• Cable pitch: 0.050" (1.27mm)
• Board-side pitch: 0.100" (2.54mm)
• Number of rows: 2
• Row spacing: 0.100" (2.54mm)
• Mounting type: Through Hole
• Cable termination: IDC
• Wire gauge compatibility: 26-30 AWG range
• Features: Feed Through capability
• Moisture sensitivity level: 1 (Unlimited)

Direct Equivalent: TE Connectivity 1-111382-6 maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications to the 111382-3 while offering active product status and RoHS3 compliance.

Similar Substitute: Amphenol ICC 69830-016LF provides equivalent functional performance across all critical mechanical and electrical parameters, with differences limited to connector color (blue versus black) and contact finish composition (tin versus tin-lead or gold).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For Direct Replacement (Preferred): TE Connectivity 1-111382-6 is the primary substitute for the obsolete 111382-3. Both parts share identical mechanical and electrical specifications within the AMP-Latch series. The 1-111382-6 offers active product status with current manufacturing support and RoHS3 compliance, eliminating regulatory constraints associated with the non-compliant 111382-3. This part is available in tube packaging with 969 units in stock.

For Cross-Manufacturer Substitution: Amphenol ICC 69830-016LF provides functional equivalence across all critical parameters. This Quickie™ series connector maintains the required 16-position, dual-row configuration with identical pitch specifications and IDC termination. The 69830-016LF carries active product status and RoHS compliance. Differences include connector color (blue), contact finish composition (tin), and contact finish thickness (150.0µin versus 100.0µin on the original part). This part is available in tube packaging with 4454 units in stock.

Compliance Considerations: The 111382-3 is RoHS non-compliant. Both substitute parts meet current RoHS requirements, with 1-111382-6 achieving RoHS3 compliance and 69830-016LF achieving RoHS compliance. Selection should account for end-application regulatory requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the TE Connectivity 1-111382-6 be used as a direct replacement for the 111382-3?

A: Yes. The 1-111382-6 maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications to the 111382-3, including connector type, position count, pitch configuration, mounting method, and wire gauge compatibility. Both parts are within the AMP-Latch series and support the same ribbon cable and PCB interface requirements.

Q: What are the key differences between the 1-111382-6 and the 69830-016LF?

A: Both parts meet the core mechanical and electrical requirements for 16-position ribbon cable DIP header connectors with 0.050" cable pitch and 0.100" board-side pitch. Differences include manufacturer (TE Connectivity versus Amphenol ICC), series designation (AMP-Latch versus Quickie™), connector color (black versus blue), contact finish material (gold or tin-lead versus tin), and contact finish thickness. Wire gauge compatibility differs slightly: 1-111382-6 supports 28 AWG stranded and 26-30 AWG solid, while 69830-016LF supports 26-28 AWG stranded or solid.

Q: Are there packaging differences between substitute parts?

A: Both substitute parts are supplied in tube packaging. The 1-111382-6 has 969 units in stock, while the 69830-016LF has 4454 units in stock. Packaging format is consistent across both options.

Q: Does the connector color difference between black (111382-3 and 1-111382-6) and blue (69830-016LF) affect electrical performance?

A: No. Connector color is a cosmetic attribute and does not affect electrical performance, impedance, signal integrity, or mechanical compatibility. Color selection is determined by application requirements or design preferences.

Q: What is the significance of the contact finish difference?

A: Contact finish affects corrosion resistance, contact resistance stability, and long-term reliability in specific environmental conditions. The 111382-3 uses tin-lead (100.0µin thickness), the 1-111382-6 uses gold (5.00µin thickness), and the 69830-016LF uses tin (150.0µin thickness). All three finishes are suitable for standard PCB connector applications. Gold provides superior corrosion resistance and contact stability, while tin offers cost efficiency with adequate performance for most applications.

Q: Why is the 111382-3 marked as obsolete?

A: The 111382-3 carries obsolete product status, indicating that TE Connectivity has discontinued active manufacturing and support. The 1-111382-6 serves as the active replacement within the same product family, ensuring continued availability and compliance with current regulatory standards.

Q: Are both substitute parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The 1-111382-6 is RoHS3 compliant, and the 69830-016LF is RoHS compliant. The original 111382-3 is RoHS non-compliant. For applications requiring RoHS compliance, either substitute part is acceptable.
