Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Molex 0761601016 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Connector Position Count: 192 positions (fixed requirement)
• Mounting Configuration: Board edge, through-hole, right-angle orientation
• Termination Method: Press-fit technology
• Connector Gender: Receptacle with female sockets
• Physical Layout: 12 rows × 16 columns configuration
• Contact Finish: Gold plating with specified thickness
• Environmental Compliance: UL94 V-0 flammability rating and RoHS compliance

The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors part 1934225-1 qualifies as a substitute based on matching the core functional requirements: 192-position receptacle configuration, board edge mounting, press-fit termination, female socket design, and equivalent environmental certifications. Differences in pitch (0.075" vs. 0.053"), voltage rating (250V vs. 30V), and operating temperature range represent design variations that must be evaluated against specific application requirements.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the Molex 0761601016 and TE Connectivity 1934225-1 maintain active production status with full RoHS and UL94 V-0 compliance. Selection between these components should be based on application-specific electrical and thermal requirements. The Molex part operates within a -55°C to 85°C temperature range at 30V maximum, while the TE Connectivity alternative extends to -65°C to 90°C operation at 250V maximum. The pitch difference (0.053" versus 0.075") represents a significant physical variation that directly impacts PCB layout and contact density. Both parts utilize identical press-fit termination and gold contact finish specifications, ensuring mechanical and electrical compatibility at the termination interface level.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the TE Connectivity 1934225-1 be used as a direct replacement for the Molex 0761601016?

A: Direct replacement requires PCB layout compatibility. While both connectors maintain 192 positions in a 12×16 configuration with identical mounting orientation and termination method, the pitch difference (0.053" versus 0.075") necessitates different board edge spacing. Existing PCB designs cannot accommodate both parts without modification.

Q: What are the primary differences between these two connectors?

A: The connectors differ in contact pitch, voltage rating, and operating temperature range. The Molex part features a finer 0.053" pitch with 30V rating and -55°C to 85°C operation. The TE Connectivity part uses a 0.075" pitch with 250V rating and -65°C to 90°C operation. Both share identical 192-position configuration, press-fit termination, and gold contact finish.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The Molex 0761601016 is ROHS3 compliant, and the TE Connectivity 1934225-1 is RoHS compliant. Both meet current environmental regulations and carry UL94 V-0 flammability ratings.

Q: What packaging formats are available?

A: The Molex 0761601016 is supplied in tray packaging, while the TE Connectivity 1934225-1 is supplied in tube packaging. Packaging selection may affect handling, storage, and integration into assembly processes.

Q: Which part should be selected for high-voltage applications?

A: The TE Connectivity 1934225-1 is rated for 250V operation, making it suitable for applications exceeding the Molex part's 30V maximum rating. Application voltage requirements should determine component selection.
