Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the DF11H-32DS-2C is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Manufacturer: Hirose Electric Co Ltd (same manufacturer ensures design compatibility within the DF11 series)
• Base Product Number: DF11 (indicates membership in the same connector family)
• Number of Positions: 32 (electrical requirement for contact count)
• Pitch: 0.079" (2.00mm) (mechanical requirement for contact spacing)
• Connector Type: Receptacle (functional role in the assembly)
• Contact Type: Female Socket (electrical interface specification)

The substitute part DF11-32DS-2C maintains all critical parameters while transitioning from Obsolete to Active product status, ensuring functional and mechanical compatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The DF11-32DS-2C is the direct active equivalent for the obsolete DF11H-32DS-2C. Selection is based on:

• Product Status Alignment: The substitute transitions from Obsolete to Active status, ensuring long-term component availability and supply chain continuity.
• Regulatory Compliance: The substitute maintains ROHS3 compliance and REACH Unaffected status, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements.
• Functional Equivalence: Identical position count (32), pitch (2.00mm), row configuration (2 rows), and manufacturer ensure mechanical and electrical compatibility within the DF11 connector family.
• Moisture Sensitivity: MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited) provides superior handling flexibility compared to the Not Applicable rating of the obsolete part.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can DF11-32DS-2C directly replace DF11H-32DS-2C in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical position count, pitch, row configuration, and manufacturer designation within the DF11 series. The substitute maintains functional and mechanical compatibility for direct substitution.

Q: What is the significance of the product status change from Obsolete to Active?

A: Active status ensures ongoing manufacturing, quality control, and supply availability. Obsolete parts face discontinuation risk and limited inventory. The substitute provides design continuity and production reliability.

Q: Are there compliance differences between the two parts?

A: The substitute DF11-32DS-2C includes ROHS3 compliance certification and defined MSL rating (1 - Unlimited), meeting current regulatory standards. The obsolete part lacks these specifications.

Q: What are the key parameters that determine substitution eligibility?

A: Substitution is determined by manufacturer (Hirose Electric Co Ltd), base product number (DF11), position count (32), pitch (2.00mm), number of rows (2), connector type (Receptacle), and contact type (Female Socket).

Q: Is contact termination method identical between the parts?

A: The substitute specifies Crimp termination. Ensure existing contact and termination specifications align with this requirement for assembly compatibility.
