Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the HM2P68PKF2W5GF is determined by strict equivalence across the following electrical and mechanical parameters:

• Connector type and style (Header, Male Pins; AB 22 style)
• Position count and ground configuration (146 total: 110 + 36 Ground)
• Pitch specification (0.079" / 2.00mm)
• Row arrangement (5 + 2)
• Mounting and termination method (Through Hole, Press-Fit)
• Electrical ratings (1.5A current, 750Vrms voltage)
• Temperature operating range (-55°C to 125°C)
• Base product family (Millipacs® series, HM2P68 base number)

Substitute parts must maintain identical mechanical fit, electrical performance, and functional compatibility with existing PCB designs and mating connectors.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The HM2P68PKF2W5GFLF is the direct equivalent substitute for the HM2P68PKF2W5GF. Both parts share identical electrical and mechanical specifications, ensuring full functional compatibility and PCB-level interchangeability.

The primary distinction between the two parts is product lifecycle status and regulatory compliance. The HM2P68PKF2W5GFLF is classified as Active and carries RoHS Compliant certification, whereas the HM2P68PKF2W5GF is Obsolete and RoHS non-compliant. For new designs, production runs, or systems requiring regulatory compliance with current environmental standards, the HM2P68PKF2W5GFLF is the appropriate selection.

Both parts maintain identical Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL 1) and share the same ECCN and HTSUS classifications, confirming regulatory and logistics equivalence.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can HM2P68PKF2W5GFLF be used as a direct replacement for HM2P68PKF2W5GF in existing designs?

A: Yes. The HM2P68PKF2W5GFLF is mechanically and electrically identical to the HM2P68PKF2W5GF. Both connectors feature the same 146-position configuration, 2.00mm pitch, 5 + 2 row arrangement, press-fit termination, and electrical ratings. No PCB redesign or connector interface modification is required.

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

A: The HM2P68PKF2W5GFLF is RoHS Compliant, meeting Directive 2011/65/EU restrictions on hazardous substances. The HM2P68PKF2W5GF is RoHS non-compliant. For applications subject to RoHS requirements or customer specifications mandating RoHS compliance, the HM2P68PKF2W5GFLF must be selected.

Q: Are there any packaging or handling differences between these parts?

A: Both parts share identical Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL 1 - Unlimited), indicating no special moisture control requirements during storage or handling. Packaging specifications are not differentiated in the technical data.

Q: Why is the HM2P68PKF2W5GF listed as obsolete?

A: Product obsolescence reflects manufacturer lifecycle decisions. The HM2P68PKF2W5GFLF, as the Active equivalent, represents the current production standard and is the recommended selection for all new applications.

Q: Are the electrical and thermal specifications identical?

A: Yes. Both parts maintain 1.5A current rating, 750Vrms voltage rating, and -55°C to 125°C operating temperature range. Electrical and thermal performance are equivalent.
