Engineering Selection Recommendations

TE Connectivity 5499141-1 (Direct Substitute)

The 5499141-1 is a direct electrical and mechanical equivalent to 499141-1, differing only in packaging format (Tray vs. Bulk) and post-contact finish composition (Tin vs. Tin-Lead). Both parts are manufactured by TE Connectivity within the AMP-Latch series and maintain identical electrical ratings, operating temperature range, and mechanical dimensions. The 5499141-1 carries ROHS3 compliance certification, whereas the 499141-1 is not applicable for RoHS designation. Selection of 5499141-1 is appropriate for applications requiring RoHS3 compliance or when tray packaging is preferred for automated assembly processes.

3M N3793-5303RB (Functional Equivalent)

The N3793-5303RB is a functional equivalent manufactured by 3M within the 3000 series. This connector maintains all critical mechanical and electrical parameters including 10-position, 2-row configuration at 0.100" pitch, through-hole right-angle mounting, and 4-wall shrouding. The N3793-5303RB provides higher current capacity (1.75A per contact vs. 1A) and operates across a slightly narrower temperature range (-55°C to 105°C vs. -65°C to 105°C). Contact material differs (Copper Alloy vs. Brass), and voltage rating is not specified. The N3793-5303RB carries RoHS compliance certification. Selection is appropriate when higher current capacity is required or when 3M connector ecosystem integration is preferred.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 5499141-1 be used as a direct replacement for 499141-1?

A: Yes. The 5499141-1 is electrically and mechanically equivalent to 499141-1. Both connectors share identical pitch (0.100"), position count (10), row configuration (2), mounting type (through-hole right-angle), shrouding (4-wall), and electrical ratings (1A per contact, 250VAC). The primary differences are packaging format (Tray vs. Bulk) and post-contact finish (Tin vs. Tin-Lead). RoHS3 compliance is available with 5499141-1.

Q: Is the 3M N3793-5303RB compatible with 499141-1 applications?

A: The N3793-5303RB is mechanically and functionally compatible with 499141-1 for applications requiring the specified electrical parameters. Both connectors maintain 0.100" pitch, 10-position, 2-row configuration, and through-hole right-angle mounting. The N3793-5303RB provides higher current capacity (1.75A vs. 1A per contact) and operates at -55°C to 105°C (vs. -65°C to 105°C). Voltage rating for the N3793-5303RB is not specified. Compatibility depends on application-specific current and temperature requirements.

Q: What are the key differences between 499141-1 and 5499141-1?

A: The 499141-1 and 5499141-1 differ in three aspects: packaging (Bulk vs. Tray), post-contact finish (Tin-Lead vs. Tin), and RoHS compliance status (Not applicable vs. ROHS3 Compliant). All electrical ratings, mechanical dimensions, operating temperature range, and connector configuration remain identical.

Q: Does packaging format affect electrical performance?

A: No. Packaging format (Bulk vs. Tray) does not affect electrical performance or mechanical compatibility. Packaging selection is determined by assembly process requirements and inventory management practices.

Q: What is the operating temperature difference between 499141-1 and N3793-5303RB?

A: The 499141-1 operates across -65°C to 105°C, while the N3793-5303RB operates across -55°C to 105°C. The N3793-5303RB has a 10°C higher minimum operating temperature. Applications requiring operation below -55°C must use 499141-1 or 5499141-1.

Q: Can N3793-5303RB handle higher current than 499141-1?

A: Yes. The N3793-5303RB is rated for 1.75A per contact, compared to 1A per contact for 499141-1. Applications requiring current capacity above 1A per contact can utilize the N3793-5303RB.

Q: Are all three connectors RoHS compliant?

A: The 5499141-1 is ROHS3 Compliant. The N3793-5303RB is RoHS Compliant. The 499141-1 has RoHS status listed as Not applicable. RoHS compliance requirements should be verified against specific application and regional regulations.
