Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The substitute part DF22L-5P-7.92DS(53) is classified as a direct equivalent based on the following critical parameters that determine substitutability:

• Identical connector type, contact type, and mating pitch (0.312" / 7.92mm)
• Matching number of positions (5) and row configuration (1 row)
• Identical shrouding style (Shrouded - 4 Wall) and mounting method (Through Hole, Right Angle)
• Matching contact geometry: square shape, 0.354" (9.00mm) mating length, 0.146" (3.70mm) post length
• Identical insulation material (Polyamide/Nylon) and color (Red)
• Equivalent electrical ratings: 1000V voltage rating and gold-plated mating contacts
• Same flammability certification (UL94 V-0) and moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1)

The primary distinction is product status: the main part is obsolete while the substitute is active, making DF22L-5P-7.92DS(53) the current production equivalent.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

DF22L-5P-7.92DS(53) is the appropriate substitute for the obsolete DF22L-5P-7.92DS(06). Both parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters including connector geometry, contact configuration, voltage rating, and flammability certification.

The substitute part offers an extended operating temperature range (-55°C to 85°C versus -35°C to 85°C), providing additional thermal margin for demanding applications. Both parts carry equivalent compliance certifications: RoHS compliance and MSL 1 rating. The substitute is currently in active production status with documented inventory availability, ensuring long-term supply chain continuity.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can DF22L-5P-7.92DS(53) be used as a direct replacement for DF22L-5P-7.92DS(06)?

A: Yes. Both parts are identical in connector type, contact configuration, mating pitch, shrouding style, and electrical ratings. The substitute is the current production equivalent of the obsolete part.

Q: What is the difference in operating temperature range?

A: The main part operates from -35°C to 85°C, while the substitute operates from -55°C to 85°C. The substitute provides a wider low-temperature operating window. Both support the same upper temperature limit.

Q: Are the contact finishes identical?

A: Both parts feature gold-plated mating contacts with 8.00µin (0.203µm) thickness. The substitute additionally specifies gold finish on the post contacts, whereas the main part does not specify post contact finish.

Q: What packaging differences exist?

A: The main part packaging is not specified. The substitute is supplied in bag packaging. This affects handling and storage procedures but does not impact electrical or mechanical compatibility.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The main part is RoHS Compliant. The substitute is ROHS3 Compliant, representing a more current compliance standard. Both meet RoHS requirements.

Q: What is the current availability status?

A: The main part (DF22L-5P-7.92DS(06)) is obsolete. The substitute (DF22L-5P-7.92DS(53)) is active production with 667 pieces in stock.
