Amphenol ICC 76385-405 Rectangular Connector Header - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Amphenol ICC 76385-405 is a vertical rectangular connector header designed for through-hole mounting applications. This component features a 10-position, 2-row configuration with 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch spacing, suitable for board-to-cable/wire connections. The part is classified as obsolete, necessitating identification of active equivalent components for ongoing design and procurement requirements. The 76385-405LF serves as the direct active substitute, maintaining core electrical and mechanical compatibility while offering improved compliance status.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The 76385-405LF qualifies as a direct substitute for the 76385-405 based on the following critical parameters:

• Connector Configuration: Both parts maintain identical 10-position, 2-row header architecture with 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch spacing
• Mechanical Compatibility: Matching mounting type (through hole), shrouding design (shrouded - 2 wall), contact shape (square), and overall contact dimensions
• Electrical Interface: Identical contact type (male pin), termination method (solder), and fastening mechanism (friction lock)
• Physical Dimensions: Equivalent contact lengths (mating: 0.197", post: 0.134", overall: 0.411") and insulation height (0.368")
• Material Specification: Both utilize copper alloy contacts with thermoplastic, glass-filled insulation rated UL94 V-0
• Series Designation: Both components belong to the Dubox™ series

The primary differences between these parts relate to product status (obsolete vs. active), contact finish specifications, compliance certifications, and packaging format, which do not affect functional interchangeability in equivalent applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 76385-405LF is the appropriate selection for new designs and procurement activities. The main part (76385-405) is classified as obsolete, making the 76385-405LF the active equivalent within the Amphenol ICC Dubox™ series.

Key compliance advantages of the 76385-405LF include RoHS compliance status and REACH affected designation, which align with current regulatory requirements for electronic components in most markets. The substitute part maintains full mechanical and electrical compatibility with the original specification while offering improved environmental compliance.

The contact finish transition from Tin-Lead to Tin reflects industry-wide compliance with lead-free manufacturing standards. Both parts maintain UL94 V-0 flammability certification and identical moisture sensitivity levels, ensuring equivalent performance in standard operating environments.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 76385-405LF be used as a direct replacement for the 76385-405 in existing assemblies?

A: Yes. The 76385-405LF maintains identical mechanical dimensions, contact configuration, pitch spacing, and mounting characteristics. The connector header interface remains fully compatible for board-to-cable/wire applications.

Q: What is the significance of the contact finish change from Tin-Lead to Tin?

A: The shift to pure Tin plating reflects compliance with lead-free manufacturing standards. Both finishes provide equivalent electrical conductivity and corrosion resistance for standard applications. The Tin finish on the 76385-405LF meets RoHS requirements while maintaining contact reliability.

Q: Are there any thermal or electrical rating differences between these parts?

A: The 76385-405LF provides specified operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 125°C) and current rating (3A), whereas the original part does not include these specifications in the provided data. Both parts are designed for identical connector applications and maintain equivalent performance characteristics within standard operating conditions.

Q: What packaging format is available for the 76385-405LF?

A: The 76385-405LF is supplied in bulk packaging, compared to the original part's unspecified packaging format. Bulk packaging is standard for high-volume procurement and assembly operations.

Q: Does the RoHS compliance status affect compatibility?

A: No. RoHS compliance is a manufacturing and supply chain requirement, not a functional characteristic. The 76385-405LF's RoHS compliant status ensures regulatory compliance for end products without affecting the connector's electrical or mechanical performance in equivalent applications.
