Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the Molex 0761550804 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

  • Connector type and style (Header, Male Pins, Impact series)
  • Position count and arrangement (96 positions, 12 rows × 8 columns)
  • Pitch specification (0.053" / 1.35mm)
  • Mounting and termination method (Through Hole, Press-Fit)
  • Contact material and finish (Gold, 30.0µin thickness)
  • Electrical ratings (30V, -55°C ~ 85°C)
  • Compliance certifications (UL94 V-0, ROHS3)

The identified substitute part Molex 0761551804 maintains complete electrical and mechanical compatibility with the original part number while differing only in product status and packaging configuration.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Molex 0761551804 is the direct functional equivalent of the 0761550804. Selection of the substitute part is based on the following engineering criteria:

  • The original part 0761550804 carries obsolete product status, limiting future availability and support.
  • The substitute part 0761551804 maintains active product status, ensuring continued manufacturability and supply chain reliability.
  • Both parts are ROHS3 compliant and carry identical electrical, mechanical, and thermal specifications.
  • Both parts meet UL94 V-0 flammability requirements and operate across the same temperature range (-55°C ~ 85°C).
  • The only difference is packaging format (bulk versus tray), which does not affect electrical or mechanical performance.

For new designs or component replenishment, the 0761551804 is the appropriate selection due to its active status and equivalent performance characteristics.
