Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The Molex 0761553805 qualifies as a direct substitute for the 0761552805 based on identical electrical and mechanical parameters. Substitution is valid when the following criteria are met:

• Identical connector type, style, and orientation (Header, Male Pins; Impact, Guide Left)
• Matching position count and array configuration (96 positions; 12 rows × 8 columns)
• Identical pitch specification (0.053" / 1.35mm)
• Matching contact layout and differential pair configuration (32 Differential Pairs)
• Identical termination method (Press-Fit)
• Matching contact finish and thickness (Gold, 30.0µin)
• Identical electrical ratings (30V, -55°C to 85°C)
• Equivalent compliance certifications (UL94 V-0, ROHS3 Compliant, MSL 1)

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Molex 0761553805 is the direct equivalent for the obsolete 0761552805. Both parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters. The primary distinction is product status: the 0761552805 is obsolete while the 0761553805 is active and currently in production.

For new designs and ongoing production requirements, the 0761553805 is the appropriate selection. Both parts carry equivalent compliance certifications including ROHS3 compliance and UL94 V-0 flammability rating, ensuring regulatory alignment. The packaging difference (bulk versus tray) reflects standard industry practice for active versus obsolete inventory management and does not affect functional compatibility.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Molex 0761553805 be used as a direct replacement for the 0761552805?

A: Yes. The 0761553805 is electrically and mechanically identical to the 0761552805 across all specified parameters including position count, pitch, contact configuration, termination method, and electrical ratings.

Q: What is the primary reason for substitution?

A: The 0761552805 is classified as obsolete. The 0761553805 is the active equivalent part currently manufactured and available for procurement.

Q: Are there any compliance or certification differences between these parts?

A: No. Both parts carry identical certifications: ROHS3 compliance, UL94 V-0 flammability rating, and MSL 1 moisture sensitivity level.

Q: Does the packaging difference affect compatibility?

A: No. The packaging difference (bulk for the obsolete part, tray for the active part) is a supply chain distinction and does not impact electrical or mechanical performance.

Q: What are the critical parameters that define substitution eligibility?

A: Substitution is valid when parts match on: connector type and style, position count and array configuration, pitch specification, contact layout, termination method, contact finish, electrical ratings, and operating temperature range.
