TE Connectivity AMP Connectors 650090-7 Card Edge Connector Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors 650090-7 is a 46-position female card edge connector designed for dual edge applications with 0.050" (1.27mm) pitch spacing. This connector features gold-plated phosphor bronze contacts, through-hole solder termination with staggered configuration, and a brown thermoplastic insulation body. The connector maintains an operating temperature range of -55°C to 105°C and is classified as RoHS non-compliant with unlimited moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1). The product is currently active in inventory with 971 pieces available. Substitute parts are identified to provide alternative sourcing options, particularly for applications requiring RoHS compliance or different packaging configurations.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the TE Connectivity 650090-7 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters: connector category (Card Edge Connectors), number of positions (46), gender (Female), pitch spacing (0.050"), number of rows (2), card type (Non Specified - Dual Edge), card thickness (0.062"), contact material (Phosphor Bronze), contact finish (Gold), contact finish thickness (30.0µin), termination method (Solder, Staggered), mounting type (Through Hole), and insulation material (Thermoplastic).

The identified substitute part 5650090-7 maintains full electrical and mechanical compatibility with the main part across all critical parameters. Differences exist in packaging configuration (Bulk versus unspecified), operating temperature upper limit (85°C versus 105°C), RoHS compliance status (ROHS3 Compliant versus non-compliant), and inventory availability. These differences do not affect functional interchangeability for applications operating within the lower temperature threshold.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The TE Connectivity 5650090-7 serves as a direct functional substitute for the 650090-7 across all electrical and mechanical parameters. Selection between these parts depends on specific application requirements:

For applications requiring RoHS3 compliance: The 5650090-7 is the appropriate selection, as it meets ROHS3 compliance requirements while the 650090-7 is RoHS non-compliant.

For applications operating at temperatures above 85°C: The 650090-7 must be selected, as it maintains an operating temperature range of -55°C to 105°C, compared to the 5650090-7 upper limit of 85°C.

For applications with no specific compliance or temperature constraints: Either part is functionally equivalent. The 5650090-7 offers higher inventory availability (1733 pieces versus 971 pieces) and bulk packaging configuration.

Both parts maintain identical electrical characteristics, mechanical dimensions, contact specifications, and termination methods. The choice between them is determined by regulatory compliance mandates, operating temperature requirements, and packaging preferences.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are the 650090-7 and 5650090-7 electrically interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both connectors feature identical 46-position female configurations with 0.050" pitch, phosphor bronze gold-plated contacts, and solder staggered termination. Electrical performance is equivalent across all specified parameters.

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

A: The 5650090-7 is ROHS3 compliant with an operating temperature range of -55°C to 85°C, while the 650090-7 is RoHS non-compliant with an operating temperature range of -55°C to 105°C. Both are mechanically and electrically identical.

Q: Can I use the 5650090-7 in an application designed for the 650090-7?

A: The 5650090-7 is compatible if the application operates within the -55°C to 85°C temperature range. If the application requires operation above 85°C, the 650090-7 must be used.

Q: Can I use the 650090-7 in an application requiring RoHS3 compliance?

A: No. The 650090-7 is RoHS non-compliant. Applications with RoHS3 compliance requirements must use the 5650090-7.

Q: What is the difference in packaging between these parts?

A: The 5650090-7 is supplied in bulk packaging, while the 650090-7 packaging specification is not provided in the technical data.

Q: Are the mechanical dimensions identical?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical card thickness (0.062"), pitch spacing (0.050"), number of positions (46), number of rows (2), and all other mechanical specifications.

Q: Which part should I select for new designs?

A: Selection depends on regulatory and thermal requirements. For RoHS3-compliant applications operating at or below 85°C, use the 5650090-7. For applications requiring operation above 85°C without RoHS compliance mandates, use the 650090-7.

Q: Are the contact specifications identical?

A: Yes. Both parts feature phosphor bronze contacts with gold finish at 30.0µin (0.76µm) thickness, identical contact material, and identical contact finish specifications.
