Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the 2-103414-2 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical Parameters:

• Number of positions: 24
• Pitch spacing: 0.100" (2.54mm)
• Current rating: 3A
• Operating temperature range: -65°C ~ 105°C
• Contact type: Male pin
• Contact finish - mating: Gold

Mechanical Parameters:

• Connector type: Header
• Mounting type: Through hole
• Shrouding: Shrouded - 4 wall
• Termination: Solder
• Fastening type: Push-pull
• Overall contact length: 0.589" (14.96mm)
• Insulation height: 0.549" (13.94mm)

Material & Compliance Parameters:

• Insulation material: Thermoplastic
• Contact material: Copper alloy
• Material flammability rating: UL94 V-0
• Series: AMPMODU Mod II

The substitute part 7-103414-2 maintains full equivalence across all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. The primary distinction is product status (active versus obsolete) and post-contact finish specification (tin versus tin-lead).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 7-103414-2 is the direct active equivalent to the obsolete 2-103414-2. Both components are manufactured by TE Connectivity within the AMPMODU Mod II series and maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters including pitch, position count, current rating, operating temperature range, and contact geometry.

Product Status Consideration: The 2-103414-2 is classified as obsolete, while the 7-103414-2 is active. For new designs and ongoing production, the 7-103414-2 is the appropriate selection to ensure long-term component availability and supply chain continuity.

Compliance Differentiation: The 7-103414-2 is ROHS3 compliant, whereas the 2-103414-2 is RoHS non-compliant. This distinction is significant for applications subject to RoHS regulations. The 7-103414-2 meets current environmental compliance requirements.

Post-Contact Finish: The 2-103414-2 specifies tin-lead post finish, while the 7-103414-2 specifies tin post finish. Both maintain the same contact finish thickness (100.0µin / 2.54µm) and are functionally equivalent for solder termination applications.

Packaging: The 7-103414-2 is supplied in tube packaging, providing standardized handling and storage compared to the unspecified packaging of the obsolete part.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 7-103414-2 directly replace the 2-103414-2 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The 7-103414-2 maintains full electrical and mechanical equivalence to the 2-103414-2 across all critical parameters including position count, pitch spacing, current rating, operating temperature range, contact geometry, and shrouding configuration. Direct substitution is supported without design modification.

Q: What is the significance of the post-contact finish difference (tin-lead versus tin)?

A: Both finishes are compatible with solder termination processes and maintain equivalent contact finish thickness specifications. The tin finish in the 7-103414-2 reflects current manufacturing standards and RoHS compliance requirements. The functional performance in solder joint formation is equivalent.

Q: Why is the 2-103414-2 classified as obsolete?

A: The 2-103414-2 has been superseded by the 7-103414-2 within the AMPMODU Mod II series. The 7-103414-2 offers improved compliance status (ROHS3 compliant) and active production support. Obsolete classification indicates that the 2-103414-2 is no longer in active manufacturing.

Q: Are there any compatibility concerns when substituting the 7-103414-2 for the 2-103414-2?

A: No compatibility concerns exist. Both components are identical in form, fit, and function across all electrical and mechanical parameters. The mating interface, pin configuration, and board footprint are identical.

Q: What is the packaging difference between these parts?

A: The 2-103414-2 packaging is not specified in available documentation. The 7-103414-2 is supplied in tube packaging, which is the standard packaging format for this connector type and provides consistent handling and storage conditions.

Q: Is the 7-103414-2 suitable for applications requiring RoHS compliance?

A: Yes. The 7-103414-2 is ROHS3 compliant, making it suitable for applications subject to RoHS regulations. The 2-103414-2 is RoHS non-compliant and should not be used in applications requiring RoHS certification.

Q: Are the current rating and operating temperature specifications identical?

A: Yes. Both the 2-103414-2 and 7-103414-2 are rated for 3A current and operate across the identical temperature range of -65°C to 105°C. Thermal and electrical performance characteristics are equivalent.
