Engineering Selection Recommendations

The TE Connectivity 207365-7 serves as the direct active equivalent to the obsolete 207365-1. Both parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters including pitch, position count, current and voltage ratings, operating temperature range, and physical form factor.

The primary distinction between these parts is product status and compliance posture. The 207365-1 is classified as obsolete with not applicable RoHS status, while the 207365-7 is an active product with RoHS Compliant certification. The contact finish specification differs between the parts: the 207365-1 uses Tin-Lead plating while the 207365-7 uses Tin plating. This difference reflects the transition to lead-free manufacturing standards in the electronics industry.

For new designs and ongoing procurement, the 207365-7 is the appropriate selection due to its active product status and RoHS compliance. For legacy system maintenance where the original 207365-1 specification must be preserved, the 207365-7 provides functional and mechanical equivalence with the noted contact finish variation.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 207365-7 be used as a direct replacement for the 207365-1 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The 207365-7 maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters including pitch, position count, current rating, voltage rating, operating temperature range, shrouding configuration, and mounting type. The contact finish difference (Tin versus Tin-Lead) does not affect functional compatibility in standard applications.

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

A: The 207365-1 features Tin-Lead contact plating, while the 207365-7 uses Tin plating. This reflects the industry transition to lead-free manufacturing. Both finishes provide equivalent electrical performance and corrosion resistance for the specified applications. The Tin finish in the 207365-7 aligns with RoHS compliance requirements.

Q: Why is the 207365-1 classified as obsolete?

A: The 207365-1 is obsolete due to the manufacturer's transition to active product lines with updated compliance certifications. The 207365-7 represents the current active equivalent within the Metrimate series.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: The 207365-1 packaging is not specified in available documentation. The 207365-7 is supplied in Tube packaging. Packaging differences do not affect connector functionality or performance.

Q: What is the RoHS compliance status of these connectors?

A: The 207365-1 has not applicable RoHS status. The 207365-7 is RoHS Compliant, meeting current regulatory requirements for lead-free manufacturing and restricted substance limitations.

Q: Are both parts suitable for automotive and industrial applications?

A: Yes. Both the 207365-1 and 207365-7 are specified for automotive, general purpose, and industrial applications. The operating temperature range of -55°C to 130°C and UL94 V-0 flammability rating support these application categories.
