Amphenol ICC 69132-672H Rectangular Connector - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Amphenol ICC 69132-672H is an active rectangular connector header designed for through-hole board-to-board applications. This BERGSTIK® II series component features 72 positions arranged in 2 rows with 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch spacing. The connector employs male pin contacts with gold-plated mating surfaces and phosphor bronze contact material, suitable for solder termination with push-pull fastening. Finding equivalent substitute parts becomes necessary when managing inventory constraints, addressing supply chain disruptions, or accommodating specific manufacturing requirements while maintaining electrical and mechanical compatibility.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the 69132-672H are identified based on strict electrical and mechanical compatibility criteria. The primary substitution parameters are:

• Connector configuration: 72-position, 2-row header with 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch spacing
• Contact type: Male pin configuration for board-to-board mating
• Mounting method: Through-hole solder termination
• Fastening mechanism: Push-pull fastening system
• Style classification: Board-to-board rectangular connector

The Samtec Inc. BBD-136-T-C meets these core substitution criteria, maintaining identical position count, row configuration, pitch spacing, contact type, mounting method, and fastening type. Variations in secondary parameters such as contact length, insulation height, contact shape, and contact finish do not preclude substitution when the primary electrical and mechanical interface requirements are satisfied.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the 69132-672H and BBD-136-T-C are active products suitable for current design implementations. The 69132-672H maintains UL94 V-0 material flammability certification, while the BBD-136-T-C achieves ROHS3 compliance and provides documented operating temperature range specifications (-55°C ~ 125°C). Selection between these parts should be based on specific regulatory requirements, compliance mandates, and thermal operating environment constraints applicable to the end application. The BBD-136-T-C offers enhanced environmental compliance documentation, whereas the 69132-672H provides established flammability certification. Both components share identical core electrical and mechanical interface specifications, ensuring functional interchangeability within the specified connector pitch and position architecture.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the BBD-136-T-C directly replace the 69132-672H in existing designs?

A: Yes, the BBD-136-T-C maintains identical connector configuration, pitch spacing, position count, row arrangement, contact type, mounting method, and fastening mechanism. The components are mechanically and electrically compatible for board-to-board applications requiring 72-position, 2-row through-hole solder termination with 0.100" (2.54mm) spacing.

Q: What are the differences in contact geometry between these parts?

A: The 69132-672H features square-shaped contacts with gold plating and 0.540" (13.72mm) mating contact length. The BBD-136-T-C employs circular-shaped contacts with tin plating and 0.125" (3.18mm) mating contact length. These geometric differences do not affect substitution compatibility when mating with standard 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch receptacles.

Q: How do the insulation heights differ?

A: The 69132-672H has an insulation height of 0.100" (2.54mm), while the BBD-136-T-C measures 0.585" (14.86mm). This dimensional variation may affect board layout spacing and clearance considerations in compact designs. Verify PCB layout compatibility before substitution.

Q: What is the significance of RoHS compliance differences?

A: The 69132-672H is RoHS non-compliant, while the BBD-136-T-C achieves ROHS3 compliance. Applications subject to RoHS regulatory requirements must use the BBD-136-T-C. Applications without RoHS mandates may use either component based on other selection criteria.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: The 69132-672H is supplied in bulk packaging, while the BBD-136-T-C is supplied in tube packaging. Packaging format may affect inventory management, handling procedures, and component counting during assembly operations.

Q: What operating temperature range should be considered?

A: The BBD-136-T-C specifies an operating temperature range of -55°C ~ 125°C. The 69132-672H does not provide documented operating temperature specifications. Applications requiring defined thermal performance parameters should reference the BBD-136-T-C specifications or contact the manufacturer for 69132-672H thermal data.
