Amphenol ICC 65801-044 FFC/FPC Connector Receptacle Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Amphenol ICC 65801-044 is a 15-position FFC/FPC connector receptacle with 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch, designed for free-hanging in-line mounting applications. This Clincher™ series component features IDC termination, gold-plated copper nickel alloy contacts, and operates across -65°C to 105°C. The part is currently active in production with 844 units in stock.

Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters align with the original specification, enabling component interchangeability in applications where the primary part becomes unavailable or when design requirements permit alternative sourcing.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 65801-044 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Connector Configuration: 15-position FFC/FPC receptacle format
• Pitch Specification: 0.100" (2.54mm) contact spacing
• Electrical Ratings: Voltage and current capacity must meet or exceed the original specification
• Operating Temperature: Must support -65°C to 105°C range
• Termination Compatibility: IDC termination method
• Mechanical Mounting: Free-hanging in-line orientation
• Material Standards: Thermoplastic housing with UL94 V-0 flammability rating

The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors part 1-487378-4 qualifies as a substitute based on matching position count, pitch, temperature range, and flammability certification. Differences in voltage rating, current capacity, and connector type classification require engineering evaluation for specific application requirements.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Amphenol ICC 65801-044 remains the primary component for applications requiring 500V and 2A electrical specifications. The part maintains active production status with established supply availability.

The TE Connectivity 1-487378-4 serves as an alternative where application requirements permit reduced voltage (300V) and current (1.5A) ratings. This substitute offers ROHS3 compliance, which may be required for certain regulatory or procurement frameworks. Both components share identical operating temperature range and flammability certification, supporting thermal and safety equivalence in compatible applications.

Selection between these components must be based on specific circuit voltage and current demands, regulatory compliance requirements, and supply chain considerations.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the TE Connectivity 1-487378-4 replace the Amphenol ICC 65801-044 in all applications?

A: Substitution is valid only when application voltage requirements do not exceed 300V and current draw remains below 1.5A. The original part's 500V and 2A ratings provide higher electrical capacity. Verify circuit specifications before substitution.

Q: What is the significance of the pitch specification in connector substitution?

A: Pitch (0.100" or 2.54mm) defines the physical spacing between contact positions. Both parts share identical pitch, ensuring mechanical compatibility with mating connectors and PCB layouts designed for the original component.

Q: How do the RoHS compliance differences affect component selection?

A: The Amphenol ICC 65801-044 is RoHS non-compliant, while the TE Connectivity 1-487378-4 meets ROHS3 standards. Selection depends on end-product regulatory requirements and customer specifications for hazardous substance restrictions.

Q: Are the contact materials equivalent between these parts?

A: The Amphenol ICC 65801-044 specifies copper nickel alloy contacts with gold finish. The TE Connectivity part is described as a housing component with contacts not included. Contact material compatibility must be verified through complete assembly specifications.

Q: What does "Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited)" mean for storage and handling?

A: MSL 1 indicates the component has unlimited shelf life without moisture control requirements. Both parts can be stored under standard industrial conditions without special desiccant packaging or humidity monitoring.
