Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The SP14M2F qualifies as a direct substitute for the SP14M1F based on the following alignment of critical electrical and mechanical parameters:

Key Substitution Parameters:

• Contact Type: Pin, Signal, Stamped (identical)
• Contact Size: 16 (identical)
• Wire Gauge Range: 14-16 AWG (encompasses original 14 AWG specification)
• Wire Gauge Metric: 2.0 ~ 2.5 mm² (identical)
• Contact Termination: Crimp (identical)
• Contact Material: Copper Alloy (identical)
• Contact Finish: Gold (identical finish type)
• Contact Finish Thickness: Flash (identical)
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant (identical)
• MSL Rating: 1 (Unlimited) (identical)

The SP14M2F extends wire gauge compatibility to 14-16 AWG while maintaining all other electrical and mechanical specifications, supporting broader design flexibility. The substitute part carries Active product status, providing continued availability and manufacturing support.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The SP14M2F is the designated active substitute for SP14M1F. Both components maintain identical electrical characteristics and mechanical dimensions across all critical parameters. The SP14M2F's extended wire gauge range (14-16 AWG) provides equal or superior compatibility with existing circuit designs specified for 14 AWG termination.

Transition to SP14M2F is supported by:

• Active product status ensuring continued manufacturing and supply availability
• ROHS3 compliance alignment with regulatory requirements
• Equivalent moisture sensitivity rating and environmental performance
• Maintained gold flash finish and crimp termination specifications

The packaging difference (Cut Tape format for SP14M2F) requires confirmation of procurement and assembly process compatibility with existing supply chain workflows.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What makes SP14M2F compatible with SP14M1F applications? A: Both parts share identical contact size (16), termination method (crimp), material composition (copper alloy), finish (gold flash), and environmental ratings (MSL 1). The wire gauge specifications are compatible; SP14M1F operates at 14 AWG, and SP14M2F supports 14-16 AWG, encompassing the original specification.

Q: Why is substitution necessary? A: SP14M1F is classified as obsolete. SP14M2F provides functionally equivalent performance with active manufacturing status, ensuring uninterrupted supply and design support.

Q: Are there dimensional or performance differences? A: No dimensional or electrical performance differences exist between these components. Both operate within identical mechanical and electrical parameters for Size 16 crimp contact applications.

Q: What packaging formats are available? A: SP14M1F was supplied in unspecified packaging. SP14M2F is available in Cut Tape (CT) format. Packaging compatibility must be verified with procurement and assembly processes.

Q: Do compliance certifications match? A: Both parts are ROHS3 compliant and carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity ratings, matching regulatory and environmental requirements for industrial circular connector applications.

Q: Can SP14M2F be used in existing designs without modification? A: Yes. SP14M2F maintains all critical electrical and mechanical specifications. Verification of packaging compatibility with assembly procedures is recommended.
