Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution between the main part 1-104069-7 and the equivalent part 6-104069-7 is based on strict electrical and mechanical parameter alignment. Both connectors share identical specifications across all critical dimensions and functional characteristics:

Key Parameters Determining Substitutability:

• Connector type, contact type, and gender (Header, Male Pin)
• Position count and row configuration (100 positions, 2 rows)
• Pitch and row spacing (0.050" mating pitch, 0.100" row spacing)
• Mounting orientation and method (Through Hole, Right Angle)
• Shrouding configuration (Shrouded - 2 Wall)
• Termination method (Solder)
• Operating temperature range (-65°C ~ 105°C)
• Voltage rating (30VAC)
• Contact material and mating finish (Copper Alloy, Gold)
• Insulation material and flammability rating (Thermoplastic, UL94 V-0)
• Series designation (AMPMODU System 50)

Both parts are classified as direct equivalents within the AMPMODU System 50 connector family and maintain full mechanical and electrical interchangeability.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

1-104069-7 (Main Part):

The 1-104069-7 maintains active product status and is suitable for applications where RoHS non-compliance is acceptable. This part features a Tin-Lead post finish and is classified as RoHS non-compliant. Selection of this part is appropriate for legacy systems, non-regulated applications, or designs where RoHS compliance is not a requirement.

6-104069-7 (Substitute Part):

The 6-104069-7 is the RoHS-compliant equivalent within the AMPMODU System 50 series. This part features a Tin post finish (lead-free) and carries RoHS Compliant certification. Selection of this part is required for applications subject to RoHS regulations, including European Union markets and regulated industries. The substitute part maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications, ensuring direct interchangeability in board design and assembly processes.

Compliance Considerations:

Both parts share identical electrical performance, mechanical dimensions, and thermal characteristics. The primary distinction between the two parts is the post contact finish composition and RoHS compliance status. Applications requiring RoHS compliance must specify part number 6-104069-7. Applications without RoHS requirements may utilize either part based on inventory availability and supply chain considerations.
