Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution compatibility for the EB41-S0C224XF is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Electrical Interface: 44 positions, 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch, dual edge configuration, female gender
• Mechanical Compatibility: Card thickness acceptance range of 0.054" ~ 0.071" (1.37mm ~ 1.80mm), through-hole mounting, flush mount flange with 0.125" (3.18mm) diameter unthreaded opening
• Contact Specifications: Phosphor bronze material with gold plating, cantilever contact type
• Environmental Performance: Operating temperature range -65°C ~ 125°C
• Termination Method: Solder termination

The EB43-S0C224XF qualifies as a direct substitute, maintaining identical electrical and mechanical parameters while differing only in insulation material composition and color designation.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The EB43-S0C224XF is a direct functional equivalent to the EB41-S0C224XF. Both connectors maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications, including position count, pitch, card thickness tolerance, contact material, and operating temperature range. The primary distinction is the insulation material composition (DAP versus polyester thermoplastic) and color designation (green versus black).

Selection of the EB43-S0C224XF is supported by its active product status, ensuring ongoing availability and manufacturing consistency. Both parts carry identical RoHS non-compliance and MSL ratings, indicating equivalent environmental handling requirements. The substitution presents no functional or performance degradation for applications requiring the EB41-S0C224XF specification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the EB43-S0C224XF directly replace the EB41-S0C224XF in existing designs?

A: Yes. The EB43-S0C224XF maintains identical electrical and mechanical parameters, including position count, pitch spacing, card thickness tolerance, contact material, and operating temperature range. The connector will interface with the same card edge and PCB mounting configuration.

Q: What is the difference between the insulation materials used in these connectors?

A: The EB41-S0C224XF uses Diallyl Phthalate (DAP) glass-filled insulation, while the EB43-S0C224XF uses polyester thermoplastic glass-filled insulation. Both materials are rated for the same operating temperature range and moisture sensitivity level.

Q: Does the color difference between green and black affect compatibility?

A: No. Color is a visual designation only and does not affect electrical or mechanical performance. Selection between green and black is based on application requirements or design preferences.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between these parts?

A: Both connectors carry identical RoHS non-compliance status and MSL ratings. No compliance advantage exists between the two parts.

Q: Why is the EB41-S0C224XF obsolete while the EB43-S0C224XF remains active?

A: Product status reflects manufacturing availability. The EB43-S0C224XF remains in active production, making it the preferred selection for new designs and ongoing system support.
