DF13-6P-1.25H(76) - Direct Hirose Equivalent

The DF13-6P-1.25H(76) is the primary substitute for the obsolete DF13-6P-1.25H(50). Both parts are from the same Hirose DF13 series and share identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The DF13-6P-1.25H(76) is currently in active production status with significantly higher inventory availability (10,530 pcs vs. 728 pcs). This part carries ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, meeting modern regulatory requirements. The packaging format differs (Tube vs. unspecified), but functional compatibility is complete.

0532610671 - Cross-Manufacturer Alternative

The Molex 0532610671 (PicoBlade 53261 series) provides a cross-manufacturer substitute when Hirose parts are unavailable. This part maintains the same pitch (0.049" / 1.25mm), position count (6), mounting configuration (surface mount, right angle), and shrouding (4 wall). Key differences include contact finish (Tin vs. Gold), contact material (Phosphor Bronze vs. Brass), and insulation height (0.134" vs. 0.142"). The part is ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected. Inventory availability is highest among all options (57,606 pcs).

For new designs or production continuity, the DF13-6P-1.25H(76) is the preferred selection due to series consistency. The Molex 0532610671 is suitable when Hirose sourcing is constrained, provided mechanical envelope and contact finish differences are acceptable for the application.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Why is the DF13-6P-1.25H(50) listed as obsolete?

A: The DF13-6P-1.25H(50) has been discontinued by Hirose Electric Co Ltd. The DF13-6P-1.25H(76) is the active production equivalent within the same series and should be used for new designs and ongoing production.

Q: Can the DF13-6P-1.25H(76) be used as a direct replacement?

A: Yes. The DF13-6P-1.25H(76) is functionally and mechanically identical to the DF13-6P-1.25H(50). Both parts share the same pitch, position count, mounting type, shrouding, and electrical ratings. The primary difference is product status (active vs. obsolete) and packaging format.

Q: What are the key differences between the Hirose DF13-6P-1.25H(76) and the Molex 0532610671?

A: Both parts maintain the same 0.049" (1.25mm) pitch, 6-position configuration, and surface mount right-angle mounting. Differences include contact finish (Gold vs. Tin), contact material (Brass vs. Phosphor Bronze), insulation height (0.142" vs. 0.134"), and insulation material composition (PA/Nylon vs. PA46/Nylon 4/6). These differences may affect mating force, contact resistance, and mechanical fit in space-constrained applications.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS compliant?

A: The DF13-6P-1.25H(76) and Molex 0532610671 are both ROHS3 compliant. The original DF13-6P-1.25H(50) RoHS status is not specified in the provided data.

Q: What is the difference in packaging between these parts?

A: The DF13-6P-1.25H(50) packaging is unspecified. The DF13-6P-1.25H(76) is supplied in Tube packaging. The Molex 0532610671 is available in Cut Tape (CT) and Digi-Reel® formats. Packaging selection depends on production volume and assembly process requirements.

Q: Can the Molex 0532610671 be used in applications requiring gold-plated contacts?

A: No. The Molex 0532610671 features tin-plated contacts, while the Hirose parts use gold plating. If gold contact finish is a functional requirement, the DF13-6P-1.25H(76) must be used.

Q: Are there any temperature or voltage limitations when substituting these parts?

A: The DF13-6P-1.25H(50) and DF13-6P-1.25H(76) share identical operating temperature (-35°C ~ 85°C) and voltage ratings (150V). The Molex 0532610671 operating temperature and voltage ratings are not specified in the provided data.
