The DF3E-6P-2H(54) meets all these criteria and is classified as a direct substitute within the DF3 series.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The DF3E-6P-2H(54) is the direct equivalent substitute for the DF3E-6P-2H(50). Both components share identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters. The primary distinction is product lifecycle status: the DF3E-6P-2H(50) is Obsolete, while the DF3E-6P-2H(54) is classified as Last Time Buy with higher current inventory availability (1030 Pcs vs. 937 Pcs).

The DF3E-6P-2H(54) carries RoHS Compliant certification, providing enhanced environmental compliance for applications subject to regulatory requirements. Both parts maintain equivalent performance across operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 105°C), voltage rating (250VAC), and flammability classification (UL94 V-0).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are the DF3E-6P-2H(50) and DF3E-6P-2H(54) mechanically interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both components feature identical mounting type (Surface Mount, Right Angle), shrouding configuration (Shrouded - 4 Wall), insulation height (0.220" / 5.60mm), and pitch (0.079" / 2.00mm). They are mechanically interchangeable in board-level applications.

Q: What is the difference between the two part numbers?

A: The suffix designation (50 vs. 54) indicates different production batches or packaging configurations. The DF3E-6P-2H(54) is supplied in Tube packaging and carries RoHS Compliant status, whereas the DF3E-6P-2H(50) does not specify RoHS compliance.

Q: Can I use the DF3E-6P-2H(54) as a direct replacement in existing designs?

A: Yes. The DF3E-6P-2H(54) maintains full electrical and mechanical compatibility with the DF3E-6P-2H(50) across all specified parameters, including contact configuration, termination method, and performance ratings.

Q: Why is the DF3E-6P-2H(50) marked as Obsolete?

A: Obsolete status indicates the part is no longer in active production. The DF3E-6P-2H(54) represents the current equivalent offering within the DF3 series and should be used for new designs and ongoing procurement.

Q: Are there any performance differences between these parts?

A: No. Both components deliver identical performance across operating temperature (-55°C ~ 105°C), voltage rating (250VAC), contact material (Brass with Gold finish), and flammability rating (UL94 V-0).
