Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Amphenol ICC 65863-321 is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type: Header
• Contact Type: Male Pin
• Number of Positions: 16
• 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
• Contact Shape: Square
• Material Flammability Rating: UL94 V-0

The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors part number 499922-3 satisfies all critical substitution parameters. Both connectors share identical pitch spacing, position count, shrouding configuration, and mounting methodology. Electrical and mechanical compatibility is established through matching contact geometry, termination type, and flammability certification.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the Amphenol ICC 65863-321 and TE Connectivity 499922-3 maintain Active product status with established supply availability. Selection between these parts should be based on application-specific requirements and design constraints.

The Amphenol ICC 65863-321 is specified for applications requiring the Quickie™ series connector with the original contact geometry and insulation height profile. The part carries RoHS non-compliant status.

The TE Connectivity 499922-3 provides equivalent electrical and mechanical functionality within the AMP-Latch series. This substitute offers extended operating temperature range (-65°C to 105°C), defined current rating (1A), and voltage rating (250VAC). The part features longer fastening hooks and mounting flange provisions. RoHS applicability status differs from the original part.

Both connectors satisfy UL94 V-0 flammability requirements and maintain MSL 1 moisture sensitivity classification. Contact finish specifications align at 15.0µin (0.38µm) for mating surfaces. Dimensional variations in contact length and insulation height must be evaluated against specific board layout and mating connector requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the TE Connectivity 499922-3 be used as a direct replacement for the Amphenol ICC 65863-321?

A: The TE Connectivity 499922-3 is electrically and mechanically compatible based on matching pitch spacing (2.54mm), position count (16), row configuration (2), shrouding type (4-wall), and contact geometry (square). However, dimensional differences exist in contact length and insulation height. Physical fit verification against mating connectors and PCB layout is required before implementation.

Q: What are the key differences between these two connector models?

A: Primary differences include manufacturer series designation (Quickie™ versus AMP-Latch), contact length specifications (0.230" versus 0.240" mating length), insulation height (0.640" versus 0.549"), fastening hook configuration (standard versus long with mounting flange), and operating temperature definition (unspecified versus -65°C to 105°C). Contact finish composition differs slightly (Gold, GXT™ versus Gold-Palladium).

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

A: Both connectors carry UL94 V-0 flammability certification and MSL 1 moisture sensitivity classification. RoHS compliance status differs: the Amphenol ICC 65863-321 is RoHS non-compliant, while the TE Connectivity 499922-3 carries "Not applicable" RoHS status. The TE Connectivity part is REACH Affected. ECCN and HTSUS classifications are identical.

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

A: Verify mating connector compatibility with the substitute part's contact length and insulation height specifications. Confirm PCB layout accommodates any dimensional variations. Validate that the extended operating temperature range and defined electrical ratings (1A, 250VAC) of the substitute meet application requirements. Assess RoHS and REACH compliance implications for your supply chain and end-use market.

Q: Are both parts currently available?

A: Both connectors maintain Active product status. Current inventory shows 672 units of the Amphenol ICC 65863-321 and 1154 units of the TE Connectivity 499922-3 in stock.
