Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the TE Connectivity Erni 354142 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Position and Pitch Compatibility: The substitute part must maintain 110 positions with a 0.079" (2.00mm) pitch to ensure mechanical and electrical compatibility with existing mating connectors and PCB layouts.

Connector Configuration: Both the main part and substitute must be receptacle connectors with female sockets, configured in 5 rows with A 22 connector style.

Mounting and Termination: Press-fit termination and through-hole right-angle mounting are mandatory for direct replacement in existing applications.

Shielding: The upper shield feature must be present in the substitute to maintain electromagnetic protection equivalent to the original design.

Compliance Standards: RoHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating ensure regulatory and environmental compatibility across substitution.

The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors 5352068-1 meets all these criteria and is designated as the manufacturer-recommended substitute.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors 5352068-1 is the appropriate substitute for the obsolete TE Connectivity Erni 354142. Both components share identical mechanical and electrical specifications across all critical parameters: 110 positions, 2.00mm pitch, 5-row configuration, A 22 connector style, press-fit termination, and upper shield design.

The substitute part offers the advantage of active product status, ensuring continued availability and supply chain support. Both components maintain ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating, confirming regulatory equivalence. The substitute is packaged in tube format and carries a base product number of 5352068, providing clear traceability within the TE Connectivity AMP Connectors product line.

Selection of the 5352068-1 substitute eliminates obsolescence risk while maintaining full compatibility with existing mating connectors, PCB layouts, and system designs originally specified for the 354142.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the TE Connectivity AMP 5352068-1 be used as a direct replacement for the TE Connectivity Erni 354142?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical specifications for position count (110), pitch (2.00mm), row configuration (5), connector style (A 22), mounting type (through-hole right angle), termination method (press-fit), and shielding (upper shield). Mechanical and electrical compatibility is complete.

Q: What is the primary reason for substituting the 354142?

A: The TE Connectivity Erni 354142 is classified as obsolete. The TE Connectivity AMP 5352068-1 is an active product with equivalent specifications, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity.

Q: Are there compliance differences between the two parts?

A: No. Both the 354142 and 5352068-1 are ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1 rating. Both carry EAR99 ECCN classification and 8536.69.4040 HTSUS code, confirming regulatory equivalence.

Q: What packaging format is used for the substitute part?

A: The TE Connectivity AMP 5352068-1 is supplied in tube packaging, as specified in the product data.

Q: Does the substitute part provide additional electrical specifications?
