HM2P08PKP2M5GF Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The HM2P08PKP2M5GF is a 150-position backplane connector header manufactured by Amphenol ICC (FCI) in the Millipacs® series. This through-hole press-fit connector features 125 signal positions plus 25 ground positions with 2.00mm pitch and gold-plated contacts rated for 1.5A at 750Vrms across an operating range of -55°C to 125°C. The part is currently obsolete, making equivalent substitutes necessary for ongoing system support and new designs requiring compatible backplane connectivity.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution logic for the HM2P08PKP2M5GF is based on the following critical parameters:

Primary Substitution Criteria:

• Connector type (Header, Male Pins)
• Pitch (0.079" / 2.00mm)
• Mounting type (Through Hole)
• Termination method (Press-Fit)
• Operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C)
• Contact finish (Gold)

Position Configuration Consideration: The main part contains 150 total positions (125 signal + 25 ground) across 5 + 1 rows. Most substitute parts listed contain 125 positions across 5 rows, representing a reduction in ground pin density. This configuration change affects board layout and grounding architecture and must be evaluated against specific application requirements.

Voltage and Current Ratings: The original part is rated for 1.5A at 750Vrms. Substitute parts from TE Connectivity are rated for 1.5A at 500Vrms, representing a reduced voltage capability. HARTING substitutes are rated for 1A at 150V, indicating further derating. These differences must be verified against circuit requirements.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Direct Equivalent (Preferred for Existing Designs): HM2P08PKP2M5GFLF is the active production equivalent of the obsolete HM2P08PKP2M5GF. Both maintain 150-position configuration, identical electrical ratings (1.5A, 750Vrms), and full operating temperature range. The primary difference is RoHS compliance status (compliant vs. non-compliant) and packaging format (Tray vs. standard). This part provides the highest compatibility for direct replacement in existing applications.

TE Connectivity Z-PACK Series (100141-1, 3-100141-0, 5100141-1, 5100141-4, 5100785-1, 5100785-9, 5646731-1): These parts reduce position count from 150 to 125 and voltage rating from 750Vrms to 500Vrms. All maintain 1.5A current rating and -55°C to 125°C operating range. Selection among these variants depends on packaging requirements (Tube, Bulk) and RoHS compliance needs. Parts 3-100141-0, 5100141-1, 5100141-4, 5100785-1, 5100785-9, and 5646731-1 are RoHS compliant. Part 100141-1 is non-compliant. Board redesign is required to accommodate the reduced position count and modified grounding architecture.

HARTING har-bus® HM Series (17151251201, 17151252201): These parts further reduce current rating to 1.0A and voltage to 150V (or unspecified for 17151252201). Position count remains at 125 across 5 rows. Both are RoHS3 compliant. These options are suitable only for applications with significantly lower electrical requirements than the original specification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can HM2P08PKP2M5GFLF be used as a direct drop-in replacement for HM2P08PKP2M5GF? A: Yes. Both parts maintain identical position count (150), electrical ratings (1.5A, 750Vrms), pitch (2.00mm), and operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C). The primary difference is RoHS compliance status and packaging format. No circuit redesign is required.

Q: Why do most substitute parts have only 125 positions instead of 150? A: The original HM2P08PKP2M5GF includes 25 dedicated ground positions across an additional row (5 + 1 configuration). Most substitutes use a standard 5-row configuration with 125 total positions. This affects grounding distribution and requires board layout evaluation.

Q: What is the impact of the reduced voltage rating in TE Connectivity substitutes (500Vrms vs. 750Vrms)? A: The voltage reduction from 750Vrms to 500Vrms represents a 33% decrease in dielectric capability. Applications operating at or near 750Vrms cannot use these substitutes without circuit redesign or voltage derating analysis.

Q: Are HARTING parts suitable replacements? A: HARTING parts (17151251201, 17151252201) are suitable only for applications with significantly reduced electrical requirements. The 1.0A current rating and 150V voltage rating represent substantial derating compared to the original 1.5A at 750Vrms specification.

Q: What packaging options are available? A: Substitutes are available in Tray (HM2P08PKP2M5GFLF), Tube (100141-1, 5100141-1, 5100785-1, 5100785-9, 5646731-1, 17151251201, 17151252201), and Bulk (3-100141-0, 5100141-4) formats. Packaging selection affects handling, storage, and assembly processes.

Q: Which substitutes are RoHS compliant? A: HM2P08PKP2M5GFLF, 3-100141-0, 5100141-1, 5100141-4, 5100785-1, 5100785-9, 5646731-1, 17151251201, and 17151252201 are RoHS compliant. HM2P08PKP2M5GF and 100141-1 are non-compliant.
