Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the 65863-075 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Connector type (Header)
• Contact type (Male Pin)
• Pitch and spacing (0.100" / 2.54mm)
• Position count (26 positions, 2 rows)
• Shrouding configuration (Shrouded - 4 Wall)
• Mounting method (Through Hole)
• Termination type (Solder)
• Fastening mechanism (Latch Lock/Eject Hooks)
• Contact finish specification (Gold or equivalent)
• Flammability rating (UL94 V-0)

The identified substitutes meet these core electrical and mechanical requirements. Variations in contact length, insulation height, and post finish do not preclude functional equivalence in standard applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both 102321-6 and CWN-562-26-0021 are functionally equivalent substitutes for the obsolete 65863-075 across all critical electrical and mechanical parameters.

102321-6 (TE Connectivity AMP-Latch): This substitute maintains active product status and is manufactured by TE Connectivity, a primary connector supplier. It carries RoHS non-compliant status matching the original part. Operating temperature range is specified as -65°C to 105°C with 1A per contact current rating and 250VAC voltage rating. This part is suitable for direct replacement in applications where the original specifications are maintained.

CWN-562-26-0021 (CW Industries CWN Series): This substitute is ROHS3 compliant, providing regulatory advantage for new designs or applications with RoHS requirements. It maintains active product status and specifies an extended operating temperature range of -55°C to 125°C with 1A current rating. REACH status is unaffected. This part is suitable for applications requiring RoHS compliance or extended temperature performance.

Selection between these substitutes depends on regulatory requirements and environmental specifications of the target application.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 102321-6 or CWN-562-26-0021 be used as direct replacements for 65863-075?

A: Both parts meet the core substitution criteria: 26-position, 2-row header configuration at 2.54mm pitch with shrouded 4-wall construction, through-hole mounting, solder termination, and latch lock/eject fastening. Mechanical fit and electrical function are equivalent.

Q: What are the differences in contact length between these parts?

A: The 65863-075 has mating contact length of 0.230" (5.84mm) and post length of 0.150" (3.81mm). Both substitutes have mating contact length of 0.240" (6.10mm) and post length of 0.155" (3.94mm). These minor variations do not affect standard board-to-cable/wire applications.

Q: Does insulation height variation affect compatibility?

A: The three parts have different insulation heights: 65863-075 at 0.640" (16.26mm), 102321-6 at 0.549" (13.94mm), and CWN-562-26-0021 at 0.681" (17.30mm). Insulation height does not determine electrical or mechanical compatibility in standard applications. Verify clearance in your specific PCB layout if space constraints exist.

Q: What is the difference between square and circular contact shapes?

A: The 65863-075 and 102321-6 feature square contacts, while CWN-562-26-0021 features circular contacts. Both contact geometries are compatible with standard 2.54mm pitch mating connectors and do not affect functional equivalence.

Q: Which substitute should I select for RoHS-compliant applications?

A: CWN-562-26-0021 is ROHS3 compliant. The 65863-075 and 102321-6 are both RoHS non-compliant. For new designs requiring RoHS compliance, CWN-562-26-0021 is the appropriate selection.

Q: What is the operating temperature range for each part?

A: The 65863-075 does not specify an operating temperature range. The 102321-6 operates from -65°C to 105°C. The CWN-562-26-0021 operates from -55°C to 125°C. Select based on your application's thermal requirements.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these substitutes?

A: The 65863-075 packaging is not specified. The 102321-6 is supplied in Tray packaging. The CWN-562-26-0021 is supplied in Bulk packaging. Verify packaging requirements for your procurement and assembly processes.
