Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the 6805W5202201 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

  • Connector Configuration: 5-position D-Sub combo receptacle with female sockets
  • Mounting Interface: Panel mount with unthreaded housing/shell flange
  • Shell Size and Layout: 3 (DB, B) - 5W5 designation
  • Electrical Performance: 20A current rating and solder cup termination
  • Environmental Compliance: RoHS3 compliance and operating temperature range of -55°C to 155°C
  • Material Specifications: Steel shell with nickel plating and gold-flashed contacts

The substitute part 680M5W5203L201 meets all these criteria and is therefore a direct functional equivalent. Both parts are manufactured by NorComp Inc. and belong to the same connector family (680 series), ensuring mechanical and electrical interchangeability.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the 6805W5202201 and 680M5W5203L201 are active, production-grade components manufactured by NorComp Inc. with full RoHS3 compliance. The substitute part 680M5W5203L201 is electrically and mechanically equivalent to the main part across all specified parameters.

Selection between these parts should be based on:

  • Inventory Availability: The main part (6805W5202201) has 716 units in stock; the substitute (680M5W5203L201) has 878 units in stock.
  • Packaging Requirements: The substitute part is supplied in tray packaging, which may influence procurement and handling procedures.
  • Supply Chain Continuity: Either part can be selected without design modification, as both meet identical electrical and mechanical specifications.

Both parts carry ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, confirming suitability for regulated applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 680M5W5203L201 be used as a direct replacement for 6805W5202201 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts are 5-position D-Sub combo receptacles with identical electrical ratings (20A), operating temperature range (-55°C to 155°C), shell size (3 DB/B - 5W5), mounting type (panel mount), and termination method (solder cup). No design modification is required.

Q: What are the key parameters that define substitution eligibility for this connector family?

A: Substitution is determined by matching: connector type (receptacle, female sockets), number of positions (5 power), shell size and layout (3 DB/B - 5W5), current rating (20A), operating temperature range (-55°C to 155°C), shell material and finish (steel, nickel plated), contact finish (gold), and termination method (solder cup).

Q: Does the packaging difference between the main part and substitute affect compatibility?

A: No. The packaging difference (tray for the substitute) does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility. Packaging is a logistics consideration only and does not impact connector performance or interchangeability.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both 6805W5202201 and 680M5W5203L201 are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting regulatory requirements for controlled substance content.

Q: What is the current rating for these connectors?

A: Both connectors are rated for 20A continuous current, suitable for power distribution applications within the specified operating temperature range.
