Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility is determined by the following critical parameters:

Pitch and Position Count: All substitute parts maintain 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch with 2 positions in a single row, ensuring mechanical compatibility with mating connectors and PCB layouts designed for the original part.
Mounting and Termination: All candidates are through-hole mounted with solder termination, preserving assembly process compatibility.
Fastening Type: Push-Pull fastening is maintained across all substitutes.
Flammability Rating: All substitute parts meet UL94 V-0 material flammability requirements.
Current and Voltage Ratings: Substitute parts must support the electrical requirements of the application. The original part is rated at 5A and 110V. Substitutes with lower current ratings (2.5A, 3A) represent derating and require application-level verification.
Operating Temperature Range: The original part operates from -65°C to 130°C. Substitutes with narrower ranges (-55°C to 105°C, -40°C to 105°C) may not be suitable for all thermal environments.
Contact Material and Finish: Variations in contact material (Phosphor Bronze, Brass, Copper Alloy) and finish (Tin, Gold) do not preclude substitution but affect electrical performance and environmental resistance.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Substitutes (Highest Compatibility)

826646-2, 826647-2, and 826926-2 (TE Connectivity AMPMODU Mod II series) are the primary substitutes. All three maintain the 5A current rating and -65°C lower temperature limit of the original part. 826646-2 and 826926-2 are preferred for applications requiring the full -65°C to 105°C operating range. Both 826646-2 and 826926-2 are RoHS Compliant or ROHS3 Compliant, supporting regulatory requirements. 826647-2 offers identical electrical performance with a slightly shorter overall contact length (0.437" vs. 0.465"), which may require PCB layout verification.

Secondary Substitutes (Conditional Compatibility)

MTLW-102-07-F-S-280 (Samtec Flex Stack, MTLW series) supports 5.2A per contact and operates from -55°C to 125°C, exceeding the upper temperature limit of the original part. This part is suitable for applications requiring extended high-temperature performance. The reduced insulation height (0.060" vs. 0.100") requires mechanical clearance verification on the PCB.

929450-01-02-I (3M 929 series) is a breakaway header with gold-plated contacts. The current rating is reduced to 2.5A, limiting its use to lower-power applications. The operating temperature range (-40°C to 105°C) does not support the full lower temperature range of the original part.

Not Recommended

2302-6211TB (3M 2300 series) has a reduced current rating of 3A and is RoHS non-compliant, making it unsuitable for new designs requiring RoHS compliance. The operating temperature range (-55°C to 105°C) does not support the -65°C lower limit of the original part.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can I use a substitute part with a lower current rating than the original?

A: Substitutes with lower current ratings (2.5A or 3A versus 5A) represent electrical derating. Use is conditional on application requirements. If the circuit draws less than the substitute's rated current, the part is acceptable. If the circuit requires the full 5A capacity, only substitutes rated at 5A or higher are suitable.

Q: What is the impact of different contact finishes (Tin vs. Gold)?

A: Contact finish affects corrosion resistance and electrical performance. Tin-plated contacts (original part, 826926-2) are suitable for standard environments. Gold-plated contacts (826646-2, 826647-2, 929450-01-02-I, MTLW-102-07-F-S-280, 2302-6211TB) provide enhanced corrosion resistance and lower contact resistance, beneficial in high-reliability or harsh environments. Both finishes are electrically compatible with standard mating connectors.

Q: Are there mechanical compatibility concerns with different overall contact lengths?

A: Overall contact length variations (0.430" to 0.538") reflect differences in mating and post lengths. These variations do not affect compatibility with standard 0.100" pitch mating connectors, as the critical dimension is the mating contact length. However, PCB layout and clearance to adjacent components should be verified, particularly for parts with longer overall lengths (929450-01-02-I, 2302-6211TB) or shorter insulation heights (MTLW-102-07-F-S-280).

Q: Which substitute is best for high-temperature applications?

A: MTLW-102-07-F-S-280 operates to 125°C, exceeding the original part's 130°C upper limit by 5°C. For applications requiring operation at or above 125°C, this part is the only suitable substitute. For applications within the original range (-65°C to 130°C), no substitute fully matches the thermal envelope; TE Connectivity AMPMODU Mod II parts (826646-2, 826647-2, 826926-2) are limited to 105°C.

Q: What is the significance of RoHS compliance status?

A: RoHS Compliant and ROHS3 Compliant parts (826646-2, 826647-2, 826926-2, MTLW-102-07-F-S-280) meet European Union Restriction of Hazardous Substances regulations. 2302-6211TB is RoHS non-compliant and is unsuitable for applications subject to RoHS requirements or for export to regulated markets. The original part is RoHS Compliant.

Q: Can I use a breakaway header substitute in place of a standard header?

A: Breakaway headers (826646-2, 826647-2, 826926-2, 929450-01-02-I) feature segmented insulation allowing individual position removal. This feature does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility with standard mating connectors. Breakaway headers are backward-compatible with applications designed for standard headers.

Q: What is the impact of insulation material differences?

A: The original part uses generic Thermoplastic insulation. Substitutes use Polybutylene Terephthalate (PBT), Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP), or Thermoplastic with glass filling. These materials offer improved thermal stability and mechanical strength compared to unfilled thermoplastic. Material differences do not affect electrical compatibility but may influence mechanical durability and thermal performance in demanding environments.
