Packaging Consideration: The substitute is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format, standard for surface mount production environments and compatible with automated assembly processes.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can DF61-2P-2.2V(23) directly replace DF61-2P-2.2V(73) in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical mating pitch (0.087" / 2.20mm), position count (2), and connector series (DF61). The electrical and mechanical interface specifications are equivalent, enabling direct substitution without design modification.

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

A: The primary difference is product status. The DF61-2P-2.2V(73) is obsolete with limited remaining inventory, while the DF61-2P-2.2V(23) is in active production with substantial stock availability. The suffix designation (73 vs. 23) indicates different manufacturing or packaging variants within the DF61 series.

Q: Are there any compliance or regulatory differences?

A: No. Both parts carry identical Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) classification of 1 (Unlimited), ECCN designation (EAR99), and HTSUS code (8536.69.4040). The substitute part includes RoHS Compliance certification, meeting current environmental and regulatory standards.

Q: What packaging format is the substitute part supplied in?

A: The DF61-2P-2.2V(23) is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format, which is standard for surface mount production and compatible with automated assembly equipment.

Q: Are the operating temperature ranges equivalent?

A: The substitute part is specified for -55°C to 105°C operating temperature range. The original part's operating temperature specification was not provided in available documentation. The substitute's temperature range covers standard industrial and commercial applications.

Q: What is the contact material and finish specification?

A: The substitute part features brass contacts with tin plating (39.4µin / 1.00µm thickness on mating surfaces). The insulation material is Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP) with UL94 V-0 flammability rating and beige color.
