Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 536035-5 is determined by the following critical parameters: 96-position count, 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch, 3-row configuration, male pin connector type, through-hole mounting, solder termination, gold contact finish, and UL94 V-0 flammability rating. All substitute parts must match these core electrical and mechanical specifications to ensure direct compatibility in backplane applications.

The substitute parts are grouped into two categories:

Category 1: TE Connectivity AMP Connectors (Direct Series Equivalents) Parts 5650908-5, 650908-5, and 5650934-5 are TE Connectivity products within the Eurocard series. These parts maintain identical position count, pitch, row configuration, connector type, mounting method, and termination. Differences exist in product status, RoHS compliance, and insulation material composition.

Category 2: Cross-Manufacturer Alternative Part PCN10-96P-2.54DSA(72) from Hirose Electric Co Ltd is a 96-position DIN header connector that matches the core electrical parameters but differs in connector style (header versus plug) and operating temperature range. This part represents a functional alternative for applications where header-style connectors are acceptable.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Substitutes (TE Connectivity Eurocard Series)

Parts 5650908-5 and 650908-5 are direct functional equivalents to the 536035-5. Both maintain all critical electrical and mechanical parameters with all 96 positions loaded. Part 5650908-5 is recommended as the primary substitute due to its active product status and RoHS compliance. Part 650908-5 is functionally equivalent but carries RoHS non-compliant status and REACH-affected designation, making it suitable only for applications without regulatory compliance requirements.

Secondary Substitute (Partial Loading)

Part 5650934-5 is electrically and mechanically compatible but differs in that only 64 of the 96 positions are loaded. This part is suitable for applications where the full 96-position capacity is not required, provided the connector footprint and mechanical mounting remain compatible with the original design.

Cross-Manufacturer Alternative

Part PCN10-96P-2.54DSA(72) from Hirose Electric Co Ltd provides a functional alternative for applications where connector style flexibility exists. This part differs in connector type (header versus plug) and operates at a reduced maximum temperature of 85°C compared to the 125°C rating of the TE Connectivity parts. Selection of this part requires confirmation that the header-style interface is compatible with the mating receptacle and that the lower operating temperature range meets application requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 5650908-5 be used as a direct replacement for the 536035-5?

A: Yes. The 5650908-5 maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications including 96 positions, 0.100" pitch, 3-row configuration, male pin type, through-hole mounting, solder termination, and gold contact finish. The primary difference is product status (active versus obsolete) and RoHS compliance. The 5650908-5 is suitable for direct substitution in new designs and maintenance applications.

Q: What is the significance of the 5650934-5 having only 64 positions loaded?

A: The 5650934-5 has 96 total positions but only 64 are populated with contacts. This part is mechanically and electrically compatible with the 536035-5 footprint but provides reduced contact density. Selection of this part requires confirmation that the application does not require all 96 contact positions and that the connector mounting and mating interface remain compatible.

Q: Why does the PCN10-96P-2.54DSA(72) have a lower operating temperature range?

A: The PCN10-96P-2.54DSA(72) operates from -55°C to 85°C, compared to -55°C to 125°C for the TE Connectivity parts. This difference is inherent to the Hirose design and material composition. Applications requiring operation above 85°C must use TE Connectivity parts. The Hirose connector is suitable only for applications with maximum operating temperatures at or below 85°C.

Q: What is the difference between a plug and header connector style?

A: The 536035-5 is a plug connector with male pins that mate with a receptacle socket. The PCN10-96P-2.54DSA(72) is a header connector with male pins that mate with a female socket connector. While both have male pins, the physical form factor and mating interface differ. Substitution with the Hirose header requires confirmation that the mating receptacle is compatible with the header-style interface.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS compliant?

A: No. The 5650908-5 and 5650934-5 are RoHS compliant. The 650908-5 is RoHS non-compliant. The PCN10-96P-2.54DSA(72) is ROHS3 compliant. Selection must account for regulatory requirements in the target application and market.

Q: What packaging options are available for substitute parts?

A: The TE Connectivity parts 5650908-5, 5650934-5, and 650908-5 are supplied in bulk packaging. The Hirose part PCN10-96P-2.54DSA(72) is supplied in tray packaging. Packaging selection may affect handling, storage, and integration into manufacturing processes.
