Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the TE Connectivity Erni 104087 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Number of Positions: 200
• Pitch: 0.079" (2.00mm)
• Connector Type: Receptacle, Female Sockets
• Termination Method: Press-Fit
• Mounting Configuration: Board Edge, Through Hole, Right Angle

The substitute part TE Connectivity AMP Connectors 5646445-1 satisfies all mandatory parameters, establishing functional and mechanical interchangeability. Both connectors are designed for identical board-level applications with matching electrical and physical interfaces.

• MSL Rating 1 (Unlimited) eliminates moisture sensitivity constraints during storage and handling

Electrical Performance: The substitute part provides specified electrical ratings (1.5 A current, 750Vrms voltage) and operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C) suitable for backplane connector applications. Gold contact finish ensures reliable signal integrity and long-term contact resistance stability.

Supply Availability: Current inventory of 1473 units of the 5646445-1 supports immediate procurement requirements. Tube packaging format maintains component integrity during distribution and assembly operations.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 5646445-1 directly replace the 104087 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical specifications for number of positions (200), pitch (2.00mm), connector type (receptacle, female sockets), termination method (press-fit), and mounting configuration (board edge, through hole, right angle). No design modifications are required for mechanical or electrical interface compatibility.

Q: What is the significance of the obsolete status for the 104087?

A: Obsolete status indicates the 104087 is no longer manufactured and will not be restocked. The 5646445-1 is the active equivalent maintained in current production by TE Connectivity, ensuring continued availability for new builds and field service replacements.

Q: Are there packaging differences between the two parts?

A: The 104087 packaging is not specified in available documentation. The 5646445-1 is supplied in Tube packaging, which is standard for high-position-count connectors and provides protection during storage and automated assembly processes.

Q: Does the 5646445-1 meet current regulatory requirements?

A: Yes. The 5646445-1 is RoHS Compliant and carries EAR99 ECCN classification, meeting current environmental and export compliance standards. The 104087 regulatory status is not specified due to its obsolete classification.

Q: What is the MSL rating and why does it matter?

A: The 5646445-1 carries MSL Rating 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity constraints. Components can be stored indefinitely without desiccant packaging or time-limited shelf life restrictions, simplifying inventory management and reducing handling costs.

Q: Are the electrical performance specifications identical?

A: The 104087 electrical specifications are not documented. The 5646445-1 provides specified ratings: 1.5 A current capacity, 750Vrms voltage rating, and -55°C to 125°C operating temperature range. These ratings are appropriate for standard backplane connector applications.

Q: What contact finish is used on the 5646445-1?

A: The 5646445-1 features gold contact finish with 30.0µin (0.76µm) thickness, providing corrosion resistance and reliable electrical contact over the connector's operational life.
