Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the 69924-018 is based on the following critical parameters that must align for functional compatibility:

• Pitch - Mating: 0.100" (2.54mm) — determines PCB footprint compatibility
• Connector Type: Header — establishes board-to-board or board-to-cable interface
• Contact Type: Male Pin — defines mating interface
• Mounting Type: Through Hole, Right Angle — ensures mechanical fit on PCB
• Shrouding: Shrouded design — provides mechanical protection and alignment
• Termination: Solder — establishes connection method to PCB
• Fastening Type: Push-Pull — defines mating/unmating mechanism

The substitute part TE Connectivity AMP Connectors 102589-2 shares these core parameters. However, differences exist in position count (36 vs. 16), shrouding configuration (3-wall vs. 4-wall), and compliance status. These differences must be evaluated against specific application requirements.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors 102589-2 is an active product with ROHS3 compliance, addressing the obsolescence and regulatory status of the 69924-018. Both parts share the same mating pitch (0.100"), connector type (header), contact type (male pin), mounting method (through-hole right-angle), and fastening mechanism (push-pull).

Key differences requiring evaluation:

Position count difference (36 vs. 16) — The 102589-2 provides additional positions. Applications requiring exactly 16 positions must accommodate or ignore the extra 20 positions, or select a different substitute with matching position count.

Shrouding configuration (3-wall vs. 4-wall) — The 69924-018 features 4-wall shrouding; the 102589-2 has 3-wall shrouding. This affects mechanical protection and alignment characteristics.

Insulation height variance (0.375" vs. 0.319") — The dimensional difference may impact PCB layout and clearance considerations.

Termination method — The 69924-018 specifies kinked pin termination; the 102589-2 uses standard solder termination. Both are solder-based but differ in pin geometry.

Electrical ratings — The 102589-2 provides specified current (3A) and voltage (250VAC) ratings with operating temperature range (-65°C ~ 105°C), whereas the 69924-018 does not specify these parameters.

Compliance status — The 102589-2 is ROHS3 compliant and active in production, supporting long-term availability and regulatory alignment.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the TE Connectivity 102589-2 directly replace the Amphenol ICC 69924-018 in existing designs?

A: Direct replacement depends on application-specific requirements. Both parts share the same mating pitch (0.100"), connector type, contact type, and mounting method. However, the 102589-2 has 36 positions versus 16 on the 69924-018, and differs in shrouding configuration (3-wall vs. 4-wall) and insulation height. PCB layout and mechanical clearance must be verified before substitution.

Q: What is the significance of the position count difference?

A: The 69924-018 provides 16 positions in a 2-row configuration; the 102589-2 provides 36 positions in a 2-row configuration. If the application requires exactly 16 positions, the extra 20 positions on the 102589-2 must be accommodated in the PCB footprint or left unpopulated. Alternatively, a substitute with matching 16-position configuration should be identified.

Q: How do the shrouding differences affect compatibility?

A: The 69924-018 features 4-wall shrouding, providing full perimeter protection. The 102589-2 has 3-wall shrouding, with one side open. This affects mechanical alignment, dust protection, and mating force characteristics. Applications sensitive to these factors must evaluate the impact on performance and reliability.

Q: What are the compliance implications of the RoHS status difference?

A: The 69924-018 is RoHS non-compliant; the 102589-2 is ROHS3 compliant. For applications subject to RoHS regulations or customer requirements, the 102589-2 meets current compliance standards. The 69924-018 may be restricted or prohibited in regulated markets.

Q: Are the electrical ratings of the 102589-2 suitable for the original application?

A: The 102589-2 specifies 3A current rating and 250VAC voltage rating with -65°C ~ 105°C operating temperature. The 69924-018 does not provide these specifications. Verify that the 102589-2 ratings meet or exceed the application's electrical and thermal requirements.

Q: What is the difference between kinked pin and standard solder termination?

A: Both are solder-based termination methods. Kinked pin termination (69924-018) features a bent pin geometry that may provide additional mechanical retention during soldering. Standard solder termination (102589-2) uses straight pins. Both methods are compatible with standard PCB soldering processes; the choice depends on specific assembly requirements and PCB design.

Q: Is the 102589-2 available in the same packaging as the 69924-018?

A: The 69924-018 packaging is not specified in the provided data. The 102589-2 is supplied in tube packaging. Verify packaging compatibility with procurement and assembly processes.
