Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The 307-006-525-101 qualifies as a direct substitute for the 307-006-532-101 based on the following critical parameters that determine functional compatibility:

  • Number of Positions: Both parts feature 6 positions
  • Gender: Both are female connectors
  • Pitch: Both maintain 0.156" (3.96mm) spacing
  • Card Type: Both are single edge, non-specified card type connectors
  • Contact Material & Finish: Both use gold-plated contacts with copper alloy base material
  • Operating Temperature Range: Both operate from -40°C to 105°C
  • Insulation Material: Both use polyester thermoplastic
  • Compliance: Both are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected

The primary distinction is that 307-006-525-101 is an active product with specified card thickness tolerance (0.054" to 0.070"), solder termination, and semi-bellows contact type, whereas 307-006-532-101 is obsolete with a fixed card thickness of 0.062".
