Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the RAVHD19 are identified based on strict electrical and mechanical parameter alignment. The primary substitution criteria include:

Critical Matching Parameters:

• Connector Type: HDMI (19-position standard)
• Gender: Receptacle
• Mounting Configuration: Through Hole, Right Angle, Vertical orientation
• Termination Method: Solder
• Contact Count: 19 positions
• Shielding: Shielded construction
• Contact Finish: Gold plating
• Insulation Color: Black

Electrical Compatibility Parameters:

• Current Rating: 0.5A minimum
• Voltage Rating: 40V minimum
• Mating Cycle Capability: 5000 cycles minimum

Compliance Requirements:

• RoHS3 Compliance
• MSL Rating: 1 (Unlimited)

The KDMIX-SL1-NS-WS-B15 from Kycon, Inc. satisfies all critical matching parameters and exceeds electrical performance specifications, making it a direct functional equivalent for the obsolete RAVHD19.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The KDMIX-SL1-NS-WS-B15 is the qualified substitute for the obsolete RAVHD19. Selection rationale is based on the following engineering factors:

Functional Equivalence: Both connectors are 19-position HDMI receptacles with identical mounting configurations (through-hole, right-angle, vertical orientation) and solder termination. Mechanical and electrical interfaces are fully compatible.

Performance Enhancement: The KDMIX-SL1-NS-WS-B15 provides superior mating cycle capability (10000 cycles versus 5000 cycles), extending component service life in applications requiring frequent connection cycling.

Compliance Alignment: Both components maintain ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 (Unlimited) ratings, ensuring compatibility with modern manufacturing and storage requirements.

Product Status: The KDMIX-SL1-NS-WS-B15 maintains active production status with established supply chain availability (10507 units in stock), eliminating obsolescence risk associated with the RAVHD19.

Packaging Consideration: The KDMIX-SL1-NS-WS-B15 is supplied in tray packaging, suitable for automated assembly processes and bulk component handling.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the KDMIX-SL1-NS-WS-B15 be used as a direct replacement for the RAVHD19 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both connectors are 19-position HDMI receptacles with identical mounting types (through-hole, right-angle, vertical), termination methods (solder), and electrical ratings (0.5A, 40V minimum). Mechanical footprints and pin configurations are compatible, allowing direct substitution without PCB redesign.

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

A: The primary differences are product status and mating cycle rating. The RAVHD19 is obsolete with 5000 mating cycles, while the KDMIX-SL1-NS-WS-B15 is active production with 10000 mating cycles. The KDMIX-SL1-NS-WS-B15 also features stainless steel shielding versus brass, and includes UL94 V-0 flammability certification.

Q: Are there any voltage or current limitations when substituting the KDMIX-SL1-NS-WS-B15?

A: No. The KDMIX-SL1-NS-WS-B15 maintains the 0.5A current rating of the RAVHD19. While the KDMIX-SL1-NS-WS-B15 voltage rating is not specified in available documentation, both connectors are designed for standard HDMI applications and are electrically compatible.

Q: Does the packaging format affect component selection?

A: The KDMIX-SL1-NS-WS-B15 is supplied in tray packaging, which is standard for automated assembly operations. If reel packaging is required for specific manufacturing processes, alternative packaging configurations should be confirmed with the supplier.

Q: Are both connectors RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both the RAVHD19 and KDMIX-SL1-NS-WS-B15 are ROHS3 compliant and carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity ratings, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements.

Q: What is the mating cycle advantage of the KDMIX-SL1-NS-WS-B15?

A: The KDMIX-SL1-NS-WS-B15 is rated for 10000 mating cycles compared to 5000 cycles for the RAVHD19. This doubled cycle rating extends component lifespan in applications involving frequent connection and disconnection operations.
