Engineering Selection Recommendations

Direct Replacement: The TE Connectivity 5223002-2 is the recommended direct replacement for the obsolete 5223081-2. Both parts share identical electrical and mechanical specifications, including 60-position configuration, 0.079" pitch, 5-row layout, press-fit termination, and gold contact finish. The 5223002-2 maintains active product status and carries ROHS3 compliance, ensuring long-term availability and regulatory alignment.

Alternative Selection from Amphenol ICC (FCI): When TE Connectivity 5223002-2 is unavailable, Amphenol ICC (FCI) Metral® series connectors provide functional alternatives. The 85853-1136LF and 85853-1139LF are 60-position headers with matching pitch, row configuration, and operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C). These parts maintain identical mechanical mounting and termination characteristics.

The Metral® 1000 series (84817-102001LF, 84817-102002LF, 84817-102026LF, 84817-102028LF, 84817-502001LF) offers 72-position configurations with 60 signal positions and 12 ground positions. These connectors share the same pitch, row count, and mounting specifications but operate within a reduced temperature range (-55°C to 105°C). Selection of these alternatives requires confirmation that the application does not exceed 105°C operating conditions.

All substitute parts carry RoHS compliance and MSL 1 rating, meeting regulatory and environmental requirements equivalent to the main part.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 5223002-2 be used as a direct replacement for the 5223081-2?

A: Yes. The 5223002-2 is a direct equivalent with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Both connectors feature 60 positions, 0.079" pitch, 5-row configuration, through-hole mounting, press-fit termination, and gold contact finish. The primary difference is product status: 5223002-2 is active while 5223081-2 is obsolete.

Q: What is the difference between the 60-position and 72-position Amphenol ICC (FCI) alternatives?

A: The 85853-1136LF and 85853-1139LF are true 60-position connectors matching the main part exactly. The Metral® 1000 series (84817 variants) are 72-position connectors with 60 signal positions and 12 ground positions. Both configurations share the same 0.079" pitch and 5-row layout. Selection depends on PCB layout requirements and whether the additional ground positions are beneficial or problematic for the application.

Q: Are there temperature limitations when using Amphenol ICC (FCI) alternatives?

A: The Metral® 1000 series (84817 variants) and Metral® series (85853 variants) have different temperature ratings. The 84817 series operates from -55°C to 105°C, while the 85853 series operates from -55°C to 125°C, matching the main part. Applications requiring operation above 105°C must use the 5223002-2 or 85853 series alternatives.

Q: What packaging options are available?

A: The 5223002-2 is supplied in tube packaging. Amphenol ICC (FCI) alternatives (84817 and 85853 series) are also supplied in tube packaging. Packaging format does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The 5223002-2 carries ROHS3 compliance. All Amphenol ICC (FCI) alternatives (84817 and 85853 series) carry RoHS compliance. All parts meet regulatory requirements for lead-free and restricted substance compliance.

Q: What is the significance of the contact finish thickness differences?

A: The main part 5223081-2 does not specify contact finish thickness. Amphenol ICC (FCI) alternatives specify 30.0µin (0.76µm) or 50.0µin (1.27µm) gold thickness. These variations do not affect functional compatibility; both thicknesses provide adequate contact durability and electrical performance for the specified voltage and current ratings.

Q: Can the 84817-502001LF with GXT™ contact finish be used interchangeably with standard gold-plated alternatives?

A: Yes. The 84817-502001LF offers gold or gold GXT™ contact finish options. GXT™ is an enhanced gold plating technology that provides improved durability and contact reliability. This part is functionally compatible with all other alternatives listed and may be selected when enhanced contact performance is desired.

Q: What is the current rating for these connectors?

A: The main part 5223081-2 does not specify a current rating. The TE Connectivity 5223002-2 also does not specify a current rating. Amphenol ICC (FCI) alternatives (84817 and 85853 series) are rated for 1A per contact. Applications requiring higher current capacity must be evaluated against the specific design requirements.
