Amphenol ICC 70264-201LF Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Amphenol ICC 70264-201LF is a 24-position backplane connector header with male pins for through-hole PCB mounting. This component is classified as obsolete, making equivalent substitute parts necessary for ongoing system maintenance, repairs, and legacy design support. The connector features a 0.079" (2.00mm) pitch, 4-row configuration, and solder termination with board guide support. Finding compatible alternatives ensures design continuity and supply chain reliability for applications requiring this connector specification.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 70264-201LF is determined by the following critical parameters that must match or exceed the original specification:

• Position Count: 24 positions (exact match required)
• Pitch: 0.079" (2.00mm) (exact match required)
• Row Configuration: 4 rows (exact match required)
• Connector Type: Header, Male Pins (exact match required)
• Mounting Type: Through Hole (exact match required)
• Termination: Solder (exact match required)
• Material Flammability Rating: UL94 V-0 (minimum requirement)
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C ~ 125°C (minimum requirement)
• Features: Board Guide (required)

All four substitute parts meet these core substitution criteria. The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors parts (536501-1, 5536501-1, 5536513-1) are Futurebus-style headers within the Z-PACK series. The 3M MP2-H024-41S1-S-LR is a Futurebus+® header from the MetPak™ MP2 series. These alternatives maintain electrical and mechanical compatibility while offering active product status and improved compliance certifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All four substitute parts satisfy the core electrical and mechanical requirements for direct replacement of the 70264-201LF. Selection among these alternatives should be based on the following factors:

TE Connectivity 536501-1: This part offers active product status and gold contact finish. It is not RoHS compliant, making it suitable for applications without RoHS requirements. Inventory availability is 967 units.

TE Connectivity 5536501-1: This variant provides RoHS compliance certification, addressing regulatory requirements for new designs and systems subject to RoHS directives. It offers the highest inventory availability at 2162 units and maintains all core electrical and mechanical specifications.

TE Connectivity 5536513-1: This part carries ROHS3 compliance, representing the most current RoHS standard. Inventory availability is 1052 units. This option is optimal for applications requiring the latest compliance certifications.

3M MP2-H024-41S1-S-LR: This Futurebus+® header includes an additional mating guide feature and supports a higher current rating of 1.5A compared to the original 1A specification. It is RoHS compliant and suitable for applications requiring enhanced mechanical guidance during mating operations. Inventory availability is 986 units.

For legacy system repairs requiring exact functional equivalence, any of the TE Connectivity options provide direct substitution. For new designs or systems requiring modern compliance standards, the 5536501-1 or 5536513-1 are recommended. The 3M alternative is preferred when the higher current rating and mating guide feature provide system benefits.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 70264-201LF be directly replaced with any of these substitute parts?

A: Yes. All four substitute parts maintain the same 24-position, 0.079" pitch, 4-row configuration with through-hole solder termination and board guide features. They are electrically and mechanically compatible with the original specification.

Q: What is the difference between the TE Connectivity 536501-1, 5536501-1, and 5536513-1?

A: The primary differences are compliance certifications. The 536501-1 is not RoHS compliant. The 5536501-1 is RoHS compliant. The 5536513-1 is ROHS3 compliant, representing the most current standard. All three maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications.

Q: Why does the 3M MP2-H024-41S1-S-LR have a higher current rating?

A: The 3M part is rated for 1.5A compared to the original 1A specification. This higher rating reflects the design characteristics of the Futurebus+® connector series and does not affect compatibility. Systems designed for 1A operation will function correctly with this part.

Q: Does the additional mating guide feature on the 3M part affect PCB layout?

A: The mating guide is an external feature that aids connector alignment during mating. It does not require changes to PCB layout or through-hole positioning. The core pin configuration and pitch remain identical.

Q: Which substitute part should be selected for RoHS-compliant applications?

A: The TE Connectivity 5536501-1 (RoHS Compliant) or 5536513-1 (ROHS3 Compliant) are appropriate for RoHS-regulated applications. The 3M MP2-H024-41S1-S-LR is also RoHS compliant.

Q: Are all substitute parts available in the same packaging?

A: All substitute parts are supplied in tube packaging, consistent with standard backplane connector distribution methods.

Q: What is the significance of the gold contact finish on the substitute parts?

A: Gold plating provides enhanced corrosion resistance and improved contact reliability compared to unspecified finishes. This is a beneficial characteristic that does not affect compatibility but improves long-term performance.
