TE Connectivity AMP Connectors 641192-2 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors 641192-2 is a 2 Position Rectangular Receptacle Connector designed for IDC (Insulation Displacement Contact) termination with 26 AWG wire. This connector features gold-plated female socket contacts, a 0.100" pitch, and is part of the MTA-100 series. The part is classified as obsolete, making identification of active equivalent components necessary for ongoing procurement and system maintenance. Substitute parts must maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications to ensure direct interchangeability in existing applications.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of rectangular connectors in the MTA-100 series is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical Compatibility Parameters:

Contact type (Female Socket)
Number of positions (2)
Wire gauge rating (26 AWG)
Contact finish and thickness (Gold, 15.0µin)

Mechanical Compatibility Parameters:

Pitch spacing (0.100" / 2.54mm)
Number of rows (1)
Mounting configuration (Free Hanging, Right Angle)
Fastening type (Locking Ramp)
Cable termination method (IDC)
Closed end feature

Compliance Parameters:

RoHS3 compliance
Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL 1)

The substitute part 3-641192-2 maintains complete equivalence across all electrical, mechanical, and compliance parameters. The primary distinction is product status: the original 641192-2 is obsolete, while 3-641192-2 is active and available for procurement.
