Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of rectangular connectors is determined by strict equivalence across electrical and mechanical parameters. The following criteria establish whether a part qualifies as a direct substitute for the TE Connectivity 206763-1:

Critical Matching Parameters:

• Connector type (Header)
• Contact type (Male Pin)
• Number of positions (24)
• Number of rows (4)
• Pitch configuration (0.197" / 5.00mm mating pitch and row spacing)
• Mounting method (Through Hole)
• Shrouding configuration (Shrouded - 4 Wall)
• Termination method (Solder)
• Fastening mechanism (Latch Lock)
• Current rating (7.5A)
• Voltage rating (600V)
• Operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 130°C)
• Contact material (Brass)
• Insulation material (Polyamide/Nylon)
• Flammability rating (UL94 V-0)

Parts meeting all these criteria are classified as direct substitutes. Variations in product status, packaging format, or contact finish composition do not affect functional interchangeability when all electrical and mechanical parameters remain identical.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The part number 1-206763-1 is a direct functional equivalent to the obsolete 206763-1. Both parts share identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters including connector geometry, contact configuration, pitch spacing, current and voltage ratings, and operating temperature range.

The primary distinction between these parts is product status and regulatory compliance. The original 206763-1 is classified as obsolete and carries RoHS non-compliant status. The substitute part 1-206763-1 maintains active product status and achieves RoHS compliance, making it the preferred selection for new designs and ongoing production requirements.

The contact finish composition differs between the two parts: the original uses Tin-Lead plating while the substitute uses Tin plating. Both finishes maintain identical thickness specifications (150.0µin / 3.81µm) and provide equivalent electrical performance and reliability characteristics for the specified applications.

For applications requiring the exact Tin-Lead contact finish of the original part, the obsolete status of 206763-1 may present sourcing constraints. In such cases, the RoHS-compliant 1-206763-1 with Tin finish provides full functional compatibility while meeting current regulatory requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are the 206763-1 and 1-206763-1 connectors mechanically interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical mechanical specifications including 24-position configuration, 4-row arrangement, 5.00mm pitch spacing, through-hole mounting, shrouded 4-wall design, and solder termination. They are mechanically interchangeable in all applications.

Q: What is the difference in contact finish between these parts?

A: The original 206763-1 features Tin-Lead contact plating, while the substitute 1-206763-1 uses Tin plating. Both finishes are applied at 150.0µin (3.81µm) thickness and provide equivalent electrical conductivity and corrosion resistance for the specified applications.

Q: Why is the 206763-1 listed as obsolete?

A: The 206763-1 carries obsolete product status, indicating it is no longer in active production. The substitute part 1-206763-1 maintains active status and is the current production equivalent.

Q: Does the RoHS compliance difference affect electrical performance?

A: No. RoHS compliance status reflects manufacturing process and material composition standards rather than electrical or mechanical performance. Both parts deliver identical electrical characteristics and reliability for the specified applications.

Q: What packaging differences exist between these parts?

A: The original 206763-1 packaging format is not specified in the available data. The substitute 1-206763-1 is supplied in Tray packaging. Packaging format does not affect connector functionality or performance.

Q: Can the 1-206763-1 be used as a direct replacement in existing designs?

A: Yes. The 1-206763-1 is a direct functional equivalent with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. It is suitable for replacement in existing applications and for new designs requiring this connector specification.

Q: Are there any temperature or current rating differences?

A: No. Both parts maintain identical operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 130°C) and current rating (7.5A) at 600V voltage rating.

Q: What is the moisture sensitivity level for these connectors?

A: Both parts carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) classification, indicating no moisture sensitivity constraints for storage or handling.
