Amphenol ICC 76382-322 Rectangular Connector - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Amphenol ICC 76382-322 is a shrouded right-angle header connector with 22 positions at 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch, designed for through-hole board-to-cable/wire applications. This connector features male pins with gold-plated mating contacts and tin-lead post finishes, housed in a polyester glass-filled insulation body rated UL94 V-0.

The 76382-322 carries an obsolete product status. Identifying equivalent substitute parts is necessary to maintain design continuity, ensure supply chain availability, and support ongoing production or maintenance requirements for systems utilizing this connector.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 76382-322 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Connector type (Header)
• Contact type (Male Pin)
• Number of positions (22)
• Pitch specification (0.100" / 2.54mm)
• Mounting configuration (Through Hole, Right Angle)
• Shrouding design (Shrouded - 4 Wall)
• Mating contact finish (Gold, GXT™)
• Insulation material and flammability rating (Polyester, Glass Filled; UL94 V-0)
• Series designation (Dubox™)

The 76382-322LF qualifies as a direct substitute based on full alignment with these parameters. Variations in post finish specifications, operating temperature ratings, current ratings, RoHS compliance status, and packaging format do not affect functional interchangeability in applications where the main part was originally specified.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 76382-322LF is the direct equivalent substitute for the obsolete 76382-322. Both connectors maintain identical mechanical and electrical interface specifications, ensuring pin-for-pin compatibility in existing PCB layouts and mating connector assemblies.

The 76382-322LF carries active product status, providing assured long-term availability and supply chain continuity. The substitute part achieves RoHS compliance, meeting current regulatory requirements for new designs and production environments subject to RoHS directives. The "LF" designation indicates lead-free post finish (tin instead of tin-lead), which aligns with modern manufacturing standards while maintaining functional equivalence.

Selection of the 76382-322LF is appropriate for applications requiring the specified connector interface, regardless of whether the original design utilized the obsolete 76382-322 or new designs require this connector category.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 76382-322LF be used as a direct replacement for the 76382-322 in existing assemblies?

A: Yes. The 76382-322LF is functionally equivalent to the 76382-322. Both connectors share identical mating interface specifications, pin count, pitch, mounting configuration, and shrouding design. The connectors are mechanically and electrically interchangeable in all applications where the original part was specified.

Q: What is the significance of the "LF" suffix in the 76382-322LF part number?

A: The "LF" designation indicates lead-free post finish. The 76382-322LF uses tin plating on the solder posts, whereas the original 76382-322 used tin-lead plating. This change reflects compliance with RoHS directives and modern manufacturing practices. The mating contact finish (gold) remains identical in both versions.

Q: Are there differences in operating temperature or current rating between these parts?

A: The 76382-322LF specifies an operating temperature range of -40°C to 125°C and a current rating of 3A per contact. The original 76382-322 does not provide these specifications in the available documentation. These parameters do not affect substitution eligibility, as the connector interface and mechanical compatibility remain unchanged.

Q: What packaging options are available for the 76382-322LF?

A: The 76382-322LF is supplied in tube packaging. The original 76382-322 packaging format is not specified. Packaging format does not affect connector functionality or interchangeability; it pertains only to order quantity, handling, and storage considerations.

Q: Is the 76382-322LF RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The 76382-322LF is RoHS compliant. The original 76382-322 is RoHS non-compliant. For applications or supply chains requiring RoHS compliance, the 76382-322LF is the appropriate selection.

Q: Are both connectors part of the same Dubox™ series?

A: Yes. Both the 76382-322 and 76382-322LF belong to the Amphenol ICC Dubox™ series, confirming design family consistency and compatibility.
