Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the 68710-152 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Connector type (Header)
• Contact type (Male Pin)
• Number of positions (34)
• Number of rows (2)
• Pitch spacing (0.100" / 2.54mm mating and row spacing)
• Mounting method (Through Hole)
• Shrouding configuration (Shrouded - 4 Wall)
• Termination method (Press-Fit, Solder)
• Contact material (Phosphor Bronze Alloy)
• Contact finish (Gold, GXT™)
• Insulation material (Polyester, Glass Filled)
• Flammability rating (UL94 V-0)

The substitute part 10080054-152LF maintains all critical electrical and mechanical parameters required for direct functional replacement. Minor variations in contact length dimensions (0.230" vs. 0.234" mating contact length) fall within acceptable tolerance ranges for this connector class and do not affect mating compatibility or performance.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 10080054-152LF is the direct active equivalent for the obsolete 68710-152. Selection of this substitute is based on the following factors:

Product Status: The 68710-152 is obsolete. The 10080054-152LF maintains active product status with Amphenol ICC (FCI), ensuring ongoing availability and manufacturing support.

Compliance: The 10080054-152LF is RoHS Compliant, whereas the original part is RoHS non-compliant. This substitution aligns designs with current regulatory requirements. The substitute is REACH Affected, indicating compliance with REACH regulations.

Functional Equivalence: All critical electrical and mechanical parameters are identical between the two parts. The minor dimensional variation in contact length (0.004" difference) is within standard manufacturing tolerances for this connector class and does not impact mating performance or circuit functionality.

Packaging: The 10080054-152LF is supplied in Tray packaging, compared to the original part's unspecified packaging. This represents a standard distribution format for active production components.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 10080054-152LF directly replace the 68710-152 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The 10080054-152LF is functionally equivalent across all critical parameters: connector type, contact configuration, pitch spacing, mounting method, shrouding, termination, contact material, and finish specifications. The parts are mechanically and electrically interchangeable.

Q: What is the significance of the RoHS compliance difference?

A: The original 68710-152 is RoHS non-compliant, while the 10080054-152LF is RoHS Compliant. For new designs or applications subject to RoHS regulations, the 10080054-152LF is the appropriate selection. For legacy systems where RoHS compliance is not a requirement, either part may be used based on availability.

Q: Are there dimensional differences that affect PCB layout?

A: The contact length dimensions differ slightly (0.230" vs. 0.234" for mating contact length, and 0.625" vs. 0.629" for overall contact length). These variations are within standard manufacturing tolerances and do not require PCB layout modifications. Both parts maintain identical pitch spacing (0.100" / 2.54mm) and row spacing.

Q: What is the difference between the packaging formats?

A: The 68710-152 packaging is unspecified in available documentation. The 10080054-152LF is supplied in Tray packaging, which is standard for active production components and facilitates automated assembly processes.

Q: Are both parts from the same manufacturer?

A: Yes. Both the 68710-152 and 10080054-152LF are manufactured by Amphenol ICC (FCI) and belong to the Quickie™ series, ensuring design consistency and compatibility with existing connector ecosystems.

Q: What is the inventory status for these parts?

A: The 68710-152 has 870 pieces in stock as new original inventory. The 10080054-152LF has 1103 pieces in stock as new original inventory. The active status of the 10080054-152LF ensures continued availability for future procurement.
