Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both identified substitute parts maintain active product status and comply with ROHS3 and REACH regulatory requirements. The Preci-Dip 110-83-318-41-605101 and Mill-Max 614-43-318-41-001000 share identical electrical and mechanical specifications with the TE Connectivity 2-1437542-2 across all critical mating parameters, including 18-position configuration, 0.3" row spacing, 0.100" pitch, gold contact finish, and through-hole solder termination.

The Mill-Max 614-43-318-41-001000 provides a higher current rating of 3 A compared to the Preci-Dip specification of 1 A, making it suitable for applications requiring increased current capacity. Both substitutes feature UL94 V-0 flammability ratings and unlimited moisture sensitivity levels, indicating compatibility with standard industrial and commercial environments.

Selection between substitute parts should be based on packaging requirements (Bulk for Preci-Dip versus Tube for Mill-Max), current capacity demands, and termination post length specifications (0.125" for Preci-Dip versus 0.165" for Mill-Max).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What makes the Preci-Dip 110-83-318-41-605101 and Mill-Max 614-43-318-41-001000 suitable substitutes for the TE Connectivity 2-1437542-2?

A: Both substitute parts match the critical electrical and mechanical parameters of the TE Connectivity part: 18-position DIP configuration, 0.3" row spacing, 0.100" mating pitch, gold contact finish, beryllium copper mating contacts, through-hole solder termination, and identical operating temperature range. All three parts comply with ROHS3 and REACH requirements.

Q: Are there differences in current rating between the substitute parts?

A: Yes. The Preci-Dip 110-83-318-41-605101 is rated for 1 A, while the Mill-Max 614-43-318-41-001000 is rated for 3 A. Applications requiring higher current capacity should specify the Mill-Max part.

Q: What is the difference in termination post length between the substitutes?

A: The Preci-Dip 110-83-318-41-605101 has a termination post length of 0.125" (3.18mm), while the Mill-Max 614-43-318-41-001000 has a termination post length of 0.165" (4.19mm). Post length selection depends on PCB thickness and solder joint requirements.

Q: Do the substitute parts have different packaging options?

A: Yes. The Preci-Dip 110-83-318-41-605101 is supplied in Bulk packaging, while the Mill-Max 614-43-318-41-001000 is supplied in Tube packaging. Packaging selection depends on inventory management and assembly process requirements.

Q: Are all three parts compliant with environmental and regulatory standards?

A: The substitute parts are confirmed as ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected. Both feature UL94 V-0 material flammability ratings and Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited), indicating suitability for standard industrial applications without special handling requirements.

Q: What is the contact resistance specification for these DIP sockets?

A: Both substitute parts specify a contact resistance of 10mOhm, ensuring consistent electrical performance across all three options.
