Engineering Selection Recommendations

65801-009LF (Amphenol ICC): This part is the preferred direct substitute for the 65801-009. It maintains identical electrical specifications (500V, 2A, -65°C to 105°C) and mechanical compatibility (9 positions, 0.100" pitch, IDC termination). The 65801-009LF offers additional features including slide lock, zero insertion force (ZIF), and solder retention. Critically, the 65801-009LF is RoHS compliant, whereas the original 65801-009 is not. This part supports FFC thickness of 0.30mm and 0.33mm with flexible cable end options (straight or tapered). Higher inventory availability (3569 units) supports procurement continuity.

487378-8 (TE Connectivity AMP Connectors): This part functions as a housing component only and requires separate procurement of female contacts. The reduced voltage rating (300V versus 500V) and current rating (1.5A versus 2A) limit its application scope. Use this part only in applications where the lower electrical specifications are acceptable and where the housing-only configuration aligns with assembly requirements. RoHS compliance and UL94 V-0 flammability rating are maintained.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 65801-009LF be used as a direct replacement for 65801-009?

A: Yes. The 65801-009LF maintains all critical electrical and mechanical parameters: 9 positions, 0.100" pitch, 500V rating, 2A current rating, IDC termination, and -65°C to 105°C operating range. The 65801-009LF adds enhanced features (slide lock, ZIF, solder retention) and achieves RoHS compliance. Mechanical compatibility is confirmed across both parts.

Q: What is the key difference between 65801-009LF and 487378-8?

A: The 65801-009LF is a complete receptacle assembly with integrated contacts. The 487378-8 is a housing component without contacts; contacts must be sourced and assembled separately. Additionally, 487378-8 has reduced electrical ratings (300V, 1.5A) compared to the 65801-009LF (500V, 2A).

Q: Is RoHS compliance a factor in selecting between these parts?

A: RoHS compliance status differs across the three parts. The original 65801-009 is RoHS non-compliant. Both 65801-009LF and 487378-8 are RoHS compliant. Applications subject to RoHS regulations must use either 65801-009LF or 487378-8.

Q: Can 487378-8 be used in applications requiring 500V or 2A?

A: No. The 487378-8 is rated for 300V maximum and 1.5A maximum. Applications requiring 500V or 2A must use 65801-009 or 65801-009LF.

Q: What FFC thickness does each part support?

A: The 65801-009 supports 0.33mm FFC thickness. The 65801-009LF supports both 0.30mm and 0.33mm FFC thickness. The 487378-8 supports 0.05mm to 0.13mm FFC thickness, which is incompatible with the other two parts.

Q: Are mating cycle ratings specified for all parts?

A: Mating cycle rating of 100 cycles is specified for both 65801-009 and 65801-009LF. The 487378-8 does not provide a mating cycle specification.
