Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the TE Connectivity Erni 364916 is determined by the following critical parameters:

Primary Substitution Criteria:

• Number of Positions: 138 positions (125 + 13 Ground)
• Pitch: 2mm (0.079")
• Termination Method: Press-Fit
• Connector Type: Receptacle with Female Sockets
• Mounting Configuration: Through Hole, Right Angle

The substitute part 3-5646547-0 from TE Connectivity AMP Connectors satisfies all primary substitution criteria. This part maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications while offering the advantage of Active product status, ensuring continued availability and manufacturing support.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For Obsolete Part Replacement:

The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors part number 3-5646547-0 is the direct substitute for the obsolete TE Connectivity Erni 364916. This substitution is supported by:

1. Identical Mechanical Compatibility: Both connectors maintain 138 positions at 2mm pitch with press-fit termination and right-angle through-hole mounting.

2. Active Product Status: The substitute part 3-5646547-0 is classified as Active, ensuring ongoing manufacturing availability and supply chain continuity.

3. Regulatory Compliance: The substitute part is RoHS Compliant and carries ECCN classification EAR99, meeting current environmental and export control requirements.

4. Enhanced Documentation: The substitute part provides complete electrical specifications (1.5A current rating, 500Vrms voltage rating) and thermal operating range (-55°C ~ 125°C), enabling comprehensive system design validation.

5. Moisture Sensitivity: MSL 1 rating indicates no moisture sensitivity limitations during storage and handling.

Selection Logic:

When the obsolete 364916 reaches end-of-inventory, transition to 3-5646547-0 without design modification. The connectors are mechanically and electrically interchangeable for backplane applications requiring 138-position, 2mm-pitch receptacle configurations.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 3-5646547-0 directly replace the 364916 without PCB redesign?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical mechanical specifications: 138 positions, 2mm pitch, press-fit termination, and right-angle through-hole mounting. No PCB layout changes are required.

Q: What is the primary reason for substitution?

A: The 364916 is classified as Obsolete and no longer manufactured. The 3-5646547-0 is an Active product from the same manufacturer (TE Connectivity), ensuring continued availability and support.

Q: Are there electrical performance differences between the two parts?

A: The 364916 specifications do not include electrical ratings in the provided documentation. The 3-5646547-0 specifies 1.5A current rating and 500Vrms voltage rating. These ratings apply to the connector's design capability and do not affect mechanical interchangeability.

Q: What is the packaging difference?

A: The 3-5646547-0 is supplied in Tube packaging. Verify packaging requirements for your procurement and assembly processes.

Q: Is the substitute part RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The 3-5646547-0 is RoHS Compliant, meeting current environmental regulations for electronic components.

Q: What is the moisture sensitivity level of the substitute?

A: The 3-5646547-0 carries MSL 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions during storage, handling, or assembly.

Q: Are both parts from the same manufacturer?

A: Both parts are manufactured by TE Connectivity. The 364916 is from the Erni division, while the 3-5646547-0 is from the AMP Connectors division. Both divisions operate under the TE Connectivity corporate structure.

Q: What is the inventory status for each part?

A: The 364916 has 733 pieces in stock (Obsolete status). The 3-5646547-0 has 1386 pieces in stock (Active status), providing greater supply availability for new orders.
