Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the 641415-1 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Number of Positions: 18
• Pitch: 0.220" (5.59mm)
• Number of Rows: 3
• Row Spacing: 0.200" (5.08mm)
• Contact Type: Female Socket
• Mounting Type: Free Hanging (In-Line)
• Contact Termination: Crimp
• Fastening Type: Latch Lock
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)

The substitute part 770199-1 satisfies all mandatory matching parameters. The primary distinction between the main part and the substitute is the connector type designation (housing versus plug housing) and color variation (natural versus black). Both parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical interface specifications, enabling direct functional substitution in applications where the 641415-1 is specified.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 770199-1 serves as the active equivalent for the obsolete 641415-1. Selection of the 770199-1 is supported by the following engineering considerations:

Both parts share identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8536.69.8000) classifications, confirming equivalent trade and export compliance status.

Electrical and Mechanical Compatibility: The 770199-1 maintains complete equivalence across all critical interface parameters, including position count, pitch spacing, row configuration, contact type, termination method, and fastening mechanism. These parameters determine functional interchangeability within connector assemblies.

Inventory Availability: The 770199-1 is currently available in production quantities (719 Pcs New Original In Stock), supporting immediate procurement for design transitions and production requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 770199-1 directly replace the 641415-1 in existing designs?

A: The 770199-1 provides direct functional replacement for the 641415-1. Both parts share identical electrical and mechanical interface specifications across all critical parameters: 18 positions, 0.220" (5.59mm) pitch, 3-row configuration, female socket contacts, crimp termination, and latch lock fastening. The color difference (black versus natural) and connector type designation do not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility.

Q: What is the significance of the product status difference between these parts?

A: The 641415-1 is classified as obsolete, indicating TE Connectivity AMP Connectors no longer manufactures or supports this part. The 770199-1 maintains active product status, ensuring continued availability, technical support, and compliance with current manufacturing standards. For new designs and ongoing production, the 770199-1 is the appropriate selection.

Q: Are there compliance differences between the 641415-1 and 770199-1?

A: The 770199-1 carries RoHS Compliant certification, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements. Both parts share identical ECCN and HTSUS classifications. The 770199-1 is the compliant choice for applications subject to RoHS requirements.

Q: Does the color difference between natural and black affect connector performance?

A: Color is a cosmetic specification that does not affect electrical performance, mechanical fit, or functional operation. Selection between natural and black should be based on application-specific requirements such as visual identification, environmental exposure, or design aesthetics.

Q: What is the Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) significance for these connectors?

A: Both the 641415-1 and 770199-1 carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) classification, indicating these components have unlimited shelf life and require no special moisture control during storage, handling, or assembly. This specification applies to the connector housings; contacts are supplied separately and may carry different MSL ratings.

Q: Are contacts included with these connector housings?

A: Both the 641415-1 and 770199-1 are supplied as housings only. Contacts are not included and must be procured separately. Ensure selected contacts are compatible with the 0.220" (5.59mm) pitch specification and crimp termination method.

Q: What packaging format is available for the 770199-1?

A: The 770199-1 is supplied in bulk packaging. The 641415-1 packaging specification is not provided in available documentation.
