Molex 0022285093 Rectangular Connector Header - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Molex 0022285093 is a vertical rectangular connector header designed for through-hole mounting applications. This 9-position, single-row header operates at a 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch and features male pins with gold-plated mating contacts and tin-plated posts. The connector is classified as Active product status and is widely used in automotive, medical, telecommunications, and general-purpose applications. Equivalent and substitute parts are identified when component availability is limited, supply chain disruptions occur, or design flexibility permits alternative sourcing within specified electrical and mechanical parameters.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the Molex 0022285093 is permissible when the alternative part maintains the following critical parameters:

• Pitch - Mating: 0.100" (2.54mm)
• Number of Positions: 9
• Number of Rows: 1
• Connector Type: Header
• Contact Type: Male Pin
• Mounting Type: Through Hole
• Shrouding: Unshrouded
• Style: Board to Board or Board to Board/Cable compatible
• Fastening Type: Push-Pull
• Material Flammability Rating: UL94 V-0 or equivalent
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)

The Preci-Dip 350-10-109-00-001101 meets these substitution criteria. Both connectors share identical mating pitch, position count, row configuration, and mounting methodology. Both are Active products with ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating. Variations in contact geometry, contact finish thickness, insulation material composition, and operating temperature specifications do not preclude substitution when the primary functional and electrical interface requirements are satisfied.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the Molex 0022285093 and Preci-Dip 350-10-109-00-001101 are Active products with ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating, meeting regulatory and environmental requirements for industrial applications. Selection between these parts is determined by application-specific requirements and supply availability.

The Molex 0022285093 features kinked pin termination with tin-plated posts, suitable for applications requiring specific post finish characteristics. The Preci-Dip 350-10-109-00-001101 provides specified electrical ratings (3A at 150VDC) and operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C), offering defined performance parameters for temperature-sensitive or current-critical applications.

Both connectors maintain identical mating pitch (0.100"), position count (9), row configuration (1), and through-hole mounting methodology, ensuring mechanical and electrical interface compatibility at the board level. Insulation material differences (polyamide versus polyester) do not affect substitution eligibility when flammability ratings and moisture sensitivity levels are equivalent.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Preci-Dip 350-10-109-00-001101 directly replace the Molex 0022285093 in existing designs?

A: Yes, when the design does not impose specific requirements on post finish material or contact geometry. Both connectors share identical mating pitch (0.100"), position count (9), row configuration, mounting type (through hole), and fastening mechanism (push-pull). The primary interface compatibility is maintained.

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

A: The Molex 0022285093 features kinked pin termination with tin-plated posts and polyamide insulation. The Preci-Dip 350-10-109-00-001101 features solder termination with gold-plated posts and polyester insulation. The Preci-Dip part provides specified electrical ratings (3A, 150VDC) and operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C), while the Molex part does not specify these parameters.

Q: Are both connectors RoHS compliant?

A: Yes, both the Molex 0022285093 and Preci-Dip 350-10-109-00-001101 are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting regulatory requirements for restricted substance use.

Q: What is the moisture sensitivity level for these connectors?

A: Both connectors have a Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) of 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions during storage or handling.

Q: Can these connectors be used interchangeably in automotive applications?

A: Both connectors are rated for automotive applications and maintain equivalent flammability ratings (UL94 V-0). Interchangeability depends on specific application requirements regarding electrical ratings, operating temperature, and post finish specifications.

Q: What is the difference in contact finish between the two parts?

A: The Molex 0022285093 has gold-plated mating contacts (15.0µin thickness) and tin-plated posts (100.0µin thickness). The Preci-Dip 350-10-109-00-001101 has gold-plated mating contacts (10.0µin thickness) and gold-plated posts (10.0µin thickness). Both provide corrosion resistance suitable for general-purpose and industrial applications.
