TE Connectivity AMP Connectors 1376600-3 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors 1376600-3 is a 47-position rectangular connector housing designed for plug applications. This component is classified as a free-hanging, in-line connector with female socket contacts and crimp termination. The part is currently in Active product status with 640 pieces available in new original inventory.

Identification of substitute parts becomes necessary when the primary part reaches end-of-life status, inventory constraints occur, or when design flexibility is required within equivalent electrical and mechanical specifications. The substitute part listed maintains identical functional parameters while offering alternative availability and product lifecycle status.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of rectangular connector housings within the TE Connectivity AMP Connectors product line is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical Compatibility Parameters:

• Connector type (Plug)
• Contact type (Female Socket)
• Number of positions (47)
• Number of rows (3)
• Contact termination method (Crimp)

Mechanical Compatibility Parameters:

• Mounting type (Free Hanging In-Line)
• Insulation material (Polybutylene Terephthalate)
• Color (Black)
• Slide Cam feature presence

Environmental & Compliance Parameters:

• Operating temperature range (-30°C ~ 105°C)
• RoHS compliance status
• Moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1)
• Series designation (CI 2)

The substitute part 1376600-4 maintains complete equivalence across all specified parameters, enabling direct substitution within applications designed for the primary part 1376600-3.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Part Selection (1376600-3): The 1376600-3 is designated as Active product status, indicating ongoing manufacturer support and availability. This part is the preferred selection for new designs and applications requiring long-term supply chain stability. Current inventory of 640 pieces supports immediate procurement requirements.

Substitute Part Selection (1376600-4): The 1376600-4 carries Last Time Buy product status, indicating the manufacturer has announced end-of-production. This part remains functionally equivalent across all electrical, mechanical, and environmental parameters. The higher inventory level of 960 pieces provides extended availability during the Last Time Buy window. Selection of this part is appropriate for applications where the primary part becomes unavailable or when inventory consolidation is required before discontinuation.

Compliance Basis: Both parts maintain identical RoHS compliance status and Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL 1), ensuring regulatory and handling requirements are met regardless of part selection. ECCN classification (EAR99) and HTSUS code (8536.69.8000) are identical, supporting consistent export and tariff treatment.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 1376600-4 be used as a direct replacement for 1376600-3 in existing applications?

A: Yes. The 1376600-4 maintains complete electrical and mechanical equivalence with the 1376600-3 across all specified parameters including connector type, contact configuration, position count, mounting method, termination type, and operating temperature range. Direct substitution is supported without design modification.

Q: What is the significance of the different product status designations?

A: The 1376600-3 is designated Active, indicating the manufacturer continues production and provides ongoing supply. The 1376600-4 is designated Last Time Buy, indicating the manufacturer has announced end-of-production. The Last Time Buy status establishes a final procurement window before discontinuation. Selection between these parts depends on application timeline and supply chain requirements.

Q: Are there any differences in RoHS compliance or environmental certifications between these parts?

A: No. Both parts maintain identical RoHS compliance status and Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL 1). Environmental and regulatory certifications are equivalent, supporting interchangeable use in applications with compliance requirements.

Q: What does the "Contacts Not Included" note indicate?

A: Both the 1376600-3 and 1376600-4 are connector housings supplied without pre-installed contacts. Contacts must be procured separately and installed through the crimp termination process. This is standard for this product category and does not affect substitution compatibility.

Q: How do the inventory levels affect part selection?

A: The 1376600-3 has 640 pieces in stock, while the 1376600-4 has 960 pieces available. Inventory levels should be evaluated against application volume and timeline requirements. The higher inventory of the Last Time Buy part (1376600-4) may support larger production runs during its availability window.

Q: Are pitch and row spacing specifications provided for these parts?

A: Pitch and row spacing parameters are not specified in the available technical data for either part. These dimensions are inherent to the CI 2 series designation and 47-position, 3-row configuration. Detailed mechanical drawings should be consulted for precise dimensional requirements.
