Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the P08-080HLC-E-G is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type: Must be self-mating, non-gendered, hermaphroditic
• Position Count: Must be 80 positions
• Pitch: Must be 0.031" (0.80mm)
• Row Configuration: Must be 2 rows
• Mounting Technology: Must be surface mount
• Contact Finish: Must be gold plated
• Moisture Sensitivity: Must be MSL 1 or equivalent

The LSEM-140-03.0-L-DV-A-N-K-TR from Samtec Inc. meets all substitution criteria. This connector maintains functional and mechanical compatibility while offering active product status and enhanced compliance certifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The LSEM-140-03.0-L-DV-A-N-K-TR is the qualified substitute for the P08-080HLC-E-G based on the following factors:

Functional Compatibility: Both connectors share identical electrical and mechanical specifications for connector type, position count, pitch, row configuration, and mounting technology. Gold contact finish and MSL 1 rating are maintained.

Product Status: The substitute is active production, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain stability compared to the obsolete P08-080HLC-E-G.

Compliance Certifications: The LSEM-140-03.0-L-DV-A-N-K-TR carries ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, meeting current regulatory requirements.

Physical Differences: The substitute features a lower profile (0.175" above board versus 0.329") and offers multiple mated stacking height options (6mm, 7mm, 9mm versus fixed 11.5mm). These dimensional differences require PCB layout verification for space-constrained applications.

Contact Finish Thickness: The substitute provides 10.0µin gold plating compared to 8.00µin on the original, offering enhanced durability.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the LSEM-140-03.0-L-DV-A-N-K-TR be used as a direct replacement for the P08-080HLC-E-G?

A: Yes, for electrical and functional purposes. Both connectors are 80-position, self-mating, hermaphroditic surface mount connectors with 0.031" pitch and gold plating. However, the substitute has a significantly lower profile (0.175" versus 0.329" above board), requiring verification that PCB layout and mating component clearances accommodate this dimensional change.

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

A: The primary differences are product status (active versus obsolete), profile height, mated stacking height options, and compliance certifications. The substitute offers ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status. Contact finish thickness is also slightly higher on the substitute (10.0µin versus 8.00µin).

Q: Are there any compatibility concerns with the lower profile of the substitute?

A: The reduced height above board (0.175" versus 0.329") may affect mating component clearance and PCB layout. Verify that the lower profile does not interfere with adjacent components or assembly processes in your specific application.

Q: What packaging is available for the substitute part?

A: The LSEM-140-03.0-L-DV-A-N-K-TR is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging, suitable for automated pick-and-place assembly.

Q: Does the substitute meet current regulatory requirements?

A: Yes. The LSEM-140-03.0-L-DV-A-N-K-TR is ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current environmental and regulatory standards.
