MS-156HF(22) Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The MS-156HF(22) is an active coaxial switch receptacle connector manufactured by Hirose Electric Co Ltd, designed for 50 Ohm RF applications. This surface mount component features a 4mm plug diameter with internal switching capability and solder termination for both center contact and shield. The part is RoHS compliant and rated for operation across -40°C to 85°C with a maximum frequency of 6 GHz. Substitute parts are identified based on matching electrical specifications, mechanical compatibility, and packaging availability to support procurement flexibility and supply chain continuity.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the MS-156HF(22) are qualified based on the following critical parameters that must remain constant:

• Impedance: 50 Ohms
• Connector Type: Receptacle, Female Socket
• Connector Style: Coaxial Switch - 4mm Plug Dia
• Frequency - Max: 6 GHz
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount
• Contact Termination: Solder
• Shield Termination: Solder
• Operating Temperature: -40°C ~ 85°C
• Insertion Loss: 0.15dB
• Mating Cycles: 100
• RoHS Status: RoHS Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)

Substitutes differ only in packaging format (Tape & Reel versus Strip) and internal feature variations (presence or absence of Pick and Place Cap). All qualified substitutes maintain identical electrical performance and mechanical compatibility with the MS-156HF(22).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All qualified substitute parts maintain active product status with Hirose Electric Co Ltd and carry RoHS compliance certification. Selection between MS-156HF(22), MS-156HF, MS-156HF(01), and MS-156HF(20) should be based on packaging requirements and assembly process specifications:

• MS-156HF(22) and MS-156HF(20): Tape & Reel packaging suitable for automated pick-and-place assembly
• MS-156HF: Tape & Reel packaging without Pick and Place Cap feature
• MS-156HF(01): Strip packaging for manual assembly or alternative handling processes

All parts deliver identical electrical performance and mechanical compatibility. Inventory availability and packaging format compatibility with manufacturing equipment should guide final part selection.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can MS-156HF(20) be used as a direct replacement for MS-156HF(22)?

A: Yes. Both parts maintain identical electrical specifications (50 Ohm impedance, 6 GHz maximum frequency, 0.15dB insertion loss) and mechanical compatibility (4mm plug diameter, surface mount, solder termination). Both are supplied in Tape & Reel packaging. The primary difference is internal feature configuration.

Q: What is the difference between MS-156HF(01) and the other substitutes?

A: MS-156HF(01) is supplied in Strip packaging rather than Tape & Reel format. All electrical and mechanical parameters remain identical. Strip packaging is suitable for applications requiring manual assembly or alternative handling processes.

Q: Are all substitutes RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. MS-156HF(22), MS-156HF, MS-156HF(01), and MS-156HF(20) are all RoHS compliant with Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited).

Q: What determines compatibility between these coaxial switch receptacles?

A: Compatibility is determined by matching impedance (50 Ohms), connector type (Receptacle, Female Socket), connector style (Coaxial Switch - 4mm Plug Dia), frequency rating (6 GHz), mounting method (Surface Mount), termination type (Solder), operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 85°C), and insertion loss specification (0.15dB).

Q: Can packaging format be changed during production?

A: Packaging format selection depends on assembly equipment compatibility and procurement specifications. Tape & Reel format (MS-156HF(22), MS-156HF, MS-156HF(20)) is standard for automated assembly. Strip format (MS-156HF(01)) accommodates alternative handling requirements. Electrical and mechanical performance remains constant across all packaging options.
