Amphenol ICC 68416-436 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Amphenol ICC 68416-436 is a rectangular connector header for through-hole mounting with 36 positions at 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch. This component is classified as obsolete, making substitute parts necessary for new designs and ongoing production support. The BERGSTIK® II series connector provides board-to-board connectivity with unshrouded, push-pull fastening in a single-row configuration. Identifying compatible alternatives ensures design continuity and supply chain flexibility.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility is determined by strict adherence to the following core parameters:

Pitch - Mating: 0.100" (2.54mm) — all substitutes must match exactly
Number of Positions: 36 — all substitutes must provide 36 positions
Contact Type: Male Pin — all substitutes must be male pin headers
Mounting Type: Through Hole — all substitutes must support through-hole PCB mounting
Termination: Solder — all substitutes must use solder termination
Fastening Type: Push-Pull — all substitutes must feature push-pull fastening
Contact Shape: Square — all substitutes must have square contact geometry
Material Flammability Rating: UL94 V-0 — all substitutes must meet this safety standard

Substitute parts are grouped into two categories: direct Amphenol ICC alternatives (same manufacturer, active product status) and cross-manufacturer alternatives (TE Connectivity, Samtec, Sullins) that meet all electrical and mechanical compatibility requirements.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Recommendation — Amphenol ICC 68000-436HLF

The 68000-436HLF is the direct successor within the BERGSTIK® II series. It maintains identical pitch, position count, contact type, and fastening specifications while offering active product status and RoHS compliance. This part is the preferred choice for designs requiring minimal qualification effort and maximum form-factor compatibility.

Secondary Recommendation — Amphenol ICC 68771-436HLF

The 68771-436HLF provides an alternative within the same manufacturer ecosystem with active status and RoHS compliance. It maintains all core electrical and mechanical parameters required for substitution.

Cross-Manufacturer Alternatives

TE Connectivity 8-146274-6, Samtec TSW series (TSW-136-07-F-S, TSW-136-09-G-S, TSW-136-09-T-S, TSW-136-10-G-S, TSW-136-10-T-S), Samtec HTSW-136-26-TM-S, and Sullins PGC36SAAN all meet the core substitution criteria. These parts are active, RoHS compliant, and maintain the required 0.100" pitch, 36-position, male pin, through-hole solder configuration with push-pull fastening. Selection among these alternatives depends on contact finish requirements (tin versus gold), insulation material specifications, and operating temperature ranges.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 68416-436 be directly replaced with 68000-436HLF?

A: Yes. Both parts share the BERGSTIK® II series designation, identical pitch (0.100"), 36 positions, male pin contacts, through-hole mounting, solder termination, and push-pull fastening. The 68000-436HLF is active and RoHS compliant, making it the direct successor.

Q: What is the primary difference between Samtec TSW variants (TSW-136-07-F-S, TSW-136-09-G-S, TSW-136-09-T-S, TSW-136-10-G-S, TSW-136-10-T-S)?

A: The variants differ in contact post length and contact finish. Post lengths range from 0.100" to 0.500", and contact finishes are either gold or tin. All maintain the required 0.100" pitch and 36-position configuration. Selection depends on PCB thickness and soldering requirements.

Q: Are there RoHS compliance differences among substitutes?

A: Yes. The original 68416-436 is RoHS non-compliant. All listed substitutes are RoHS compliant (ROHS3 or full RoHS compliance), making them suitable for applications requiring environmental compliance.

Q: Does contact finish affect electrical performance?

A: Contact finish (tin versus gold) affects corrosion resistance and contact resistance characteristics. Tin-finished contacts (68000-436HLF, TSW-136-09-T-S, TSW-136-10-T-S) are standard for most applications. Gold-finished contacts (PGC36SAAN, TSW-136-07-F-S, TSW-136-09-G-S, TSW-136-10-G-S) provide enhanced corrosion resistance in harsh environments.

Q: Can cross-manufacturer parts be mixed with Amphenol ICC connectors in the same assembly?

A: All listed substitutes maintain identical pitch (0.100"), position count (36), contact type (male pin), and fastening (push-pull). Mechanical and electrical compatibility is ensured. However, connector housing and mating interface designs may differ between manufacturers; verify mating connector compatibility before assembly.

Q: What packaging options are available?

A: Amphenol ICC 68000-436HLF is supplied in bag packaging. Amphenol ICC 68771-436HLF, TE Connectivity 8-146274-6, Samtec TSW series, and Sullins PGC36SAAN are supplied in bulk packaging. Packaging does not affect electrical or mechanical performance.

Q: Are operating temperature ranges consistent across all substitutes?

A: Operating temperature ranges vary. The original 68416-436 does not specify an operating temperature range. Substitutes range from -55°C to 105°C (Samtec TSW-136-09-T-S, TSW-136-10-T-S) to -65°C to 125°C (Amphenol ICC 68000-436HLF, 68771-436HLF, Samtec TSW-136-07-F-S, TSW-136-09-G-S, TSW-136-10-G-S). Verify application temperature requirements before selection.
