IPD1-08-S-R Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The IPD1-08-S-R is an 8-position rectangular connector housing manufactured by Samtec Inc. as part of the Mini Mate® IPD1 series. This receptacle connector features a 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch and is designed for free-hanging in-line mounting with crimp contact termination and latch lock fastening. The part is currently active in production with 1014 units in stock. Equivalent and substitute parts are identified when component availability is limited, supply chain disruptions occur, or design flexibility permits alternative connector housings that maintain the same electrical and mechanical interface specifications.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the IPD1-08-S-R are qualified based on the following critical parameters that determine functional interchangeability:

Connector Type & Contact Configuration: All substitutes must be receptacle housings with female socket contacts
Position Count & Pitch: All substitutes must accommodate 8 positions at 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch
Mounting & Termination: All substitutes must support free-hanging in-line mounting with crimp termination and latch lock fastening
Single Row Configuration: All substitutes must maintain a single-row layout

The following parts meet these substitution criteria:

0050579708 (Molex SL 70066 series)
104257-7 (TE Connectivity AMP Connectors AMPMODU MTE series)

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three parts maintain active product status and comply with RoHS requirements, making them suitable for applications requiring environmental compliance. The IPD1-08-S-R and its substitutes share identical electrical and mechanical interface specifications across connector type, position count, pitch, mounting configuration, and termination method.

Selection between these parts should be based on:

Availability: The Molex 0050579708 offers the highest inventory level at 29,681 units
Compliance Requirements: All parts meet RoHS standards; TE Connectivity 104257-7 provides the widest operating temperature range (-65°C ~ 105°C)
Material Specifications: Insulation material differs across manufacturers; verify material compatibility with application requirements
Color Consideration: The IPD1-08-S-R is white; both substitutes are black

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Molex 0050579708 directly replace the Samtec IPD1-08-S-R?

A: Yes, the Molex 0050579708 is a parametric equivalent. Both parts share identical specifications for connector type, position count, pitch, mounting type, contact termination, and fastening mechanism. The primary differences are manufacturer, series designation, insulation material, and housing color.

Q: What are the key differences between the three parts?

A: The critical shared parameters are: 8-position receptacle, 0.100" pitch, female socket contacts, crimp termination, latch lock fastening, and free-hanging in-line mounting. Differences include insulation material composition, operating temperature range, housing color, and manufacturer series. All three maintain MSL 1 rating and RoHS compliance.

Q: Does the housing color difference affect electrical performance?

A: Housing color is a cosmetic parameter and does not affect electrical performance or mechanical compatibility. Selection should be based on application requirements and design specifications.

Q: Are the contacts included with these connector housings?

A: No. All three parts are connector housings only. Contacts must be sourced separately and are not included in the package.

Q: Which substitute offers the best temperature performance?

A: The TE Connectivity 104257-7 provides the widest operating temperature range at -65°C ~ 105°C, compared to the Molex 0050579708 at -40°C ~ 105°C. The Samtec IPD1-08-S-R does not specify an operating temperature range.

Q: Are all three parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The Samtec IPD1-08-S-R and Molex 0050579708 are ROHS3 compliant. The TE Connectivity 104257-7 is RoHS compliant. All three meet environmental compliance standards.
