Equivalent & Substitute Parts for 68463-572 (Amphenol ICC) Rectangular Connector

Part Overview

The Amphenol ICC (FCI) 68463-572 is a rectangular connector header from the BERGSTIK® II series. It features a through hole, right angle mounting with 72 male pin positions in a 2-row layout and a 2.54mm (0.100") pitch, tailored for board-to-board applications. As this part is labeled "Active" but is RoHS non-compliant, finding suitable alternatives is essential for designs requiring RoHS compliance or other variations in the supply chain. Alternative models ensure compatibility in form, fit, and function within the constraints of the specified parameters.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute grouping for the Amphenol ICC 68463-572 rectangular connector is based strictly on the following core parameters: connector type, contact type, pitch (2.54mm), positions (72), number of rows (2), row spacing (2.54mm), shrouding (unshrouded), mounting (through hole, right angle), termination (solder), fastening (push-pull), contact length (mating), contact shape (square), contact material, material flammability rating (UL94 V-0), insulation color, MSL rating, ECCN, and HTSUS. Only parts matching these parameters are considered direct substitutes.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Amphenol ICC 68463-572 is RoHS non-compliant, while the Samtec TSW-136-10-G-D-RA is ROHS3 compliant. For applications requiring RoHS compliance or where environmental regulations are mandatory, TSW-136-10-G-D-RA is a compliant alternative. Both parts are active and have an MSL rating of 1 (unlimited shelf life). Selection between these options should be based on compliance requirements and product availability, according to the provided inventory status and regulatory information.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What determines compatibility between 68463-572 and its substitutes?
A1: Compatibility is determined by matching connector type, contact type, pitch, number of positions, row configuration, mounting type, termination, contact shape and material, flammability rating, insulation color, MSL, ECCN, and HTSUS.

Q2: Are there any differences in electrical or mechanical parameters between the main and substitute parts?
A2: All compared key parameters are matched, with minor variations in contact lengths and insulation height, as shown in the tables. Only provided parameters can be used for substitution assessment.

Q3: Does packaging affect substitution?
A3: Both parts are provided in bulk packaging, so packaging does not affect substitute selection within the criteria given.

Q4: How does RoHS compliance affect selection?
A4: TSW-136-10-G-D-RA is ROHS3 compliant, making it suitable for applications requiring conformance to RoHS directives, whereas 68463-572 is RoHS non-compliant.

Q5: Is there any difference in application scope based on the provided data?
A5: Both parts are described for board-to-board connection; in the substitute, usage is also described as board-to-board or cable. Only the provided application fields are considered in compatibility.
