Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the DF3A-2P-2DSA(17) is determined by strict alignment of the following electrical and mechanical parameters:

Connector series (DF3), connector type (Header), contact type (Male Pin), number of positions (2), mating pitch (2.00mm), mounting type (Through Hole), shrouding configuration (Shrouded - 4 Wall), current rating (3A), operating temperature range (-30°C ~ 85°C), and RoHS compliance status.

The substitute part DF3A-2P-2DSA meets all these criteria and is classified as an active product, providing a direct functional replacement for the obsolete main part.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications, including connector configuration, contact ratings, operating temperature range, and compliance certifications. The substitute part is currently in active production status with confirmed inventory availability, making it the appropriate selection for replacement applications. Both parts carry RoHS compliance and UL94 V-0 flammability certification, ensuring regulatory alignment for new designs and legacy system maintenance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can DF3A-2P-2DSA be used as a direct replacement for DF3A-2P-2DSA(17)?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical and mechanical parameters, including connector type, position count, mating pitch, current rating, operating temperature range, and compliance certifications. The primary distinction is product status: the main part is obsolete while the substitute is active.

Q: What are the critical parameters that define substitution compatibility?

A: Substitution compatibility is determined by: connector series (DF3), connector type (Header), contact type (Male Pin), number of positions (2), mating pitch (2.00mm), mounting type (Through Hole), shrouding configuration (Shrouded - 4 Wall), current rating (3A), and operating temperature range (-30°C ~ 85°C).

Q: Are there packaging differences between the main part and substitute?

A: The main part DF3A-2P-2DSA(17) has unspecified packaging, while the substitute DF3A-2P-2DSA is supplied in bulk packaging. This distinction affects procurement and handling but does not impact functional compatibility.

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both parts are RoHS compliant, carry UL94 V-0 flammability rating, and share identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8536.69.4040) classifications.

Q: What is the inventory status for the substitute part?

A: The substitute part DF3A-2P-2DSA has 1659 pieces in stock as new original inventory, compared to 995 pieces for the obsolete main part.
