Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the 1-102617-0 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical Parameters:

• Contact type (Male Pin)
• Number of positions (24)
• Number of rows (2)
• Pitch spacing (0.100" / 2.54mm)
• Row spacing (0.100" / 2.54mm)
• Current rating (3A)
• Operating temperature range (-65°C ~ 105°C)
• Contact finish on mating surface (Gold)

Mechanical Parameters:

• Connector type (Header)
• Mounting type (Through Hole, Right Angle)
• Shrouding configuration (Shrouded - 4 Wall)
• Termination method (Solder)
• Fastening type (Detent Lock)
• Contact shape (Square)
• Insulation material (Thermoplastic)
• Material flammability rating (UL94 V-0)

Series Compatibility:

• AMPMODU Mod II series designation

The substitute part 6-102617-0 maintains full equivalence across all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. The primary distinction between the main part and substitute relates to product status (Obsolete versus Active) and packaging configuration (unspecified versus Tray), along with minor contact finish post material variation (Tin-Lead versus Tin).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 6-102617-0 serves as the direct active substitute for the obsolete 1-102617-0. Both parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters including connector type, contact configuration, pitch spacing, mounting orientation, and current rating.

Product Status Consideration: The 1-102617-0 carries Obsolete status, indicating discontinued manufacturing and limited long-term availability. The 6-102617-0 maintains Active product status with higher inventory levels (1474 units versus 792 units), ensuring sustained supply chain access and production continuity.

Compliance Differentiation: The 6-102617-0 achieves ROHS3 compliance, whereas the 1-102617-0 is RoHS non-compliant. This distinction becomes significant for applications subject to RoHS regulatory requirements or customer specifications mandating RoHS-compliant components.

Contact Finish Post Material: The 1-102617-0 specifies Tin-Lead post finish, while the 6-102617-0 specifies Tin post finish. Both maintain identical finish thickness (100.0µin / 2.54µm) and mating surface gold finish (15.0µin / 0.38µm). The Tin post finish in the substitute part aligns with contemporary lead-free manufacturing practices.

Packaging Configuration: The 6-102617-0 is supplied in Tray packaging, providing standardized handling and storage benefits for production environments.

For new designs and ongoing production, the 6-102617-0 is the appropriate selection. For legacy system maintenance requiring the exact original part configuration, the 1-102617-0 remains available in current inventory.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are the 1-102617-0 and 6-102617-0 electrically interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both parts maintain identical electrical specifications including 24-position configuration, 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch spacing, 3A current rating, and -65°C to 105°C operating temperature range. The mating surface contact finish (Gold) and thickness are identical across both parts.

Q: What is the significance of the product status difference between these parts?

A: The 1-102617-0 is classified as Obsolete, indicating TE Connectivity has discontinued manufacturing. The 6-102617-0 maintains Active status with ongoing production. For applications requiring long-term component availability and supply chain stability, the Active part (6-102617-0) is the appropriate selection.

Q: Does the Tin-Lead versus Tin post finish difference affect compatibility?

A: No. Both post finishes maintain identical thickness (100.0µin / 2.54µm) and serve the same solder termination function. The Tin post finish in the 6-102617-0 reflects current lead-free manufacturing standards while maintaining full mechanical and electrical compatibility.

Q: Are there RoHS compliance implications for substitution?

A: Yes. The 6-102617-0 is ROHS3 compliant, while the 1-102617-0 is RoHS non-compliant. Applications subject to RoHS regulatory requirements or customer specifications mandating RoHS compliance must use the 6-102617-0.

Q: Does packaging configuration affect electrical or mechanical performance?

A: No. The Tray packaging of the 6-102617-0 provides standardized handling and storage benefits for production environments but does not alter the connector's electrical or mechanical characteristics. The connector itself remains functionally identical regardless of packaging format.

Q: Can the 6-102617-0 be used as a direct replacement in existing assemblies designed for the 1-102617-0?

A: Yes. The 6-102617-0 maintains full mechanical and electrical equivalence across all critical parameters. The connector footprint, pin configuration, mounting orientation, and performance specifications are identical, enabling direct substitution in existing PCB designs and assemblies.

Q: What is the base product number relationship between these parts?

A: Both the 1-102617-0 and 6-102617-0 share the base product number 102617. The numeric prefix (1 versus 6) indicates variant designation within the AMPMODU Mod II series, with the 6-prefix variant representing the current active production configuration.

Q: Are there any mechanical dimension differences between these parts?

A: No. Both parts maintain identical mechanical dimensions including contact length (mating: 0.318" / 8.08mm; post: 0.135" / 3.43mm), insulation height (0.400" / 10.16mm), and overall shrouded 4-wall configuration. The parts are mechanically interchangeable.
