Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the HM2P88PDC161N9 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Connector type and style (Header, Male Pins, E 25 style)
• Position count and configuration (250 positions with 200 + 50 ground arrangement)
• Pitch specification (0.079" / 2.00mm)
• Row configuration (8 + 2)
• Mounting and termination method (Through Hole, Press-Fit)
• Electrical ratings (1.5 A current, 750Vrms voltage)
• Operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C)
• Contact finish specification (Gold plating)

The HM2P88PDC161N9LF meets all these parameters and serves as the direct active equivalent.
