Molex 0761550613 192-Position Backplane Connector Header – Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Molex 0761550613 is a 192-position backplane connector header designed for through-hole PCB mounting. This Impact series connector features male pins with press-fit termination, gold-plated contacts, and is rated for 30V operation across an extended temperature range of -55°C to 85°C. The part is classified as obsolete, making identification of active equivalent alternatives essential for ongoing production and maintenance applications. Direct substitutes and manufacturer-recommended alternatives are available from both Molex and TE Connectivity AMP Connectors product lines.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Molex 0761551613 (Recommended Primary Substitute)

The Molex 0761551613 is the optimal substitute for the obsolete 0761550613. This part maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications, including pitch (0.053" / 1.35mm), voltage rating (30V), and operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 85°C). The only differences are packaging format (Tray) and active product status. No PCB redesign or connector interface modification is required. ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating are maintained. This substitute provides direct compatibility with existing designs.

TE Connectivity AMP Connectors Z-PACK TinMan Series (1934315-1, 1934316-1, 1934317-1, 1934318-1)

These four TE Connectivity alternatives are manufacturer-recommended cross-manufacturer substitutes. All maintain the 192-position, male pin, through-hole, press-fit configuration with identical contact finish (Gold, 30.0µin) and flammability rating (UL94 V-0). Key differences include:

Pitch: 0.075" (1.90mm) versus 0.053" (1.35mm) – requires PCB footprint redesign
Voltage Rating: 250V versus 30V – exceeds original specification
Operating Temperature: -65°C ~ 90°C versus -55°C ~ 85°C – exceeds original specification
Current Rating: 0.5A specified (not specified for original part)

Selection among these four TE parts depends on packaging requirements: 1934315-1 and 1934317-1 are supplied in Tube packaging; 1934316-1 in Bulk; 1934318-1 in Tube with highest inventory availability (2240 pcs). All are active products with ROHS3 or RoHS compliance.

Selection Criteria:

For direct replacement without PCB modification: Select Molex 0761551613
For cross-manufacturer substitution with PCB redesign capability: Select TE Connectivity alternative based on packaging and inventory requirements
All substitutes meet RoHS compliance and MSL 1 requirements

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the TE Connectivity parts (1934315-1, 1934316-1, 1934317-1, 1934318-1) be used as direct drop-in replacements for the Molex 0761550613?

A: No. While these TE parts maintain the same 192-position count, male pin configuration, and through-hole mounting, the pitch differs (0.075" versus 0.053"). This requires PCB footprint redesign. The Molex 0761551613 is the true direct substitute requiring no PCB modification.

Q: What is the significance of the pitch difference between the Molex 0761550613 (0.053") and the TE Connectivity alternatives (0.075")?

A: Pitch defines the center-to-center spacing between connector pins. A larger pitch (0.075") results in a physically larger connector footprint. Designs using the original 0.053" pitch cannot accommodate the 0.075" pitch without PCB layout changes, including via repositioning and trace routing modifications.

Q: Are all substitute parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: The Molex 0761551613 and TE Connectivity parts 1934315-1 and 1934318-1 are explicitly ROHS3 compliant. TE parts 1934316-1 and 1934317-1 are listed as RoHS Compliant without specific ROHS3 designation. For applications requiring ROHS3 certification, confirm with the supplier or select parts with explicit ROHS3 status.

Q: What packaging options are available for these substitutes?

A: Molex 0761551613 is supplied in Tray packaging. TE Connectivity alternatives offer three packaging options: Tube (1934315-1, 1934317-1), Bulk (1934316-1), and Tube (1934318-1). Packaging selection depends on assembly process requirements and inventory management practices.

Q: Why does the Molex 0761550613 show as obsolete when active substitutes are available?

A: Product obsolescence reflects manufacturer discontinuation of that specific part number. Active substitutes (Molex 0761551613 and TE Connectivity alternatives) represent the current product line offerings. Existing inventory of the 0761550613 (804 pcs) remains available, but new designs should specify active alternatives.

Q: Can the higher voltage rating (250V) of the TE Connectivity parts create compatibility issues in a 30V application?

A: No. A higher voltage rating indicates the connector can safely operate at voltages up to 250V. Operating at 30V is well within this specification and creates no compatibility or performance issues. The higher rating provides design margin and flexibility for future applications.

Q: What is the Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) and why is it important?

A: MSL 1 (Unlimited) indicates the component has no moisture sensitivity restrictions. These connectors can be stored and handled without special humidity controls or baking procedures prior to assembly. All listed substitutes maintain MSL 1 rating.
