Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the SFM-115-T1-L-D are qualified based on strict equivalence of the following critical parameters:

• Connector type (Receptacle)
• Contact type (Female Socket)
• Number of positions (30)
• Pitch - mating (0.050" / 1.27mm)
• Number of rows (2)
• Row spacing - mating (0.050" / 1.27mm)
• Mounting type (Through Hole)
• Termination (Solder)
• Fastening type (Push-Pull)
• Contact finish - mating (Gold)
• Current rating (3.2A per Contact)
• Voltage rating (250VAC)
• Operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C)
• Material flammability rating (UL94 V-0)
• Insulation material (Liquid Crystal Polymer)
• RoHS status (ROHS3 Compliant)

All identified substitutes maintain these core electrical and mechanical specifications. Variations exist only in optional features (Board Guide, Board Lock, Mounting Flange, Mounting Hardware) and moisture sensitivity level designations, which do not affect core connector functionality for standard applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All identified substitute parts maintain full electrical and mechanical compatibility with the SFM-115-T1-L-D. Selection among these parts depends on application-specific requirements:

SFM-115-01-L-D: Direct functional equivalent with identical core specifications. Suitable for applications requiring standard receptacle connector performance without additional mechanical features.

SFM-115-01-L-D-A: Includes Board Guide feature. Select when additional mechanical alignment or guidance during mating is required.

SFM-115-01-L-D-DS: Includes Mounting Flange and Mounting Hardware. Select when panel-mount or fixed-position installation is required.

SFM-115-01-L-D-LC: Includes Board Lock feature. Select when positive mechanical retention or prevention of accidental unmating is required.

All parts are Active status and ROHS3 compliant. Selection should be based on mechanical installation requirements and available inventory for production schedules.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can SFM-115-01-L-D be used as a direct replacement for SFM-115-T1-L-D?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical and mechanical specifications including connector type, contact configuration, pitch, current rating, voltage rating, operating temperature range, and material compliance. The parts are functionally interchangeable.

Q: What is the difference between SFM-115-01-L-D-A and SFM-115-01-L-D-LC?

A: SFM-115-01-L-D-A includes a Board Guide feature for mechanical alignment during mating. SFM-115-01-L-D-LC includes a Board Lock feature for positive retention. Both maintain identical electrical specifications. Selection depends on mechanical installation requirements.

Q: Are all substitute parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. All identified substitute parts are ROHS3 compliant and share the same ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8536.69.4040) classifications.

Q: What does the "-DS" suffix indicate in SFM-115-01-L-D-DS?

A: The "-DS" suffix indicates the inclusion of Mounting Flange and Mounting Hardware features, enabling panel-mount or fixed-position installation configurations.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably in the same PCB design?

A: Parts without additional mechanical features (SFM-115-T1-L-D and SFM-115-01-L-D) are directly interchangeable. Parts with additional features (Board Guide, Board Lock, Mounting Flange) require PCB layout modifications to accommodate the additional mechanical components. Verify PCB footprint compatibility before substitution.

Q: What is the current rating per contact for all these connectors?

A: All parts are rated for 3.2A per contact at 250VAC, with operating temperature range of -55°C to 125°C.
