Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three substitute parts maintain active product status and meet UL94 V-0 flammability requirements, ensuring compliance with standard safety specifications. The Molex 0010897600 is ROHS3 compliant, as is the Sullins PBC30DAAN. The Amphenol ICC parts (77313-101-60LF and 77313-118-60LF) are RoHS compliant.

Contact length variations exist across the substitute options. The Molex original features a mating contact length of 0.240" (6.10mm), while all substitutes provide 0.230" (5.84mm). Post contact lengths differ: Molex at 0.107" (2.71mm), Amphenol 77313-101-60LF at 0.095" (2.41mm), and both Amphenol 77313-118-60LF and Sullins PBC30DAAN at 0.120" (3.05mm). These dimensional variations must be evaluated against specific PCB design and mating connector specifications.

Contact finish thickness on the mating surface differs between the Sullins PBC30DAAN (10.0µin / 0.25µm) and the other parts (30.0µin / 0.76µm). Insulation material composition varies: Molex uses Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP) glass-filled, Amphenol ICC uses Thermoplastic, and Sullins uses Polybutylene Terephthalate (PBT).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Amphenol ICC 77313-101-60LF and 77313-118-60LF be used interchangeably with the Molex 0010897600?

A: Both Amphenol ICC parts meet the core electrical and mechanical requirements for substitution. The primary difference between them is post contact length: 77313-101-60LF provides 0.095" (2.41mm) while 77313-118-60LF provides 0.120" (3.05mm). Selection depends on PCB hole depth and mating connector specifications.

Q: What are the key dimensional differences between the main part and substitutes?

A: Mating contact length is the primary dimensional variance. The Molex 0010897600 features 0.240" (6.10mm) mating contact length, while all substitutes provide 0.230" (5.84mm). Post contact lengths range from 0.095" to 0.120" across the substitute options. Insulation height also differs: Molex at 0.090" (2.29mm) versus 0.100" (2.54mm) for all substitutes.

Q: Are there compliance differences between the original and substitute parts?

A: The Molex 0010897600 and Sullins PBC30DAAN are both ROHS3 compliant. The Amphenol ICC parts are RoHS compliant. All parts meet UL94 V-0 flammability requirements. Moisture sensitivity levels differ: Molex and Amphenol ICC parts are rated MSL 1 (Unlimited), while Sullins PBC30DAAN is Not Applicable.

Q: What is the difference in contact material between the original and substitutes?

A: The Molex 0010897600 uses Copper Alloy contacts, while all three substitute parts use Phosphor Bronze contacts. Both materials are suitable for standard interconnection applications with equivalent electrical performance.

Q: Which substitute part offers the closest dimensional match to the original Molex part?

A: The Amphenol ICC 77313-118-60LF provides the closest overall contact length match at 0.450" (11.43mm) compared to the Molex 0010897600 at 0.437" (11.10mm). However, all substitutes meet the core functional requirements for board-to-board and cable interconnection.

Q: Are operating temperature ranges specified for all parts?

A: The Molex 0010897600 does not specify an operating temperature range. The Amphenol ICC parts operate from -65°C to 130°C, while the Sullins PBC30DAAN operates from -65°C to 125°C. Application-specific temperature requirements should be evaluated against these specifications.
