MSS-P-1.5DV Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The MSS-P-1.5DV is an active Hirose Electric Co Ltd coaxial connector plug designed for RF applications requiring 50 Ohm impedance. This male pin connector features solder contact termination and crimp shield termination, suitable for free hanging in-line mounting configurations. The connector operates across a temperature range of -40°C to 85°C with a maximum frequency rating of 1 GHz and supports 3000 mating cycles. Identifying equivalent and substitute parts is necessary when managing inventory constraints, addressing component availability, or accommodating specific packaging requirements while maintaining electrical and mechanical compatibility.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the MSS-P-1.5DV is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Manufacturer: Hirose Electric Co Ltd
• Series: MSS
• Connector Type: Plug, Male Pin
• Impedance: 50 Ohms
• Contact Termination: Solder
• Shield Termination: Crimp
• Cable Group: 1.5D-2V
• Mounting Type: Free Hanging (In-Line)
• Fastening Type: Snap-On
• Number of Ports: 1
• Product Status: Active
• RoHS Status: RoHS Compliant

The substitute part MSS-P-1.5-A(40) meets all mandatory matching parameters. Differences exist only in packaging format (Bag versus Bulk) and operating temperature range, which do not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility for applications within the overlapping temperature specification.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both MSS-P-1.5DV and MSS-P-1.5-A(40) are active products manufactured by Hirose Electric Co Ltd and carry RoHS Compliant certification. Selection between these parts should be based on the following criteria:

MSS-P-1.5DV Selection:

• Applications requiring extended operating temperature range of -40°C to 85°C
• Designs requiring documented voltage rating of 150 V
• Bag packaging format preference for component handling

MSS-P-1.5-A(40) Selection:

• Applications operating within the -30°C to 60°C temperature range
• Bulk packaging format preference for high-volume assembly operations
• Inventory management requiring alternative packaging configurations

Both connectors maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications for RF coaxial applications at 50 Ohm impedance, 1 GHz maximum frequency, and 3000 mating cycle ratings. Component selection does not impact circuit performance when operating temperature requirements fall within the overlapping specification range of -30°C to 60°C.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can MSS-P-1.5-A(40) be used as a direct replacement for MSS-P-1.5DV in all applications?

A: MSS-P-1.5-A(40) is a direct electrical and mechanical substitute for MSS-P-1.5DV when the application operates within the temperature range of -30°C to 60°C. Both connectors share identical impedance, frequency rating, contact termination, and mating cycle specifications. Applications requiring operation below -30°C or above 60°C must use MSS-P-1.5DV.

Q: What is the difference between Bag and Bulk packaging?

A: Packaging format does not affect connector performance or compatibility. Bag packaging typically accommodates smaller quantity orders and component-level handling, while Bulk packaging is optimized for high-volume manufacturing environments. Selection depends on assembly process requirements and inventory management practices.

Q: Are there any compatibility concerns with the operating temperature difference?

A: The MSS-P-1.5-A(40) operates within a narrower temperature range (-30°C to 60°C) compared to MSS-P-1.5DV (-40°C to 85°C). For applications operating within the overlapping range, both connectors are fully compatible. Applications requiring extended temperature operation must specify MSS-P-1.5DV.

Q: Do both connectors meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both MSS-P-1.5DV and MSS-P-1.5-A(40) are RoHS Compliant with Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited). Both carry ECCN EAR99 and HTSUS 8536.69.4010 classifications.

Q: What parameters must remain identical for substitution?

A: Substitution requires identical values for manufacturer, series, connector type, impedance, contact termination, shield termination, cable group, mounting type, fastening type, number of ports, and product status. Packaging format and operating temperature range may differ without affecting electrical or mechanical compatibility within the overlapping temperature specification.
