applications.

Q: What is the significance of the insulation color difference between substitute parts?

A: Insulation color (Gray, Black, or Natural) is a visual identification feature and does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility. Color selection is typically a manufacturing or design preference and does not impact functional substitution.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. All listed substitute parts carry either RoHS or ROHS3 compliance status, meeting environmental and regulatory requirements equivalent to the original DF11-12DP-2DSA(87).
