Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the 5-146264-1 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical Compatibility:

• Number of Positions: 2
• Number of Rows: 2
• Row Spacing - Mating: 0.100" (2.54mm)
• Current Rating: 3A
• Contact Type: Male Pin
• Contact Material: Copper Alloy

Mechanical Compatibility:

• Connector Type: Header, Breakaway
• Mounting Type: Through Hole
• Contact Length - Mating: 0.318" (8.08mm)
• Contact Length - Post: 0.125" (3.18mm)
• Overall Contact Length: 0.533" (13.55mm)
• Insulation Height: 0.090" (2.29mm)
• Contact Shape: Square

Environmental & Compliance:

• Operating Temperature: -65°C ~ 105°C
• Material Flammability Rating: UL94 V-0
• Insulation Material: Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP)
• RoHS Status: RoHS Compliant
