MP2-H024-41P1-S-TR30 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The MP2-H024-41P1-S-TR30 is a 24-position backplane connector header manufactured by 3M as part of the MetPak™ MP2 series. This through-hole male pin header is designed for Futurebus+® applications with press-fit termination and gold-plated contacts. The part is currently obsolete, making identification of compatible substitutes essential for legacy system maintenance and board redesigns. The primary substitute maintains electrical and mechanical compatibility while offering active product status and improved availability.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The MP2-H024-41P1-S-TR30 has one direct substitute: MP2-H024-41P1-S-LR. Substitution eligibility is determined by the following critical parameters that must remain constant:

  • Number of Positions: 24
  • Pitch: 0.079" (2.00mm)
  • Number of Rows: 4
  • Connector Type: Header, Male Pins
  • Mounting Type: Through Hole
  • Termination: Press-Fit
  • Contact Finish: Gold, 3.00µin (0.076µm)
  • Current Rating: 1.5A
  • Material Flammability Rating: UL94 V-0
  • Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)

The substitute part maintains all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. Differences exist only in product status, packaging configuration, and operating temperature maximum specification.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MP2-H024-41P1-S-LR is the direct substitute for the obsolete MP2-H024-41P1-S-TR30. Both parts share identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters including position count, pitch, contact rating, and flammability classification.

The substitute part offers the advantage of active product status with confirmed availability (684 pcs in stock versus 774 pcs for the obsolete part). The MP2-H024-41P1-S-LR carries RoHS compliance certification and REACH unaffected status, providing regulatory alignment for new designs and legacy system updates.

The operating temperature maximum differs by 20°C (105°C versus 125°C for the original). This specification variance must be evaluated against the thermal requirements of the target application. For applications operating within the -55°C to 105°C range, the substitute provides full compatibility. Applications requiring operation above 105°C require confirmation that the original part's extended temperature capability is necessary.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can MP2-H024-41P1-S-LR be used as a direct replacement for MP2-H024-41P1-S-TR30?

A: Yes, for applications operating within -55°C to 105°C. Both parts maintain identical position count (24), pitch (2.00mm), row configuration (4), contact rating (1.5A), and termination method (press-fit). The substitute is electrically and mechanically compatible across all standard operating conditions.

Q: What is the difference in operating temperature specification?

A: The original part is rated -55°C to 125°C. The substitute is rated -55°C to 105°C. The 20°C reduction in maximum temperature must be considered for high-temperature applications. Verify that your application does not require sustained operation above 105°C.

Q: Does the substitute part have better compliance certifications?

A: The MP2-H024-41P1-S-LR is certified RoHS Compliant and REACH Unaffected. The original part specifications do not include these certifications. For new designs or systems requiring regulatory compliance documentation, the substitute provides explicit certification.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: The original part (MP2-H024-41P1-S-TR30) uses tape reel packaging (TR30). The substitute (MP2-H024-41P1-S-LR) uses bulk packaging. Packaging selection depends on assembly process requirements and component handling procedures.

Q: What makes these parts substitutable?

A: Substitution is based on matching critical parameters: connector position count, pitch spacing, row configuration, contact material and finish, current rating, flammability rating, and moisture sensitivity level. Both parts maintain identical specifications across these parameters, ensuring mechanical fit and electrical performance compatibility.
