Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution between the main part 536622-1 and the equivalent part 5536622-1 is based on the following criteria:

Core Compatibility Parameters:

• Identical connector type (Header, Male Blades)
• Identical connector style (Futurebus)
• Identical number of positions (8)
• Identical number of rows (4)
• Identical mounting type (Through Hole)
• Identical contact layout (8 Power)
• Identical voltage rating (30V)
• Identical contact finish material (Gold)
• Identical moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1)
• Identical series designation (Z-PACK)
• Identical product status (Active)

Differing Parameters: The substitute part 5536622-1 differs in termination method (Press-Fit versus Solder), contact finish thickness (Flash versus 30.0µin), color designation (Natural versus unspecified), material flammability rating (UL94 V-0 versus unspecified), operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C versus unspecified), RoHS compliance status (Compliant versus non-compliant), and packaging format (Tube versus unspecified).

These differences do not affect the electrical or mechanical interface compatibility for applications requiring an 8-position Futurebus header connector with through-hole mounting and 30V rating.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Part 536622-1 Selection Criteria: Select the main part 536622-1 when solder termination is required for PCB assembly processes. This part is suitable for applications where existing board designs specify solder attachment and where RoHS non-compliance is acceptable for the application.

Part 5536622-1 Selection Criteria: Select the substitute part 5536622-1 when press-fit termination is preferred for rapid assembly or rework operations. This part is required for applications mandating RoHS compliance. The specified operating temperature range of -55°C ~ 125°C and UL94 V-0 flammability rating provide additional environmental and safety certifications suitable for regulated applications.

Both parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical interface specifications for 8-position Futurebus header connectors with through-hole mounting. Selection between these parts depends on termination method requirements, regulatory compliance mandates, and environmental operating conditions rather than functional compatibility.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are parts 536622-1 and 5536622-1 electrically interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both parts are 8-position Futurebus header connectors with identical voltage ratings (30V), contact layouts (8 Power), and gold contact finishes. The electrical interface is identical.

Q: What is the primary difference between these two parts?

A: The primary difference is the termination method. Part 536622-1 uses solder termination, while part 5536622-1 uses press-fit termination. This affects assembly process requirements but not electrical performance.

Q: Does the contact finish thickness difference affect compatibility?

A: No. Both parts feature gold contact finishes. The difference in thickness specification (30.0µin versus Flash) does not affect the mechanical or electrical interface compatibility for standard Futurebus applications.

Q: Which part should be selected for new designs?

A: Part 5536622-1 is recommended for new designs due to its RoHS compliance status, specified operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C), and UL94 V-0 flammability rating. These specifications provide broader regulatory acceptance and documented environmental performance.

Q: Can part 5536622-1 be used as a direct replacement in existing assemblies designed for part 536622-1?

A: Mechanical and electrical compatibility is maintained. However, the press-fit termination method requires different assembly equipment and procedures compared to solder termination. PCB design modifications may be necessary to accommodate press-fit contact hole specifications.

Q: What does the Z-PACK series designation indicate?

A: Z-PACK is the series designation for this family of TE Connectivity AMP Connectors backplane connectors. Both parts belong to this series and share the same connector style and interface specifications.

Q: Are there any packaging differences between these parts?

A: Part 5536622-1 is specified with Tube packaging, while part 536622-1 packaging is not specified in the available data. Packaging format may affect ordering quantities and handling procedures but does not affect component functionality.

Q: What is the significance of the MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity level?

A: MSL 1 indicates the lowest moisture sensitivity classification. Both parts have unlimited shelf life under standard storage conditions and do not require special moisture control during storage or handling prior to assembly.
