• Row spacing - mating: 0.079" (2.00mm)
• Mounting type: Through Hole
• Shrouding: Shrouded - 4 Wall
• Termination: Solder
• Current rating: 2A
• Material flammability rating: UL94 V-0
• Moisture sensitivity level: 1 (Unlimited)

Compliance Status: Both parts maintain active product status and comply with RoHS requirements, ensuring regulatory alignment for current and future applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the Molex 0878311035 and Amphenol ICC 10075025-G01-10ULF maintain active product status and meet UL94 V-0 flammability requirements. The Amphenol ICC part offers a higher voltage rating of 200V compared to the Molex part's 125V rating, providing additional electrical margin in applications where voltage headroom is beneficial. Both parts comply with RoHS standards and carry unlimited moisture sensitivity classification, ensuring suitability for standard storage and handling conditions. Selection between these parts should be based on supply availability, cost considerations, and specific application voltage requirements within the 125V to 200V range.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What determines if a connector header can substitute for the Molex 0878311035?

A: Substitution requires matching connector type (Header), contact type (Male Pin), position count (10), row configuration (2 rows), mating pitch (2.00mm), row spacing (2.00mm), mounting method (Through Hole), shrouding style (Shrouded - 4 Wall), and termination type (Solder). Electrical ratings must meet or exceed the original specification.

Q: Are there mechanical compatibility concerns between the Molex and Amphenol ICC parts?

A: Both parts share identical mating pitch, row spacing, position count, and shrouding configuration. Mechanical compatibility is maintained. Minor differences exist in contact length and insulation height; verify PCB footprint and mating connector clearances for your specific application.

Q: Does the higher voltage rating of the Amphenol ICC part affect compatibility?

A: No. The Amphenol ICC part's 200V rating exceeds the Molex part's 125V specification, providing additional electrical margin. This does not create compatibility issues in applications rated for 125V or lower.

Q: What is the difference between the fastening types listed for these parts?

A: The Molex part uses Push-Pull fastening, while the Amphenol ICC part uses Detent Lock fastening. Both are mechanical retention methods for mated connector pairs. Verify compatibility with your mating connector design.

Q: Are both parts suitable for automotive applications?

A: The Molex 0878311035 explicitly lists automotive applications. The Amphenol ICC part does not specify applications in the provided data. Confirm application suitability with the manufacturer if automotive qualification is required.

Q: What is the inventory status for these parts?

A: The Molex 0878311035 has 773 pieces in stock. The Amphenol ICC 10075025-G01-10ULF has 2776 pieces in stock. Availability may vary by distributor and time of inquiry.
