Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 5175472-6 connector is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters: connector type (plug), position count (50), row configuration (2), mounting orientation (through hole right angle), termination method (solder), connector style (center strip contacts), board to board high-density classification, board lock feature presence, gold contact finish, and CHAMP .050 I series membership.

The substitute parts 3-5175472-6 and 5-5175472-6 maintain complete functional and mechanical compatibility with the original 5175472-6 specification. These alternatives differ only in packaging configuration and product status, with both substitutes carrying active product status compared to the obsolete main part. The substitutes are derived from the same base product number 5175472, confirming design equivalence.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both substitute parts 3-5175472-6 and 5-5175472-6 provide direct functional equivalence to the obsolete 5175472-6 connector. Selection between the two active alternatives is determined by packaging requirements and supply chain considerations rather than electrical or mechanical performance differences.

3-5175472-6 (Bulk Packaging): This substitute carries active product status and bulk packaging configuration. It is suitable for high-volume production environments and applications requiring flexible quantity management. Current inventory availability is 1073 pieces.

5-5175472-6 (Tray Packaging): This substitute carries active product status and tray packaging configuration. It is suitable for standard production workflows and automated assembly processes. Current inventory availability is 1025 pieces.

Both substitutes maintain full RoHS compliance and identical electrical specifications. The contact finish thickness differs between the main part (8.00µin) and the 5-5175472-6 substitute (30.0µin), while 3-5175472-6 matches the original thickness specification. This contact finish thickness variation does not affect functional compatibility or performance in standard applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 3-5175472-6 and 5-5175472-6 be used interchangeably with 5175472-6?

A: Yes. Both substitute parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters including connector type, position count, mounting configuration, termination method, and series designation. The substitutes differ only in packaging format and product status.

Q: What is the difference between the bulk and tray packaging options?

A: 3-5175472-6 is supplied in bulk packaging, while 5-5175472-6 is supplied in tray packaging. Bulk packaging provides flexibility for custom quantity management, whereas tray packaging is optimized for standard production workflows and automated assembly equipment.

Q: Does the contact finish thickness difference between parts affect compatibility?

A: The contact finish thickness variation (8.00µin for 5175472-6 and 3-5175472-6 versus 30.0µin for 5-5175472-6) does not affect functional compatibility or electrical performance. All parts maintain gold contact finish and equivalent contact resistance characteristics.

Q: Are both substitute parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both 3-5175472-6 and 5-5175472-6 are RoHS compliant. The main part carries ROHS3 compliance designation, while both substitutes carry RoHS compliance designation.

Q: What is the moisture sensitivity level for these connectors?

A: All three parts, including the main part and both substitutes, carry Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions for storage or handling.

Q: Why is the original 5175472-6 marked as obsolete?

A: The original part carries obsolete product status. The active substitute parts 3-5175472-6 and 5-5175472-6 provide continued availability and support for applications requiring this connector specification.
