Molex 0513530807 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Molex 0513530807 is a 2.0mm WTB dual connector DIP receptacle housing designed for 8-position rectangular connector applications. This component functions as a housing unit for receptacle-type connectors in the MicroClasp 51353 series, facilitating secure electrical connections in compact form factors.

The 0513530807 carries an Obsolete product status, indicating it is no longer in active production or supported by the manufacturer. Identifying equivalent substitute parts is necessary to maintain design continuity, ensure supply chain reliability, and support ongoing maintenance and production requirements for systems utilizing this connector housing.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the Molex 0513530807 is determined by alignment of the following critical parameters:

Connector Housing Specifications:

• Pitch: 0.079" (2.00mm) — determines physical spacing and contact compatibility
• Number of Positions: 8 — defines the contact count and housing cavity configuration
• Series: MicroClasp 51353 — establishes the connector family and mechanical interface standards

Electrical and Compliance Requirements:

• Category: Rectangular Connectors (Housings) — confirms functional classification
• RoHS Status: RoHS Compliant — ensures regulatory compliance for restricted substance limitations
• ECCN: EAR99 — maintains export control classification consistency

The substitute part must maintain identical pitch, position count, and series designation to ensure mechanical and electrical interchangeability. Compliance certifications must meet or exceed the original specification.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Molex 0513530800 is the manufacturer-recommended substitute for the obsolete 0513530807. Both components share identical mechanical and electrical specifications across all critical parameters: pitch, position count, row configuration, insulation material, and operating temperature range.

The 0513530800 maintains full RoHS compliance through ROHS3 certification, exceeding the RoHS Compliant status of the original part. Both components carry the same ECCN classification (EAR99), ensuring consistent export control treatment.

The primary distinction is product status: the 0513530800 is Active and currently in production with substantial inventory availability (6912 pieces), whereas the 0513530807 is Obsolete with limited remaining stock (976 pieces). For new designs, ongoing production, and long-term supply chain stability, the 0513530800 is the appropriate selection.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Molex 0513530800 directly replace the 0513530807 in existing assemblies?

A: Yes. Both components are identical in pitch (0.079" / 2.00mm), position count (8), row spacing (0.197" / 5.00mm), and insulation material (Polyamide PA66). They are mechanically and electrically interchangeable within the MicroClasp 51353 series.

Q: What is the difference between RoHS Compliant and ROHS3 Compliant?

A: ROHS3 Compliant represents the current RoHS 3 directive standard, which supersedes earlier RoHS compliance designations. The 0513530800 meets the latest regulatory requirements, while the 0513530807 met earlier RoHS standards. Both are compliant with restricted substance limitations.

Q: Are contacts included with these housing components?

A: No. Both the 0513530807 and 0513530800 are housing units only. Contacts must be sourced separately and installed via crimp termination.

Q: What is the Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) for the substitute part?

A: The 0513530800 carries an MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions for storage or handling.

Q: Why is the 0513530807 listed as Obsolete?

A: The 0513530807 has been discontinued by Molex and replaced by the 0513530800 in the active product line. The manufacturer recommends transitioning to the substitute part for all new applications and ongoing production.

Q: Are there any differences in packaging between these parts?

A: The 0513530807 packaging is not specified in available documentation. The 0513530800 is supplied in Bulk packaging. Confirm packaging requirements with your procurement specifications.
