L77HDCG62SOL2

Part Overview

The L77HDCG62SOL2 is a 62-position D-Sub High Density receptacle connector manufactured by Amphenol ICC for commercial applications. This connector features female sockets with vertical through-hole solder termination and a tin-plated steel shell. The product is actively manufactured and widely stocked, with 661 pieces currently available in inventory. Alternative connector models may be required when application-specific requirements, such as panel mounting capability, higher current ratings, or extended operating temperature ranges, necessitate substitution from the standard configuration.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the L77HDCG62SOL2 and 180-M62-213R001 are active products with RoHS compliance and REACH unaffected status, suitable for contemporary commercial applications. The L77HDCG62SOL2 (Amphenol ICC) is the primary specification with proven inventory availability (661 units). The 180-M62-213R001 (NorComp Inc.) serves as a functionally equivalent substitute when the application requires panel mounting capability, operates at temperatures exceeding 105°C, or demands current handling above 3A. Both connectors maintain identical 62-position, 3-row high-density D-Sub pinout architecture and solder termination, ensuring mechanical and electrical interchangeability within their respective mounting configurations. The substitute exhibits higher current capacity (5A versus 3A) and extended temperature operating range (-55°C to 125°C versus -55°C to 105°C), while maintaining equivalent gold-flash contact finish and UL94 V-0 flammability compliance. The NorComp connector features additional shielding, which may or may not be required depending on EMI specifications of the target application.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 180-M62-213R001 directly replace the L77HDCG62SOL2 in existing designs?

A: Direct replacement is possible when the PCB layout accommodates panel mounting or when the design uses both through-hole and panel-mount termination options. The mounting compatibility must be verified against the specific application's mechanical requirements. Pinout and solder termination are identical across both connectors.

Q: What are the key electrical differences between these connectors?

A: The primary electrical difference is current capacity: L77HDCG62SOL2 is rated at 3A, while 180-M62-213R001 is rated at 5A. Both maintain 250V voltage rating specifications, though the NorComp connector does not specify a voltage rating in the provided data. Both feature gold-flash contact finish and maintain identical positional density and layout.

Q: Does the dielectric material change affect mechanical compatibility?

A: The dielectric material differs between the two connectors (Thermoplastic, Glass Filled versus Polyamide PA6T Nylon 6T); however, both maintain UL94 V-0 flammability compliance. The physical dimensions and connector envelope remain compatible with D-Sub Size 4 (DC, C) high-density specifications, ensuring mechanical fit with mating connectors.

Q: What temperature-related applications favor the 180-M62-213R001?

A: The NorComp 180-M62-213R001 operates across an extended temperature range (-55°C to 125°C) compared to the Amphenol connector (-55°C to 105°C). Applications requiring sustained operation above 105°C or thermal cycling across the extended range require the substitute part.

Q: Are there RoHS or regulatory compliance differences?

A: Both connectors are RoHS compliant, with 180-M62-213R001 meeting ROHS3 specifications. Both maintain REACH unaffected status and EAR99 export classification, suitable for standard commercial applications without additional regulatory burden.

Q: How does the contact form change from stamped to machined affect performance?

A: Contact form change from stamped (L77HDCG62SOL2) to machined (180-M62-213R001) typically provides enhanced contact stability and consistent engagement force. Both maintain gold-flash finish and are compatible with standard D-Sub mating contacts.
