Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Molex 0764503608 is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type & Style: Header configuration with male pins and Impact guide left orientation
• Position Count & Matrix: 96 total positions arranged in 6 rows × 16 columns
• Mounting Configuration: Board edge mounting with through-hole, right-angle termination
• Termination Method: Press-fit contact technology
• Contact Finish & Thickness: Gold plating at 30.0µin (0.76µm)
• Electrical Ratings: 30V voltage rating and operating temperature range of -55°C to 85°C
• Compliance Standards: UL94 V-0 flammability and ROHS3 compliance

The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors part number 2143313-3 qualifies as a manufacturer-recommended substitute based on matching all critical mechanical and electrical parameters. Pitch specification is not provided for the substitute part in available documentation but does not disqualify substitution when all other parameters align.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the Molex 0764503608 and TE Connectivity 2143313-3 maintain Active product status, ensuring continued availability and manufacturer support. Both components carry ROHS3 compliance certification and UL94 V-0 flammability rating, meeting regulatory requirements for industrial and commercial applications. The electrical and mechanical specifications are equivalent across all documented parameters, including voltage rating, operating temperature range, contact finish specifications, and mounting configuration. Selection between these parts may be based on packaging format (Molex supplied in Tray; TE Connectivity supplied in Tube), inventory availability, or established supplier relationships, as functional performance characteristics are identical.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the TE Connectivity 2143313-3 be used as a direct replacement for the Molex 0764503608?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical connector type, position count, matrix configuration, mounting method, termination technology, contact finish specifications, voltage rating, and operating temperature range. The components are functionally equivalent for board edge mounting applications requiring 96-position Impact-style headers.

Q: What is the significance of the pitch specification not being provided for the TE Connectivity substitute?

A: The pitch specification (0.053" / 1.35mm) is a fundamental mechanical parameter that determines physical compatibility. While this value is not explicitly listed in the TE Connectivity documentation provided, the matching row and column configuration (6×16) with identical mounting and contact specifications indicates mechanical compatibility. Verification of pitch alignment with your specific PCB layout is recommended during component procurement.

Q: Are there differences in packaging that affect component handling or installation?

A: The Molex 0764503608 is supplied in Tray packaging, while the TE Connectivity 2143313-3 is supplied in Tube packaging. These packaging formats do not affect electrical or mechanical performance but may influence handling procedures, storage requirements, and integration into automated assembly processes. Confirm packaging compatibility with your manufacturing workflow.

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance and certification standards?

A: Yes. Both the Molex 0764503608 and TE Connectivity 2143313-3 are ROHS3 compliant and carry UL94 V-0 flammability certification. Both maintain MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating. Compliance profiles are equivalent for regulated applications.

Q: What current rating should be used for circuit design?

A: The Molex 0764503608 does not specify a current rating in available documentation. The TE Connectivity 2143313-3 is rated at 0.75A. When the original part lacks a current specification, the substitute's rating may be used as a reference for circuit design, provided your application does not exceed this value.
