Amphenol ICC 68016-202 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Amphenol ICC 68016-202 is a rectangular connector header, right-angle mounted, with 2 positions at 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch. This component is classified as obsolete, making equivalent substitute parts necessary for new designs and ongoing production support. The BERGSTIK® II series connector provides board-to-board connectivity with through-hole solder termination and push-pull fastening. Identifying compatible alternatives ensures design continuity and supply chain reliability.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 68016-202 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Connector type (Header)
• Contact type (Male Pin)
• Pitch - mating (0.100" / 2.54mm)
• Number of positions (2)
• Number of rows (1)
• Mounting type (Through Hole, Right Angle)
• Termination method (Solder)
• Fastening type (Push-Pull)
• Current rating (3A minimum)
• Shrouding (Unshrouded)
• Style (Board to Board or Board to Board/Cable)

The substitute parts listed below meet these core electrical and mechanical requirements. Variations in contact material, contact finish, insulation height, and operating temperature range do not prevent functional substitution when the above parameters align.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

5-103325-2 (TE Connectivity AMP Connectors): This part is the closest functional equivalent to the 68016-202. It maintains identical mating contact length (0.230"), post length (0.120"), and current rating (3A). The AMPMODU Mod II series offers active product status with RoHS compliance. The operating temperature range is reduced to -65°C ~ 105°C compared to the original -65°C ~ 130°C specification. Selection of this part is appropriate for applications where RoHS compliance is required and the reduced upper temperature limit is acceptable.

800-10-002-20-001000 (Mill-Max Manufacturing Corp.): This part provides an active alternative with ROHS3 compliance. Contact geometry differs (circular vs. square), and mating contact length is shorter (0.195" vs. 0.230"). Operating temperature and current rating specifications are not provided. This part is suitable for applications where contact shape variation is acceptable and compliance certifications are prioritized.

800-40-002-20-001000 (Mill-Max Manufacturing Corp.): This variant uses tin contact finish with increased thickness (200.0µin vs. 10.0µin on the 800-10 variant). ROHS3 compliance is maintained. Mating contact length and post length are identical to the 800-10 variant. Selection is appropriate when tin finish is preferred over gold for cost or application-specific reasons.

800-90-002-20-001000 (Mill-Max Manufacturing Corp.): This variant uses tin-lead contact finish with 200.0µin thickness. ROHS3 compliance applies. This part is suitable for applications where tin-lead finish is specified or where legacy compatibility with tin-lead soldering processes is required.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 68016-202 be directly replaced with any of these substitute parts?

A: All listed substitute parts meet the core functional requirements: 2-position, 0.100" pitch, through-hole right-angle header with male pins, solder termination, and push-pull fastening. Direct mechanical and electrical substitution is possible. However, design validation is necessary to confirm compatibility with specific application requirements, particularly regarding contact geometry (square vs. circular), mating contact length variations, and operating temperature limits.

Q: What is the primary difference between the TE Connectivity 5-103325-2 and the Mill-Max 800 series options?

A: The TE Connectivity 5-103325-2 maintains the original contact geometry (square) and mating contact length (0.230"), making it the closest form-fit-function replacement. The Mill-Max 800 series uses circular contacts with shorter mating length (0.195"). The 800 series offers three contact finish options (gold, tin, or tin-lead), while the TE part provides gold finish only.

Q: Are there RoHS compliance differences between these parts?

A: The original 68016-202 is RoHS non-compliant. The TE Connectivity 5-103325-2 is RoHS Compliant. All Mill-Max 800 series variants (800-10, 800-40, 800-90) are ROHS3 Compliant. Selection depends on whether RoHS compliance is mandated for the application.

Q: How do contact finish options affect part selection?

A: Contact finish affects corrosion resistance, solderability, and cost. Gold finish (5-103325-2 and 800-10) provides superior corrosion resistance. Tin finish (800-40) offers cost reduction with adequate performance in controlled environments. Tin-lead finish (800-90) is used for legacy compatibility. Selection should align with environmental exposure and soldering process specifications.

Q: What is the significance of the reduced operating temperature range in the TE Connectivity part?

A: The TE Connectivity 5-103325-2 specifies -65°C ~ 105°C versus the original -65°C ~ 130°C. This 25°C reduction in maximum operating temperature may be critical for high-temperature applications. If the application requires sustained operation above 105°C, the Mill-Max alternatives should be evaluated, though their operating temperature specifications are not provided in the data.

Q: Can contact shape differences (square vs. circular) affect mating performance?

A: Contact shape differences may affect mating force, contact resistance, and wear characteristics. Square contacts (68016-202 and 5-103325-2) and circular contacts (Mill-Max 800 series) have different engagement profiles. Mechanical compatibility with the mating connector must be confirmed before substitution, particularly if the mating connector is designed for a specific contact geometry.
