Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the 2-175677-5 are identified based on electrical and mechanical parameter compatibility. The primary substitution criteria include:

Critical Matching Parameters:

• Connector Type: Plug
• Number of Positions: 36
• Number of Rows: 2
• Mounting Type: Free Hanging (In-Line)
• Termination Method: IDC
• Connector Style: Center Strip Contacts
• Contact Finish: Gold
• Contact Finish Thickness: 30.0µin (0.76µm)
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)

Parts meeting all these parameters are classified as direct equivalents or functionally compatible substitutes. Secondary considerations include product status, RoHS compliance, and packaging format, which may influence selection based on application requirements and regulatory constraints.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

2-5175677-5 (TE Connectivity AMP Connectors): This part is the direct equivalent from the same manufacturer and series (CHAMP .050 II). It maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications to the main part 2-175677-5 while offering the advantage of active product status and RoHS compliance. This part is the preferred selection for applications requiring regulatory compliance and long-term component availability.

10136-6000EC (3M): This part meets all critical electrical and mechanical parameters and is classified as active with ROHS3 compliance. It differs in manufacturer, series designation (101, Mini D Ribbon), and includes shielding features. This part is suitable for applications where cross-manufacturer compatibility is acceptable and shielding characteristics are beneficial or neutral to system performance.

Selection between substitute parts should be based on design requirements, regulatory compliance mandates, and supply chain considerations. Both substitute parts provide functional equivalence to the obsolete 2-175677-5.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 2-5175677-5 be used as a direct replacement for the 2-175677-5?

A: Yes. The 2-5175677-5 maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications, including connector type, position count, mounting configuration, termination method, contact finish, and moisture sensitivity rating. The primary differences are product status (active versus obsolete) and RoHS compliance status.

Q: What is the significance of the shielding feature on the 10136-6000EC?

A: The 10136-6000EC includes shielding as a feature. This parameter is provided in the specification data. Shielding characteristics should be evaluated against application electromagnetic interference requirements to determine compatibility.

Q: Are there packaging differences between the substitute parts?

A: Yes. The 2-175677-5 is supplied without specified packaging, the 2-5175677-5 is packaged in boxes, and the 10136-6000EC is supplied in trays. Packaging format may influence handling, storage, and integration into assembly processes.

Q: Does RoHS compliance affect functional compatibility?

A: RoHS compliance is a regulatory and material composition specification, not a functional parameter. The 2-175677-5 is RoHS non-compliant, while both substitute parts are RoHS compliant. Functional compatibility is determined by electrical and mechanical parameters, which are identical across all three parts.

Q: Can the 10136-6000EC from 3M be used in applications originally designed for the TE Connectivity 2-175677-5?

A: The 10136-6000EC meets all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. Cross-manufacturer substitution is technically valid based on parameter equivalence. Design validation should confirm that series differences (CHAMP .050 II versus 101 Mini D Ribbon) and shielding characteristics do not introduce incompatibilities in the specific application context.

Q: What inventory levels are available for each part?

A: The 2-175677-5 has 848 pieces in stock, the 2-5175677-5 has 964 pieces in stock, and the 10136-6000EC has 1025 pieces in stock. Inventory availability should be confirmed at the time of procurement.
