Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Phoenix Contact 1900196 is determined by the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Number of positions: 14
• Pitch: 0.197" (5.00mm)
• Header orientation: 90°, Right Angle
• Type: Header, Male Pins, Shrouded (4 Side)
• Mounting type: Through Hole
• Current rating (IEC): 12A minimum
• Voltage rating (IEC): 400V minimum
• Material flammability: UL94 V-0
• RoHS compliance status

Allowable Variations:

• Termination style (Press-Fit vs. Solder)
• Contact tail length
• Housing material (PBT vs. LCP)
• Color (Green vs. Black)
• Current/Voltage ratings (UL): May exceed minimum requirements
• Series designation: Different COMBICON series acceptable if all mandatory parameters align

The identified substitute parts (1776812 and 1836803) maintain all mandatory electrical and mechanical parameters while differing in termination methodology and housing material composition.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Part 1776812 (COMBICON MSTB Series): This substitute maintains identical electrical specifications (12A IEC, 400V IEC, 15A UL, 300V UL) and mechanical configuration to the main part. The primary difference is termination methodology: solder termination replaces press-fit. Housing material remains PBT with UL94 V-0 rating. This part is currently in active production status with 986 units in stock. Selection of this substitute requires PCB design modification to accommodate solder termination instead of press-fit mounting.

Part 1836803 (COMBICON CC Series): This substitute meets all mandatory electrical and mechanical requirements with enhanced current rating (16A UL vs. 15A UL). Housing material differs (LCP vs. PBT), and color is black rather than green. Contact tail length is significantly shorter (0.079" vs. 0.165"), requiring PCB footprint verification. This part is active production status with 849 units in stock. Operating temperature range is specified (-40°C ~ 100°C), whereas the main part does not provide this specification.

Both substitutes carry RoHS compliance and UL94 V-0 flammability ratings, matching the main part's regulatory status.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can Phoenix Contact 1776812 be used as a direct replacement for 1900196?

A: Electrical and mechanical compatibility is confirmed. The 1776812 maintains identical pitch (5.00mm), position count (14), orientation (90°), and electrical ratings. The termination method differs (solder vs. press-fit), requiring PCB design modification. Both parts are RoHS compliant with UL94 V-0 housing material.

Q: What is the primary difference between the 1900196 and 1836803?

A: Both parts share identical position count, pitch, orientation, and shrouded male pin configuration. Differences include: housing material (PBT vs. LCP), color (green vs. black), contact tail length (0.165" vs. 0.079"), and termination style (press-fit vs. solder). The 1836803 provides enhanced UL current rating (16A vs. 15A) and specified operating temperature range.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these substitutes?

A: The main part 1900196 is listed with unspecified packaging. Substitute 1776812 is packaged in bulk format with 986 units in stock. Substitute 1836803 is also bulk packaged with 849 units in stock. Packaging format does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility.

Q: Which substitute is recommended for new designs?

A: Selection depends on termination methodology requirements. For press-fit applications, neither substitute maintains this termination style; both require solder termination. The 1776812 maintains identical housing material (PBT) and color (green) to the original part. The 1836803 offers enhanced current rating and specified temperature range but introduces material and color variations.

Q: Do all three parts meet the same regulatory standards?

A: All three parts are RoHS compliant and carry UL94 V-0 material flammability rating. Electrical specifications meet or exceed IEC and UL standards across all variants.
