Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Recommendation: Amphenol ICC 68683-613LF

The 68683-613LF is the direct active equivalent of the obsolete 68683-613. Both parts are manufactured by Amphenol ICC within the Dubox™ series and share identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The 68683-613LF carries active product status and RoHS compliance certification, making it the preferred choice for new designs and direct replacement applications. Inventory availability is 851 pieces.

Secondary Recommendation: Amphenol ICC 68683-313LF

The 68683-313LF is an alternative Amphenol ICC solution within the Dubox™ series. It maintains full compatibility with the 68683-613 across all critical substitution parameters. This part is actively manufactured with higher inventory availability (1,306 pieces) and carries RoHS compliance. REACH status is listed as affected, which may require verification for specific regulatory environments.

Cross-Manufacturer Alternatives:

TE Connectivity 1-215307-3 (AMPMODU HV-100 Series): This part meets all primary substitution criteria with identical pitch, position count, and row configuration. The contact length post is 0.122" (3.10mm) compared to 0.115" (2.92mm) on the original part. Operating temperature range is not specified. This connector is suitable for applications where the slightly longer post length does not create mechanical conflicts. Inventory: 5,641 pieces.

TE Connectivity 6-534206-3 (AMPMODU Mod II Series): This connector maintains compatibility across all critical parameters. The insulation height is 0.320" (8.13mm) versus 0.276" (7.00mm) on the original part, representing a 0.044" (1.13mm) increase. This dimensional difference may affect board layout and mating clearances. Current rating is specified at 2A. Inventory: 20,199 pieces.

Mill-Max 803-43-026-10-001000 (Series 803): This part provides functional equivalence with notable material and contact geometry differences. The contact shape is circular rather than square, and the contact material is beryllium copper instead of phosphor bronze. The contact finish thickness on the post is 200.0µin (5.08µm), significantly higher than the original 100.0µin (2.54µm). Operating temperature range is -55°C ~ 125°C, with a lower minimum temperature limit. Current rating is 4.5A. Inventory: 885 pieces.

Compliance and Certification Status:

All substitute parts carry UL94 V-0 flammability ratings and RoHS3 compliance. The 68683-613LF and 68683-313LF maintain the closest alignment with the original part's compliance profile. Cross-manufacturer alternatives carry equivalent certifications suitable for automotive, industrial, and telecommunications applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 68683-613LF be used as a direct replacement for the obsolete 68683-613?

A: Yes. The 68683-613LF is manufactured by Amphenol ICC and shares identical specifications across all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. Both parts are Dubox™ series connectors with 26 positions, 0.100" pitch, through-hole solder termination, and gold-plated mating contacts. The primary difference is product status: the 68683-613 is obsolete while the 68683-613LF is actively manufactured.

Q: What are the key differences between Amphenol ICC and TE Connectivity substitute options?

A: Amphenol ICC parts (68683-613LF and 68683-313LF) maintain identical insulation height (0.276") and contact length specifications to the original 68683-613. TE Connectivity alternatives introduce minor dimensional variations: the 1-215307-3 has a longer contact post (0.122" vs. 0.115"), and the 6-534206-3 has increased insulation height (0.320" vs. 0.276"). These differences may affect board layout compatibility and should be verified against specific PCB designs.

Q: Is the Mill-Max 803-43-026-10-001000 suitable as a substitute?

A: The Mill-Max connector meets all primary substitution criteria for position count, pitch, and fastening type. However, it introduces material and geometry differences: circular contacts instead of square, beryllium copper instead of phosphor bronze, and significantly higher post finish thickness (200.0µin vs. 100.0µin). These differences do not preclude functional equivalence in standard applications but should be evaluated against specific electrical performance requirements and mating connector specifications.

Q: What packaging options are available for substitute parts?

A: The Amphenol ICC alternatives (68683-613LF and 68683-313LF) are supplied in tube packaging, matching the original 68683-613. The TE Connectivity 1-215307-3 is supplied in tray packaging. The TE Connectivity 6-534206-3 and Mill-Max 803-43-026-10-001000 are supplied in tube packaging. Packaging selection may affect procurement logistics and handling procedures.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. All listed substitute parts carry RoHS compliance certification. The 68683-613, 68683-613LF, 1-215307-3, 6-534206-3, and 803-43-026-10-001000 are ROHS3 compliant. The 68683-313LF carries RoHS compliance. All parts are suitable for applications requiring RoHS-compliant components.

Q: What is the significance of the contact finish thickness variations?

A: Contact finish thickness affects durability and wear resistance. The original 68683-613 and most substitutes specify 100.0µin (2.54µm) post finish thickness. The 6-534206-3 specifies 150.0µin (3.81µm), and the Mill-Max 803-43-026-10-001000 specifies 200.0µin (5.08µm). Higher finish thickness provides increased protection against corrosion and wear in high-cycle mating applications. Selection should be based on application duty cycle and environmental exposure.

Q: Can substitute parts with different operating temperature ranges be used in -65°C applications?

A: The original 68683-613 and most substitutes specify -65°C ~ 125°C operating range. The TE Connectivity 1-215307-3 does not specify an operating temperature range. The Mill-Max 803-43-026-10-001000 specifies -55°C ~ 125°C, with a higher minimum temperature limit. For applications requiring -65°C operation, the Amphenol ICC alternatives (68683-613LF and 68683-313LF) and TE Connectivity 6-534206-3 are recommended.

Q: What inventory levels are available for each substitute part?

A: Current inventory levels are: 68683-613LF (851 pieces), 68683-313LF (1,306 pieces), 1-215307-3 (5,641 pieces), 6-534206-3 (20,199 pieces), and 803-43-026-10-001000 (885 pieces). Inventory availability may influence procurement decisions for high-volume applications or time-sensitive projects.
