Molex 0876682002 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Molex 0876682002 is a 34-position backplane connector receptacle featuring female sockets and blade sockets for board edge mounting applications. This connector is part of the EXTreme PowerPlus 87668 series and is designed for through-hole, right-angle solder termination with a 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch configuration across 4 rows. The part is currently obsolete, making identification of compatible substitute components essential for ongoing system maintenance and new design implementations where legacy compatibility is required.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Molex 0876682002 is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

Position count and pitch geometry must match exactly: 34 positions at 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch across 4 rows ensure mechanical and electrical compatibility with existing board edge connectors and mating plugs.

Connector type and contact configuration must be identical: Receptacle with female sockets and blade sockets maintains functional equivalence in power and signal distribution applications.

Mounting and termination specifications must be preserved: Board edge, through-hole, right-angle mounting with solder termination ensures direct PCB integration without redesign.

Contact layout distribution must remain consistent: 24 signal and 10 power contact allocation preserves the electrical architecture of the original design.

Material and environmental compliance must be maintained: UL94 V-0 flammability rating, gold contact finish at 30.0µin thickness, and -20°C to 105°C operating temperature range define the performance envelope.

The Amphenol ICC (FCI) 51761-10002410AALF meets all these criteria and qualifies as a direct substitute.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Amphenol ICC (FCI) 51761-10002410AALF is the qualified substitute for the obsolete Molex 0876682002. Selection is based on the following engineering criteria:

Functional equivalence is established through identical position count, pitch, mounting configuration, and contact layout specifications. Both connectors support the same 24 signal and 10 power contact distribution.

Compliance alignment is confirmed: both parts meet UL94 V-0 flammability requirements and maintain the same operating temperature range of -20°C to 105°C. The substitute part carries active RoHS compliance status, whereas the original is ROHS3 compliant, both meeting current regulatory requirements.

Contact finish specifications are preserved at 30.0µin (0.76µm) gold plating, ensuring equivalent electrical performance and reliability in the intended application environment.

Product status transition from obsolete to active availability makes the Amphenol ICC part the appropriate choice for new procurements and system maintenance where the original Molex component is no longer available.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Amphenol ICC 51761-10002410AALF be used as a direct replacement for the Molex 0876682002 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The substitute part maintains identical position count (34), pitch (0.100"), row configuration (4), mounting type (board edge, through-hole, right-angle), and contact layout (24 signal, 10 power). Direct PCB compatibility is preserved without design modification.

Q: Are there differences in contact finish between the two parts?

A: The Molex part specifies gold contact finish. The Amphenol ICC substitute offers gold or gold with GXT™ finish options. Both maintain the same 30.0µin (0.76µm) thickness specification, ensuring equivalent electrical performance.

Q: What is the packaging difference between these parts?

A: The Molex 0876682002 packaging specification is not provided. The Amphenol ICC 51761-10002410AALF is supplied in tray packaging. Verify packaging requirements for your procurement and assembly processes.

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

A: Both parts meet UL94 V-0 flammability rating and operate across the identical temperature range of -20°C to 105°C. The Molex part is ROHS3 compliant; the Amphenol ICC part is RoHS compliant. Both satisfy current regulatory requirements for backplane connector applications.

Q: What is the moisture sensitivity level for these connectors?

A: Both the Molex 0876682002 and Amphenol ICC 51761-10002410AALF carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) rating, indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions for storage or handling.
