Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the Molex 2014520101 is determined by the following critical parameters:

Substitution Criteria:

• Base Product Number alignment (201452 series)
• Pitch specification (1.25mm / 0.049")
• Number of positions (10-circuit configuration)
• Connector type classification (Rectangular Connector Plug)
• RoHS compliance status
• Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL 1)

The substitute part 2014520102 shares the same base product number (201452) and maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications for pitch, circuit count, and connector classification. Both parts are RoHS compliant with MSL 1 rating, ensuring compatibility in applications requiring these compliance certifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For Obsolete Part Replacement:

The Molex 2014520102 is the designated substitute for the obsolete 2014520101. Both components share the same base product number (201452) and maintain identical pitch (1.25mm) and circuit count (10-position) specifications. The substitute part is currently in active production status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity.

Compliance Considerations:

Both the main part and substitute are RoHS compliant and carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating, making them suitable for applications with standard handling and storage requirements. The substitute part carries ECCN classification EAR99 and HTSUS code 8536.69.4040.

Inventory Status:

The main part (2014520101) maintains adequate stock levels (765 pieces) for immediate procurement. The substitute part (2014520102) is also well-stocked (753 pieces), supporting both legacy system maintenance and forward-looking design transitions.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Why is the 2014520101 classified as obsolete?

A: The 2014520101 has reached end-of-life status in Molex's product portfolio. The 2014520102 represents the active continuation within the same 201452 base product family.

Q: Are the 2014520101 and 2014520102 electrically interchangeable?

A: Both parts maintain identical pitch (1.25mm) and 10-circuit configuration. Electrical compatibility is determined by matching these core parameters along with contact type, current rating (1A), and voltage rating (125VAC/DC) specifications provided for the substitute part.

Q: What is the primary difference between these two parts?

A: The main documented difference is mounting configuration. The 2014520102 is specified as Surface Mount, Right Angle, while the 2014520101 mounting details are not provided in the available documentation. Both maintain the same connector pitch and circuit count.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both the 2014520101 and 2014520102 are RoHS compliant and carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating.

Q: What packaging is available for the substitute part?

A: The 2014520102 is supplied in Bulk packaging format.

Q: Can I use the 2014520102 in new designs?

A: Yes. The 2014520102 is in active production status and is suitable for new design implementations. It shares the same base product number and core electrical specifications as the obsolete 2014520101.

Q: What is the operating temperature range?

A: The substitute part 2014520102 operates across -40°C to 105°C, suitable for industrial and commercial applications.
