Engineering Selection Recommendations
Primary Recommendation: TE Connectivity 5536514-2
The 5536514-2 is the direct equivalent replacement for the obsolete 536514-2. Both parts are manufactured by TE Connectivity AMP Connectors and share identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The 5536514-2 is currently in active production status with RoHS compliance, addressing the regulatory requirements of modern supply chains while maintaining full functional compatibility with the original design.
Secondary Recommendations: Amphenol ICC (FCI) Metral® Series
The Amphenol ICC (FCI) backplane connector headers from the Metral® series provide functionally equivalent substitutes across all critical parameters. The 70298 series variants (70298-1102LF, 70298-1103LF, 70298-1104LF, 70298-1105LF, 70298-1115LF, 70298-1116LF) and 70233-115LF are all active products with RoHS compliance. These parts maintain the 48-position, 2.00mm pitch configuration with 4-row through-hole press-fit termination and UL94 V-0 flammability rating across the full -55°C to 125°C operating temperature range.
Compliance Considerations:
The 5536514-2 and Amphenol ICC Metral® series parts with LF designation (70233-115LF, 70298-1102LF through 70298-1116LF, 58355-130LF) are RoHS compliant, making them suitable for applications subject to RoHS regulations. The 70233-516 variant is RoHS non-compliant and should be selected only when legacy non-compliant designs are required.
Inventory Availability:
All recommended substitute parts maintain active inventory status with quantities ranging from 821 to 2423 pieces in stock, ensuring supply chain continuity for production and repair applications.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Can the 5536514-2 be used as a direct replacement for the 536514-2?
A: Yes. The 5536514-2 is a direct equivalent with identical connector specifications, electrical ratings, and mechanical dimensions. The primary differences are product status (Active vs. Obsolete) and RoHS compliance (Compliant vs. non-compliant). The 5536514-2 is the recommended replacement for new designs and ongoing production.
Q: What are the key parameters that determine if an Amphenol ICC part can substitute for the TE Connectivity 536514-2?
A: Substitution is determined by matching: 48 positions, 0.079" (2.00mm) pitch, 4-row configuration, through-hole mounting, press-fit termination, gold contact finish, -55°C to 125°C operating temperature range, and UL94 V-0 flammability rating. All listed Amphenol ICC parts meet these criteria.
Q: Are there differences in current rating between the main part and substitutes?
A: The original 536514-2 does not specify a current rating. Amphenol ICC substitute parts specify 1A to 1.5A current ratings. These ratings do not affect mechanical or electrical compatibility for standard backplane applications.
Q: What is the difference between the 70298 series variants?
A: All 70298 series variants (70298-1102LF, 70298-1103LF, 70298-1104LF, 70298-1105LF, 70298-1115LF, 70298-1116LF) share identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Variant designations reflect internal product differentiation within the Amphenol ICC manufacturing process. All are functionally equivalent for substitution purposes.
Q: Does the packaging format affect compatibility?
A: Packaging format (Tube) does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility. Packaging is a logistics consideration for handling, storage, and distribution. All listed parts are supplied in tube packaging suitable for standard component handling procedures.
Q: Is the 70233-516 suitable as a substitute?
A: The 70233-516 meets all mechanical and electrical specifications and is functionally equivalent. However, it is RoHS non-compliant. Select this part only when legacy non-compliant designs are required or when RoHS compliance is not a regulatory requirement.
Q: What is the significance of the "LF" designation in part numbers?
A: The "LF" designation indicates lead-free termination, which is associated with RoHS compliance. Parts with LF designation (70233-115LF, 70298-1102LF through 70298-1116LF, 58355-130LF) are RoHS compliant and suitable for applications subject to RoHS regulations.
Q: Can the 58355-130LF be used interchangeably with the 70298 series?
A: Yes. The 58355-130LF meets all critical substitution parameters and is functionally equivalent to the 70298 series variants. Selection between these parts should be based on availability, lead time, and internal design qualification requirements.
Q: What is the operating temperature range for all substitute parts?
A: All substitute parts operate across the -55°C to 125°C temperature range, matching the original 536514-2 specification. This ensures thermal compatibility across all environmental conditions.
Q: Are there any voltage rating differences between substitutes?
A: The original 536514-2 specifies a 30V voltage rating. Most Amphenol ICC substitutes do not specify a voltage rating in the provided data. For applications requiring explicit voltage specification, the 5536514-2 maintains the 30V rating of the original part.
