Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Molex 0761503026 is determined by the following critical parameters:

Primary Substitution Criteria:

• Connector type: Receptacle, Female Sockets
• Number of positions: 288
• Mounting configuration: Board Edge, Through Hole, Right Angle
• Connector style: Impact, Guide Left
• Termination method: Press-Fit
• Operating temperature range: -55°C ~ 85°C
• Voltage rating: 30V minimum
• Contact finish: Gold plating
• Material flammability: UL94 V-0

The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors part number 2007745-1 qualifies as a direct substitute based on matching connector type, position count, mounting style, termination method, temperature range, voltage rating, contact finish, and flammability classification. Both components are Impact series connectors with identical mechanical mounting interfaces and electrical performance envelopes.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the Molex 0761503026 and TE Connectivity 2007745-1 maintain active product status and meet identical compliance requirements including UL94 V-0 flammability classification and RoHS standards. Selection between these components should be based on application-specific requirements and supply availability.

The Molex 0761503026 operates at a 0.053" (1.35mm) pitch with 96 differential pairs in its contact layout. The TE Connectivity 2007745-1 operates at a 0.075" (1.91mm) pitch with 192 signal and 96 ground contact configuration, and includes a board guide feature. The pitch difference represents a significant mechanical distinction that affects PCB layout and connector footprint design.

Both components support identical operating temperature ranges (-55°C to 85°C) and voltage ratings (30V). Contact finish specifications are equivalent at 30.0µin (0.76µm) gold plating. Press-fit termination is standard for both parts, ensuring consistent assembly processes.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the TE Connectivity 2007745-1 directly replace the Molex 0761503026 without PCB redesign?

A: Direct replacement requires PCB layout verification. While both connectors share identical position counts (288), row/column configuration (18×16), and mounting style (board edge, through-hole, right angle), the pitch specifications differ: Molex operates at 0.053" (1.35mm) while TE Connectivity operates at 0.075" (1.91mm). This pitch difference necessitates PCB footprint modification.

Q: Are the electrical performance characteristics equivalent?

A: Both connectors meet identical voltage (30V) and temperature (-55°C to 85°C) specifications. Contact finish (gold, 30.0µin) and flammability ratings (UL94 V-0) are equivalent. The TE Connectivity part specifies 0.75A current rating, while the Molex part does not provide this specification in the available data.

Q: What is the significance of the board guide feature on the TE Connectivity connector?

A: The board guide feature on the TE Connectivity 2007745-1 provides mechanical alignment assistance during assembly. This is a design enhancement that does not affect electrical compatibility but may influence assembly process requirements and connector positioning accuracy.

Q: Do both parts comply with RoHS requirements?

A: Yes. The Molex 0761503026 is ROHS3 compliant, and the TE Connectivity 2007745-1 is RoHS compliant. Both meet regulatory requirements for hazardous substance restrictions.

Q: What packaging differences exist between these components?

A: The Molex 0761503026 is supplied in tray packaging, while the TE Connectivity 2007745-1 is supplied in bulk packaging. Packaging selection may affect inventory management and handling procedures but does not impact connector functionality.
