Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 73725-1030BLF is determined by the following critical parameters:

  • Connector Type: USB-A (USB TYPE-A) receptacle
  • Specifications: USB 2.0 compliance
  • Mounting Type: Through Hole, Right Angle
  • Termination Method: Solder
  • Current Rating: 2.5A minimum
  • Operating Temperature Range: -55°C to 85°C
  • Shielding: Shielded construction
  • Contact Finish: Gold plating
  • Shell Material: Copper Alloy

The substitute parts identified maintain these core electrical and mechanical parameters. Variations in contact count (4 vs. 5 positions), insulation color, and product status (active vs. obsolete) are secondary characteristics that do not affect functional substitution within the USB 2.0 Type-A receptacle category.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

73725-0110BLF is the manufacturer-recommended substitute. This part maintains all critical electrical and mechanical parameters of the 73725-1030BLF with the exception of contact count (4 positions vs. 5 positions). The 73725-0110BLF is active in production status and available in higher inventory quantities (1580 pcs). This part is RoHS Compliant and REACH Affected.

73725-0010BLF is a parametric equivalent offering 5-position contact configuration matching the original part. This connector is active in production and available in the highest inventory quantity (2407 pcs). The 73725-0010BLF is ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected, providing enhanced environmental compliance status.

73725-1010BLF is a parametric equivalent with 5-position contact configuration and black insulation matching the original part's color specification. This part is active in production status with moderate inventory availability (688 pcs). The 73725-1010BLF is REACH Affected.

All three substitute parts share the same series designation (73725), connector type (USB-A), mounting configuration (through-hole right-angle), and electrical ratings (2.5A, USB 2.0, 1500 mating cycles) as the obsolete 73725-1030BLF.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 73725-0110BLF replace the 73725-1030BLF in all applications?

A: The 73725-0110BLF is functionally compatible for USB 2.0 Type-A receptacle applications requiring through-hole, right-angle mounting. The primary difference is the 4-position contact configuration versus the original 5-position design. Compatibility depends on whether your application requires the 5th contact (sensor contact feature). If the sensor contact is not utilized in your design, the 73725-0110BLF is a direct substitute.

Q: What is the difference between the 73725-0010BLF and 73725-1010BLF?

A: Both parts are 5-position parametric equivalents with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The primary differences are insulation color (white for 73725-0010BLF, black for 73725-1010BLF) and environmental compliance status. The 73725-0010BLF offers ROHS3 Compliance and REACH Unaffected status, while the 73725-1010BLF is REACH Affected.

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

A: The 73725-1030BLF original part does not specify packaging information. All three substitute parts are available in Tube packaging: 73725-0110BLF (1580 pcs), 73725-0010BLF (2407 pcs), and 73725-1010BLF (688 pcs).

Q: What are the key parameters that determine substitution compatibility?

A: Substitution compatibility is determined by: connector type (USB-A receptacle), USB 2.0 specification compliance, through-hole right-angle mounting, solder termination, 2.5A current rating, -55°C to 85°C operating temperature range, shielded construction, gold contact finish, and copper alloy shell material. Contact count and insulation color are secondary characteristics that may vary between substitutes.

Q: Which substitute part should I select for new designs?

A: For new designs, select from the active production parts (73725-0110BLF, 73725-0010BLF, or 73725-1010BLF) based on your specific requirements. If 5-position contact configuration with sensor contact is required, choose between 73725-0010BLF or 73725-1010BLF. If 4-position configuration is acceptable, 73725-0110BLF is the manufacturer-recommended option. Consider environmental compliance requirements (RoHS, REACH) when making your final selection.
