DF11-8DP-2DSA(20) Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The DF11-8DP-2DSA(20) is a rectangular connector header manufactured by Hirose Electric Co Ltd, designed for through-hole mounting in board-to-board or cable applications. This 8-position, 2-row connector operates at 2A current rating and 250V voltage rating with a 0.079" (2.00mm) pitch configuration. The part is classified as obsolete, necessitating identification of equivalent alternatives that maintain electrical and mechanical compatibility for ongoing production and repair applications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the DF11-8DP-2DSA(20) is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type: Header
• Contact Type: Male Pin
• Number of Positions: 8
• Number of Rows: 2
• Pitch - Mating: 0.079" (2.00mm)
• Row Spacing - Mating: 0.079" (2.00mm)
• Mounting Type: Through Hole
• Shrouding: Shrouded - 4 Wall
• Termination: Solder
• Fastening Type: Detent Lock
• Material Flammability Rating: UL94 V-0

All identified substitute parts meet these core electrical and mechanical parameters. Variations in current rating, voltage rating, contact material, and insulation material specifications are noted in the parameter comparison table and do not preclude functional substitution where application requirements permit.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

DF11-8DP-2DSA(24) is the primary substitute, offering identical electrical and mechanical specifications with active product status and ROHS3 compliance. This part maintains the same manufacturer lineage and series designation, ensuring design compatibility.

1470109-8 (TE Connectivity AMPMODU series) provides an alternative with higher current rating (3A) and equivalent voltage performance. The lower voltage rating (100VDC) requires application verification where 250V operation is specified.

B8B-PHDSS(LF)(SN) (JST PHD series) offers equivalent electrical performance with higher current capacity (3A) and maintains 250V voltage rating. The glass-filled nylon insulation provides enhanced mechanical properties.

SWR204-NRTN-D04-ST-GA (Sullins SWR204 series) is suitable for applications where the 50V voltage rating is sufficient. This part provides the highest current rating (3A per contact) and active product status with ROHS3 compliance.

All substitute parts maintain UL94 V-0 flammability rating and MSL 1 moisture sensitivity classification. Selection should be based on application voltage and current requirements, with preference for active product status and ROHS3 compliance for new designs.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can DF11-8DP-2DSA(24) be used as a direct replacement for DF11-8DP-2DSA(20)?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical connector type, contact configuration, pitch, row spacing, mounting type, shrouding, and termination method. The primary difference is product status (active vs. obsolete) and RoHS compliance. Electrical and mechanical compatibility is complete.

Q: What are the voltage and current limitations when substituting with alternative manufacturers?

A: The original part operates at 2A and 250V. Substitute parts from TE Connectivity (1470109-8) are rated 3A at 100VDC, JST (B8B-PHDSS(LF)(SN)) are rated 3A at 250V, and Sullins (SWR204-NRTN-D04-ST-GA) are rated 3A per contact at 50V. Application requirements must not exceed the voltage rating of the selected substitute.

Q: Are there packaging differences between substitute parts?

A: Yes. DF11-8DP-2DSA(20) and DF11-8DP-2DSA(24) are packaged in tube and tube formats respectively. TE Connectivity 1470109-8, JST B8B-PHDSS(LF)(SN), and Sullins SWR204-NRTN-D04-ST-GA are supplied in bulk packaging. Packaging does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility.

Q: Do all substitute parts meet RoHS requirements?

A: The original DF11-8DP-2DSA(20) is RoHS non-compliant. All identified substitutes (DF11-8DP-2DSA(24), 1470109-8, B8B-PHDSS(LF)(SN), and SWR204-NRTN-D04-ST-GA) are ROHS3 compliant, making them suitable for applications requiring RoHS compliance.

Q: What is the operating temperature range for each substitute?

A: DF11-8DP-2DSA(20) and DF11-8DP-2DSA(24) operate from -30°C to 85°C. All other substitutes (1470109-8, B8B-PHDSS(LF)(SN), and SWR204-NRTN-D04-ST-GA) operate from -25°C to 85°C. The narrower range of substitute parts does not affect most standard applications.

Q: Are contact material differences significant for substitution?

A: The original part uses brass contacts. TE Connectivity and Sullins substitutes also use brass, while JST B8B-PHDSS(LF)(SN) uses copper alloy. Both materials provide equivalent electrical conductivity and contact reliability for this connector class. Material selection does not preclude functional substitution.
