Engineering Selection Recommendations

The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors 5535091-5 is the direct functional equivalent for the obsolete 454716. Selection of this substitute is based on the following engineering criteria:

Electrical and Mechanical Equivalence: The 5535091-5 maintains identical specifications across all critical parameters including connector type, position count, contact finish, pitch, row configuration, mounting method, and termination approach. The connector operates within the same temperature range and meets the same flammability standards.

Product Status and Availability: The 5535091-5 holds active product status with confirmed inventory availability, ensuring reliable sourcing for current and future production requirements. The obsolete status of the 454716 eliminates it as a viable option for new designs or ongoing procurement.

Regulatory Compliance: The 5535091-5 is RoHS compliant, providing enhanced environmental compliance compared to the original part specification. This compliance status supports modern manufacturing and supply chain requirements.

Series Classification: The 5535091-5 is designated within the Eurocard series, establishing its position within a standardized connector family suitable for backplane applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 5535091-5 be used as a direct replacement for the 454716 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The 5535091-5 is electrically and mechanically equivalent to the 454716 across all specified parameters. Both connectors feature 48 positions, 0.100" pitch, 3-row configuration, gold contact finish, through-hole mounting, and solder termination. Operating temperature ranges and flammability ratings are identical.

Q: What is the pitch specification for these connectors?

A: Both the 454716 and 5535091-5 feature a 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch, which defines the center-to-center spacing between adjacent contact positions.

Q: Are there packaging differences between the obsolete and substitute parts?

A: The 454716 packaging specification was not provided in the original documentation. The 5535091-5 is supplied in bulk packaging. Confirm packaging requirements with your procurement specifications.

Q: Does the 5535091-5 meet RoHS compliance requirements?

A: Yes. The 5535091-5 is RoHS compliant, meeting current environmental and regulatory standards for electronic component manufacturing and distribution.

Q: What is the moisture sensitivity level for the 5535091-5?

A: The 5535091-5 has a moisture sensitivity level (MSL) of 1, indicating unlimited shelf life without special moisture control measures during storage and handling.

Q: Are there additional substitute options beyond the 5535091-5?

A: The 5535091-5 is the manufacturer-recommended substitute for the 454716. The 5535091-5 itself has documented secondary substitutes including PCN10-48S-2.54DSA(72), 86093488314765V1LF, 86093488324755V1LF, 86093488314H55V1LF, and 86093488314755V1LF. Consult with TE Connectivity for guidance on these secondary alternatives.

Q: What is the connector style designation C/2 (1/2 C)?

A: The C/2 (1/2 C) designation indicates a half-size DIN connector configuration, which is a standardized form factor for backplane and industrial applications.
