Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the 770007-2 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Manufacturer: TE Connectivity AMP Connectors
• Series: Universal MATE-N-LOK II
• Pin or Socket: Split Pin
• Contact Termination: Crimp
• Wire Gauge: 14-20 AWG
• Contact Finish: Gold
• Contact Finish Thickness: 30.0µin (0.76µm)
• Base Product Number: 770007
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)

The substitute part 1-770007-0 maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications to the main part 770007-2. The primary distinction is product status: 1-770007-0 is active and available in production quantities, whereas 770007-2 is obsolete. Both components share the same base product number (770007) and are functionally interchangeable within the Universal MATE-N-LOK II connector system.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The part 1-770007-0 is the direct equivalent substitute for 770007-2. Selection of 1-770007-0 is supported by the following engineering criteria:

Product Status: The substitute part 1-770007-0 maintains active production status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity. The original part 770007-2 is obsolete and subject to discontinuation.

Compliance Certification: Both parts maintain identical ROHS3 compliance status, satisfying regulatory requirements for restricted substance limitations. Moisture sensitivity level remains constant at MSL 1 (Unlimited), indicating no special storage or handling requirements.

Electrical and Mechanical Equivalence: All functional parameters—wire gauge rating, contact termination method, finish specification, and finish thickness—are identical between the main part and substitute. These parameters determine connector performance within the Universal MATE-N-LOK II system.

Packaging Consideration: The substitute part is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) packaging. Applications requiring alternative packaging formats should be evaluated against available inventory and procurement lead times.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 1-770007-0 be used as a direct replacement for 770007-2 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The parts are electrically and mechanically equivalent. Both are split pin contacts rated for 14-20 AWG wire gauges with identical gold plating specifications and crimp termination. They are interchangeable within Universal MATE-N-LOK II connector assemblies.

Q: What is the difference between 770007-2 and 1-770007-0?

A: The primary difference is product status. The 770007-2 is obsolete, while 1-770007-0 is active. The substitute part is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) packaging. All electrical and mechanical specifications are identical.

Q: Why is 770007-2 listed as obsolete?

A: Obsolescence is a manufacturer designation indicating the part is no longer in active production. The active equivalent 1-770007-0 should be used for new procurements and design updates.

Q: Are there any compatibility concerns when switching from 770007-2 to 1-770007-0?

A: No compatibility concerns exist. Both parts share the same base product number (770007) and series designation (Universal MATE-N-LOK II). They are designed for use in identical connector applications.

Q: What does the Cut Tape (CT) packaging format mean?

A: Cut Tape packaging supplies components on continuous carrier tape that has been cut to specific lengths. This format is standard for high-volume production and automated assembly processes.

Q: Are the RoHS and MSL ratings the same for both parts?

A: Yes. Both parts are ROHS3 compliant and carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) rating, indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions during storage or handling.

Q: Can I use 1-770007-0 in applications originally designed for 770007-2?

A: Yes. The substitute part meets all electrical and mechanical requirements of the original design. No design modifications are necessary.
