Engineering Selection Recommendations

Preci-Dip 892-18-034-10-002101

This substitute provides full mechanical and electrical compatibility with the TE Connectivity 1-104433-6. The part is active in production with ROHS3 compliance, addressing regulatory requirements that the original obsolete part does not meet. Operating temperature range of -55°C to 125°C exceeds the original specification minimum. Voltage rating of 150VDC provides margin above the 30VAC requirement. Current rating of 3A matches the original specification exactly.

Hirose A1-34PA-2.54DSA(71)

This substitute maintains all critical mechanical and electrical interface parameters. The part is active with RoHS compliance. Operating temperature range of -55°C to 85°C covers the upper portion of the original specification but does not extend to the -65°C lower limit. Voltage rating of 200V provides adequate margin. Current rating of 3A matches the original specification. This option is suitable for applications where the lower temperature limit of -55°C is acceptable.

Samtec BBD-117-T-B

This substitute meets the core mechanical requirements of 34 positions, 2 rows, and 0.100" pitch with through-hole solder termination and push-pull fastening. The part is active with ROHS3 compliance. Operating temperature range of -55°C to 125°C exceeds the original specification minimum. Current and voltage ratings are not specified for this part, requiring application-specific evaluation. Contact geometry differs from the original (circular versus square), which may affect mating characteristics in existing connector systems.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Preci-Dip 892-18-034-10-002101 be used as a direct replacement for the TE Connectivity 1-104433-6?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical pitch (0.100"), position count (34), row configuration (2 rows), and row spacing (0.100"). Both support through-hole solder termination and push-pull fastening. Electrical ratings of the Preci-Dip part (150VDC, 3A) exceed the original specification (30VAC, 3A). Operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C) covers the original range except for the lower -65°C limit.

Q: What is the primary difference between the Hirose A1-34PA-2.54DSA(71) and the Preci-Dip 892-18-034-10-002101?

A: Both parts are mechanically and electrically compatible with the original TE Connectivity connector. The Hirose part has a lower maximum operating temperature of 85°C compared to 125°C for the Preci-Dip part. The Hirose part is packaged in trays, while the Preci-Dip part is supplied in bulk packaging. Both are RoHS compliant and active in production.

Q: Why does the Samtec BBD-117-T-B have unspecified current and voltage ratings?

A: The provided technical data for the Samtec BBD-117-T-B does not include current and voltage ratings. Applications requiring specific electrical performance verification should obtain complete technical documentation from the manufacturer before selection.

Q: Are all substitute parts compatible with existing PCB layouts designed for the TE Connectivity 1-104433-6?

A: All substitute parts maintain the same pitch (0.100"), position count (34), and row spacing (0.100"), ensuring PCB footprint compatibility. However, variations in overall contact length and insulation height may affect mating connector engagement. Physical dimensions should be verified against the specific mating connector used in the application.

Q: What is the significance of RoHS compliance for these substitute parts?

A: The original TE Connectivity 1-104433-6 is RoHS non-compliant. All three substitute parts (Preci-Dip, Hirose, and Samtec) are RoHS compliant, meeting current regulatory requirements for electronic component manufacturing and use in many jurisdictions. This compliance status is particularly important for new designs and applications subject to environmental regulations.

Q: Can the Samtec BBD-117-T-B be used in applications requiring specific voltage and current ratings?

A: The Samtec BBD-117-T-B specifications provided do not include voltage and current ratings. Applications with defined electrical requirements should select either the Preci-Dip 892-18-034-10-002101 (150VDC, 3A) or Hirose A1-34PA-2.54DSA(71) (200V, 3A) to ensure documented electrical performance.

Q: What packaging options are available for these substitute parts?

A: The Preci-Dip 892-18-034-10-002101 is supplied in bulk packaging. The Hirose A1-34PA-2.54DSA(71) is supplied in trays. The Samtec BBD-117-T-B is supplied in tubes. Packaging selection should align with production volume and handling requirements.
