Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of rectangular connectors is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Mechanical Compatibility Parameters:

• Number of positions (13)
• Pitch spacing (0.100" / 2.54mm)
• Mounting type (Through Hole)
• Shrouding configuration (Shrouded - 4 Wall)
• Connector orientation (Vertical)
• Contact shape (Square)

Electrical Compatibility Parameters:

• Current rating (3A)
• Operating temperature range (-65°C ~ 105°C)
• Contact material (Brass)
• Termination method (Solder)

Physical Compatibility Parameters:

• Contact length - mating (0.240" / 6.10mm)
• Contact length - post (0.130" / 3.30mm)
• Overall contact length (0.589" / 14.96mm)
• Insulation height (0.549" / 13.94mm)
• Insulation material (Thermoplastic)
• Insulation color (Black)

The substitute part 6-103080-1 maintains equivalence across all mechanical, electrical, and physical parameters. The primary distinction is product status and contact finish specification.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The substitute part 6-103080-1 provides full functional and mechanical equivalence to the obsolete 1-103080-1. Selection between these parts is determined by regulatory and procurement requirements:

For applications requiring RoHS compliance: Part 6-103080-1 is the appropriate selection, as it carries RoHS Compliant status. The 1-103080-1 is RoHS non-compliant and unsuitable for applications subject to RoHS regulations.

For applications with no RoHS requirement: Both parts are electrically and mechanically equivalent. The 1-103080-1 remains functional for legacy system maintenance where RoHS compliance is not mandated.

Contact finish consideration: The 1-103080-1 features Tin-Lead contact finish, while 6-103080-1 features Tin finish. Both maintain identical finish thickness (100.0µin / 2.54µm) and are compatible with solder termination processes. The Tin finish of 6-103080-1 aligns with lead-free soldering practices.

Product status: The 1-103080-1 is classified as obsolete. The 6-103080-1 maintains active product status, ensuring continued availability and manufacturer support.

Packaging: The 6-103080-1 is supplied in Tube packaging, which is standard for production environments. Packaging selection should align with procurement and assembly requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 6-103080-1 be used as a direct replacement for 1-103080-1 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The 6-103080-1 is mechanically and electrically equivalent to 1-103080-1 across all critical parameters including pitch, position count, mounting type, shrouding, current rating, and operating temperature range. Both parts are from the same AMPMODU Mod II series and maintain identical contact dimensions and materials.

Q: What is the difference between the Tin-Lead finish of 1-103080-1 and the Tin finish of 6-103080-1?

A: The 1-103080-1 uses Tin-Lead contact finish, while 6-103080-1 uses Tin finish. Both finishes are applied at identical thickness (100.0µin / 2.54µm). The Tin finish of 6-103080-1 is compatible with lead-free soldering processes and aligns with modern manufacturing standards. Both finishes support the 3A current rating and -65°C to 105°C operating temperature range.

Q: Why is 1-103080-1 marked as obsolete?

A: The 1-103080-1 is classified as obsolete by the manufacturer. The 6-103080-1 serves as the active equivalent, providing the same functionality with updated compliance status (RoHS Compliant) and modern contact finish specifications.

Q: Are there any compatibility issues when substituting 6-103080-1 for 1-103080-1?

A: No compatibility issues exist. Both parts maintain identical mechanical dimensions, electrical ratings, and mating characteristics. The 13-position, 2.54mm pitch header configuration is identical, and both parts are shrouded 4-wall through-hole connectors with solder termination.

Q: What is the significance of RoHS compliance in selecting between these parts?

A: RoHS compliance is a regulatory requirement in many markets and industries. The 6-103080-1 is RoHS Compliant, making it suitable for applications subject to RoHS regulations. The 1-103080-1 is RoHS non-compliant and should only be used in applications where RoHS compliance is not required.

Q: Does packaging affect the functional performance of these connectors?

A: No. Packaging (Tube for 6-103080-1 versus unspecified for 1-103080-1) affects only storage, handling, and procurement logistics. Functional performance, electrical characteristics, and mechanical compatibility remain identical regardless of packaging format.

Q: Can both parts be used interchangeably in the same assembly?

A: Yes, from a functional standpoint. However, procurement and compliance requirements should guide selection. For new designs or RoHS-regulated applications, 6-103080-1 is the appropriate choice. For legacy system maintenance where RoHS compliance is not applicable, either part functions identically.
