Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 4-794619-6 serves as the direct active equivalent to the obsolete 1-794619-6. Both parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters including pitch, position count, voltage rating, temperature range, and flammability certification.

The primary distinction between these parts is product status and regulatory compliance. The 1-794619-6 is classified as obsolete and carries RoHS non-compliant status. The 4-794619-6 is an active product with RoHS Compliant certification, making it the appropriate selection for new designs and production applications subject to environmental regulations.

The contact finish on the post differs between the two parts: the main part uses Tin-Lead while the substitute uses Tin. This change reflects modern manufacturing standards and regulatory requirements. Both finishes maintain the specified contact finish thickness of 100.0µin (2.54µm) and are compatible with standard solder assembly processes.

Packaging format differs between the parts, with the main part supplied in bulk and the substitute supplied in trays. This distinction affects handling and inventory management but does not impact electrical or mechanical performance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 4-794619-6 be used as a direct replacement for the 1-794619-6 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The 4-794619-6 maintains full electrical and mechanical equivalence to the 1-794619-6 across all critical parameters including pitch, position count, voltage rating, operating temperature range, and connector geometry. Direct substitution is supported without design modification.

Q: What is the significance of the RoHS compliance difference between these parts?

A: The 1-794619-6 is RoHS non-compliant while the 4-794619-6 is RoHS Compliant. RoHS compliance is a regulatory requirement in many markets and applications. The 4-794619-6 is the appropriate selection for applications subject to RoHS directives or customer requirements.

Q: Does the change from Tin-Lead to Tin contact finish affect compatibility?
