Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the TE Connectivity 2-1393531-9 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type & Contact Configuration: Receptacle with Female Socket contacts
• Position Count & Pitch: 16 positions at 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch
• Row Configuration: 2 rows with 0.100" (2.54mm) row spacing
• Termination Method: IDC (Insulation Displacement Contact) for ribbon cable
• Contact Finish: Gold plating for electrical performance and corrosion resistance
• Mounting Style: Free Hanging (In-Line) configuration

The 3M 89116-0001 meets all these critical parameters and qualifies as a direct substitute. Both connectors share identical mechanical and electrical interface specifications, enabling interchangeability in applications requiring 16-position IDC ribbon cable receptacles with gold-plated contacts.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 3M 89116-0001 is the appropriate substitute for the obsolete TE Connectivity 2-1393531-9. Selection rationale is based on the following factors:

Product Status: The TE Connectivity 2-1393531-9 is classified as Obsolete, while the 3M 89116-0001 maintains Active status, ensuring continued availability and manufacturing support.

Compliance & Certifications: Both connectors are ROHS3 Compliant and carry identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8536.69.4051) classifications, confirming regulatory equivalence.

Electrical & Mechanical Compatibility: The connectors share identical specifications across all critical interface parameters: 16-position configuration, 0.100" pitch, 2-row layout, IDC termination, and gold contact finish. These parameters ensure direct mechanical and electrical interchangeability.

Environmental Ratings: Both components carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity ratings, indicating equivalent environmental performance characteristics.

Contact Finish Thickness: The 3M 89116-0001 provides 30.0µin (0.76µm) gold plating compared to 8.00µin (0.203µm) on the TE Connectivity part, offering enhanced contact durability and extended service life.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 3M 89116-0001 directly replace the TE Connectivity 2-1393531-9 in existing applications?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical mechanical and electrical interface specifications, including 16-position configuration, 0.100" pitch, 2-row layout, IDC termination method, and gold contact finish. Direct substitution is supported without design modification.

Q: What is the significance of the wire gauge specification (26-28 AWG) listed for the 3M part?

A: The 26-28 AWG specification indicates the recommended ribbon cable wire gauge for optimal IDC contact performance. The TE Connectivity part does not specify wire gauge in the provided documentation. Both connectors are designed for ribbon cable termination and function with standard IDC ribbon cable configurations.

Q: How do the contact finish thicknesses compare between these connectors?

A: The 3M 89116-0001 provides 30.0µin (0.76µm) gold plating, while the TE Connectivity 2-1393531-9 provides 8.00µin (0.203µm). The thicker plating on the 3M connector offers improved contact durability and resistance to wear during mating cycles.

Q: Are there any compliance or regulatory differences between these parts?

A: No. Both connectors are ROHS3 Compliant, carry identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8536.69.4051) classifications, and maintain MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity ratings. Regulatory and compliance profiles are equivalent.

Q: What is the packaging difference between these connectors?

A: The TE Connectivity 2-1393531-9 packaging is not specified in the provided documentation. The 3M 89116-0001 is supplied in Bulk packaging. Packaging format should be confirmed with the supplier based on application requirements.

Q: Why is the TE Connectivity part classified as Obsolete?

A: Product obsolescence is determined by the manufacturer and typically reflects discontinuation of production. The 3M 89116-0001 maintains Active status, ensuring ongoing availability for new designs and system support.
