Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the obsolete 641126-6 is based on strict electrical and mechanical parameter equivalence within the MTA-100 series. The substitute part 3-641126-6 maintains identical specifications across all critical functional parameters: connector type, number of positions, pitch, mounting method, contact configuration, voltage rating, temperature range, and material compliance certifications.

The substitution logic is determined by the following key parameters:

• Connector Type: Header (male pin contact)
• Number of Positions: 6
• Pitch - Mating: 0.100" (2.54mm)
• Mounting Type: Through Hole
• Shrouding: Shrouded - 1 Wall
• Contact Finish - Mating: Gold
• Contact Finish - Post: Tin
• Voltage Rating: 250VAC
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C ~ 105°C
• Material Flammability Rating: UL94 V-0
• RoHS Compliance Status

The substitute part differs only in product status (active versus obsolete) and packaging configuration, with no functional or electrical performance differences.
