Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 6-102523-2 serves as the direct substitute for the obsolete 1-102523-2. Both components are members of the AMPMODU Mod II series and maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters including position count, pitch spacing, contact configuration, current rating, and operating temperature range.

The primary distinction between these parts is product status and compliance posture. The 1-102523-2 is classified as obsolete and carries RoHS non-compliant status. The 6-102523-2 is an active product with RoHS compliant certification, making it the appropriate selection for new designs and production applications subject to regulatory compliance requirements.

Contact finish composition differs between the two parts: the main part features Tin-Lead plating while the substitute features Tin plating. Both maintain identical finish thickness specifications of 100.0µin (2.54µm) on mating and post surfaces. This difference reflects the RoHS compliance transition and does not affect functional compatibility or electrical performance within the specified operating parameters.

The 6-102523-2 is supplied in tube packaging, providing standardized component handling and inventory management compared to the unspecified packaging of the obsolete part.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
