Engineering Selection Recommendations

All listed substitute parts maintain active production status and full RoHS3 compliance with UL94 V-0 flammability certification. Selection between the DF11-8DP-2DSA(08) and its substitutes is based on the following engineering considerations:

DF11-8DP-2DSA(24) (Hirose Electric Co Ltd) is the manufacturer-recommended equivalent, differing only in packaging format (tube versus bulk). This part is functionally identical to the original specification and represents the primary substitution path within the Hirose DF11 series.

1470109-8 (TE Connectivity AMP Connectors) provides equivalent mechanical and electrical compatibility with higher current rating (3A) and operates within the -25°C to 85°C temperature range. Voltage rating is specified at 100VDC, which is lower than the original 250V specification and requires application-level evaluation.

B8B-PHDSS(LF)(SN) (JST Sales America Inc.) offers equivalent mechanical compatibility with higher current rating (3A) and maintains the 250V voltage specification. Operating temperature range is -25°C to 85°C. Insulation material includes glass-filled polyamide, providing enhanced mechanical properties.

SWR204-NRTN-D04-ST-GA (Sullins Connector Solutions) provides mechanical compatibility with higher current rating (3A per contact) but specifies a 50V voltage rating, which is significantly lower than the original 250V specification and requires application-level evaluation for voltage-sensitive circuits.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can DF11-8DP-2DSA(24) be used as a direct replacement for DF11-8DP-2DSA(08)?

A: Yes. Both parts are manufactured by Hirose Electric Co Ltd within the DF11 series and share identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The difference is packaging format: DF11-8DP-2DSA(08) is supplied in bulk, while DF11-8DP-2DSA(24) is supplied in tube packaging. Functional performance is equivalent.

Q: What are the key differences between Hirose DF11 and TE Connectivity 1470109-8 connectors?

A: Both connectors share identical pitch (0.079"), position count (8), row configuration (2), and mounting method (through-hole solder). The 1470109-8 provides higher current rating (3A versus 2A) but operates at 100VDC maximum voltage compared to the DF11's 250V rating. Operating temperature range is -25°C to 85°C versus -30°C to 85°C for the DF11. Application voltage requirements determine suitability.

Q: Are JST B8B-PHDSS(LF)(SN) and Sullins SWR204-NRTN-D04-ST-GA connectors suitable for high-voltage applications?

A: The JST B8B-PHDSS(LF)(SN) maintains 250V voltage rating equivalent to the original DF11-8DP-2DSA(08). The Sullins SWR204-NRTN-D04-ST-GA is rated for 50V maximum, which is insufficient for applications requiring 250V operation. Voltage specification must be evaluated against circuit requirements.

Q: What is the significance of the -30°C operating temperature range on the DF11-8DP-2DSA(08)?

A: The DF11-8DP-2DSA(08) operates from -30°C to 85°C, providing a 5-degree lower minimum temperature limit compared to substitute parts from TE Connectivity, JST, and Sullins, which operate from -25°C to 85°C. Applications requiring operation below -25°C require the original DF11 specification or equivalent Hirose parts.

Q: Can substitute connectors with higher current ratings (3A) be used in circuits designed for 2A operation?

A: Yes. Higher current ratings provide design margin and do not create compatibility issues in circuits designed for lower current operation. The connector will operate safely within the original 2A specification. However, the lower voltage ratings of certain substitutes (1470109-8 at 100VDC and SWR204-NRTN-D04-ST-GA at 50V) must be evaluated against circuit voltage requirements.

Q: What packaging considerations apply when selecting between bulk and tube formats?

A: DF11-8DP-2DSA(08) is supplied in bulk packaging, while DF11-8DP-2DSA(24) is supplied in tube packaging. Tube packaging provides better protection during storage and handling but may incur higher per-unit cost for small quantities. Bulk packaging is suitable for high-volume manufacturing environments with proper component handling procedures. Electrical and mechanical performance is identical.
