Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the 1-1394355-3 receptacle connector is determined by alignment of the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Series: Mark II
• Number of Positions: 3
• Pitch: 0.197" (5.00mm)
• Number of Rows: 1
• Mounting Type: Free Hanging (In-Line)
• Cable Termination: IDC
• Wire Type: Discrete
• Category: Rectangular Connectors

The substitute part 1-1534077-3 shares all mandatory matching parameters with the main part. However, this substitute represents a complementary connector type (plug versus receptacle) within the same Mark II series, designed to mate with receptacle connectors of identical pitch and position configuration. The substitute part is currently in active production status, providing availability advantages over the obsolete main part.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 1-1534077-3 substitute part is suitable for applications requiring a mating connector to the 1-1394355-3 receptacle within Mark II series assemblies. Both parts maintain identical pitch (0.197" / 5.00mm), position count (3), and row configuration (1), ensuring mechanical and electrical compatibility within the same connector family.

The substitute part offers the advantage of active product status, providing current manufacturing availability and supply chain continuity. Both parts maintain equivalent compliance certifications: RoHS compliance (with the substitute meeting ROHS3 specification), MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited), and identical ECCN and HTSUS classifications.

The primary functional difference is connector type: the main part is a receptacle with blade pin contacts and latch lock fastening, while the substitute is a plug with tab contacts and locking ramp fastening. These complementary designs are engineered to mate within the Mark II series architecture.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1-1534077-3 plug connector directly replace the 1-1394355-3 receptacle connector?

A: No. The 1-1534077-3 is a plug connector designed to mate with receptacle connectors. The 1-1394355-3 is a receptacle. These are complementary connector types within the same series and are not direct replacements for each other. They are intended to work together as a mated pair.

Q: What makes these connectors compatible for substitution purposes?

A: Both connectors share critical parameters: Mark II series designation, 3-position configuration, 0.197" (5.00mm) pitch, single row layout, free hanging in-line mounting, IDC cable termination, and discrete wire type. These parameters define mechanical and electrical compatibility within the connector family.

Q: Why is the main part listed as obsolete?

A: The 1-1394355-3 is classified as obsolete by the manufacturer. The 1-1534077-3 substitute maintains active production status, offering continued availability for new designs and system maintenance requiring Mark II series connectors.

Q: Are there compliance differences between these parts?

A: Both parts are RoHS compliant. The substitute part meets the ROHS3 specification, representing a more current compliance standard. Both maintain MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited), identical ECCN classification (EAR99), and HTSUS code (8536.69.8000).

Q: What is the difference between latch lock and locking ramp fastening?

A: Latch lock (main part) and locking ramp (substitute) are different mechanical fastening mechanisms within the Mark II series. Both provide secure mating within their respective connector designs. The specific fastening type is determined by the connector's form factor (receptacle versus plug).

Q: Can I use these connectors with different wire gauges?

A: Wire gauge information is not specified in the provided parameters for either part. Consult the detailed connector specifications and application requirements to determine compatible wire gauges for IDC termination.
