Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the 454365 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Position Count & Pitch: The substitute must maintain 95 positions at 0.079" (2.00mm) pitch to ensure mechanical and electrical compatibility with existing mating connectors and PCB layouts.

Connector Configuration: The substitute must be a receptacle with female sockets, matching the original connector gender and contact type.

Mounting & Termination: Board edge, through-hole, right-angle mounting with press-fit termination must be preserved to maintain compatibility with existing PCB designs and assembly processes.

Electrical Ratings: Current rating (1.5 A minimum) and voltage rating (500Vrms minimum) establish the baseline electrical performance requirements.

Environmental Compliance: RoHS compliance and moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1) are required for modern manufacturing and storage standards.

The identified substitute part 3-5352171-0 satisfies all these critical parameters while maintaining active product status.

Parameter Comparison

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 3-5352171-0 directly replace the 454365 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The 3-5352171-0 maintains identical mechanical and electrical interface specifications. PCB layouts, mating connector compatibility, and press-fit assembly processes require no modification.

Q: What is the primary reason for substitution?

A: The 454365 has reached obsolete product status. The 3-5352171-0 provides equivalent functionality with active production status and confirmed supply availability.

Q: Are there differences in contact finish or plating?

A: The 3-5352171-0 specifies gold contact finish at 30.0µin (0.76µm) thickness. The original 454365 contact finish specifications were not provided in available documentation.

Q: Does the substitute meet current compliance requirements?

A: Yes. The 3-5352171-0 is RoHS compliant and carries MSL 1 rating, meeting current manufacturing and environmental standards.

Q: Are both parts from the same manufacturer?

A: Both are manufactured by TE Connectivity. The 454365 is from the Erni product line, while the 3-5352171-0 is from the AMP Connectors product line within TE Connectivity.

Q: What is the pitch specification, and why is it critical?

A: Both connectors operate at 0.079" (2.00mm) pitch. This specification determines PCB trace spacing, mating connector compatibility, and signal integrity characteristics. Pitch equivalence is mandatory for direct substitution.

Q: Can the substitute handle the same electrical loads?

A: The 3-5352171-0 is rated for 1.5 A per contact and 500Vrms, establishing the electrical performance baseline for this connector class. Original 454365 electrical ratings were not specified in available documentation.
