TE Connectivity AMP Connectors 282964-7 Terminal Block Header Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors 282964-7 is a 7-position terminal block header with male pins, shrouded on four sides, designed for vertical through-hole mounting with 7.5mm pitch spacing. This component belongs to the Buchanan series and is classified as obsolete product status. The part operates at 15A (UL) and 300V (UL) with an operating temperature range of -40°C to 110°C.

Due to the obsolete product status of the 282964-7, identifying equivalent and substitute parts is necessary to maintain design continuity, ensure supply chain availability, and support ongoing production requirements. Substitute parts must maintain electrical and mechanical compatibility while meeting the same performance specifications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the 282964-7 terminal block header are identified based on strict electrical and mechanical parameter matching. The substitution logic requires equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical Parameters:

• Current rating: 15 A (UL)
• Voltage rating: 300 V (UL)
• Operating temperature range: -40°C to 110°C

Mechanical Parameters:

• Number of positions: 7
• Pitch spacing: 0.295" (7.50mm)
• Header orientation: Vertical
• Mounting type: Through hole
• Termination style: Solder
• Contact tail length: 0.138" (3.50mm)
• Insulation height: 0.472" (12.00mm)

Material & Compliance Parameters:

• Contact material: Copper alloy
• Housing material: Polyamide/Nylon
• Material flammability rating: UL94 V-0
• Contact mating finish: Tin
• RoHS compliance status
• Moisture sensitivity level: 1

The 1776153-7 meets all specified electrical and mechanical parameters and is therefore classified as a direct substitute. The primary distinction is product status (active versus obsolete) and housing color variation (black versus green).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 1776153-7 is a direct electrical and mechanical equivalent to the 282964-7 terminal block header. Both components share identical electrical ratings (15A at 300V UL), mechanical dimensions (7 positions at 7.5mm pitch), and material specifications (copper alloy contacts, polyamide housing, UL94 V-0 flammability rating).

The primary distinction between these parts is product lifecycle status. The 282964-7 is classified as obsolete, while the 1776153-7 maintains active product status with current manufacturing support and supply chain availability. Both parts comply with RoHS requirements and maintain MSL Level 1 (unlimited moisture sensitivity).

The 1776153-7 is suitable for direct substitution in applications currently specified for the 282964-7. The housing color difference (black versus green) is a cosmetic variation that does not affect electrical or mechanical performance. Selection of the 1776153-7 ensures continued access to equivalent terminal block header technology with active manufacturer support.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1776153-7 be used as a direct replacement for the 282964-7 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The 1776153-7 meets all electrical and mechanical specifications of the 282964-7, including current rating (15A UL), voltage rating (300V UL), position count (7), pitch spacing (7.5mm), mounting type (through hole), and operating temperature range (-40°C to 110°C). Both components use identical contact materials, housing materials, and flammability ratings.

Q: What is the difference between the 282964-7 and 1776153-7?

A: The primary differences are product status and housing color. The 282964-7 is obsolete, while the 1776153-7 is active. The 282964-7 features green housing, while the 1776153-7 features black housing. All electrical and mechanical parameters are equivalent.

Q: Are there any compatibility concerns when substituting the 1776153-7 for the 282964-7?

A: No compatibility concerns exist. Both parts are 7-position terminal block headers with identical pitch (7.5mm), vertical orientation, through-hole mounting, and solder termination. The contact tail length (0.138") and insulation height (0.472") are identical, ensuring PCB footprint compatibility.

Q: Does the housing color difference affect performance?

A: No. Housing color is a cosmetic specification and does not affect electrical performance, mechanical function, or thermal characteristics. Both green and black housing materials are polyamide/nylon with identical UL94 V-0 flammability ratings.

Q: What is the inventory status of these parts?

A: The 282964-7 has 673 pieces in stock but is classified as obsolete. The 1776153-7 has 869 pieces in stock and maintains active product status with ongoing manufacturing support.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The 282964-7 is ROHS3 compliant, and the 1776153-7 is RoHS compliant. Both parts meet environmental compliance requirements.

Q: What is the moisture sensitivity level for these components?

A: Both the 282964-7 and 1776153-7 are classified as MSL Level 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions during storage or handling.
