Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the 1-794680-4 are identified based on electrical and mechanical parameter equivalence within the Micro MATE-N-LOK connector series. The following parameters determine substitution eligibility:

Critical Matching Parameters:

  • Connector type (Header)
  • Contact type (Male Pin)
  • Number of positions (14)
  • Number of rows (2)
  • Pitch spacing (0.118" / 3.00mm)
  • Row spacing (0.118" / 3.00mm)
  • Mounting method (Through Hole)
  • Shrouding configuration (Shrouded - 4 Wall)
  • Termination method (Solder)
  • Fastening type (Locking Ramp)
  • Operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 105°C)
  • Voltage rating (250V)

The substitute part 4-794680-4 maintains full electrical and mechanical compatibility with the original 1-794680-4 specification. Differences in contact finish material (Tin versus Tin-Lead) and RoHS compliance status do not affect functional interchangeability in the specified application category.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 4-794680-4 is the direct substitute for the obsolete 1-794680-4. Both parts share identical electrical and mechanical specifications within the Micro MATE-N-LOK series, ensuring full functional compatibility in board-to-cable/wire applications requiring 14-position, 3.00mm pitch headers with through-hole solder termination.

The 4-794680-4 carries active product status, providing assured long-term availability and supply chain continuity. This part is RoHS compliant, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements for new product designs and manufacturing operations. The contact finish material change from Tin-Lead to Tin does not affect electrical performance or mechanical interchangeability.

Selection of the 4-794680-4 is appropriate for applications where the original 1-794680-4 was specified, particularly where RoHS compliance and active product support are required.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 4-794680-4 be used as a direct replacement for the 1-794680-4?

A: Yes. The 4-794680-4 is electrically and mechanically equivalent to the 1-794680-4.
