Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The substitute part 5650118-1 (TE Connectivity AMP Connectors) qualifies as an equivalent based on the following alignment of critical parameters:

Position Count & Pitch: Both parts maintain 30 positions at 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch
Dual Edge Configuration: Both feature dual edge, 2-row arrangement with matching card thickness tolerance (0.054" ~ 0.070")
Contact System: Both employ gold-plated contacts with solder termination and through-hole right-angle mounting
Insulation Material: Both use polyester-based thermoplastic insulation
Compliance: Both achieve ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status
Electrical Classification: Both classified under HTSUS 8536.69.4040 and ECCN EAR99

Substitution is valid where the connector footprint, PCB layout, and mating interface remain unchanged between the original and substitute part.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the 395-030-558-201 and 5650118-1 maintain active product status with full ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected certification. Selection between these parts is determined by application-specific requirements:

The 395-030-558-201 operates across -40°C to 105°C, providing extended high-temperature performance suitable for industrial and automotive environments. The 5650118-1 operates across -55°C to 85°C, extending low-temperature capability for aerospace and cold-environment applications.

Contact finish thickness differs between parts: the 395-030-558-201 specifies 10.0µin (0.25µm) gold plating, while the 5650118-1 provides 30.0µin (0.76µm). The thicker plating on the TE Connectivity part offers enhanced wear resistance in high-cycle mating applications.

Insulation material composition varies: the Mercury part uses polyester thermoplastic, while the TE Connectivity part uses glass-filled polyester, providing improved mechanical rigidity and thermal stability in the substitute.

Both parts share identical electrical footprint, pitch, position count, and mounting configuration, enabling direct PCB layout compatibility.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 5650118-1 directly replace 395-030-558-201 on existing PCBs?

A: Yes. Both connectors maintain identical 30-position, 0.100" pitch dual-edge configuration with matching card thickness tolerance (0.054" ~ 0.070") and through-hole right-angle solder termination. PCB footprints are compatible without modification.

Q: What are the temperature operating range differences?

A: The 395-030-558-201 operates -40°C to 105°C, while the 5650118-1 operates -55°C to 85°C. Selection depends on application temperature extremes. The Mercury part supports higher maximum temperature; the TE Connectivity part supports lower minimum temperature.

Q: How do contact materials differ between these parts?

A: The 395-030-558-201 uses copper alloy contacts; the 5650118-1 uses phosphor bronze contacts. Both are gold-plated. Phosphor bronze provides superior spring characteristics and fatigue resistance in high-cycle applications.

Q: What is the significance of contact finish thickness?

A: The 395-030-558-201 specifies 10.0µin (0.25µm) gold plating; the 5650118-1 specifies 30.0µin (0.76µm). Thicker plating extends contact life in applications with frequent mating cycles and provides enhanced corrosion protection.

Q: Are both parts RoHS and REACH compliant?

A: Yes. Both the 395-030-558-201 and 5650118-1 are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current environmental and hazardous substance regulations.

Q: What packaging differences exist?

A: The 395-030-558-201 ships in box packaging; the 5650118-1 ships in tray packaging. This affects handling, storage, and automated assembly compatibility but does not impact electrical or mechanical performance.
