Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The DF60-1P-10.16DSA(27) qualifies as a direct substitute for the obsolete DF60-1P-10.16DSA(26) based on the following critical parameters:

Matching Parameters:

• Connector type, contact type, and position configuration (1-position header, male blade)
• Mechanical form factor: shrouded 4-wall design, through-hole mounting
• Termination method: solder with latch holder fastening
• Contact geometry: rectangular shape with 0.150" post length and 0.846" insulation height
• Contact material and finish: copper alloy with gold mating surface
• Operating temperature range: -55°C ~ 105°C
• Flammability rating: UL94 V-0
• Base series: EnerBee™ DF60

Distinguishing Factors:

• Product status: DF60-1P-10.16DSA(27) is active; DF60-1P-10.16DSA(26) is obsolete
• Insulation material: DF60-1P-10.16DSA(27) uses Polybutylene Terephthalate (PBT); DF60-1P-10.16DSA(26) uses Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP), Glass Filled
• Contact finish - post: DF60-1P-10.16DSA(27) specifies gold; DF60-1P-10.16DSA(26) does not specify
• Voltage rating: DF60-1P-10.16DSA(27) specifies 1000VAC/DC; DF60-1P-10.16DSA(26) does not specify
• Packaging: DF60-1P-10.16DSA(27) is bulk; DF60-1P-10.16DSA(26) packaging not specified
• Compliance: DF60-1P-10.16DSA(27) is ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The DF60-1P-10.16DSA(27) is the appropriate substitute for the obsolete DF60-1P-10.16DSA(26). Both parts maintain identical mechanical and electrical interface specifications, ensuring direct compatibility in existing designs.

The substitute part offers the advantage of active product status, ensuring continued availability and supply chain reliability. The DF60-1P-10.16DSA(27) meets enhanced compliance requirements with ROHS3 Compliant status and REACH Unaffected designation, compared to the RoHS Compliant status of the original part.

The insulation material difference (PBT versus LCP glass-filled) and the explicit voltage rating specification (1000VAC/DC) in the substitute part do not affect functional compatibility, as both materials meet the same UL94 V-0 flammability rating and both parts operate within the identical temperature range.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are DF60-1P-10.16DSA(26) and DF60-1P-10.16DSA(27) mechanically interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical connector type, position configuration, shrouding design, mounting method, and contact geometry. The 0.150" post length and 0.846" insulation height are identical, ensuring direct mechanical compatibility.

Q: What is the significance of the insulation material difference between the two parts?

A: The main part uses Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP) glass-filled insulation, while the substitute uses Polybutylene Terephthalate (PBT). Both materials achieve UL94 V-0 flammability rating and operate across the same temperature range (-55°C ~ 105°C). The material change does not affect electrical or mechanical performance in standard applications.

Q: Why does DF60-1P-10.16DSA(27) specify a voltage rating while DF60-1P-10.16DSA(26) does not?

A: The substitute part explicitly specifies 1000VAC/DC voltage rating. This represents a documentation enhancement rather than a functional difference. The electrical interface and contact specifications remain identical between both parts.

Q: What compliance advantages does the substitute part offer?

A: DF60-1P-10.16DSA(27) is ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected, providing enhanced regulatory alignment compared to the RoHS Compliant status of the original part. Both parts maintain EAR99 export classification and identical HTSUS coding.

Q: Is the packaging difference between the parts significant?

A: DF60-1P-10.16DSA(27) is supplied in bulk packaging, while the original part's packaging is not specified. This affects logistics and handling but does not impact component functionality or electrical performance.

Q: Can DF60-1P-10.16DSA(27) be used in new designs as well as replacement applications?

A: Yes. The active product status of DF60-1P-10.16DSA(27) makes it suitable for both new design implementations and replacement of obsolete DF60-1P-10.16DSA(26) units. The identical mechanical and electrical specifications ensure compatibility across both use cases.
