Engineering Selection Recommendations

The DF62C-3S-2.2C(11) is the direct equivalent for the obsolete DF62A-3S-2.2C(11). Both parts share identical electrical and mechanical specifications, ensuring functional interchangeability in existing designs. The DF62C variant offers two significant advantages: active product status with confirmed supply availability and RoHS compliance, meeting current regulatory requirements for new designs and manufacturing processes. Selection of the DF62C-3S-2.2C(11) eliminates obsolescence risk while maintaining full compatibility with existing connector interfaces and assembly procedures.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are DF62A-3S-2.2C(11) and DF62C-3S-2.2C(11) mechanically interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both parts maintain identical pitch (2.20mm), row spacing (2.00mm), position count (3), mounting type (free hanging in-line), and fastening mechanism (latch lock). They are direct mechanical equivalents.

Q: What is the difference between the DF62A and DF62C series?

A: The primary differences are product status and regulatory compliance. The DF62A is obsolete and RoHS non-compliant, while the DF62C is active and RoHS compliant. All electrical and mechanical parameters remain identical.

Q: Can I use DF62C-3S-2.2C(11) in place of DF62A-3S-2.2C(11) in existing assemblies?

A: Yes. The DF62C variant is a direct substitute with no design modifications required. Existing mating connectors, contact sets, and assembly procedures remain compatible.

Q: Does the packaging differ between these parts?

A: The DF62A is supplied without specified packaging, while the DF62C is supplied in bulk packaging. This does not affect functional or mechanical compatibility.

Q: Are contacts included with these connector housings?

A: No. Both the DF62A-3S-2.2C(11) and DF62C-3S-2.2C(11) are housings only. Contacts must be sourced separately and crimped into the housing.
