Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the ELFH0225G is determined by alignment across the following critical parameters:

• Pitch and Spacing: 0.200" (5.08mm) vertical header configuration
• Termination Interface: Compatibility with solder or equivalent connection methods
• Electrical Ratings: Current and voltage specifications suitable for terminal block applications
• Physical Form Factor: Vertical through-hole mounting orientation
• Compliance Standards: RoHS and regulatory certifications (ECCN, HTSUS classification)
• Environmental Ratings: Operating temperature range and moisture sensitivity level

The substitute part 796636-2 (TE Connectivity AMP Connectors) meets these criteria through matching pitch specification, vertical orientation, through-hole mounting, and equivalent compliance certifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the ELFH0225G and 796636-2 maintain active product status and comply with current regulatory requirements. The ELFH0225G carries RoHS Compliant certification, while the 796636-2 carries ROHS3 Compliant certification, indicating alignment with current environmental standards. Both components share identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8536.69.4040) classifications and maintain MSL Level 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity ratings.

The 796636-2 provides documented electrical specifications including 15 A UL current rating and 300 V UL voltage rating, along with defined operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 110°C) and material composition (Polyamide PA66/Nylon 6/6). Selection between these parts should be based on specific application electrical requirements, PCB layout constraints, and supply chain availability.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What determines if 796636-2 can substitute for ELFH0225G?

A: Substitution is valid when both components share the same pitch specification (0.200"/5.08mm), vertical header orientation, through-hole mounting configuration, and equivalent compliance certifications (RoHS, ECCN, HTSUS). Both parts meet these criteria.

Q: Are there differences in electrical performance between these parts?

A: The 796636-2 specifies 15 A UL current rating and 300 V UL voltage rating. The ELFH0225G does not provide these specifications in the available data. Application requirements must be evaluated against the documented 796636-2 ratings.

Q: What is the significance of the pitch specification?

A: Pitch (0.200"/5.08mm) defines the center-to-center spacing between terminal positions. This parameter is critical for PCB footprint compatibility and wire routing. Both parts maintain this specification.

Q: How do RoHS and ROHS3 certifications differ?

A: Both certifications indicate compliance with Restriction of Hazardous Substances directives. ROHS3 represents the current iteration of the standard. Both parts are compliant with current environmental regulations.

Q: What does MSL Level 1 (Unlimited) indicate?

A: Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 indicates the component has unlimited shelf life without special moisture control measures during storage and handling. Both parts carry this rating.

Q: Are there inventory considerations for part selection?

A: The 796636-2 maintains significantly higher inventory (93783 units) compared to ELFH0225G (714 units). This may influence lead time and availability for high-volume applications.
