Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Selection: TE Connectivity 322-HCS5P2-320

The TE Connectivity 322-HCS5P2-320 is the recommended primary component for new designs and applications requiring RoHS compliance. This part maintains Active product status with full RoHS Compliant certification, ensuring regulatory alignment for current and future manufacturing requirements. The beryllium copper contact material with gold plating provides reliable electrical performance across the -55°C to 125°C operating range.

Substitute Consideration: Mill-Max 110-99-320-41-001000

The Mill-Max 110-99-320-41-001000 shares equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters, including identical operating temperature range, solder termination capability, and beryllium copper mating contact material. However, this substitute part carries RoHS Non-Compliant status, which restricts its use in applications subject to RoHS regulatory requirements. Selection of this substitute is limited to legacy systems, non-regulated applications, or situations where RoHS compliance is not mandated.

Compliance Consideration:

Applications requiring RoHS compliance must utilize the TE Connectivity 322-HCS5P2-320. The Mill-Max substitute is suitable only for applications explicitly exempted from RoHS requirements or for replacement in existing non-compliant systems.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What determines whether the Mill-Max 110-99-320-41-001000 can substitute for the TE Connectivity 322-HCS5P2-320?

A: Substitution is determined by alignment of electrical parameters (operating temperature, termination type, contact material), mechanical parameters (pitch, pin acceptance specifications), and regulatory compliance. Both parts share compatible electrical and mechanical characteristics. However, the RoHS compliance difference restricts substitution to non-regulated applications.

Q: Are there differences in contact finish between the main part and substitute?

A: Yes. The TE Connectivity 322-HCS5P2-320 features gold contact finish (24.8µin / 0.63µm thickness). The Mill-Max 110-99-320-41-001000 uses tin-lead contact finish (200.0µin / 5.08µm thickness on both mating and post surfaces). These finishes provide different electrical and corrosion resistance characteristics.

Q: Can the Mill-Max part be used in RoHS-regulated applications?

A: No. The Mill-Max 110-99-320-41-001000 is RoHS Non-Compliant and cannot be used in applications subject to RoHS regulatory requirements. The TE Connectivity 322-HCS5P2-320 is RoHS Compliant and is the appropriate selection for regulated applications.

Q: What is the significance of the 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch specification?

A: The 0.100" pitch is the standard spacing between mating contacts and termination posts. Both the main part and substitute maintain this pitch, ensuring mechanical compatibility with circuit board layouts and mating components designed for this standard spacing.

Q: How do the insertion force specifications compare?

A: The TE Connectivity 322-HCS5P2-320 specifies an insertion force of 0.89N. This parameter is not provided for the Mill-Max substitute part, limiting direct comparison of mating force characteristics.

Q: Are both parts suitable for the same operating temperature range?

A: Yes. Both the TE Connectivity 322-HCS5P2-320 and Mill-Max 110-99-320-41-001000 operate across the -55°C to 125°C temperature range, ensuring thermal compatibility in equivalent applications.

Q: What packaging differences exist between these parts?

A: The TE Connectivity 322-HCS5P2-320 is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging, while the Mill-Max 110-99-320-41-001000 is supplied in Tube packaging. Packaging selection may affect procurement, handling, and automated assembly processes.
