Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the TE Connectivity 2-5916783-1 is determined by the following critical parameters:

Primary Compatibility Criteria:

• Socket type: PGA, ZIF (ZIP) configuration
• Pitch specification: 0.100" (2.54mm) for both mating and post positions
• Contact finish: Gold plating on mating contacts
• Mounting configuration: Through-hole solder termination
• Flammability rating: UL94 V-0 compliance

The Aries Electronics 361-PRS19001-12 qualifies as a substitute based on matching socket type, pitch specifications, gold-plated mating contacts, through-hole mounting, solder termination, and identical flammability rating. Both components are designed for PGA socket applications with identical mating pitch and contact finish specifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Aries Electronics 361-PRS19001-12 is an active product with current manufacturing support, whereas the TE Connectivity 2-5916783-1 is obsolete. Both components meet UL94 V-0 flammability requirements and share identical MSL ratings of 1 (Unlimited).

The Aries Electronics substitute provides ROHS3 compliance, offering regulatory advantage for new designs and systems requiring environmental compliance documentation. The TE Connectivity original part carries no RoHS applicability designation due to its obsolete status.

Both components feature identical mating pitch (0.100" / 2.54mm), gold contact finish with 30.0µin thickness, through-hole solder termination, and post pitch specifications. These matching parameters establish functional equivalence for PGA socket applications.

The primary differences are housing material composition (LCP versus PPS) and contact material base (Copper Alloy versus Beryllium Copper). Both housing materials are rated UL94 V-0 and support identical moisture sensitivity levels.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Aries Electronics 361-PRS19001-12 directly replace the TE Connectivity 2-5916783-1 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both components share identical mating pitch (0.100" / 2.54mm), gold contact finish specifications (30.0µin thickness), through-hole solder termination, and post pitch. The matching electrical and mechanical parameters establish direct substitution compatibility for PGA socket applications.

Q: What is the significance of the different contact materials (Copper Alloy versus Beryllium Copper)?

A: Both contact materials are specified in the provided parameters. Beryllium Copper in the Aries Electronics part offers enhanced spring characteristics and contact durability. The selection between these materials depends on application-specific performance requirements not addressed in this reference.

Q: Why is the TE Connectivity part listed as obsolete?

A: Product status is provided in the manufacturer specifications. Obsolete designation indicates the part is no longer in active production. The Aries Electronics 361-PRS19001-12 maintains active product status with current manufacturing availability.

Q: Are there differences in operating temperature specifications?

A: The TE Connectivity 2-5916783-1 does not specify an operating temperature range in the provided parameters. The Aries Electronics 361-PRS19001-12 specifies -65°C ~ 125°C operating temperature. This parameter difference should be evaluated against specific application requirements.

Q: What is the difference between the housing materials?

A: The TE Connectivity part uses Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP) housing, while the Aries Electronics substitute uses Polyphenylene Sulfide (PPS). Both materials meet UL94 V-0 flammability requirements. Material selection impacts thermal and chemical resistance characteristics specific to application environments.

Q: Does the Aries Electronics part have RoHS compliance?

A: Yes. The Aries Electronics 361-PRS19001-12 is ROHS3 compliant. The TE Connectivity 2-5916783-1 carries "Not applicable" RoHS status due to its obsolete classification. ROHS3 compliance is relevant for designs requiring environmental regulatory adherence.

Q: Are the post specifications identical between both parts?

A: Both components specify 0.100" (2.54mm) post pitch. The TE Connectivity part specifies 0.093" (2.36mm) termination post length with gold finish. The Aries Electronics part specifies 0.125" (3.18mm) termination post length with tin finish. These differences affect PCB layout and solder joint characteristics.
