Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the DF50-2830SCFA(77) is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Wire gauge specification: 28-30 AWG
• Contact termination method: Crimp
• Contact finish material: Gold
• Connector category: Rectangular Connectors
• Series compatibility: DF50
• Pin/Socket configuration: Socket
• RoHS compliance: ROHS3 Compliant
• Moisture sensitivity level: 1 (Unlimited)

The substitute part DF50-2830SCFA meets all these criteria and represents the active production equivalent within the DF50 series. The primary distinction between the main part and its substitute is product status and packaging configuration.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The DF50-2830SCFA serves as the direct substitute for the obsolete DF50-2830SCFA(77). Both components are manufactured by Hirose Electric Co Ltd and maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters. The substitute part is currently in active production status with significantly higher inventory availability (467,101 pieces versus 803 pieces), ensuring supply chain continuity.

Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and EAR99 export classification, supporting regulatory requirements for current applications. The substitute part is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) packaging, which is standard for high-volume production environments.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can DF50-2830SCFA be used as a direct replacement for DF50-2830SCFA(77)?

A: Yes. Both components share identical wire gauge (28-30 AWG), contact termination (crimp), contact finish (gold), and all other critical electrical and mechanical parameters. The primary difference is product status and packaging format.

Q: What is the significance of the (77) designation in the part number?

A: The (77) suffix in DF50-2830SCFA(77) indicates a specific packaging or configuration variant. The base part number DF50-2830SCFA without the suffix represents the current active production equivalent.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between the two parts?

A: No. Both parts maintain identical RoHS3 compliance, Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited), and EAR99 export classification. REACH status for the substitute is listed as unaffected.

Q: What packaging format should I specify for new orders?

A: The active substitute part DF50-2830SCFA is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) packaging, which is the standard format for production component procurement.

Q: Is the DF50 series still supported by Hirose Electric Co Ltd?

A: The DF50 series remains in active production. While the specific variant DF50-2830SCFA(77) is obsolete, the DF50-2830SCFA variant continues as the current production standard for this socket contact specification.
