Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The DF11CZ-32DP-2V(27) qualifies as a manufacturer-recommended substitute based on the following alignment criteria:

Electrical Compatibility:

• Identical pitch specification: 0.079" (2.00mm)
• Matching position count: 32 positions
• Equivalent voltage rating: 250V
• Equivalent current rating: 2A
• Identical operating temperature range: -30°C ~ 85°C

Mechanical Compatibility:

• Same series designation: DF11
• Identical connector type: Header
• Matching contact type: Male Pin
• Same number of rows: 2
• Equivalent shrouding design: Shrouded - 4 Wall

Key Substitution Differentiator: The primary distinction is the mounting technology. The DF11FZ-32DP-2V(20) employs through-hole mounting for PCB assembly, while the DF11CZ-32DP-2V(27) utilizes surface-mount technology. Both maintain electrical and mechanical parameter equivalence within the DF11 series specification.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the DF11FZ-32DP-2V(20) and DF11CZ-32DP-2V(27) maintain active product status with full RoHS compliance and UL94 V-0 flammability certification. Selection between these parts is determined by PCB assembly methodology:

• Through-hole mounting (DF11FZ-32DP-2V(20)): Suitable for applications requiring mechanical robustness, rework capability, or legacy PCB designs with through-hole technology.

• Surface-mount technology (DF11CZ-32DP-2V(27)): Appropriate for high-density PCB layouts, automated assembly processes, and modern manufacturing environments requiring pick-and-place compatibility.

Both parts satisfy identical electrical specifications and environmental operating conditions. Substitution is valid when PCB assembly infrastructure and design layout accommodate the mounting technology transition.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the DF11CZ-32DP-2V(27) directly replace the DF11FZ-32DP-2V(20) on an existing PCB?

A: Direct PCB replacement is not possible without design modification. The DF11FZ-32DP-2V(20) requires through-hole pads and vias, while the DF11CZ-32DP-2V(27) requires surface-mount landing patterns. PCB layout redesign is necessary for substitution.

Q: Are the electrical ratings identical between these two parts?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical voltage rating (250V), current rating (2A), and operating temperature range (-30°C ~ 85°C). Electrical performance is equivalent.

Q: What is the significance of the packaging designation in the part number?

A: The DF11FZ-32DP-2V(20) indicates through-hole packaging, while the DF11CZ-32DP-2V(27) indicates surface-mount packaging with tape and reel distribution. This affects only assembly methodology, not electrical function.

Q: Are both parts compliant with environmental and safety standards?

A: Yes. Both parts are RoHS compliant, carry UL94 V-0 flammability certification, and maintain MSL 1 (unlimited) moisture sensitivity level, indicating equivalent environmental and safety qualification.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably in the same connector system?

A: Yes, provided the mating connector and PCB assembly process are adapted to the mounting technology. The 32-position, 2.00mm pitch specification ensures mechanical and electrical compatibility at the interface level.
