  • Packaging Availability: DF5-1822SCF is available in Cut Tape (CT) packaging, supporting standard procurement workflows.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can DF5-1822SCF directly replace DF5-1822SC(51) in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both components are socket contacts within the DF5 series with identical 18-22 AWG crimp termination and tin finish specifications. No design modifications are required.

Q: What is the difference between DF5-1822SC(51) and DF5-1822SCF?

A: The primary differences are product status (obsolete vs. active) and packaging format. DF5-1822SCF includes RoHS Compliant certification. Electrical and mechanical specifications are identical.

Q: Why is DF5-1822SC(51) listed as obsolete?

A: Obsolescence indicates the part is no longer in active production. DF5-1822SCF serves as the active production equivalent within the same DF5 series.

Q: Are there packaging considerations when switching to DF5-1822SCF?

A: DF5-1822SCF is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) packaging. Verify that your procurement and assembly processes support this packaging format.

Q: Does RoHS Compliance affect compatibility?

A: RoHS Compliance on DF5-1822SCF indicates adherence to Restriction of Hazardous Substances regulations. This does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility with applications designed for DF5-1822SC(51).
