Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the TE Connectivity 745052-2 are identified based on strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical Equivalence Criteria:

• Connector style (D-Sub)
• Connector type (Plug, Male Pins)
• Number of positions (15)
• Number of rows (2)
• Shell size and connector layout (2 DA, A)
• Current rating (6A)
• Voltage rating (125V)
• Contact type (Signal)
• Contact material (Brass)
• Contact finish (Gold)
• Dielectric material (Polyester)

Mechanical Equivalence Criteria:

• Mounting type (Through Hole)
• Termination method (Solder)
• Flange feature (Housing/Shell 4-40)
• Operating temperature range (-55°C to 105°C)
• Material flammability rating (UL94 V-0)
• Color (Black)

Environmental & Compliance Criteria:

• Moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1 - Unlimited)
• REACH affected status
• ECCN classification (EAR99)
• HTSUS code (8536.69.4040)

The substitute part 5745052-2 maintains all electrical and mechanical parameters identical to the main part. Differences in RoHS compliance status and contact finish thickness specification do not affect functional interchangeability in applications where the main part 745052-2 is currently deployed.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The substitute part 5745052-2 provides functional equivalence to the main part 745052-2 across all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. Both connectors maintain identical specifications for connector style, position count, mounting configuration, termination method, current and voltage ratings, operating temperature range, and material flammability certification.

RoHS Compliance Consideration: The substitute part 5745052-2 carries RoHS Compliant status, whereas the main part 745052-2 is RoHS non-compliant. For applications subject to RoHS regulatory requirements, the substitute part 5745052-2 is the appropriate selection. For legacy systems or applications without RoHS mandates, both parts remain functionally equivalent.

Inventory Availability: The substitute part 5745052-2 maintains higher inventory availability (1507 pieces) compared to the main part 745052-2 (837 pieces), supporting supply chain continuity for high-volume production requirements.

Contact Finish Specification: The substitute part 5745052-2 specifies flash gold contact finish thickness, whereas the main part 745052-2 does not provide this specification detail. Both maintain gold contact finish for signal integrity and corrosion resistance in the operating temperature range of -55°C to 105°C.

Both parts are active in production status and carry identical REACH affected and ECCN classifications, confirming regulatory alignment for international distribution.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 5745052-2 substitute directly replace the 745052-2 in existing circuit board designs?

A: Yes. The 5745052-2 maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications across connector style, position count, shell size, mounting type, termination method, current rating, voltage rating, operating temperature range, and material flammability rating. Direct substitution is supported without circuit design modification.

Q: What is the difference between the RoHS compliance status of these two parts?

A: The main part 745052-2 is RoHS non-compliant, while the substitute part 5745052-2 is RoHS Compliant. For applications requiring RoHS compliance, the 5745052-2 is the appropriate selection. Both parts are functionally equivalent in electrical and mechanical performance.

Q: Are both connectors packaged identically?

A: Yes. Both the 745052-2 and 5745052-2 are packaged in tubes, maintaining identical packaging specifications for handling, storage, and assembly line integration.

Q: What does the contact finish specification "Flash" mean on the 5745052-2?

A: Flash gold finish refers to a thin electroplated gold layer applied to the brass contact material. Both parts maintain gold contact finish for signal integrity and corrosion resistance. The flash specification on the 5745052-2 indicates the thickness classification of the gold plating.

Q: Do both connectors support the same current and voltage ratings?

A: Yes. Both the 745052-2 and 5745052-2 are rated for 6A current and 125V voltage, with identical operating temperature ranges of -55°C to 105°C and UL94 V-0 material flammability certification.

Q: What is the significance of the MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity level?

A: MSL 1 indicates the lowest moisture sensitivity classification, meaning the connector requires no special moisture control during storage, handling, or assembly. Both parts carry this specification, supporting standard manufacturing and storage procedures.

Q: Are there any regulatory or export restrictions on these connectors?

A: Both parts carry identical ECCN classification (EAR99) and HTSUS code (8536.69.4040), indicating equivalent regulatory treatment for export and international distribution. Both are REACH Affected, requiring compliance with REACH chemical substance regulations.
