Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of backplane connectors is determined by strict equivalence across electrical and mechanical parameters. The primary criteria for substitution include connector type, position count, loaded positions, pitch spacing, row configuration, style designation, mounting method, termination type, contact finish, and operating temperature range. All substitute parts must maintain identical specifications for these parameters to ensure mechanical and electrical compatibility within the application circuit.

The substitute part 5650466-5 maintains complete equivalence across all critical parameters: 48-position receptacle configuration, 32 loaded positions, 0.100" pitch, 3-row arrangement, C/2 style, through-hole mounting, solder termination, gold contact finish, and -55°C to 125°C operating range. Both parts conform to UL94 V-0 flammability standards and MSL 1 moisture sensitivity classification.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the 650466-5 and 5650466-5 are active production parts manufactured by TE Connectivity AMP Connectors and maintain complete electrical and mechanical equivalence for backplane connector applications. The primary distinction between these parts is regulatory compliance status and insulation material composition.

The 650466-5 is RoHS non-compliant and uses polyester glass-filled insulation material. The 5650466-5 achieves ROHS3 compliance and employs polymer thermoplastic glass-filled insulation. Both materials provide equivalent functional performance within the specified operating temperature range of -55°C to 125°C and maintain UL94 V-0 flammability certification.

Selection between these parts should be based on application compliance requirements. Applications requiring RoHS3 compliance should specify the 5650466-5 substitute part. Applications without RoHS compliance mandates may use either part. The 5650466-5 also offers higher inventory availability at 1043 pieces compared to 836 pieces for the 650466-5.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are the 650466-5 and 5650466-5 mechanically interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both parts are 48-position DIN receptacle connectors with identical mechanical specifications: 0.100" pitch, 3-row configuration, C/2 style, through-hole mounting, and solder termination. They mount identically on printed circuit boards and accept the same mating connectors.

Q: What is the difference in insulation material between these parts?

A: The 650466-5 uses polyester glass-filled insulation, while the 5650466-5 uses polymer thermoplastic glass-filled insulation. Both materials are glass-filled and maintain equivalent electrical and thermal performance across the -55°C to 125°C operating range.

Q: Which part should be selected for new designs?

A: For new designs, the 5650466-5 is the preferred selection due to ROHS3 compliance, which aligns with current regulatory requirements in most markets. The part maintains all electrical and mechanical specifications of the 650466-5 while providing enhanced compliance status.

Q: Are there any temperature or environmental performance differences?

A: No. Both parts operate identically across the -55°C to 125°C temperature range and maintain UL94 V-0 flammability certification. Moisture sensitivity level is identical at MSL 1 (Unlimited) for both parts.

Q: Can the 5650466-5 be used as a direct replacement in existing assemblies?

A: Yes. The 5650466-5 is a direct substitute for the 650466-5 in all applications. No circuit modifications, PCB layout changes, or assembly procedure adjustments are required.

Q: What is the significance of the 32 loaded positions specification?

A: The connector has 48 total positions but only 32 are loaded with contacts. This specification is identical for both parts and indicates the actual number of functional contact positions available for signal or power connections.

Q: Are both parts available in bulk packaging?

A: Yes. Both the 650466-5 and 5650466-5 are supplied in bulk packaging. Current inventory shows 836 pieces for the 650466-5 and 1043 pieces for the 5650466-5 in new original stock.
