Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Recommendation: TE Connectivity 5103308-1

The TE Connectivity 5103308-1 is the direct equivalent substitute for the obsolete 1-1634688-0. Both components are manufactured by TE Connectivity within the AMP-Latch series. The 5103308-1 maintains identical mechanical and electrical interface specifications, is ROHS3 compliant, and carries active product status. This part is available in tray packaging with 1379 units in stock.

Secondary Recommendations: Molex C-Grid Series

The Molex C-Grid series (0702461001, 0702461003, 0702461004) and C-Grid 87834 series (0878341011, 0878341019, 0878341041) provide cross-manufacturer alternatives. All variants maintain the required 10-position, 2-row, 2.54mm pitch configuration with through-hole solder termination and push-pull fastening. These parts are ROHS3 compliant and carry active product status. Inventory availability ranges from 827 to 26,759 units depending on variant selection.

Tertiary Recommendations: 3M and Amphenol ICC

The 3M 303 series (30310-6002HB) and Amphenol ICC Quickie™ series (52601-G10-4) satisfy all primary substitution criteria. The 3M component is ROHS3 compliant with active status and 18,800 units in stock. The Amphenol ICC component is RoHS non-compliant and carries REACH Affected status, limiting applicability to non-regulated applications.

Not Recommended: HARTING 09195106323740

The HARTING SEK series component (09195106323740) features right-angle mounting orientation, which differs from the vertical mount requirement of the main part. This orientation variant is not suitable as a direct substitute despite meeting other electrical and mechanical criteria.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the TE Connectivity 5103308-1 be used as a direct replacement for the 1-1634688-0?

A: Yes. The 5103308-1 maintains identical connector type, contact configuration, pitch, row spacing, mounting method, termination type, shrouding, and fastening mechanism. Both components are ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1 rating. The primary difference is product status: the original part is obsolete while the 5103308-1 is active.

Q: What are the key differences between the TE Connectivity 5103308-1 and Molex C-Grid alternatives?

A: All parts maintain the same 10-position, 2-row, 2.54mm pitch header configuration. Differences exist in contact material (brass vs. phosphor bronze vs. copper alloy), insulation material composition, contact finish specifications, and contact length dimensions. These variations do not affect mechanical or electrical interface compatibility for standard applications.

Q: Are there packaging considerations when selecting a substitute?

A: Yes. The original 1-1634688-0 is supplied in bulk packaging. Substitute parts are available in multiple packaging formats: tray, bag, and bulk. Selection should align with assembly process requirements and inventory management practices. Tray packaging is standard for high-volume production environments.

Q: Why is the HARTING 09195106323740 listed but not recommended?

A: The HARTING component is a right-angle mount variant, whereas the original part and all recommended substitutes are vertical mount. Mounting orientation is a critical mechanical parameter that determines PCB layout compatibility. Right-angle variants are not interchangeable with vertical mount headers.

Q: What compliance certifications apply to all recommended substitutes?

A: All recommended substitutes (TE Connectivity 5103308-1, Molex C-Grid series, and 3M 303 series) are ROHS3 compliant with UL94 V-0 flammability rating and MSL 1 moisture sensitivity level. The Amphenol ICC component is RoHS non-compliant and REACH Affected, restricting use in regulated markets.

Q: Are there current rating differences between the main part and substitutes?

A: The original 1-1634688-0 specifies 3A current rating. The TE Connectivity 5103308-1 specifies 1A per contact. Molex, 3M, and Amphenol ICC variants do not provide current rating specifications in available documentation. Application-specific current requirements must be evaluated against these specifications.

Q: Can substitutes be intermixed in the same assembly?

A: All recommended substitutes maintain identical mating interface specifications (pitch, row spacing, contact configuration). However, mixing different manufacturers or series within a single assembly is not recommended due to potential variations in contact finish, material composition, and mechanical tolerances that could affect connector reliability over extended use cycles.
