Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the ELFH0421G and 796638-4 maintain active product status and comply with current RoHS regulations. The 796638-4 provides documented electrical specifications (15 A at 300 V UL rating) and defined operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 110°C), supporting applications requiring these performance parameters. Both components share identical MSL classification, ECCN designation, and HTSUS coding, confirming regulatory and trade classification alignment.

Selection between these parts should be based on application-specific requirements for position count, current capacity, and voltage rating, as well as inventory availability and lead time considerations.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What makes 796638-4 a suitable substitute for ELFH0421G?

A: Both components share the 0.200" (5.08mm) pitch specification, right-angle header orientation, through-hole mounting configuration, and identical regulatory classifications (RoHS compliant, MSL 1, EAR99, HTSUS 8536.69.4040). These parameters establish functional and mechanical compatibility.

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

A: The 796638-4 is rated for 15 A at 300 V (UL). The ELFH0421G electrical specifications are not provided in the available data. Verify that the 796638-4 rating meets or exceeds your application requirements.

Q: What is the position count for each part?

A: The ELFH0421G position count is not specified in the available documentation. The 796638-4 is a 4-position header with 4 positions per level and 1 level configuration.

Q: Do both parts have the same moisture sensitivity level?

A: Yes. Both the ELFH0421G and 796638-4 are classified as MSL 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions for storage and handling.

Q: What are the housing materials used in these components?

A: The ELFH0421G housing material is not specified. The 796638-4 uses Polyamide (PA66), Nylon 6/6 for the housing material.

Q: Are there any compliance or certification differences?

A: Both parts are RoHS compliant and share identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8536.69.4040) classifications. The 796638-4 specifies ROHS3 compliance, while the ELFH0421G indicates RoHS compliance without version specification.
