Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the TE Connectivity 352345-1 are grouped based on the following substitution criteria:

Primary Substitution Parameters:

• Connector type: Receptacle, Female Sockets
• Number of positions: 125 (primary group) or 150 (extended ground variant)
• Pitch: 0.079" (2.00mm)
• Mounting configuration: Board Edge, Through Hole, Right Angle
• Termination method: Press-Fit
• Current rating: 1.5 A
• Operating temperature: -55°C to 125°C
• Contact finish: Gold plating

Grouping Logic:

Group 1 - Direct 125-Position Equivalents (Connector Style B 25): Parts HM2R02PA5100AALF, HM2R02PA5100N9LF, and HM2R02PA5108N9LF maintain identical position count, pitch, mounting type, and termination. These parts are manufactured by Amphenol ICC (FCI) under the Millipacs® series. Voltage rating increases to 750Vrms. HM2R02PA5108N9LF includes upper shield feature matching the main part.

Group 2 - Extended Position Variant (Connector Style AB 25): Parts HM2R65PA5100N9LF and HM2R65PA5108N9LF feature 150 total positions (125 signal + 25 ground), representing a different connector style (AB 25) with additional ground row. These parts maintain the same pitch, mounting type, and termination but are not direct position-for-position equivalents.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Direct Equivalents for 125-Position Applications:

For applications requiring direct replacement of the TE Connectivity 352345-1 with identical position count and connector style (B 25), the Amphenol ICC (FCI) Millipacs® series parts HM2R02PA5100AALF, HM2R02PA5100N9LF, and HM2R02PA5108N9LF are functionally equivalent. All three parts maintain the 125-position configuration, 2.00mm pitch, and press-fit termination.

Compliance Considerations:

The substitute parts HM2R02PA5100AALF, HM2R02PA5100N9LF, and HM2R02PA5108N9LF are RoHS Compliant and REACH Affected, whereas the main part 352345-1 is RoHS non-compliant with vendor-undefined REACH status. Applications subject to RoHS or REACH regulatory requirements should utilize the Amphenol ICC alternatives.

Shielding Feature Matching:

The TE Connectivity 352345-1 includes an upper shield feature. Among the direct 125-position equivalents, only HM2R02PA5108N9LF includes the upper shield feature. For applications where EMI shielding is specified, HM2R02PA5108N9LF provides functional equivalence with matching shielding.

Extended Ground Configuration:

Parts HM2R65PA5100N9LF and HM2R65PA5108N9LF feature 150 total positions (125 signal + 25 ground) with connector style AB 25. These parts are not direct position-for-position replacements but provide enhanced grounding capability. Selection of these parts requires PCB redesign to accommodate the additional ground row and different connector style.

Voltage Rating Enhancement:

All Amphenol ICC substitute parts feature 750Vrms voltage rating compared to the 500Vrms rating of the main part. This represents an increase in electrical capability and does not restrict substitution in applications rated for 500Vrms or lower.

Inventory Availability:

HM2R02PA5108N9LF offers the highest inventory availability at 10,300 units, followed by HM2R02PA5100N9LF at 2,024 units. These parts provide optimal supply chain flexibility for high-volume applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can HM2R02PA5100AALF, HM2R02PA5100N9LF, and HM2R02PA5108N9LF be used interchangeably with the TE Connectivity 352345-1?

A: Yes, for applications requiring 125-position receptacle connectors with 2.00mm pitch and press-fit termination. All three parts maintain identical position count, pitch, mounting configuration, and termination method. The primary differences are RoHS/REACH compliance status, shielding features, and packaging format. HM2R02PA5108N9LF includes upper shield matching the main part.

Q: What is the difference between the B 25 and AB 25 connector styles?

A: Connector style B 25 accommodates 125 signal positions in a 5-row configuration. Connector style AB 25 accommodates 125 signal positions plus 25 dedicated ground positions in a 5+1 row configuration. These are different mechanical interfaces and require different PCB layouts.

Q: Are the HM2R65 series parts (150-position) direct replacements for the 352345-1?

A: No. The HM2R65 series parts feature 150 total positions (125 signal + 25 ground) with connector style AB 25, compared to the 125-position B 25 configuration of the 352345-1. These parts require PCB redesign and are not pin-for-pin compatible.

Q: What does RoHS Compliant status mean for these connectors?

A: RoHS Compliant status indicates the part meets Restriction of Hazardous Substances regulations, restricting lead, cadmium, mercury, and other hazardous materials. The TE Connectivity 352345-1 is RoHS non-compliant. Applications subject to RoHS requirements must use the Amphenol ICC alternatives.

Q: Does the higher 750Vrms rating of substitute parts affect compatibility?

A: No. The 750Vrms rating of Amphenol ICC parts represents increased electrical capability. Applications rated for 500Vrms or lower operate safely with parts rated for 750Vrms. The higher rating does not restrict substitution.

Q: What is the significance of the upper shield feature?

A: The upper shield provides electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding. The TE Connectivity 352345-1 includes this feature. Among direct 125-position equivalents, only HM2R02PA5108N9LF includes upper shield. For applications requiring EMI shielding, this part provides matching functionality.

Q: How do packaging differences affect part selection?

A: The TE Connectivity 352345-1 packaging format is not specified in the provided data. All Amphenol ICC substitute parts are supplied in Tray packaging. Packaging format affects handling, storage, and assembly processes but does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility.

Q: Which substitute part offers the best inventory availability?

A: HM2R02PA5108N9LF provides the highest inventory at 10,300 units in stock. This part also includes the upper shield feature matching the main part and maintains RoHS Compliant status.

Q: Can I use HM2R02PA5100AALF if shielding is not required?

A: Yes. HM2R02PA5100AALF is functionally equivalent for applications not requiring EMI shielding. It maintains 125-position configuration, 2.00mm pitch, press-fit termination, and RoHS Compliant status. Inventory availability is 611 units.
