Engineering Selection Recommendations

All substitute parts listed maintain Active product status and RoHS compliance, ensuring long-term availability and regulatory conformance. Selection among substitute options depends on specific application requirements:

Amphenol ICC BERGSTIK® II Series (67996, 67997, 68602): These parts feature Phosphor Bronze contacts with operating temperature range of -65°C to 125°C or -65°C to 130°C. The 67996 series provides shorter post lengths (0.095" to 0.150"), suitable for applications with space constraints. The 67997 series offers extended post lengths (0.120" to 0.150"), accommodating deeper PCB penetration requirements. The 68602-206HLF variant provides the longest post length (0.150") for maximum board engagement.

Amphenol ICC BERGSTIK® Series (77313): These parts feature breakaway design identical to the Molex 0702800671, with Phosphor Bronze contacts and operating temperature range of -65°C to 130°C. The 77313-101-06LF, 77313-102-06LF, and 77313-118-06LF variants differ in post length (0.095", 0.135", and 0.120" respectively), providing flexibility for various PCB thickness applications.

Contact Finish Considerations: Parts designated with "06HLF" suffix indicate gold or tin finish options. Gold-finished variants (30.0µin or 15.0µin thickness) provide superior corrosion resistance. Tin-finished variants (100.0µin thickness) offer cost optimization while maintaining UL94 V-0 flammability rating.

All substitute parts are classified as MSL 1 (Unlimited), eliminating moisture sensitivity concerns during storage and handling.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can I substitute the Molex 0702800671 with any of the listed Amphenol ICC parts?

A: Yes. All listed substitute parts share identical mating pitch (0.100" / 2.54mm), position count (6), row configuration (2 rows), connector type (Header), contact type (Male Pin), mounting method (Through Hole), termination (Solder), and fastening type (Push-Pull). All maintain UL94 V-0 flammability rating and MSL 1 classification. Differences in contact length, contact material (Phosphor Bronze vs. Copper Alloy), and contact finish do not prevent functional substitution.

Q: What is the difference between BERGSTIK® and BERGSTIK® II series?

A: Both series are manufactured by Amphenol ICC (FCI) and meet the core substitution criteria. BERGSTIK® II parts (67996, 67997, 68602) are newer designs with refined specifications. BERGSTIK® parts (77313) include breakaway design matching the Molex original. Both series are Active status products with identical pitch, position count, and row spacing.

Q: How do contact post lengths affect compatibility?

A: Contact post length determines how deeply the connector penetrates the PCB. The Molex 0702800671 has a post length of 0.175" (4.45mm). Substitute parts range from 0.095" to 0.150" post length. Shorter posts suit thinner PCBs or applications with space constraints. Longer posts provide greater mechanical engagement with thicker boards. Post length selection depends on your specific PCB thickness and mechanical requirements, not electrical compatibility.

Q: What is the significance of contact finish thickness variations?

A: Contact finish thickness affects corrosion resistance and contact durability. The Molex 0702800671 specifies 30.0µin (0.76µm) gold mating finish. Substitute parts offer 15.0µin (0.38µm), 30.0µin (0.76µm), or 100.0µin (2.54µm) options. Higher thickness provides extended service life in corrosive environments. Lower thickness reduces material cost while maintaining electrical performance in standard applications. All options are electrically compatible.

Q: Are there packaging differences between substitute parts?

A: Yes. The Molex 0702800671 is supplied in Bulk packaging. Most Amphenol ICC substitutes (67996, 67997, 68602) are supplied in Bag packaging. The 77313 series (77313-101-06LF, 77313-102-06LF, 77313-118-06LF) are supplied in Bulk packaging, matching the original. Packaging affects handling and storage but does not impact electrical or mechanical compatibility.

Q: Do all substitute parts support the same operating temperature range?

A: No. The Molex 0702800671 does not specify an operating temperature range. Amphenol ICC BERGSTIK® II parts (67996 series) operate from -65°C to 125°C. BERGSTIK® II parts (67997, 68602) and BERGSTIK® parts (77313) operate from -65°C to 130°C. Select parts based on your application's temperature requirements. Higher temperature rating provides additional margin for thermal stress applications.

Q: What does the "GXT™" designation in contact finish mean?

A: GXT™ is an Amphenol ICC proprietary gold plating specification. Parts listed as "Gold or Gold, GXT™" offer either standard gold or enhanced GXT™ gold finish. Both options meet the 30.0µin or 15.0µin thickness specifications and are electrically equivalent. GXT™ represents an alternative finish option within the same thickness category.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The Molex 0702800671 is ROHS3 Compliant. All Amphenol ICC substitute parts are RoHS Compliant, meeting the same regulatory requirements. Both designations confirm absence of restricted substances (lead, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, polybrominated biphenyls, polybrominated diphenyl ethers, and bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate).

Q: What is MSL 1 (Unlimited) classification?

A: Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited) indicates the component has no moisture sensitivity restrictions. These parts do not require special dry-pack storage, desiccant handling, or bake-out procedures before soldering. All listed parts, including the Molex original and all Amphenol ICC substitutes, carry MSL 1 classification, eliminating moisture-related handling complexity.
