Amphenol ICC 69132-472 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Amphenol ICC 69132-472 is a rectangular connector header designed for through-hole board-to-board applications. This BERGSTIK® II series connector features 72 positions arranged in 2 rows with 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch spacing. The part is currently active in production with 1085 units in stock. Equivalent and substitute parts are identified to provide design flexibility, support supply chain continuity, and accommodate specific application requirements such as contact geometry, insulation material, or compliance certifications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 69132-472 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type, Contact Type, and Mating Pitch: All substitute parts must function as male pin headers with 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch to ensure mechanical and electrical compatibility with corresponding receptacle connectors.
• Position Count and Row Configuration: The 72-position, 2-row arrangement is mandatory for footprint compatibility on printed circuit boards.
• Mounting and Termination: Through-hole solder termination is required for direct PCB integration.
• Style and Fastening: Board-to-board configuration with push-pull fastening ensures proper mating and retention characteristics.

The Samtec Inc. BBD-136-T-C meets these core substitution criteria. Variations in contact length, insulation height, contact shape, and material composition do not preclude substitution when the primary functional parameters align.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

69132-472 (Amphenol ICC BERGSTIK® II)

Select this part when RoHS non-compliance is acceptable for the application. The part carries UL94 V-0 material flammability rating and is currently in active production with substantial inventory availability (1085 units).

BBD-136-T-C (Samtec Inc. BBD Series)

Select this part when RoHS3 compliance is required. The BBD-136-T-C is REACH Unaffected and operates across the temperature range of -55°C to 125°C. Inventory availability is 878 units. The insulation material is specified as polyester with glass filling, and the contact finish post is nickel-plated at 50.0µin (1.27µm) thickness.

Both parts are active products suitable for production applications. Selection between them depends on regulatory compliance requirements and environmental operating conditions specific to the end application.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the BBD-136-T-C directly replace the 69132-472 in existing designs?

A: Yes, for applications where the core functional parameters are the primary concern. Both connectors share identical pitch, position count, row configuration, mounting type, and termination method. Verify that differences in contact length (0.540" vs. 0.125" mating contact length), insulation height (0.100" vs. 0.585"), and contact shape (square vs. circular) do not conflict with your PCB layout or mating connector specifications.

Q: What is the primary difference between these two parts?

A: The 69132-472 is RoHS non-compliant with UL94 V-0 flammability rating, while the BBD-136-T-C is RoHS3 compliant and REACH Unaffected. The BBD-136-T-C also specifies an operating temperature range of -55°C to 125°C and uses polyester glass-filled insulation material.

Q: Are there packaging differences?

A: Yes. The 69132-472 is supplied in bulk packaging, while the BBD-136-T-C is supplied in tube packaging. Confirm packaging requirements for your procurement and assembly processes.

Q: Do both parts support the same mating receptacles?

A: Both parts are 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch, 72-position, 2-row male pin headers with push-pull fastening. Compatibility with mating receptacles depends on the receptacle's mechanical and electrical specifications. Verify receptacle compatibility with both connector series before finalizing the substitution.

Q: Which part should I select for high-temperature applications?

A: The BBD-136-T-C specifies an operating temperature range of -55°C to 125°C. The 69132-472 does not provide an operating temperature specification in the available data. For applications requiring defined temperature performance, the BBD-136-T-C is the appropriate selection.
