Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the obsolete 6-828584-4 with active alternatives is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Connector type (Header)
• Contact type (Male Pin)
• Number of positions (64)
• Number of rows (2)
• Pitch spacing (0.100" / 2.54mm)
• Row spacing (0.100" / 2.54mm)
• Mounting configuration (Through Hole, Right Angle)
• Shrouding style (Shrouded - 4 Wall)
• Termination method (Solder)
• Fastening mechanism (Latch Lock/Eject Hooks)
• Contact material (Brass)
• Contact finish on mating surface (Gold or Gold-Palladium)
• Contact finish on post (Tin)
• Series designation (AMP-Latch)

The substitute part 1-5499345-2 maintains equivalence across all mandatory parameters while offering active product status and enhanced compliance certifications.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The TE Connectivity 1-5499345-2 serves as the direct functional equivalent for the obsolete 6-828584-4. Selection of this substitute is supported by the following engineering criteria:

Product Status: The substitute part 1-5499345-2 maintains active product status, ensuring continued availability and manufacturer support. The main part 6-828584-4 is classified as obsolete, limiting procurement options and future technical support.

Compliance and Certifications: The substitute part 1-5499345-2 is RoHS Compliant and carries UL94 V-0 material flammability certification. These certifications address regulatory requirements for modern electronic applications. The main part lists RoHS status as not applicable, reflecting its obsolete classification.

Electrical and Mechanical Specifications: Both parts maintain identical core specifications across connector type, contact configuration, pitch spacing, mounting orientation, and termination method. The substitute provides documented operating temperature range (-65°C ~ 105°C), current rating (1A per contact), and voltage rating (250VAC), specifications not provided for the main part.

Physical Dimensions: Contact length and insulation height variations between the parts fall within acceptable engineering tolerances for board-to-cable/wire connector applications. Contact shape variation (circular to square) does not affect functional compatibility within the AMP-Latch series framework.

Packaging: The substitute is supplied in tray packaging, suitable for automated assembly and inventory management in production environments.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1-5499345-2 directly replace the 6-828584-4 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical connector type, position count, pitch spacing, mounting configuration, and termination method. The substitute maintains full mechanical and electrical compatibility within the AMP-Latch series.

Q: What are the differences in contact dimensions between these parts?

A: Contact length on the mating side differs by 0.006" (0.15mm), and post length differs by 0.008" (0.21mm). Insulation height differs by 0.031" (0.80mm). These variations are within acceptable tolerances for standard connector applications and do not affect mating performance.

Q: Does the contact shape change from circular to square affect compatibility?

A: No. Both contact shapes are functionally equivalent within the AMP-Latch series. The square contact in the substitute part maintains the same electrical and mechanical performance characteristics required for board-to-cable/wire connections.

Q: What compliance advantages does the substitute part offer?

A: The 1-5499345-2 is RoHS Compliant and carries UL94 V-0 material flammability certification. The main part does not provide these certifications. For applications requiring regulatory compliance, the substitute is the appropriate selection.

Q: Are the electrical ratings specified for both parts?

A: The main part 6-828584-4 does not provide current or voltage ratings. The substitute 1-5499345-2 is rated for 1A per contact at 250VAC and operates across -65°C to 105°C. These specifications should be evaluated against application requirements.

Q: What is the significance of the "Short" fastening type designation on the substitute?

A: The substitute features "Latch Lock/Eject Hooks, Short" compared to the main part's "Latch Lock/Eject Hooks." This indicates a refined fastening mechanism within the same functional category. Both provide equivalent latch and eject functionality for secure mating and controlled disconnection.

Q: Is packaging format a consideration for substitution?

A: The main part packaging is not specified. The substitute is supplied in tray packaging, which is standard for production environments and automated assembly processes. Packaging format does not affect connector performance or compatibility.

Q: Can the substitute be used in new designs?

A: Yes. The active product status of 1-5499345-2, combined with its RoHS compliance and UL94 V-0 certification, makes it suitable for new design implementations. The obsolete status of the main part makes the substitute the appropriate choice for ongoing and future applications.
