Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the TE Connectivity 650949-5 is based on electrical and mechanical parameter equivalence within the Eurocard DIN connector family. The substitute part 5650949-5 maintains identical specifications across all critical functional parameters: 120-position configuration, 0.100" pitch, 3-row layout, Style C classification, through-hole right-angle mounting, gold contact finish, and operating temperature range of -55°C to 125°C. Both parts meet UL94 V-0 flammability requirements and utilize solder termination.

The key parameters determining substitution eligibility are:

• Connector type and gender (Plug, Male Pins)
• Position count and row configuration (120 positions, 3 rows)
• Contact pitch and spacing (0.100" / 2.54mm)
• Mounting orientation and method (Through Hole, Right Angle)
• Contact material and finish (Gold plating)
• Thermal operating envelope (-55°C ~ 125°C)
• Flammability classification (UL94 V-0)

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the TE Connectivity 650949-5 and 5650949-5 are active products suitable for backplane connector applications. The primary distinction between these parts relates to regulatory compliance status:

The 650949-5 is classified as RoHS non-compliant with REACH Affected status. The 5650949-5 is RoHS Compliant with Vendor Undefined REACH status. Selection between these parts should be determined by the specific regulatory requirements of the end application and target market. Applications subject to RoHS directives or requiring RoHS-compliant component documentation should utilize the 5650949-5. Applications without RoHS compliance mandates may utilize either part based on availability and supply chain requirements.

Both parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications, ensuring functional interchangeability within the specified operating parameters. The material composition differs slightly (Polyester, Glass Filled versus Polymer Thermoplastic, Glass Filled), though both meet the UL94 V-0 flammability standard.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are the 650949-5 and 5650949-5 mechanically interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical mechanical specifications including 120-position configuration, 0.100" pitch, 3-row layout, Style C classification, and through-hole right-angle mounting. Physical dimensions and PCB footprints are equivalent.

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

A: The primary difference is regulatory compliance status. The 5650949-5 is RoHS Compliant, while the 650949-5 is RoHS non-compliant. The insulation material composition also differs between the two parts.

Q: Can I substitute the 650949-5 with the 5650949-5 in a new design?

A: Substitution is permissible from an electrical and mechanical standpoint. However, regulatory compliance requirements must be evaluated. If RoHS compliance is mandated for the application, the 5650949-5 is the appropriate selection.

Q: Do both parts operate within the same temperature range?

A: Yes. Both the 650949-5 and 5650949-5 operate across the identical temperature range of -55°C to 125°C.

Q: Are the solder termination specifications identical?

A: Yes. Both parts utilize solder termination with through-hole mounting configuration and are suitable for standard PCB assembly processes.

Q: What is the moisture sensitivity level for these connectors?

A: Both parts are classified as MSL 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions for storage or handling.

Q: Which part should I select for inventory planning?

A: The 650949-5 currently has higher inventory availability (1155 units) compared to the 5650949-5 (842 units). Selection should balance availability with regulatory compliance requirements for the specific application.
