Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both 223995-2 and 5223995-2 are active production parts from TE Connectivity AMP Connectors and are suitable for backplane power connector applications. Selection between these parts should be based on the following factors:

Primary Part (223995-2):

• Use when standard packaging format is required for assembly line integration
• Current inventory: 748 pieces
• RoHS Compliant status

Substitute Part (5223995-2):

• Use when tube packaging format is compatible with receiving and storage procedures
• Higher inventory availability: 3300 pieces
• ROHS3 Compliant status, representing the most current RoHS revision
• Identical electrical and mechanical performance to primary part

Both parts meet UL94 V-0 flammability requirements and operate across the full temperature range of -55°C to 125°C. The 250V voltage rating and gold or gold-palladium contact finish ensure reliable performance in power distribution applications. Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 indicates no special handling requirements during storage or assembly.
