Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Molex 0022283113 is determined by strict alignment of the following parameters:

• Connector Type & Configuration: Header, Breakaway design with male pin contacts
• Position Count & Row Configuration: 11 positions in single-row arrangement
• Pitch Specification: 0.100" (2.54mm) mating pitch
• Mounting & Termination: Through-hole mounting with kinked pin solder termination
• Shrouding Design: Shrouded - 1 Wall configuration
• Contact Finish: Tin plating on mating and post surfaces
• Insulation Material: Polyamide (PA), Nylon, Glass Filled
• Flammability Compliance: UL94 V-0 rating

The Molex 0022280113 qualifies as a direct substitute based on matching all critical parameters. The primary distinction is product status: the substitute part is active and available, whereas the original part is obsolete. Secondary differences in fastening type (Friction Lock vs. Push-Pull) and series designation (KK254, 42227 vs. KK254, 42225) do not affect functional interchangeability within the specified parameter constraints.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Molex 0022280113 is the appropriate substitute for the obsolete Molex 0022283113 based on the following engineering criteria:

Product Status & Availability: The original part is classified as obsolete, while the substitute is active and maintains current inventory (745 pcs in stock). This ensures procurement continuity and long-term supply chain reliability.

Compliance & Certification: Both parts maintain equivalent compliance profiles. The original part carries ROHS3 Compliant status, while the substitute carries RoHS Compliant status. Both achieve UL94 V-0 flammability rating and share identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8536.69.4040) classifications, confirming regulatory equivalence across automotive, medical, and telecommunications applications.

Functional Interchangeability: All critical electrical and mechanical parameters align precisely, including connector geometry, contact configuration, pitch specification, termination method, and material composition. The fastening mechanism differs (Friction Lock vs. Push-Pull), but this represents a design evolution within the same product family and does not compromise functional compatibility in board-to-board or cable applications.

Thermal & Environmental Performance: The substitute part specifies operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 105°C) and voltage rating (600VAC/DC), providing defined performance boundaries absent from the original part specification. These parameters confirm suitability for the stated application domains.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Molex 0022280113 be used as a direct replacement for the 0022283113 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical pitch (0.100" / 2.54mm), position count (11), row configuration (1), mounting type (through-hole), shrouding design (1 wall), termination method (kinked pin solder), contact finish (tin), and insulation material (polyamide nylon glass-filled). The fastening mechanism differs (Friction Lock vs. Push-Pull), but this does not affect mating compatibility or electrical performance.

Q: What is the significance of the fastening type difference?

A: The original part uses Push-Pull fastening, while the substitute uses Friction Lock. Both mechanisms secure the mated connector pair; the difference reflects design evolution within the KK254 series. Friction Lock provides positive retention through mechanical interference rather than push-pull latching. This change does not affect electrical continuity or mechanical fit in standard board-to-board applications.

Q: Are there compliance or regulatory differences between the two parts?

A: Both parts maintain equivalent compliance for automotive, medical, and telecommunications applications. The original carries ROHS3 Compliant status; the substitute carries RoHS Compliant status. Both achieve UL94 V-0 flammability rating. ECCN and HTSUS classifications are identical. The substitute provides explicit operating temperature (-40°C ~ 105°C) and voltage (600VAC/DC) specifications, offering defined performance parameters.

Q: What inventory status should influence procurement decisions?

A: The original part (0022283113) is obsolete with 877 pcs in stock. The substitute (0022280113) is active with 745 pcs in stock. For new designs or long-term production, the active substitute ensures ongoing availability and supply chain continuity. For legacy system maintenance, existing inventory of the original part may be utilized until depletion.

Q: Are there any package or dimensional considerations for board redesign?

A: No. Both parts share identical dimensional specifications: contact length (0.295" mating / 0.135" post), overall contact length (0.555"), and insulation height (0.337"). PCB footprints and mounting hole patterns are interchangeable without layout modification.
