Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the TE Connectivity Erni 384312 is determined by the following critical parameters:

Primary Matching Criteria:

  • Connector type: Receptacle with female sockets
  • Number of positions: 120
  • Pitch specification: 0.098" (2.50mm)
  • Mounting configuration: Through hole, right angle orientation
  • Termination method: Press-fit

Secondary Compatibility Factors:

  • RoHS3 compliance status
  • Moisture sensitivity level classification
  • Backplane connector category designation

The substitute part TE Connectivity 2065657-1 satisfies all primary matching criteria while maintaining equivalent compliance certifications. This part operates within the same pitch and position specifications, enabling direct functional replacement in applications requiring 120-position backplane connectivity with through-hole, right-angle mounting.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The TE Connectivity 2065657-1 serves as the primary substitute for the obsolete TE Connectivity Erni 384312. Both connectors maintain ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 classification, ensuring equivalent environmental and regulatory compatibility.

The substitute part is classified as active product status, providing assured long-term availability and supply chain continuity. The Z-PACK HM-Zd series designation of the substitute indicates enhanced specifications including shielding and high-speed signal integrity features.

Key differences in physical configuration include row arrangement (8 rows × 10 columns versus 12 rows) and mounting interface (board edge mounting versus standard through-hole). These dimensional variations require mechanical design review to confirm fit within existing PCB layouts and connector housing assemblies.

The substitute part provides specified electrical performance parameters (0.600A current rating, 250V voltage rating, -65°C to 105°C operating range) not documented for the original part, offering enhanced performance characterization for system design validation.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 2065657-1 directly replace the 384312 in existing assemblies?

A: Both connectors share identical position count (120), pitch (0.098"), and press-fit termination. However, the row configuration differs (8×10 versus 12 rows), and the substitute features board edge mounting. Physical PCB layout compatibility must be confirmed before implementation.

Q: What is the significance of the product status difference?

A: The 384312 is classified as obsolete, indicating discontinued manufacturing and limited future availability. The 2065657-1 is active product, ensuring ongoing supply and manufacturing support for new designs and replacement requirements.

Q: Are compliance certifications equivalent between these parts?

A: Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity classification. REACH status is unaffected for both connectors, and both carry EAR99 ECCN designation.

Q: What additional electrical specifications does the substitute provide?

A: The 2065657-1 specifies 0.600A current rating, 250V voltage rating, and -65°C to 105°C operating temperature range. These parameters are not documented for the original 384312 part.

Q: Does the shielded feature of the substitute affect compatibility?

A: The 2065657-1 includes shielding and high-speed signal integrity features as part of the Z-PACK HM-Zd series design. This enhancement does not prevent substitution but may require PCB layout modifications to accommodate the shielding structure.

Q: What packaging differences exist between these parts?

A: The 384312 packaging specification is not provided. The 2065657-1 is supplied in tube packaging format.
