Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the FX2C2-32P-1.27DSA is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Number of positions: 32
• Number of rows: 2
• Pitch spacing: 1.27mm
• Connector type: Plug
• Mounting type: Through hole
• Termination method: Solder
• Connector style: Center strip contacts
• Type: Board to board
• Contact finish: Gold
• Series: FX2

The substitute part FX2C2-32P-1.27DSA(71) maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all these parameters, with the primary distinction being packaging format and product status classification.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The FX2C2-32P-1.27DSA(71) is a direct functional equivalent to the obsolete FX2C2-32P-1.27DSA. Both connectors share identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters including position count, pitch, mounting configuration, and contact geometry.

The primary distinctions between these parts are:

• Product status: The substitute part is classified as active, ensuring continued availability and manufacturing support.
• RoHS compliance: The substitute part is RoHS compliant, whereas the original is RoHS non-compliant. This distinction is relevant for applications subject to RoHS regulatory requirements.
• Packaging: The substitute part is supplied in tray packaging, compared to unspecified packaging for the original.
• Contact finish thickness: The substitute part specifies contact finish thickness at 7.87µin (0.200µm).

Selection between these parts should be based on regulatory compliance requirements, supply chain availability, and packaging specifications for your application.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can FX2C2-32P-1.27DSA(71) be used as a direct replacement for FX2C2-32P-1.27DSA?

A: Yes. Both connectors maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters: 32 positions, 2 rows, 1.27mm pitch, through-hole solder termination, and board-to-board configuration. Physical and functional compatibility is established.

Q: What is the significance of the RoHS compliance difference?

A: The original FX2C2-32P-1.27DSA is RoHS non-compliant, while FX2C2-32P-1.27DSA(71) is RoHS compliant. RoHS compliance is mandatory for applications subject to European Union Restriction of Hazardous Substances regulations. Selection depends on your application's regulatory requirements.

Q: Does packaging format affect connector performance?

A: No. Packaging format (tray versus unspecified) does not affect electrical or mechanical performance. Packaging selection is relevant only for supply chain logistics, handling procedures, and storage requirements.

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

A: No. Both connectors are electrically equivalent. All specified electrical parameters, contact materials, and finish specifications are identical or compatible.

Q: What is the significance of contact finish thickness specification?

A: The substitute part specifies contact finish thickness at 7.87µin (0.200µm). This specification provides additional detail regarding gold plating thickness. Both parts utilize gold contact finish; the substitute part provides explicit thickness documentation.
