Molex 0702800611 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Molex 0702800611 is an active rectangular connector header designed for through-hole mounting applications. This 46-position, 2-row connector with 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch serves board-to-board and cable interconnection requirements across automotive, general purpose, lighting, medical, and telecommunications applications. The connector features an unshrouded design with push-pull fastening and tin-plated copper alloy contacts. Substitute parts are identified to provide alternative sourcing options when the primary part is unavailable or when specific performance characteristics are required.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Molex 0702800611 is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

• Number of positions: 46
• Number of rows: 2
• Pitch - mating: 0.100" (2.54mm)
• Row spacing - mating: 0.100" (2.54mm)
• Connector type: Header, Breakaway
• Contact type: Male Pin
• Mounting type: Through Hole
• Termination: Solder
• Fastening type: Push-Pull
• Shrouding: Unshrouded
• Style: Board to Board or Cable
• Material flammability rating: UL94 V-0
• RoHS compliance: ROHS3 Compliant

The identified substitute parts PBC23DAAN and PEC23DABN meet all critical dimensional and functional requirements. Variations in contact finish, contact material, insulation material, and contact length dimensions are secondary parameters that do not prevent functional substitution in standard applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three connectors maintain active product status and ROHS3 compliance, ensuring continued availability and regulatory alignment. The Molex 0702800611 serves as the primary reference part. The Sullins PBC23DAAN and PEC23DABN are functionally equivalent alternatives that satisfy the core dimensional and electrical requirements for 46-position, 2.54mm pitch header applications.

Selection between substitute parts depends on specific application requirements not fully specified in the provided parameters. Both Sullins alternatives carry UL94 V-0 flammability ratings and are suitable for the same application categories. The primary differences—contact finish material, insulation polymer type, and contact length dimensions—are secondary considerations that do not affect basic connector functionality in standard through-hole mounting scenarios.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can PBC23DAAN and PEC23DABN be used interchangeably with the Molex 0702800611?

A: Both Sullins parts meet the critical substitution criteria: 46 positions, 2 rows, 0.100" pitch, through-hole mounting, solder termination, and push-pull fastening. They are functionally equivalent for standard applications. Differences in contact finish, contact material, and insulation material are secondary parameters that do not prevent substitution in typical board-to-board or cable interconnection applications.

Q: What are the key dimensional differences between these parts?

A: Contact length dimensions vary: the Molex part specifies 0.240" mating contact length and 0.505" overall contact length. The Sullins PBC23DAAN provides 0.230" mating and 0.450" overall length. The Sullins PEC23DABN provides 0.230" mating and 0.560" overall length. These variations may affect board clearance and mating depth in space-constrained designs.

Q: Are all three parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The Molex 0702800611 and both Sullins alternatives (PBC23DAAN and PEC23DABN) are ROHS3 compliant, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements.

Q: What is the difference between tin and gold contact finishes?

A: The Molex 0702800611 and Sullins PEC23DABN feature tin-plated contacts. The Sullins PBC23DAAN features gold-plated contacts. Gold provides superior corrosion resistance and lower contact resistance in low-signal applications. Tin is suitable for general-purpose applications with adequate contact pressure.

Q: Do these connectors have specified current or voltage ratings?

A: The Molex 0702800611 does not specify current or voltage ratings in the provided parameters. The Sullins alternatives specify 3A current rating and operate across -65°C to 125°C temperature range. Specific electrical performance requirements should be verified against application needs.

Q: What insulation materials are used?

A: The Molex 0702800611 uses Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP) with glass filling. Both Sullins alternatives use Polybutylene Terephthalate (PBT). Both materials meet UL94 V-0 flammability requirements and are suitable for the specified applications.
