Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The DF1BZ-2P-2.5DSA(11) can be substituted with the DF1BZ-2P-2.5DSA based on the following critical parameters that determine functional equivalence:

• Pitch - Mating: Both parts maintain 0.098" (2.50mm) pitch spacing
• Number of Positions: Both are 2-position configurations
• Connector Type: Both are header connectors
• Contact Type: Both feature male pin contacts
• Mounting Type: Both use through-hole mounting
• Termination Method: Both use solder termination
• Shrouding Configuration: Both have shrouded 4-wall design
• Fastening Type: Both employ push-pull fastening
• Base Product Number: Both share the DF1BZ base designation

The substitute part DF1BZ-2P-2.5DSA is the active production equivalent with identical mechanical and electrical interface specifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The DF1BZ-2P-2.5DSA serves as the direct substitute for the obsolete DF1BZ-2P-2.5DSA(11). The active part maintains identical mechanical and electrical interface specifications, ensuring pin-for-pin compatibility in existing PCB designs and cable assemblies.

The substitute part carries active product status with current manufacturing support from Hirose Electric Co Ltd. It meets ROHS3 compliance requirements and REACH unaffected status, satisfying modern regulatory requirements. The MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited) indicates no moisture sensitivity constraints during storage and handling.

Selection of the DF1BZ-2P-2.5DSA is appropriate for new designs and replacement applications where the original obsolete part is no longer available through standard distribution channels.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the DF1BZ-2P-2.5DSA directly replace the DF1BZ-2P-2.5DSA(11)?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical pitch (2.50mm), position count (2), connector type (header), contact type (male pin), mounting method (through hole), and fastening mechanism (push-pull). No PCB or cable assembly modifications are required.

Q: What is the difference between the obsolete and active versions?

A: The primary difference is product status. The active DF1BZ-2P-2.5DSA has documented specifications including contact finish (tin), contact material (brass), insulation material (polyamide/nylon), operating temperature range (-35°C to 85°C), and voltage rating (250V). The obsolete version lacks published detailed specifications but maintains the same physical and functional interface.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: The obsolete part DF1BZ-2P-2.5DSA(11) was supplied in unspecified packaging. The active substitute DF1BZ-2P-2.5DSA is supplied in bulk packaging, which is standard for connector distribution.

Q: Does the active substitute meet current compliance standards?

A: Yes. The DF1BZ-2P-2.5DSA is ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements for electronic components.

Q: What is the MSL rating for the substitute part?

A: The active part carries MSL 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions. This allows standard storage and handling without special environmental controls.
