Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the TE Connectivity 1-1445092-1 is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Connector Type: Header
• Contact Type: Male Pin
• Pitch - Mating: 0.118" (3.00mm)
• Number of Positions: 11
• Number of Rows: 1
• Shrouding: Shrouded - 4 Wall
• Termination: Solder
• Fastening Type: Locking Ramp
• Contact Material: Brass
• Contact Finish - Mating: Gold
• Material Flammability Rating: UL94 V-0
• Insulation Color: Black
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)

Allowable Variations:

• Mounting Type: Surface Mount, Right Angle (primary) or Through Hole, Right Angle (functional alternative)
• Insulation Material: Polyamide (PA), Nylon or Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP), Glass Filled
• Contact Finish - Post: Tin-Lead or Tin
• Product Status: Active substitutes preferred for obsolete parts
• RoHS Compliance: Active RoHS3-compliant alternatives available

The Molex 0436501105 and 0436501114 rectangular connectors satisfy these substitution criteria through identical pitch, position count, shrouding configuration, and contact specifications, with the primary distinction being mounting methodology and insulation material composition.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Molex 0436501114 (Primary Substitute)

The Molex 0436501114 is the direct functional equivalent for surface mount applications. This part maintains identical pitch (3.00mm), position count (11), shrouding configuration (4-wall), and contact specifications. The 0436501114 is classified as active product status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity. The part achieves ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, addressing regulatory requirements that the obsolete TE Connectivity part does not satisfy. The insulation material composition (Liquid Crystal Polymer, glass-filled) provides enhanced thermal and mechanical properties compared to polyamide nylon. Contact finish thickness on mating surfaces (30.0µin) exceeds the original specification (15.0µin), providing improved contact durability. The solder retention feature supports automated assembly processes.

Molex 0436501105 (Secondary Substitute)

The Molex 0436501105 serves as a functional alternative for applications where through-hole mounting is acceptable. This part shares identical electrical and mechanical specifications with the primary substitute, including pitch, position count, shrouding, and contact materials. The through-hole mounting configuration requires PCB design modification but provides enhanced mechanical retention for high-vibration environments. This part is also active product status with ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected designation. The contact post length specification (0.125" / 3.18mm) is provided, enabling precise PCB hole depth planning.

Regulatory and Compliance Considerations

Both Molex substitutes provide ROHS3 compliance, addressing regulatory requirements for new designs and procurement. The original TE Connectivity part is RoHS non-compliant, making it unsuitable for applications subject to RoHS directives. Both substitutes maintain UL94 V-0 flammability rating and unlimited moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1), preserving environmental and reliability specifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Molex 0436501114 directly replace the TE Connectivity 1-1445092-1 without PCB modification?

A: Yes. Both parts are surface mount, right-angle configurations with identical pitch (3.00mm), position count (11), and shrouding (4-wall). PCB footprint compatibility requires verification of solder pad dimensions and spacing, but the electrical and mechanical interfaces are equivalent.

Q: What is the primary difference between the Molex 0436501105 and 0436501114?

A: The 0436501105 is through-hole mounted, while the 0436501114 is surface mount. Both share identical pitch, position count, shrouding, and contact specifications. Selection depends on PCB mounting methodology and design requirements.

Q: Are there operating temperature specifications for the Molex substitutes?

A: Operating temperature is not specified in the provided data for either Molex part. The original TE Connectivity part specifies -40°C to 105°C operation. Consult Molex technical documentation for thermal operating range confirmation.

Q: Does the increased contact finish thickness on the Molex parts affect mating force or compatibility?

A: Contact finish thickness (30.0µin on Molex versus 15.0µin on TE Connectivity) does not affect mating compatibility. The increased thickness provides enhanced contact durability and wear resistance without altering electrical or mechanical interface specifications.

Q: What is the significance of the insulation material change from polyamide nylon to liquid crystal polymer?

A: Liquid crystal polymer (LCP) with glass filling provides superior thermal stability, dimensional consistency, and mechanical strength compared to polyamide nylon. This material composition supports higher processing temperatures and improved long-term reliability in demanding applications.

Q: Are the Molex substitutes suitable for medical, military, and telecommunications applications?

A: The Molex parts list general purpose, medical, military, and telecommunications applications. Confirm specific application requirements and qualification standards with Molex technical support for regulated industries.

Q: What is the voltage rating for the Molex substitutes?

A: Voltage rating is not specified in the provided data for the Molex parts. The original TE Connectivity part specifies 250V. Consult Molex technical documentation for voltage rating confirmation.

Q: How does RoHS3 compliance affect component selection?

A: RoHS3 compliance restricts hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment. Both Molex substitutes are ROHS3 compliant, making them suitable for applications subject to RoHS directives. The original TE Connectivity part is RoHS non-compliant and unsuitable for regulated procurement.

Q: Is the contact post finish change from tin-lead to tin significant?

A: The change from tin-lead to tin reflects modern lead-free soldering standards. Tin finish is compatible with lead-free solder processes and provides equivalent electrical performance. This change aligns with RoHS compliance requirements.

Q: What inventory considerations apply to these substitutes?

A: The Molex 0436501114 has 1036 pieces in stock, and the 0436501105 has 1024 pieces in stock, compared to 724 pieces for the obsolete TE Connectivity part. Active product status ensures continued availability for future procurement.
