Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the 69157-572 are qualified based on the following critical parameters that must remain constant:

Connector type (Header)
Contact type (Male Pin)
Number of positions (72)
Number of rows (2)
Pitch - mating (0.100" / 2.54mm)
Row spacing - mating (0.100" / 2.54mm)

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All substitute parts listed maintain active product status and are manufactured by Sullins Connector Solutions, a qualified connector supplier. The PBC36 series parts (PBC36DAAN, PBC36DABN, PBC36DACN, PBC36DAFN, PBC36DAHN) are ROHS3 compliant, providing regulatory advantage over the original 69157-572 which is RoHS non-compliant. The PEC36 series parts (PEC36DAAN, PEC36DABN) also maintain ROHS3 compliance with tin mating contact finish as an alternative to gold.

Selection between substitute parts is determined by required contact post length, which accommodates different PCB thicknesses and application stack-up requirements. The PBC36DAAN and PEC36DAAN variants offer post lengths of 0.120" (3.05mm), suitable for standard PCB applications. Extended post lengths are available in PBC36DABN (0.230"), PBC36DACN (0.320"), PBC36DAFN (0.620"), and PBC36DAHN (0.820") for applications requiring deeper insertion or multiple stacked boards.

Contact finish selection between gold (PBC36 series) and tin (PEC36 series) depends on application requirements and cost considerations. All substitute parts maintain the same mating contact length of 0.230" (5.84mm), which is slightly longer than the original 69157-572 at 0.200" (5.08mm), ensuring reliable mating engagement.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can PBC36DAAN be used as a direct replacement for 69157-572?

A: PBC36DAAN is functionally equivalent for board-to-board mating applications. The primary difference is contact post length: PBC36DAAN has 0.120" (3.05mm) posts compared to 69157-572 at 0.110" (2.79mm). This 0.010" difference is within typical PCB tolerance ranges for standard applications. Verify PCB hole depth and stack-up requirements before substitution.

Q: What is the difference between PBC36 and PEC36 series parts?

A: The PBC36 series features gold mating contact finish with tin post finish, while the PEC36 series uses tin for both mating and post contacts. Both series maintain identical mechanical dimensions, pitch, and position count. Selection depends on application corrosion resistance requirements and cost considerations.

Q: Why do different post lengths exist for the same connector?

A: Contact post length determines insertion depth into PCB holes and accommodates varying PCB thicknesses. Standard applications typically use 0.120" to 0.230" post lengths. Extended lengths (0.320" to 0.820") support applications with multiple stacked boards, thick substrates, or specific mechanical requirements. Verify PCB hole depth specifications before selecting post length.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS compliant?

A: All Sullins substitute parts listed (PBC36 and PEC36 series) are ROHS3 compliant. The original 69157-572 is RoHS non-compliant. For applications requiring RoHS compliance, any of the listed substitute parts satisfy regulatory requirements.

Q: What is the operating temperature range for substitute parts?

A: All Sullins substitute parts operate across -65°C to 125°C, providing wider temperature range than the original 69157-572 which does not specify operating temperature limits.

Q: Can breakaway connector variants be used in non-breakaway applications?

A: Yes. The PBC36 and PEC36 series are specified as "Header, Breakaway" variants, meaning they support both standard header applications and breakaway configurations. The breakaway feature does not prevent use in standard board-to-board applications.
