Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the EB41-S0C2560W is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Electrical Interface: 50 positions, female gender, 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch, dual-edge configuration
• Mechanical Compatibility: Card thickness acceptance range of 0.054" ~ 0.071" (1.37mm ~ 1.80mm), through-hole mounting
• Contact Specifications: Phosphor bronze material with gold finish, cantilever contact type
• Environmental Performance: Operating temperature range of -65°C ~ 125°C
• Termination Method: Solder termination

The EB43-S0C2560W meets all these criteria and is classified as an active product, providing functional equivalence with updated material specifications for the insulation body.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The EB43-S0C2560W is the direct functional equivalent for the obsolete EB41-S0C2560W. Both connectors maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical interface parameters. The primary distinction is product status: EB43-S0C2560W is actively manufactured and supported, whereas EB41-S0C2560W is obsolete.

The insulation material differs between the two parts—EB41-S0C2560W uses Diallyl Phthalate (DAP) while EB43-S0C2560W uses Polyester Thermoplastic, both glass-filled. This material change does not affect electrical performance or mechanical compatibility within the specified operating temperature range of -65°C to 125°C.

Both parts carry identical RoHS non-compliance status and MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited). Selection should prioritize EB43-S0C2560W for new designs and ongoing production due to active availability and manufacturer support.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can EB43-S0C2560W directly replace EB41-S0C2560W in existing assemblies?

A: Yes. Both connectors are electrically and mechanically equivalent across all interface specifications. The 50-position female configuration, 0.100" pitch, dual-edge card acceptance, contact materials, and operating temperature range are identical. The insulation material change does not affect functional compatibility.

Q: What is the significance of the insulation material difference?

A: The EB41-S0C2560W uses Diallyl Phthalate (DAP) while EB43-S0C2560W uses Polyester Thermoplastic. Both are glass-filled materials suitable for the -65°C to 125°C operating range. This change reflects manufacturing evolution and does not impact electrical or mechanical performance within specified conditions.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: EB41-S0C2560W is supplied in unspecified packaging with 702 pieces in stock. EB43-S0C2560W is supplied in bulk packaging with 828 pieces in stock. Packaging format does not affect connector functionality or compatibility.

Q: Why is EB41-S0C2560W classified as obsolete?

A: Obsolescence indicates the part is no longer in active production. EB43-S0C2560W represents the current active equivalent, providing the same functional performance with ongoing manufacturer support and availability.

Q: Do both connectors meet the same compliance standards?

A: Both parts share identical RoHS non-compliance status, ECCN classification (EAR99), and HTSUS code (8536.69.4040). MSL rating is 1 (Unlimited) for both, indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions.
