Amphenol ICC 68004-102 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Amphenol ICC 68004-102 is a through-hole rectangular connector header from the BERGSTIK® II series, configured as a 2-position, single-row male pin header with 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch. This connector is designed for board-to-board applications with solder termination and push-pull fastening. The part is currently obsolete, necessitating identification of active equivalent and substitute components that maintain electrical and mechanical compatibility for new designs or repair applications.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the 68004-102 is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

Pitch - Mating: 0.100" (2.54mm) — mandatory for mechanical compatibility
Number of Positions: 2 — exact position count required
Number of Rows: 1 — single-row configuration only
Connector Type: Header — functional category
Contact Type: Male Pin — gender specification
Mounting Type: Through Hole — PCB assembly method
Termination: Solder — connection method
Fastening Type: Push-Pull — mating mechanism
Contact Shape: Square — contact geometry
Material Flammability Rating: UL94 V-0 — safety compliance

Substitute parts must maintain these parameters. Variations in contact length, insulation material, contact finish, and operating temperature are acceptable provided the core mechanical and electrical interface remains unchanged. Current rating and voltage rating represent maximum ratings; substitutes with equal or higher ratings are acceptable.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All listed substitute parts maintain the core mechanical and electrical interface parameters required for direct replacement of the 68004-102. Selection should be based on product status and regulatory compliance requirements:

For RoHS-compliant applications: 826648-2 (TE Connectivity), 929700-01-02-RK (3M), 929705-01-02-EU (3M), 929705-01-02-I (3M), 929705-06-02-EU (3M), and 929705-06-02-I (3M) are RoHS compliant and active products.

For non-RoHS applications: 2302-6211-TP (3M), 2302-6211TB (3M), 929700-01-02 (3M), and 929700-06-02 (3M) are active alternatives.

Current rating consideration: The 68004-102 is rated at 5A. Substitute parts 2302-6211-TP, 2302-6211TB, 929700-01-02, 929700-01-02-RK, 929700-06-02, 929705-01-02-EU, 929705-01-02-I, 929705-06-02-EU, and 929705-06-02-I are rated at 2.5A or 3A. The 826648-2 maintains the 5A rating. Applications requiring the full 5A capacity should prioritize 826648-2.

Contact length variation: Parts designated with "-06-" suffix (929700-06-02, 929705-06-02-EU, 929705-06-02-I) feature extended post length (0.710" vs. 0.110"), suitable for applications requiring deeper PCB penetration or specific board thickness accommodation.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 68004-102 be directly replaced with any of these substitute parts?

A: Yes. All listed substitute parts share the critical mechanical and electrical parameters: 2-position, 1-row, 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch, through-hole solder termination, push-pull fastening, and square contact geometry. Physical board layout compatibility depends on matching contact length and insulation height specifications for your application.

Q: What is the difference between parts with "-01-" and "-06-" designations?

A: The "-01-" designation indicates standard post length (0.110" to 0.120"), while "-06-" indicates extended post length (0.710"). Extended post versions are used when deeper solder joint penetration or specific board thickness accommodation is required. Verify your PCB thickness and solder joint requirements before selection.

Q: Why do some substitutes have lower current ratings than the original 68004-102?

A: The 68004-102 is rated at 5A, while most 3M 929 and 2300 series alternatives are rated at 2.5A or 3A. The TE Connectivity 826648-2 maintains the 5A rating. For applications operating near maximum current capacity, verify that the substitute's current rating meets your circuit requirements.

Q: What is the significance of the "-EU" and "-I" suffixes in 3M part numbers?

A: These suffixes indicate regional or specification variants. "-EU" typically denotes European compliance variants, while "-I" indicates international variants. Both maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications for the core connector interface.

Q: Are there RoHS compliance differences between substitutes?

A: Yes. The 68004-102 is RoHS non-compliant. For new designs requiring RoHS compliance, select 826648-2, 929700-01-02-RK, 929705-01-02-EU, 929705-01-02-I, 929705-06-02-EU, or 929705-06-02-I. For legacy or non-regulated applications, RoHS non-compliant alternatives remain available.

Q: What contact finish options are available among substitutes?

A: Contact finishes vary: Gold (68004-102, 2302-6211TB, 826648-2, 929705 series), Tin-Lead (2302-6211-TP, 929700-01-02, 929700-06-02), and Tin (929700-01-02-RK). Gold finishes provide superior corrosion resistance; tin finishes are cost-effective for standard applications. Verify compatibility with your mating connector specification.

Q: Can I use a substitute with different insulation material?

A: Yes, provided the insulation height and flammability rating (UL94 V-0) are maintained. Insulation materials vary (PBT, PCT, glass-filled polyester) but do not affect the connector's mechanical interface or electrical performance in standard applications.
