Amphenol ICC 75915-320 Rectangular Connector - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Amphenol ICC 75915-320 is a 20-position receptacle connector with 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch, designed for board-to-board applications. This connector features gold-plated mating contacts, through-hole solder termination, and push-pull fastening. The part is classified as obsolete, making equivalent substitutes necessary for ongoing procurement and new designs. Substitute parts maintain the core electrical and mechanical specifications while offering improved availability and compliance status.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type & Contact Type: Must be Receptacle with Female Socket contacts
• Number of Positions: Must be 20 positions
• Pitch - Mating: Must be 0.100" (2.54mm)
• Style: Must be Board to Board
• Mounting Type: Must be Through Hole
• Termination: Must be Solder
• Contact Finish - Mating: Must be Gold
• Fastening Type: Must be Push-Pull
• Material Flammability Rating: Must be UL94 V-0

Direct Equivalent (Same Series):

• 75915-320LF: Amphenol ICC Dubox™ series. Identical specifications to the main part. Active product status with improved RoHS compliance and higher inventory availability.

Cross-Manufacturer Equivalent (Different Series):

• 2-215299-0: TE Connectivity AMPMODU HV-100 series. Meets all critical substitution parameters. Active product status with ROHS3 compliance. Minor variations in contact post length (0.122" vs. 0.114") and insulation color (Green vs. Blue) do not affect functional compatibility.

Non-Equivalent Part (Listed for Reference Only):

• 76383-302LF: Amphenol ICC Dubox™ series Header connector. Does not qualify as a substitute due to different connector type (Header vs. Receptacle), contact type (Male Pin vs. Female Socket), number of positions (4 vs. 20), and style (Board to Cable/Wire vs. Board to Board).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For Obsolete Part Replacement: The 75915-320LF is the primary substitute. As an active product within the same Dubox™ series from Amphenol ICC, it provides direct form-fit-function compatibility with identical mechanical and electrical specifications. The 75915-320LF offers improved RoHS compliance status and significantly higher inventory availability (6812 units vs. 1071 units).

For Cross-Manufacturer Substitution: The TE Connectivity 2-215299-0 qualifies as a functional equivalent when Amphenol ICC parts are unavailable. This part maintains all critical substitution parameters and carries ROHS3 compliance. The kinked pin termination variant and slightly longer contact post (0.122" vs. 0.114") are compatible with standard PCB through-hole designs. Insulation color difference (Green vs. Blue) is cosmetic and does not affect electrical performance.

Compliance Considerations: Both substitute parts meet UL94 V-0 flammability requirements. The 75915-320LF and 2-215299-0 both achieve RoHS compliance, addressing regulatory requirements that the obsolete 75915-320 does not meet.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 75915-320LF be used as a direct replacement for 75915-320? A: Yes. The 75915-320LF is a direct equivalent with identical connector type, contact type, position count, pitch, mounting style, and termination method. The primary difference is product status (Active vs. Obsolete) and improved RoHS compliance.

Q: What are the key differences between 75915-320LF and 2-215299-0? A: Both parts meet all critical substitution parameters. The 75915-320LF is from Amphenol ICC (same manufacturer as the original), while 2-215299-0 is from TE Connectivity. Minor differences include contact post length (0.114" vs. 0.122"), contact finish thickness (30.0µin vs. 31.5µin), and insulation color (Blue vs. Green). These differences do not affect functional compatibility in standard board-to-board applications.

Q: Is the kinked pin termination on 2-215299-0 compatible with standard PCB designs? A: Yes. Kinked pin termination is a standard variant for through-hole solder connections and is compatible with conventional PCB hole patterns designed for 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch receptacles.

Q: Why is 76383-302LF not listed as a substitute? A: The 76383-302LF is a Header connector with male pins designed for board-to-cable/wire connections. It differs fundamentally from the 75915-320 Receptacle with female sockets designed for board-to-board connections. Position count (4 vs. 20) and connector style make it incompatible.

Q: What is the impact of insulation color difference between substitutes? A: Insulation color (Blue vs. Green) is a cosmetic specification with no impact on electrical performance or mechanical compatibility. Both colors meet UL94 V-0 flammability requirements.

Q: Are there any thermal or electrical rating differences between the substitutes? A: Operating temperature and current/voltage ratings are not specified in the provided data for any of these parts. Substitution is based on mechanical compatibility and contact specifications. Verify application-specific requirements independently.

Q: What is the MSL rating for these connectors? A: All three parts carry MSL 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions for storage or handling.
