Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 0527460770 is the direct substitute for the obsolete 0527460733. Both parts are manufactured by Molex within the same Easy-On 52746 series and share identical mechanical, electrical, and functional specifications.

The 0527460770 offers the advantage of active product status, ensuring ongoing availability and supply chain support. The operating temperature range of the 0527460770 (-20°C ~ 85°C) is narrower than the original part (-40°C ~ 85°C); applications requiring operation below -20°C must be evaluated against specific system requirements.

Both parts maintain RoHS3 compliance and UL94 V-0 flammability certification, supporting regulatory requirements for industrial and consumer applications. The 0527460770 is supplied in Tape & Reel packaging, standard for production environments.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 0527460770 be used as a direct replacement for the 0527460733?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical position count (7), pitch (0.50mm), mounting configuration (surface mount, right angle), electrical ratings (50V, 0.5A), and mechanical features (slide lock, ZIF). The 0527460770 is the active equivalent within the Easy-On 52746 series.

Q: What is the difference in operating temperature range between these parts?

A: The 0527460733 operates from -40°C to 85°C, while the 0527460770 operates from -20°C to 85°C. Applications requiring operation below -20°C must confirm compatibility with the substitute part's lower temperature limit.

Q: Are both parts RoHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. Both the 0527460733 and 0527460770 are RoHS3 compliant and carry UL94 V-0 flammability certification.

Q: What packaging is available for the 0527460770?

A: The 0527460770 is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging, suitable for automated assembly and production environments.

Q: Do these connectors support the same cable thickness?

A: Yes. Both connectors accommodate FFC/FPC cables with 0.30mm thickness and maintain identical height above board (0.079" / 2.00mm) for consistent PCB integration.
