TE Connectivity AMP Connectors 1825108-2 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors 1825108-2 is a 28-position DIP socket with 0.6" (15.24mm) row spacing, gold-plated mating contacts, and through-hole solder termination. This component is classified as obsolete, necessitating identification of active equivalent parts for ongoing design requirements and production continuity. Substitute parts must maintain electrical and mechanical compatibility while meeting current manufacturing and compliance standards.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 1825108-2 is determined by the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Number of Positions: 28 (2 x 14)
• Type: DIP with 0.6" (15.24mm) row spacing
• Pitch - Mating: 0.100" (2.54mm)
• Pitch - Post: 0.100" (2.54mm)
• Mounting Type: Through Hole
• Termination: Solder
• Operating Temperature Range: Minimum -55°C ~ 125°C

Allowable Variations:

• Contact Finish - Mating: Gold or Tin (both provide acceptable electrical conductivity)
• Contact Material - Mating: Phosphor Bronze or Beryllium Copper (both acceptable for DIP socket applications)
• Contact Finish - Post: Gold or Tin (both acceptable for solder termination)
• Contact Material - Post: Phosphor Bronze or Brass Alloy (both acceptable)
• Housing Material: Thermoplastic variations acceptable if flammability rating maintained
• Frame Configuration: Closed or Open frame acceptable
• Termination Post Length: Variations within 0.003" (0.076mm) acceptable

Both identified substitute parts meet these criteria and are classified as active products with current manufacturing availability.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Mill-Max Manufacturing 210-43-628-41-001000:

This substitute maintains full electrical and mechanical compatibility with the 1825108-2. The part is classified as active with confirmed manufacturing availability. ROHS3 compliance and REACH Unaffected status provide regulatory assurance. The operating temperature range of -55°C ~ 125°C matches the original specification. Termination post length variation of 0.003" (0.06mm) is within acceptable tolerance for through-hole PCB applications. Contact finish differences (gold mating contacts with tin posts versus all-gold original) do not compromise electrical performance in standard DIP socket applications.

Assmann WSW A 28-LC-TT:

This substitute provides mechanical and electrical compatibility with the following considerations: The operating temperature range is limited to -55°C ~ 85°C, which is 40°C below the original specification. This limitation restricts use to applications not requiring the full -55°C ~ 125°C range. The part is active with substantial inventory availability. ROHS3 compliance and REACH Unaffected status are confirmed. Open frame configuration differs from the original closed frame design but does not affect electrical function. Tin contact finish on both mating and post surfaces provides acceptable electrical conductivity for standard DIP socket applications.

Both substitute parts are ROHS3 compliant and carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity ratings, matching the original part's compliance profile.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Mill-Max 210-43-628-41-001000 be used as a direct replacement for the TE Connectivity 1825108-2?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical 28-position DIP configuration with 0.6" row spacing, 0.100" pitch, through-hole solder termination, and -55°C ~ 125°C operating temperature range. Contact finish and material variations do not affect functional compatibility in standard DIP socket applications.

Q: What is the significance of the operating temperature difference in the Assmann WSW A 28-LC-TT?

A: The Assmann part operates to 85°C maximum, compared to 125°C for the original. Applications requiring operation above 85°C must use the Mill-Max substitute or the original part. Applications with maximum operating temperatures at or below 85°C can use the Assmann part without thermal limitation.

Q: Does the open frame design of the Assmann A 28-LC-TT affect compatibility?

A: No. Frame configuration (open or closed) does not affect electrical performance or mechanical fit. Both frame types accommodate standard 28-pin DIP integrated circuits. Frame design differences relate to physical appearance and dust protection only.

Q: Are all three parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The original TE Connectivity 1825108-2 and both substitute parts (Mill-Max 210-43-628-41-001000 and Assmann A 28-LC-TT) are ROHS3 compliant.

Q: What is the difference between gold and tin contact finishes?

A: Both finishes provide acceptable electrical conductivity for DIP socket applications. Gold offers superior corrosion resistance and lower contact resistance. Tin provides cost efficiency with adequate performance for standard applications. Contact resistance specifications are provided where available (30mOhm for original and Assmann parts).

Q: Can I mix substitute parts in the same production run?

A: Yes. Both substitute parts meet the same electrical and mechanical specifications for DIP socket function. However, termination post length variations (0.128" original, 0.125" Mill-Max, 0.124" Assmann) are within 0.004" tolerance and do not affect PCB assembly compatibility.

Q: What is the inventory status of these substitute parts?

A: Mill-Max 210-43-628-41-001000 has 1510 pieces in stock. Assmann A 28-LC-TT has 5518 pieces in stock. Both are classified as active products with ongoing manufacturing support.
