Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the DF11-8DS-2DSA(01) is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Connector pitch and position count: 0.079" (2.00mm) spacing with 8 positions in 2 rows
• Mounting configuration: Through-hole PCB mounting
• Electrical ratings: 2A minimum current capacity and 250V voltage rating
• Termination compatibility: Solder-capable termination
• Flammability compliance: UL94 V-0 material rating
• Mating interface: Receptacle (female socket) for board-to-board or cable connection

Two substitute categories are identified:

Category 1 - Direct Series Equivalent: DF11-8DS-2DSA(06) maintains identical mechanical and electrical specifications within the same DF11 series, with the primary difference being active product status and RoHS3 compliance.

Category 2 - Cross-Manufacturer Alternatives: B8B-PHDSS(LF)(SN) and SWR204-NRTN-D04-ST-GA are header connectors (male pin) that mate with receptacle connectors. These represent complementary connector types for complete board-to-board or cable assembly solutions, sharing the same 0.079" (2.00mm) pitch and through-hole mounting.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

DF11-8DS-2DSA(06) is the primary direct substitute for DF11-8DS-2DSA(01). Both parts maintain identical mechanical dimensions, electrical ratings, and operating temperature ranges within the DF11 series. The key advantage of DF11-8DS-2DSA(06) is its active product status and ROHS3 compliance, making it suitable for new designs and long-term procurement. The contact finish post differs (Tin vs. Nickel), but both meet the specified electrical and mechanical requirements.

B8B-PHDSS(LF)(SN) and SWR204-NRTN-D04-ST-GA serve as complementary header connectors for mating applications. These parts share the same 0.079" (2.00mm) pitch and through-hole mounting configuration. Both are active products with ROHS3 compliance. Selection between these two depends on application-specific requirements: B8B-PHDSS(LF)(SN) maintains the full 250V voltage rating and operates across -25°C ~ 85°C, while SWR204-NRTN-D04-ST-GA operates at 50V with the same temperature range. For applications requiring 250V operation, B8B-PHDSS(LF)(SN) is the appropriate choice.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can DF11-8DS-2DSA(06) be used as a direct replacement for DF11-8DS-2DSA(01)?

A: Yes. Both parts are receptacle connectors within the DF11 series with identical 8-position, 0.079" (2.00mm) pitch configuration, through-hole mounting, and electrical ratings (2A, 250V). The primary difference is product status and RoHS compliance. DF11-8DS-2DSA(06) is the active equivalent.

Q: What is the difference between receptacle and header connectors in this substitution list?

A: The DF11-8DS-2DSA(01) is a receptacle connector (female socket) designed to accept mating header connectors (male pins). B8B-PHDSS(LF)(SN) and SWR204-NRTN-D04-ST-GA are header connectors that mate with receptacles. Both connector types are required for complete board-to-board or cable assemblies.

Q: Are B8B-PHDSS(LF)(SN) and SWR204-NRTN-D04-ST-GA interchangeable?

A: Both share the same 0.079" (2.00mm) pitch, 8-position configuration, and through-hole mounting. However, SWR204-NRTN-D04-ST-GA operates at 50V maximum, while B8B-PHDSS(LF)(SN) supports 250V. For applications requiring 250V operation, B8B-PHDSS(LF)(SN) is required.

Q: What does RoHS3 compliance mean for these parts?

A: ROHS3 compliance indicates the part meets Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive requirements. DF11-8DS-2DSA(01) is RoHS non-compliant, while DF11-8DS-2DSA(06), B8B-PHDSS(LF)(SN), and SWR204-NRTN-D04-ST-GA are ROHS3 compliant, making them suitable for applications with RoHS requirements.

Q: Does the contact finish difference between DF11-8DS-2DSA(01) and DF11-8DS-2DSA(06) affect compatibility?

A: No. The mating contact finish (Gold) is identical in both parts. The post contact finish differs (Nickel vs. Tin), but both finishes meet the electrical and mechanical requirements for solder and press-fit termination.

Q: What is the operating temperature range difference between the main part and substitutes?

A: DF11-8DS-2DSA(01) and DF11-8DS-2DSA(06) operate from -30°C ~ 85°C. B8B-PHDSS(LF)(SN) and SWR204-NRTN-D04-ST-GA operate from -25°C ~ 85°C. For applications requiring operation below -25°C, the DF11 series is required.
