Molex 0465572147 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Molex 0465572147 is an 80-position high-density array rectangular connector designed for surface mount applications. This connector features a female receptacle configuration with gold-plated contacts and board guide support, operating at a 0.050" (1.27mm) pitch across 4 rows. The part is classified as obsolete, making identification of active equivalent components essential for ongoing production and design continuity. Substitute parts must maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications to ensure direct compatibility in existing circuit board layouts and mating applications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Molex 0465572147 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Connector type and gender (High Density Array, Female)
• Position count (80 positions)
• Contact pitch (0.050" / 1.27mm)
• Row configuration (4 rows)
• Mounting technology (Surface Mount)
• Contact material and finish specifications (Gold, 30.0µin thickness)
• Physical dimensions (Height above board, mated stacking heights)
• Compliance certifications (RoHS3, REACH status)

The Molex 0465572145 qualifies as a direct substitute based on identical alignment across all these parameters. The primary distinction is product status and packaging configuration, not electrical or mechanical performance.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

• Equivalent moisture sensitivity classification (MSL 1)
• Standardized Tape & Reel packaging suitable for automated assembly processes

No functional or compatibility compromises result from this substitution. The parts are electrically and mechanically interchangeable for all applications where the 0465572147 was originally specified.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Molex 0465572145 be used as a direct replacement for the 0465572147 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The 0465572145 is a direct substitute with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. No design modifications are required. Both parts share the same connector type, position count, pitch, row configuration, contact finish, and physical dimensions.

Q: What is the primary difference between these two part numbers?

A: The 0465572147 is classified as obsolete, while the 0465572145 is active. The 0465572145 is supplied in Tape & Reel packaging, whereas the main part packaging is not specified. All functional and performance characteristics are identical.

Q: Are there any compliance or certification differences?

A: No. Both parts maintain identical RoHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status. Moisture sensitivity levels are equivalent at MSL 1 (Unlimited).

Q: Does the Tape & Reel packaging of the 0465572145 affect compatibility?

A: No. Packaging format does not affect connector performance or mating characteristics. Tape & Reel packaging is standard for automated surface mount assembly and does not alter the physical or electrical properties of the connector.

Q: Are the contact finish specifications identical?

A: Yes. Both parts feature gold-plated contacts with 30.0µin (0.76µm) thickness, ensuring equivalent electrical performance and corrosion resistance.

Q: Can these connectors mate with the same complementary components?

A: Yes. The identical pitch (0.050"), position count (80), row configuration (4), and height specifications ensure compatibility with all mating connectors designed for the 0465572147.
