TE Connectivity Erni 104154 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The TE Connectivity Erni 104154 is a 110-position backplane connector header with male pins, featuring a 0.079" (2.00mm) pitch and press-fit termination. This connector is designed for through-hole mounting applications requiring 88 signal positions plus 22 dedicated ground positions across 8 rows plus 2 ground rows.

The 104154 is classified as obsolete product status. Identification of equivalent substitute parts is necessary to support ongoing system maintenance, repair, and new production requirements where legacy component availability is limited.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the TE Connectivity Erni 104154 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Position and Pitch Configuration: The substitute part must maintain 110 total positions (88 signal + 22 ground) with an identical 0.079" (2.00mm) pitch and 8 + 2 row configuration to ensure mechanical and electrical compatibility with existing PCB layouts and mating connectors.

Connector Geometry and Termination: Both the main part and substitute must be header-style male pin connectors with press-fit termination and through-hole mounting to support identical assembly processes and board integration.

Electrical and Environmental Specifications: The substitute must maintain the same operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C), gold contact finish, and RoHS3 compliance to ensure functional equivalence in target applications.

Connector Style: Both parts must conform to the F 11 connector style classification to guarantee dimensional and functional compatibility.

The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors 5646513-1 meets all substitution criteria and is designated as the manufacturer-recommended equivalent.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors 5646513-1 is the direct functional equivalent for the obsolete TE Connectivity Erni 104154. Both parts share identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters including position count, pitch, row configuration, termination method, and operating temperature range.

The 5646513-1 carries active product status, ensuring ongoing availability and supply chain continuity. Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating, supporting equivalent environmental and regulatory requirements.

The primary distinction between the parts is packaging format: the 104154 is supplied in trays while the 5646513-1 is supplied in tubes. This packaging difference does not affect connector functionality or performance in end applications.

The 5646513-1 includes board guide features and is designated within the Z-PACK series, providing enhanced mechanical stability during assembly operations.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the TE Connectivity AMP 5646513-1 directly replace the TE Connectivity Erni 104154 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical position count (110), pitch (0.079"), row configuration (8 + 2), mounting type (through hole), and termination method (press-fit). The connectors are mechanically and electrically interchangeable in applications designed for the 104154.

Q: What is the primary reason for substitution?

A: The 104154 is classified as obsolete product status. The 5646513-1 is an active product offering equivalent functionality with assured long-term availability.

Q: Are there differences in contact specifications between these parts?

A: Both parts feature gold contact finish. The 5646513-1 specifies contact finish thickness of 30.0µin (0.76µm). The 104154 does not provide contact finish thickness specification in available documentation.

Q: Do packaging differences affect connector performance?

A: No. The 104154 is supplied in trays while the 5646513-1 is supplied in tubes. Packaging format does not affect electrical or mechanical performance. Packaging selection is determined by inventory management and assembly process requirements.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both the 104154 and 5646513-1 are ROHS3 compliant and carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating.

Q: What is the operating temperature range for both connectors?

A: Both connectors operate across the identical temperature range of -55°C to 125°C, supporting equivalent thermal performance in target applications.

Q: Does the 5646513-1 include additional features?

A: The 5646513-1 includes board guide features and is designated within the Z-PACK series. These features provide enhanced mechanical stability during assembly but do not alter core connector functionality.
