Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

DF11C-26DP-2V(57) (Hirose Electric Co Ltd)

This part is the primary recommended substitute. It maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications to the DF11G-26DP-2V(50) while offering active product status. The DF11C variant is part of the same DF11 series with equivalent performance characteristics. The primary difference is packaging format (Tape & Reel) and the addition of Pick and Place features, which provide manufacturing advantages for high-volume production. RoHS compliance and MSL rating are identical.

DF11Z-26DP-2V(27) (Hirose Electric Co Ltd)

This part is an alternative substitute within the DF11 series with active product status. It maintains all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. The contact finish differs (Tin instead of Gold), and it includes both Board Guide and Pick and Place features. This variant is suitable for applications where tin plating is acceptable and provides enhanced manufacturing flexibility. Tape & Reel packaging supports automated assembly processes.

0878322620 (Molex Milli-Grid 87832 Series)

This part is a cross-manufacturer substitute from Molex. While it meets the core functional requirements (26 positions, 2 rows, 2.00mm pitch, surface mount, shrouded 4-wall, solder termination), it exhibits the following differences: lower insulation height (0.252" vs. 0.283"), square contact shape (vs. circular), latch holder fastening (vs. detent lock), phosphor bronze contact material (vs. brass), and extended operating temperature range (-55°C to 105°C). Current and voltage ratings are not specified for this part. Selection of this substitute requires confirmation that the mechanical and material differences are compatible with the target application.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can DF11C-26DP-2V(57) be used as a direct replacement for DF11G-26DP-2V(50)?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical and mechanical specifications including connector type, position count, pitch, mounting type, shrouding, termination method, insulation height, contact shape, material composition, operating temperature range, flammability rating, current rating, voltage rating, and compliance certifications. The primary difference is product status (active vs. obsolete) and packaging format.

Q: What is the significance of the contact finish difference between DF11C-26DP-2V(57) and DF11Z-26DP-2V(27)?

A: DF11C-26DP-2V(57) features gold plating on mating contacts, while DF11Z-26DP-2V(27) features tin plating. Both finishes provide adequate electrical conductivity and corrosion resistance. Gold plating offers superior contact reliability in low-current applications and provides better long-term stability. Tin plating is cost-effective and suitable for general-purpose applications. Selection depends on application requirements and cost considerations.

Q: Is the Molex 0878322620 fully compatible with the DF11G-26DP-2V(50)?

A: The Molex 0878322620 meets the core functional requirements but exhibits several mechanical and material differences. The insulation height is 0.252" compared to 0.283", the contact shape is square instead of circular, and the fastening mechanism is a latch holder instead of detent lock. The contact material is phosphor bronze instead of brass. These differences require evaluation against specific application constraints before selection.

Q: What packaging options are available for these substitute parts?

A: DF11C-26DP-2V(57) and DF11Z-26DP-2V(27) are supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format, suitable for automated pick-and-place assembly. The Molex 0878322620 is supplied in Tube packaging. Packaging selection should align with manufacturing process requirements and volume considerations.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. DF11C-26DP-2V(57) and DF11Z-26DP-2V(27) are RoHS Compliant. The Molex 0878322620 is ROHS3 Compliant. All parts meet current regulatory requirements for hazardous substance restrictions.

Q: What is the Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) for these parts?

A: All parts, including the main part and all substitutes, have MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions during storage or handling.
