Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the TE Connectivity 1-822473-6 is determined by strict adherence to the following critical parameters:

Primary Substitution Criteria:

Type: PLCC Socket
Number of Positions: 68 (4 x 17)
Pitch - Mating: 0.050" (1.27mm)
Pitch - Post: 0.100" (2.54mm)
Mounting Type: Through Hole
Features: Closed Frame
Termination: Solder
Material Flammability Rating: UL94 V-0
RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant
Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)

All substitute parts listed meet these core electrical and mechanical parameters. Variations in contact material composition, housing material formulation, operating temperature range, and contact resistance are secondary parameters that do not preclude substitution when primary criteria are satisfied. All substitute parts maintain compliance with ROHS3, REACH, and EAR99 classifications identical to the main part.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Direct Substitutes (Highest Compatibility):

The Assmann WSW Components A-CCS 068-Z-T and Adam Tech PLCC-68-AT are direct functional equivalents to the TE Connectivity 1-822473-6. Both parts maintain identical mating pitch (0.050" / 1.27mm), post pitch (0.100" / 2.54mm), and contact material specifications (phosphor bronze). Both are active products with current manufacturing status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity. Both maintain ROHS3 compliance and UL94 V-0 flammability ratings.

Alternative Substitutes (Secondary Selection):

The 3M 8468-11B1-RK-TP (Series 8400) provides functional substitution with active product status and ROHS3 compliance. This part differs in post pitch specification (0.050" / 1.27mm versus 0.100" / 2.54mm on the main part) and employs copper alloy contact materials rather than phosphor bronze. PCB layout modifications are required for this substitution due to post pitch variance.

The Mill-Max Manufacturing Corp. 940-44-068-24-000000 (Series 940) offers substitution with extended operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C) and active product status. This part differs in mating pitch specification (0.100" / 2.54mm versus 0.050" / 1.27mm on the main part) and employs beryllium copper and brass alloy contact materials. PCB layout modifications are required for this substitution due to mating pitch variance.

Compliance and Certification:

All substitute parts maintain ROHS3 compliance, REACH unaffected status, and EAR99 export classification identical to the main part. All parts carry UL94 V-0 flammability ratings and MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity levels. All parts are suitable for solder termination applications.
