DN10-50S(50) Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The DN10-50S(50) is a 50-position D-Type receptacle connector manufactured by Hirose Electric Co Ltd, featuring female sockets with right-angle through-hole mounting and solder termination. This connector is classified as Obsolete, making identification of functionally equivalent alternatives essential for ongoing system support and component procurement.

The DN series D-Type receptacle is designed for applications requiring reliable signal transmission across 50 contact positions with a 0.100-inch pitch layout. The connector's aluminum shell with silver plating, gold-plated contacts, and UL94 V-0 flammability rating support industrial and commercial applications operating across the -55°C to 85°C temperature range.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The DN10-50S(70) qualifies as a direct functional substitute for the DN10-50S(50) based on the following critical parameters:

Matching Parameters (Substitution Basis):

• Connector type: Receptacle, Female Sockets
• Number of positions: 50
• Number of rows: 2
• Mounting type: Through Hole, Right Angle
• Shell size and connector layout: 0.100 Pitch x 0.100 Row to Row
• Termination method: Solder
• Contact type: Signal
• Contact finish: Gold
• Contact finish thickness: 11.8µin (0.30µm)
• Current rating: 3A
• Voltage rating: 200V (DN10-50S(70) rated 200VAC)
• Material flammability rating: UL94 V-0
• Contact material: Phosphor Bronze
• Dielectric material: Polybutylene Terephthalate (PBT)
• Moisture sensitivity level: 1 (Unlimited)

Variation (Non-Critical Difference):

• Shell material finish: DN10-50S(50) features silver plating; DN10-50S(70) features nickel plating

The difference in shell plating material does not affect electrical performance or mechanical compatibility. Both finishes provide corrosion resistance and maintain equivalent contact integrity for the specified operating conditions.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The DN10-50S(70) is the direct functional equivalent for DN10-50S(50) applications. Selection should be based on the following factors:

Product Status Consideration: The DN10-50S(50) is classified as Obsolete, while the DN10-50S(70) is designated Last Time Buy. This status difference indicates that DN10-50S(70) represents the current production variant and should be prioritized for new designs and ongoing procurement.

Compliance and Certification: Both connectors meet UL94 V-0 flammability requirements and maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The DN10-50S(70) carries ROHS3 compliance, which aligns with current regulatory standards, whereas the DN10-50S(50) carries RoHS compliance. Both are acceptable for applications requiring RoHS certification.

Shell Plating Difference: The transition from silver plating to nickel plating on the shell does not impact electrical performance or mechanical fit. Both finishes provide equivalent corrosion resistance for the specified operating environment (-55°C to 85°C).

Inventory and Availability: The DN10-50S(70) has higher current inventory (1,150 pcs) compared to DN10-50S(50) (833 pcs), supporting supply chain continuity.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can DN10-50S(70) be used as a direct replacement for DN10-50S(50)?

A: Yes. The DN10-50S(70) is a direct functional equivalent. Both connectors share identical contact count (50 positions), mounting configuration (through-hole right-angle), termination method (solder), electrical ratings (3A, 200V), and material specifications. The only difference is the shell plating material (silver versus nickel), which does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility.

Q: What is the significance of the shell plating difference?

A: The DN10-50S(50) features aluminum shell with silver plating, while the DN10-50S(70) features aluminum shell with nickel plating. Both finishes provide corrosion resistance and maintain equivalent contact integrity across the operating temperature range. The plating difference does not impact connector performance or interchangeability.

Q: Why is DN10-50S(50) marked as Obsolete?

A: The Obsolete status indicates that the DN10-50S(50) is no longer in active production. The DN10-50S(70) represents the current production variant and should be used for new designs and ongoing system support.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these connectors?

A: The DN10-50S(50) packaging is not specified in the data. The DN10-50S(70) is supplied in Tray packaging. Confirm packaging requirements with your procurement specifications.

Q: Do both connectors meet current regulatory standards?

A: Yes. The DN10-50S(50) is RoHS Compliant, and the DN10-50S(70) is ROHS3 Compliant. ROHS3 represents the current regulatory standard. Both connectors meet UL94 V-0 flammability requirements and carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity ratings.

Q: What is the contact finish specification for both connectors?

A: Both connectors feature gold contact finish with a thickness of 11.8µin (0.30µm). This specification is identical across both variants and ensures equivalent electrical performance and contact reliability.
