Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the Amphenol ICC 52601-G50-8 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Connector type (Header) and contact type (Male Pin)
• Position count (50) and row configuration (2 rows)
• Mating pitch and row spacing (0.100" / 2.54mm)
• Mounting method (Surface Mount)
• Shrouding configuration (Shrouded - 4 Wall)
• Fastening mechanism (Push-Pull)
• Termination method (Solder)
• Operating temperature range compatibility
• Flammability certification (UL94 V-0)

The 3M N2550-6V0C-RB-WG meets all these criteria and is listed as the manufacturer-recommended substitute.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 3M N2550-6V0C-RB-WG is the qualified substitute for the obsolete Amphenol ICC 52601-G50-8. Key considerations:

The substitute part maintains active product status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain stability. Both parts carry identical UL94 V-0 flammability certification and share equivalent electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical mating parameters.

The 3M part achieves RoHS compliance, whereas the original Amphenol part does not. This distinction is significant for applications subject to RoHS regulatory requirements.

Operating temperature range differs slightly: the substitute supports -55°C to 105°C versus the original -65°C to 105°C. Applications requiring operation below -55°C require evaluation against actual thermal requirements.

Both parts maintain MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity classification and share identical ECCN and HTSUS codes, indicating equivalent regulatory treatment.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 3M N2550-6V0C-RB-WG be used as a direct replacement for the Amphenol ICC 52601-G50-8?

A: Yes. Both parts meet identical specifications for connector type, position count, pitch, row configuration, mounting method, shrouding, fastening, and termination. All critical mating parameters are equivalent.

Q: What is the significance of the operating temperature range difference?

A: The substitute part operates from -55°C to 105°C, while the original operates from -65°C to 105°C. If your application requires operation below -55°C, verify that the lower temperature limit of the substitute meets your thermal requirements.

Q: Does the RoHS compliance difference affect substitution?

A: The 3M substitute is RoHS compliant while the original is not. For applications subject to RoHS directives, the substitute provides regulatory advantage. For applications without RoHS requirements, this difference does not affect functional compatibility.

Q: Are the contact finishes equivalent?

A: Both parts use gold mating contact finish at 30.0µin (0.76µm) thickness and tin post finish. The original specifies "Gold or Gold, GXT™" while the substitute specifies "Gold," representing equivalent electrical and mechanical performance.

Q: What is the packaging format for the substitute part?

A: The 3M N2550-6V0C-RB-WG is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) packaging format.

Q: Are moisture sensitivity levels equivalent?

A: Yes. Both parts carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) classification, indicating identical moisture handling and storage requirements.
