TE Connectivity 747852-4 D-Sub Receptacle Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The TE Connectivity 747852-4 is a 9-position D-Sub receptacle connector with female sockets, right-angle through-hole mounting, and solder termination. This connector is part of the AMPLIMITE HD-20 series and features a steel tin-plated shell with gold-plated contacts rated for 6A at 125V operation across a temperature range of -55°C to 105°C.

The 747852-4 carries an obsolete product status. Direct substitutes with active product status are available that maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications while offering improved availability and compliance certifications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for D-Sub receptacle connectors is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical Compatibility Parameters:

• Connector type (Receptacle, Female Sockets)
• Number of positions (9)
• Number of rows (2)
• Shell size and layout (1 / DE, E)
• Current rating (6A)
• Voltage rating (125V)
• Contact finish and thickness (Gold, 30.0µin)
• Operating temperature range (-55°C to 105°C)

Mechanical Compatibility Parameters:

• Mounting type (Through Hole, Right Angle)
• Termination method (Solder)
• Shell material and finish (Steel, Tin Plated)
• Flange feature (Housing/Shell 4-40)
• Contact material (Phosphor Bronze)
• Dielectric material (Thermoplastic)
• Features (Board Lock, Ground Strap)

Compliance Parameters:

• Material flammability rating (UL94 V-0)
• Moisture sensitivity level (1 / Unlimited)

The substitute parts 5747852-4 and 6-747852-7 maintain complete equivalence across all electrical, mechanical, and compliance parameters. Differences exist only in product status (Active vs. Obsolete) and packaging format (Tube and Bulk vs. standard packaging).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

5747852-4 Selection Criteria: The 5747852-4 is functionally equivalent to the 747852-4 across all electrical and mechanical parameters. The primary distinction is product status: 5747852-4 carries Active status with RoHS Compliant certification, whereas 747852-4 is Obsolete and RoHS non-compliant. The 5747852-4 is supplied in Tube packaging. This part is suitable for new designs and applications requiring RoHS compliance.

6-747852-7 Selection Criteria: The 6-747852-7 is functionally equivalent to the 747852-4 across all electrical and mechanical parameters. This part carries Active product status with RoHS Compliant certification. The 6-747852-7 is supplied in Bulk packaging. This part is suitable for high-volume applications and new designs requiring RoHS compliance.

Compliance Advantage: Both substitute parts (5747852-4 and 6-747852-7) provide RoHS Compliant status, addressing regulatory requirements that the obsolete 747852-4 does not meet. Selection between the two substitutes depends on packaging requirements: Tube packaging for 5747852-4 or Bulk packaging for 6-747852-7.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 5747852-4 or 6-747852-7 be used as direct replacements for the 747852-4?

A: Yes. Both substitute parts maintain complete electrical and mechanical equivalence to the 747852-4. All critical parameters including connector type, position count, shell size, mounting configuration, termination method, current and voltage ratings, operating temperature range, and contact specifications are identical.

Q: What is the difference between the 5747852-4 and 6-747852-7?

A: The primary difference is packaging format. The 5747852-4 is supplied in Tube packaging, while the 6-747852-7 is supplied in Bulk packaging. All electrical, mechanical, and compliance specifications are identical between these two parts.

Q: Why should I use a substitute part instead of the 747852-4?

A: The 747852-4 carries Obsolete product status, which indicates limited or discontinued availability. The substitute parts 5747852-4 and 6-747852-7 are Active products with confirmed inventory availability. Additionally, both substitutes carry RoHS Compliant certification, whereas the 747852-4 is RoHS non-compliant.

Q: Are there any compatibility concerns when substituting these parts?

A: No compatibility concerns exist. The substitute parts are designed for identical applications and mounting configurations. PCB footprints, connector mating interfaces, and electrical performance are equivalent.

Q: What packaging option should I select?

A: Selection depends on your procurement and assembly requirements. The 5747852-4 in Tube packaging is suitable for standard component handling and smaller quantity orders. The 6-747852-7 in Bulk packaging is optimized for high-volume manufacturing environments.

Q: Are the RoHS compliance differences significant?

A: RoHS compliance is significant for applications subject to regulatory requirements in the European Union and other jurisdictions with equivalent regulations. The substitute parts (5747852-4 and 6-747852-7) meet RoHS requirements, while the 747852-4 does not. For new designs and regulated applications, RoHS-compliant substitutes are required.

Q: Can I mix the 747852-4 with the substitute parts in the same assembly?

A: While electrical and mechanical compatibility exists, mixing parts with different RoHS compliance statuses in the same assembly may create regulatory documentation and traceability complications. Consistent use of either the obsolete part or the RoHS-compliant substitutes is recommended for assembly consistency.
