IPD1-13-D Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The IPD1-13-D is a 26-position rectangular connector housing from Samtec Inc.'s Mini Mate® IPD1 series. This receptacle connector features a 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch configuration with two rows and is designed for free-hanging, in-line mounting applications using crimp termination. The part is actively produced and ROHS3 compliant, making it suitable for modern electronic assemblies where space-constrained rectangular connector solutions are required. Identifying equivalent and substitute parts ensures design flexibility, supply chain continuity, and component availability across manufacturing cycles.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the IPD1-13-D is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Connector type (Receptacle)
• Contact type (Female Socket)
• Position count (26)
• Pitch specification (0.100" / 2.54mm)
• Row configuration (2 rows)
• Row spacing (0.100" / 2.54mm)
• Mounting method (Free Hanging, In-Line)
• Termination method (Crimp)
• Fastening mechanism (Latch Lock)
• Housing color (White)
• Insulation material (Polyamide PA66, Nylon 6/6)
• Compliance certifications (ROHS3)

The IPD1-13-D-K qualifies as a direct substitute based on full alignment with all critical parameters. The only functional difference is the addition of a polarizing key feature, which enhances assembly accuracy without affecting electrical or mechanical compatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the IPD1-13-D and IPD1-13-D-K are active products manufactured by Samtec Inc. and maintain full ROHS3 compliance with MSL 1 rating. Selection between these parts should be based on assembly requirements:

The IPD1-13-D provides the standard 26-position receptacle housing without polarization features. The IPD1-13-D-K includes an integrated polarizing key, which prevents incorrect mating orientation during assembly and reduces the risk of connector misalignment in production environments.

Both parts share identical electrical and mechanical specifications, pitch, row configuration, and termination methods. The choice between them depends on whether polarization control is necessary for your application's assembly process and connector reliability requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can IPD1-13-D-K replace IPD1-13-D in existing designs?

A: Yes. The IPD1-13-D-K is electrically and mechanically equivalent to the IPD1-13-D. The addition of a polarizing key does not affect compatibility with mating connectors or PCB layouts designed for the standard IPD1-13-D, provided the mating connector is also compatible with the keyed variant.

Q: What is the functional difference between these two parts?

A: The IPD1-13-D-K includes a polarizing key feature that ensures correct connector orientation during mating. The IPD1-13-D lacks this feature. Both parts are otherwise identical in electrical performance, pitch, position count, and mechanical dimensions.

Q: Are both parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. Both the IPD1-13-D and IPD1-13-D-K are ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating.

Q: Do these connectors include contacts?

A: No. Both the IPD1-13-D and IPD1-13-D-K are housings only. Contacts must be sourced separately and installed using crimp termination methods.

Q: What is the pitch specification for these connectors?

A: Both parts feature a 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch with two rows spaced 0.100" (2.54mm) apart, accommodating 26 total positions.
