Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the Molex 0894000710 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type & Contact Type: Header with male pins
• Position Count & Pitch: 7 positions at 0.079" (2.00mm) mating pitch
• Mounting Configuration: Through-hole, board to cable/wire style
• Shrouding Design: Shrouded 4-wall construction
• Insulation Material: Polyamide (PA66), Nylon 6/6
• Contact Material & Finish: Brass with tin plating on both mating and post surfaces
• Mechanical Dimensions: Insulation height of 0.238" (6.05mm), square contact shape
• Compliance: UL94 V-0 flammability rating, ROHS3 compliance, MSL 1

The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors part number 3-440054-7 meets all these critical parameters and is classified as an active product, providing a direct functional equivalent for the obsolete Molex connector.
