Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the TE Connectivity Erni 454366 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Number of Positions: 55
• Pitch: 0.079" (2.00mm)
• Connector Type: Receptacle, Female Sockets
• Termination Type: Press-Fit
• Mounting Type: Board Edge, Through Hole, Right Angle

The identified substitute part 3-5100161-0 (TE Connectivity AMP Connectors, Z-PACK series) satisfies all mandatory parameters. This part is classified as Active product status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity. The substitute maintains electrical and mechanical compatibility while offering enhanced compliance certifications and documented specifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For New Designs and Procurement: Select part number 3-5100161-0 for all new applications. This part is classified as Active product status with documented long-term availability. The substitute provides ROHS3 compliance and EAR99 export classification, meeting current regulatory requirements. Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited) indicates no special handling requirements during storage or assembly.

For Legacy System Maintenance: The original TE Connectivity Erni 454366 remains available with 794 units in current inventory. However, due to obsolete classification, procurement should transition to the substitute part 3-5100161-0 to ensure supply chain continuity beyond current stock depletion. Both parts maintain identical mechanical and electrical interface specifications for board edge, through-hole, right-angle mounting applications with 55-position, 2mm pitch receptacle configurations.

Compliance Considerations: Part 3-5100161-0 provides documented ROHS3 compliance and defined electrical ratings (1.5 A, 500Vrms), supporting modern system design requirements. The substitute part's active status ensures access to technical documentation, quality certifications, and manufacturer support.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can part 3-5100161-0 directly replace the obsolete 454366 in existing assemblies?

A: Yes. Both parts maintain identical specifications for number of positions (55), pitch (2.00mm), connector type (receptacle, female sockets), termination method (press-fit), and mounting configuration (board edge, through-hole, right angle). Physical and electrical interface compatibility is maintained.

Q: What is the primary advantage of transitioning to part 3-5100161-0?

A: The substitute part is classified as Active product status, ensuring documented long-term availability and supply chain continuity. The original 454366 is obsolete and subject to inventory depletion. Part 3-5100161-0 provides ROHS3 compliance and defined electrical performance specifications (1.5 A current rating, 500Vrms voltage rating).

Q: Are there packaging differences between the two parts?

A: The original 454366 packaging is not specified in available documentation. Part 3-5100161-0 is supplied in Tube packaging. Confirm packaging requirements with your procurement specification before ordering.

Q: Does the substitute part require different PCB design considerations?

A: No. Both parts use identical board edge, through-hole, right-angle mounting specifications. PCB footprint, hole sizing, and layout requirements remain unchanged. The 5-row configuration of part 3-5100161-0 aligns with the 55-position, 2mm pitch standard.

Q: What is the operating temperature range for the substitute part?

A: Part 3-5100161-0 operates across -55°C to 125°C. This range supports industrial and commercial applications. Confirm compatibility with your system's thermal requirements.

Q: Is the substitute part RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Part 3-5100161-0 is ROHS3 compliant, meeting current environmental and hazardous substance restrictions. The original 454366 RoHS status is not documented.
