TE Connectivity AMP Connectors 1-284514-9 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors 1-284514-9 is a 19 Position Terminal Block Header with male pins, shrouded on four sides, designed for 0.138" (3.50mm) pitch vertical through-hole mounting. This component is classified as obsolete, necessitating identification of active equivalent parts for ongoing procurement and new design applications. The terminal block operates at 11 A (UL) and 300 V (UL) with an operating temperature range of -40°C to 110°C. Due to its obsolete status, sourcing equivalent active components ensures design continuity and supply chain reliability.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the TE Connectivity 1-284514-9 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Mechanical Compatibility:

• 19 position count
• 0.138" (3.50mm) pitch spacing
• Vertical orientation
• Through-hole mounting configuration
• Male pin header with four-side shrouding

Electrical Compatibility:

• 300 V UL voltage rating
• Solder termination style
• UL94 V-0 flammability rating
• Polyamide (PA66) housing material
• ROHS3 compliance

Functional Equivalence:

• Identical connector topology and pin arrangement
• Compatible with existing PCB layouts designed for the original part
• Interchangeable in applications requiring 19-position terminal block headers with 3.5mm pitch

The Molex 0395011019 meets all mechanical and electrical compatibility criteria, with documented differences in current rating, operating temperature maximum, contact material, and color noted in the parameter comparison.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Substitute: Molex 0395011019

The Molex 0395011019 is the qualified equivalent for the obsolete TE Connectivity 1-284514-9. Both components share identical mechanical pitch, position count, orientation, mounting type, and termination methodology. Both maintain UL94 V-0 flammability compliance and ROHS3 certification, meeting regulatory requirements for equivalent applications.

Documented Differences Requiring Application Review:

1. Current Rating: The Molex substitute is rated at 8 A (UL) compared to the original 11 A (UL). Applications requiring current levels between 8 A and 11 A must be evaluated against the substitute's lower rating.

2. Operating Temperature Maximum: The Molex part operates to 105°C maximum versus 110°C for the original. Applications requiring sustained operation above 105°C require alternative solutions.

3. Contact Material: Phosphor bronze (original) differs from brass (substitute). Both materials provide adequate electrical conductivity and corrosion resistance for standard terminal block applications.

4. Housing Color: Green (original) versus black (substitute) represents a cosmetic difference with no functional impact.

5. Insulation Height: The 0.06mm difference (9.20mm versus 9.14mm) is negligible for PCB layout compatibility.

Compliance Status: Both components are ROHS3 compliant and carry identical voltage ratings (300 V UL), ensuring regulatory and electrical compatibility for equivalent applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Molex 0395011019 directly replace the TE Connectivity 1-284514-9 in existing designs?

A: Direct replacement is possible for applications operating at 8 A or below and maximum temperatures of 105°C. The identical 19-position, 3.50mm pitch configuration ensures PCB footprint compatibility. Applications exceeding these parameters require design modification or alternative components.

Q: What is the significance of the different contact materials (Phosphor Bronze vs. Brass)?

A: Both phosphor bronze and brass provide adequate electrical conductivity and corrosion resistance for standard terminal block applications. The material difference does not affect electrical performance in typical industrial and commercial environments. Specialized applications requiring specific contact material properties should be evaluated independently.

Q: Are there dimensional compatibility concerns between the two parts?

A: The insulation height difference of 0.06mm (9.20mm versus 9.14mm) is negligible and does not affect PCB layout or mating connector compatibility. All critical mechanical dimensions—pitch, position count, and mounting hole locations—are identical.

Q: Does the color difference (Green vs. Black) affect functionality?

A: Housing color is a cosmetic attribute with no functional impact. The color difference does not affect electrical performance, thermal characteristics, or mechanical compatibility.

Q: What compliance certifications apply to both components?

A: Both the TE Connectivity 1-284514-9 and Molex 0395011019 are ROHS3 compliant and carry UL94 V-0 flammability ratings. Both meet 300 V UL voltage requirements, ensuring regulatory equivalence for applications subject to these standards.

Q: How should I handle applications currently using the obsolete TE Connectivity part?

A: Verify that your application operates at 8 A or below and maximum temperatures not exceeding 105°C. If these conditions are met, the Molex 0395011019 provides a direct functional equivalent. For applications exceeding these parameters, consult alternative component sources or design modifications.

Q: Is the Molex part available in the same packaging as the original?

A: The Molex 0395011019 is supplied in bulk packaging, whereas the original TE Connectivity part packaging is not specified. Confirm packaging requirements with your procurement department to ensure compatibility with assembly processes.
