TE Connectivity AMP Connectors 3-103336-8 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors 3-103336-8 is an active rectangular connector header designed for through-hole mounting applications. This unshrouded, 5-position connector operates within the AMPMODU Mod II series and supports board-to-board or cable interconnection with press-fit and solder termination options. The connector is RoHS compliant and rated for continuous operation across -55°C to 125°C temperature ranges with a 3A current capacity per contact.

Substitute parts are identified to provide alternative sourcing options when the primary part number becomes unavailable, when inventory constraints exist, or when design flexibility permits component interchange based on equivalent electrical and mechanical specifications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for rectangular connector headers is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Mating Interface Compatibility:

• Identical pitch specification (0.100" / 2.54mm)
• Matching number of positions (5)
• Single-row configuration
• Male pin contact type
• Gold-plated mating surface finish

Mechanical and Electrical Compatibility:

• Through-hole mounting capability
• Press-fit and solder termination support
• Minimum 3A current rating per contact
• Operating temperature range encompassing -55°C to 125°C
• Unshrouded header design
• Square contact geometry

Regulatory and Environmental Compliance:

• RoHS compliant status
• UL94 V-0 flammability rating
• Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 classification

The substitute part 93689-106-05LF (Amphenol ICC BERGSTIK® series) meets all critical mating interface parameters and regulatory requirements, enabling direct functional substitution in applications where the primary part is unavailable.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the TE Connectivity 3-103336-8 and Amphenol ICC 93689-106-05LF connectors are active products with confirmed RoHS compliance and UL94 V-0 flammability certification. Selection between these parts is based on the following engineering criteria:

Primary Part Selection (3-103336-8):

• Use when AMPMODU Mod II series specification is required by design documentation
• Preferred when existing inventory or supply chain relationships favor TE Connectivity sourcing
• Specified in designs requiring copper alloy contact material

Substitute Part Selection (93689-106-05LF):

• Use when TE Connectivity part availability is constrained
• Acceptable when BERGSTIK® series compatibility is permitted by design flexibility
• Suitable when phosphor bronze contact material meets application requirements
• Applicable when extended lower temperature operation (-65°C minimum) is beneficial
• Appropriate when breakaway connector functionality provides design advantage

Both parts satisfy identical mating interface requirements, electrical performance specifications, and regulatory compliance mandates. Physical dimensions of contact lengths and insulation heights differ between the two designs; however, these variations do not affect mating compatibility or electrical performance in standard board-to-board applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Amphenol ICC 93689-106-05LF directly replace the TE Connectivity 3-103336-8 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical mating pitch (0.100" / 2.54mm), position count (5), contact type (male pin), and termination methods (press-fit and solder). The mating interface is fully compatible. Physical differences in contact length and insulation height do not affect mating performance in standard through-hole applications.

Q: What are the differences in contact material between these two parts?

A: The TE Connectivity 3-103336-8 uses copper alloy contacts, while the Amphenol ICC 93689-106-05LF uses phosphor bronze contacts. Both materials support the specified 3A current rating and gold plating thickness (30.0µin / 0.76µm). Material selection does not affect electrical compatibility in standard applications.

Q: Does the breakaway feature of the Amphenol ICC part affect compatibility?

A: No. The breakaway feature is a design characteristic that allows individual positions to be separated if required. This feature does not impact mating compatibility or electrical performance when used in standard board-to-board configurations.

Q: Are there temperature range differences between these connectors?

A: The TE Connectivity part operates from -55°C to 125°C, while the Amphenol ICC part operates from -65°C to 125°C. Both ranges encompass standard industrial and commercial operating conditions. The Amphenol ICC part provides extended lower temperature capability.

Q: What is the difference in packaging between these parts?

A: The TE Connectivity 3-103336-8 is supplied in tray packaging, while the Amphenol ICC 93689-106-05LF is supplied in bag packaging. Packaging format does not affect connector performance or compatibility.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both the TE Connectivity 3-103336-8 and Amphenol ICC 93689-106-05LF are RoHS compliant and carry UL94 V-0 flammability certification. Both parts meet identical regulatory requirements.

Q: Can these connectors be used interchangeably in production?

A: Yes, provided design documentation permits substitution. Both connectors meet identical electrical specifications, mating interface requirements, and regulatory compliance standards. Substitution is appropriate when supply constraints or sourcing flexibility is required.
