Substitute Part Grouping Explanation
The DF11-6DP-2DS(24) qualifies as a direct substitute for the DF11-6DP-2DS(98) based on the following critical parameters:
- Same base product number: DF11
- Identical number of positions: 6
- Identical number of rows: 2
- Identical mating pitch: 0.079" (2.00mm)
- Same connector category: Rectangular Connectors
- Same manufacturer: Hirose Electric Co Ltd
- Active product status with full inventory availability
The primary distinction between these parts is the packaging designation suffix (98 versus 24), which reflects different tape and reel configurations or packaging specifications rather than functional or electrical differences.

Engineering Selection Recommendations
The DF11-6DP-2DS(24) is the appropriate substitute for the obsolete DF11-6DP-2DS(98). Selection is based on:
- Identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all functional parameters
- Active product status with confirmed inventory availability (17,567 pcs in stock)
- ROHS3 compliance certification, meeting current regulatory requirements
- REACH unaffected status, confirming compliance with chemical substance regulations
- Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited), indicating no special handling requirements during storage or assembly
The packaging designation change from (98) to (24) does not affect connector performance, mating characteristics, or board-level integration. Component selection should proceed with the DF11-6DP-2DS(24) for new production and service applications.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Are the DF11-6DP-2DS(98) and DF11-6DP-2DS(24) mechanically compatible?
A: Yes. Both connectors share identical mechanical dimensions, including pitch (2.00mm), number of positions (6), row configuration (2 rows), mounting type (through hole, right angle), and shrouding design (4 wall). They are directly interchangeable at the board level.
Q: What is the difference between the (98) and (24) suffixes?
A: The suffix designates packaging and tape reel configuration. The functional and electrical specifications of the connector itself remain identical. The (24) variant is the current active production version.
Q: Does the DF11-6DP-2DS(24) meet current compliance standards?
A: Yes. The DF11-6DP-2DS(24) is ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current regulatory requirements for electronic components in most jurisdictions.
Q: What is the Moisture Sensitivity Level for the substitute part?
A: The DF11-6DP-2DS(24) has an MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited), meaning no special moisture control measures are required during storage, handling, or assembly.
Q: Can I use the DF11-6DP-2DS(24) as a direct replacement in existing designs?
A: Yes. The DF11-6DP-2DS(24) is a direct functional and mechanical equivalent. No design modifications are required for integration into existing PCB layouts or connector mating applications.
Q: What is the current inventory status of the substitute part?
A: The DF11-6DP-2DS(24) has 17,567 pieces in stock as new original inventory, ensuring availability for production and service requirements.
