Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute components for the Molex 0535532079 are identified based on strict electrical and mechanical parameter matching. The following criteria determine substitution eligibility:

• Connector Type: Plug with outer shroud contacts
• Position Count: 200 positions
• Pitch Specification: 0.025" (0.64mm)
• Row Configuration: 2 rows
• Mounting Technology: Surface mount
• Contact Material & Finish: Gold plating at 10.0µin (0.25µm) thickness
• Physical Dimensions: Height above board 0.354" (9.00mm); mated stacking heights 10mm and 16mm
• Mechanical Features: Board guide and solder retention
• Compliance Standards: ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected

The substitute part Molex 0535272074 meets all these parameters while offering active product status and improved availability.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Molex 0536272074 is the direct substitute for the obsolete 0535532079. Both components share identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters: 200-position configuration, 0.025" pitch, surface mount technology, gold contact finish, and dimensional characteristics.

The primary distinction is product lifecycle status. The 0535532079 is obsolete, while the 0536272074 maintains active status with confirmed inventory availability (1106 pieces in stock). Both components maintain equivalent compliance certifications: ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected.

For new designs or production continuity, the 0536272074 is the appropriate selection. The substitute provides identical form, fit, and function while ensuring long-term supply chain reliability and manufacturer support.
