Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the MPTC-02-16-02-01-01-L-RA-SD is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

  • Manufacturer series: PowerStrip™ 30 MPTC
  • Number of positions: 20 (16 + 4 Power)
  • Number of rows: 4
  • Row spacing: 0.079" (2.00mm)
  • Connector type: Header
  • Contact type: Male Blade; Male Pin
  • Mounting type: Through Hole, Right Angle
  • Shrouding: Shrouded - 4 Wall
  • Termination: Solder
  • Fastening type: Locking Ramp
  • Contact shape: Rectangular, Square
  • Insulation material: Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP)
  • Operating temperature range: -55°C ~ 125°C
  • Material flammability rating: UL94 V-0

The substitute part MPTC-02-16-02-01-03-L-RA-SD meets all these criteria and is therefore electrically and mechanically interchangeable.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the MPTC-02-16-02-01-01-L-RA-SD and MPTC-02-16-02-01-03-L-RA-SD maintain active product status within the PowerStrip™ 30 MPTC series. Both parts are ROHS3 compliant and carry UL94 V-0 material flammability certification. The parts are classified under identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8536.69.4040) codes. Selection between these parts may be based on inventory availability, lead time, or procurement source preferences, as they are electrically and mechanically equivalent.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are MPTC-02-16-02-01-01-L-RA-SD and MPTC-02-16-02-01-03-L-RA-SD directly interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical and mechanical specifications including connector type, position count, row configuration, row spacing, mounting orientation, shrouding design, contact geometry, termination method, and fastening mechanism. They are suitable for direct substitution in applications designed for either part number.

Q: What determines substitution eligibility for PowerStrip™ 30 MPTC connectors?

A: Substitution is valid when parts maintain equivalence across position count, row configuration, row spacing, mounting type, shrouding style, contact type and geometry, termination method, and fastening type. Deviations in any of these parameters disqualify substitution.

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance and certification requirements?

A: Yes. Both parts are ROHS3 compliant, carry UL94 V-0 material flammability rating, and operate across the identical temperature range of -55°C to 125°C. Both are classified under EAR99 export control and 8536.69.4040 HTSUS code.

Q: What is the packaging format for these parts?

A: Both parts are supplied in tray packaging.

Q: Are there differences in moisture sensitivity between these parts?

A: The MPTC-02-16-02-01-01-L-RA-SD is rated MSL 1 (Unlimited). The MPTC-02-16-02-01-03-L-RA-SD is rated Not Applicable. Both ratings indicate minimal or no moisture sensitivity concern for standard handling and storage.
