Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Amphenol ICC 65863-195 is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Connector Type: Header
• Contact Type: Male Pin
• Number of Positions: 34
• Number of Rows: 2
• Pitch - Mating: 0.100" (2.54mm)
• Row Spacing - Mating: 0.100" (2.54mm)
• Mounting Type: Through Hole
• Shrouding: Shrouded - 4 Wall
• Termination: Solder
• Fastening Type: Latch Lock/Eject Hooks, Short
• Contact Shape: Square
• Material Flammability Rating: UL94 V-0

The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors part number 499160-8 satisfies all mandatory matching parameters and qualifies as a direct substitute. Both parts maintain identical mating pitch, position count, row configuration, and shrouding design. The through-hole solder termination and latch lock fastening mechanism are preserved across both components, ensuring mechanical and electrical compatibility in existing PCB layouts.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the Amphenol ICC 65863-195 and TE Connectivity 499160-8 maintain active product status with full availability. Selection between these parts is based on supply chain requirements and packaging preferences rather than functional differences.

The Amphenol ICC 65863-195 is supplied in tray packaging with 839 units currently in inventory. The TE Connectivity 499160-8 is supplied in bulk packaging with 648 units in stock. Both parts carry identical RoHS non-compliant status and MSL 1 rating, indicating equivalent environmental handling requirements.

Contact length variations exist between the two parts: the Amphenol ICC 65863-195 specifies 0.230" (5.84mm) mating contact length and 0.105" (2.67mm) post length, while the TE Connectivity 499160-8 specifies 0.240" (6.10mm) mating contact length and 0.110" (2.79mm) post length. Insulation height also differs: 0.640" (16.26mm) for the Amphenol ICC part versus 0.549" (13.94mm) for the TE Connectivity part. These dimensional variations require verification against specific PCB layout and mating connector specifications before substitution.

Both parts carry UL94 V-0 flammability certification and identical contact finish thickness at the mating interface (30.0µin). The TE Connectivity part provides specified post finish (Tin-Lead) and post finish thickness (100.0µin), whereas the Amphenol ICC part does not specify these parameters.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the TE Connectivity 499160-8 be used as a direct replacement for the Amphenol ICC 65863-195?

A: The TE Connectivity 499160-8 qualifies as a substitute based on matching connector type, contact type, position count, row configuration, mating pitch, row spacing, mounting type, shrouding design, termination method, and fastening mechanism. However, dimensional differences in contact length and insulation height require verification against your specific PCB layout and mating connector specifications before implementation.

Q: What are the key differences between these two parts?

A: The primary differences are contact length dimensions, insulation height, packaging format, and insulation color. The Amphenol ICC 65863-195 features 0.230" mating contact length and 0.640" insulation height in blue, supplied in tray packaging. The TE Connectivity 499160-8 features 0.240" mating contact length and 0.549" insulation height in black, supplied in bulk packaging. Both parts maintain identical mating pitch, position count, and electrical specifications.

Q: Are there compliance or certification differences between these parts?

A: Both parts carry identical UL94 V-0 flammability ratings, RoHS non-compliant status, and MSL 1 moisture sensitivity levels. No compliance or certification differences exist between the two components.

Q: What is the significance of the contact finish specifications?

A: Both parts specify 30.0µin (0.76µm) gold or gold-based contact finish thickness at the mating interface, ensuring equivalent electrical contact resistance and corrosion protection. The TE Connectivity part additionally specifies Tin-Lead post finish with 100.0µin thickness, while the Amphenol ICC part does not provide post finish specifications.

Q: How do packaging differences affect component selection?

A: The Amphenol ICC 65863-195 is supplied in tray packaging with 839 units in inventory, while the TE Connectivity 499160-8 is supplied in bulk packaging with 648 units in inventory. Packaging selection depends on your procurement workflow, storage requirements, and handling procedures. Both formats are suitable for automated assembly processes.

Q: What should be verified before substituting these parts in production?

A: Verify that the dimensional differences in contact length (0.010" variation) and insulation height (0.091" variation) are compatible with your PCB layout, mating connector specifications, and mechanical assembly requirements. Confirm that the black insulation color of the TE Connectivity part does not conflict with your design or assembly documentation that may reference the blue color of the Amphenol ICC part.
