HM2E31PH6090N9 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The HM2E31PH6090N9 is a 58-position (55 + 3 Power) receptacle connector from the Amphenol ICC Millipacs® series, designed for backplane applications with 0.079" (2.00mm) pitch spacing. This connector features press-fit termination, gold-plated contacts, and is rated for 1.5A at 500V across an operating temperature range of -55°C to 125°C.

The HM2E31PH6090N9 is classified as obsolete. Locating equivalent or substitute components is necessary for ongoing system support, maintenance, and new production requirements where this part is specified in legacy designs.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the HM2E31PH6090N9 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Connector type and gender (Receptacle, Female Sockets)
• Position count and configuration (58 positions: 55 + 3 Power)
• Pitch spacing (0.079" / 2.00mm)
• Row configuration (5 rows)
• Termination method (Press-Fit)
• Electrical ratings (1.5A, 500V minimum)
• Operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C minimum)
• Contact finish specification (Gold plating)

The HM2E31PH6090N9LF qualifies as a direct substitute based on matching all critical electrical and mechanical parameters while offering improved product status and compliance characteristics.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The HM2E31PH6090N9LF is the direct substitute for the obsolete HM2E31PH6090N9. Both connectors maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters including position count, pitch, termination method, and current/voltage ratings.

The HM2E31PH6090N9LF offers two significant advantages:

• Active product status ensures ongoing availability and manufacturing support
• RoHS compliance meets current regulatory requirements for new designs and production

The mounting type designation difference (Board Edge specification in the LF variant) reflects enhanced documentation of the connector's through-hole, right-angle mounting capability and does not represent a functional incompatibility.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the HM2E31PH6090N9LF directly replace the HM2E31PH6090N9 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical electrical ratings (1.5A, 500V), mechanical configuration (58 positions, 2.00mm pitch, 5 rows), termination method (press-fit), and contact finish specifications. The LF variant is functionally equivalent for all backplane connector applications.

Q: What is the significance of the "LF" suffix in the part number?

A: The "LF" designation indicates RoHS compliance and lead-free manufacturing. This represents a regulatory and manufacturing update to the base HM2E31PH6090N9 design without changes to electrical or mechanical performance.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: The HM2E31PH6090N9 packaging is unspecified in available documentation. The HM2E31PH6090N9LF is supplied in tray packaging. Confirm packaging requirements with your procurement specifications.

Q: Does the "Board Edge" designation in the HM2E31PH6090N9LF affect compatibility?

A: No. The Board Edge specification describes the connector's mounting orientation and does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility. Both connectors are right-angle, through-hole mounted receptacles for backplane applications.

Q: What is the current inventory status for these parts?

A: The HM2E31PH6090N9 (obsolete) has 873 pieces in stock. The HM2E31PH6090N9LF (active) has 997 pieces in stock. Verify current availability with your supplier for production requirements.
