TE Connectivity 1617166-9 General Purpose Relay DPDT 1A 5V Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The TE Connectivity 1617166-9 is a general purpose relay with DPDT (Double Pole Double Throw) contact configuration, rated for 1A at 5VDC coil voltage. This through-hole mounted relay is designed for applications requiring hermetically sealed switching contacts with integrated diode protection. The part is currently active in production with 1005 units in stock.

Substitute parts become necessary when the primary part number experiences extended lead times, inventory constraints, or when design flexibility permits selection from equivalent alternatives within the same electrical and mechanical parameter set. Identifying qualified substitutes ensures design continuity and supply chain resilience.

The substitute part JMACT-5XP meets all specified parameters and is therefore classified as a parametric equivalent.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the 1617166-9 and JMACT-5XP are active production parts manufactured by TE Connectivity Aerospace, Defense and Marine. Selection between these parts is based on availability and series designation rather than electrical or mechanical performance differences.

1617166-9 (MAT, CII Series): Primary selection when available. Current inventory of 1005 units supports immediate procurement.

JMACT-5XP (MAC Series): Direct parametric equivalent suitable for substitution when primary part availability is constrained. Current inventory of 801 units is available.

Both parts carry identical compliance certifications: RoHS non-compliant status, REACH Unaffected designation, EAR99 export classification, and HTSUS code 8536.41.0050. No compliance or regulatory differences exist between the two parts.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can JMACT-5XP be used as a direct replacement for 1617166-9 in existing designs?

A: Yes. JMACT-5XP is a parametric equivalent with identical electrical specifications, mechanical configuration, and environmental ratings. No circuit modifications or PCB layout changes are required.

Q: Are there differences in coil voltage or contact ratings between these parts?
