Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 6469169-1 be used as a direct replacement for the 1469169-1 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The 6469169-1 is electrically and mechanically equivalent to the 1469169-1 across all critical parameters, including position count, pitch, connector type, mounting configuration, and contact layout. No design modifications are required for substitution.

Q: What are the key differences between these two parts?

A: The primary differences are product status and regulatory compliance. The 1469169-1 is obsolete and RoHS non-compliant, while the 6469169-1 is active and ROHS3 compliant. The 6469169-1 also provides documented contact finish specifications and current rating information.

Q: Why is the 1469169-1 classified as obsolete?

A: Obsolescence is determined by the manufacturer based on market demand, product lifecycle, and regulatory requirements. The availability of the active equivalent 6469169-1 provides a clear migration path for users of the obsolete part.

Q: Are there any compatibility concerns when switching from 1469169-1 to 6469169-1?

A: No compatibility concerns exist. Both parts maintain identical electrical specifications (voltage rating, operating temperature range, contact layout) and mechanical specifications (mounting type, pitch, row/column configuration). The parts are functionally interchangeable.

Q: What is the significance of the ROHS3 compliance on the 6469169-1?

A: ROHS3 compliance indicates that the 6469169-1 meets current European Union Restriction of Hazardous Substances regulations. This certification is required for products sold in EU markets and is increasingly required by global customers. The 1469169-1, being RoHS non-compliant, may face restrictions in certain markets.

Q: Does the gold contact finish on the 6469169-1 affect performance compared to the 1469169-1?

A: The gold contact finish on the 6469169-1 provides enhanced corrosion resistance and contact reliability. Both parts are designed for the same electrical and mechanical performance within the specified operating parameters.

Q: What packaging options are available for the 6469169-1?

A: The 6469169-1 is supplied in tube packaging, which is standard for automated assembly processes and provides efficient inventory management.

Q: Are there any lead time or availability differences between these parts?

A: The 6469169-1 is an active product with established supply channels, while the 1469169-1 is obsolete and subject to limited availability. For new orders and ongoing production, the 6469169-1 is the recommended choice for supply continuity.
