Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the Molex 0761458607 are qualified based on identical electrical and mechanical parameters within the Impact 76145 series. The substitution criteria are strictly limited to:

• Identical connector type (Header, Male Pins)
• Identical connector style (Impact, Guide Right)
• Identical number of positions (288)
• Identical pitch (0.053" / 1.35mm)
• Identical row and column configuration (18 × 16)
• Identical mounting type (Through Hole)
• Identical termination method (Press-Fit)
• Identical contact finish specification (Gold, 30.0µin)
• Identical color (Black)
• Identical operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 85°C)
• Identical voltage rating (30V)
• Identical material flammability rating (UL94 V-0)
• Identical RoHS and REACH compliance status

The two substitute parts listed—0761455607 and 0761459607—meet all these criteria and differ only in product status (Active vs. Obsolete) and packaging configuration (Tray).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both substitute parts 0761455607 and 0761459607 are functionally equivalent to the main part 0761458607 across all electrical and mechanical parameters. The primary distinction is product status: the main part is obsolete, while both substitutes are active components with current manufacturing support.

Selection between the two active substitutes should be based on procurement requirements and inventory availability. Part 0761455607 carries higher inventory (1126 pcs) compared to 0761459607 (706 pcs). Both parts maintain identical compliance certifications including ROHS3 compliance, REACH unaffected status, and UL94 V-0 flammability rating, ensuring regulatory continuity in applications requiring these certifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 0761455607 and 0761459607 be used interchangeably with 0761458607?

A: Yes. All three parts share identical electrical and mechanical specifications within the Impact 76145 series, including connector type, position count, pitch, mounting configuration, and contact finish. The substitutes differ only in product status and packaging.

Q: Why is the main part 0761458607 listed as obsolete?

A: Obsolescence status indicates the part is no longer in active production. The substitute parts 0761455607 and 0761459607 are active alternatives that provide equivalent functionality for new designs and ongoing procurement.

Q: What is the difference between the two substitute parts?

A: Both 0761455607 and 0761459607 are electrically and mechanically identical. The only differences are inventory levels and packaging configuration (both supplied in Tray packaging). Selection should be based on procurement availability and lead time requirements.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between the main part and substitutes?

A: No. All three parts maintain identical compliance status: ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, UL94 V-0 flammability rating, and MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity level.

Q: Can these parts be used in applications requiring -55°C to 85°C operation?

A: Yes. All three parts are rated for the full -55°C to 85°C operating temperature range and 30V voltage rating.
