7834-0006PR Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The 7834-0006PR is a 34-position ribbon cable DIP header connector manufactured by 3M, designed for through-hole mounting with IDC (Insulation Displacement Contact) termination. This connector features a dual-row configuration with 0.100" (2.54mm) board-side pitch and 0.050" (1.27mm) cable pitch, supporting wire gauges from 26 AWG to 30 AWG. The product is classified as obsolete, making identification of functionally equivalent alternatives essential for ongoing system maintenance and new design implementations where legacy compatibility is required.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 7834-0006PR is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type: Ribbon Cable, DIP Header (exact match required)
• Number of Positions: 34 (exact match required)
• Number of Rows: 2 (exact match required)
• Cable Pitch: 0.050" (1.27mm) (exact match required)
• Board-Side Pitch: 0.100" (2.54mm) (exact match required)
• Row Spacing: 0.100" (2.54mm) (exact match required)
• Mounting Type: Through Hole (exact match required)
• Cable Termination: IDC (exact match required)
• Features: Feed Through (exact match required)
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited) (exact match required)

The following parts meet all substitution criteria:

1. AWLP 34/3,2-G (Assmann WSW Components) — Direct equivalent with active product status
2. 1-746610-8 (TE Connectivity AMP Connectors) — Manufacturer-recommended substitute with active product status

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both substitute parts satisfy the core electrical and mechanical requirements for direct replacement of the 7834-0006PR. Selection between alternatives should be based on the following factors:

AWLP 34/3,2-G (Assmann WSW Components) provides the closest physical match, maintaining identical color (gray) and contact finish (gold) to the original 3M connector. This part carries ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, with active product availability.

1-746610-8 (TE Connectivity AMP Connectors) is the manufacturer-recommended substitute, offering active product status with ROHS3 compliance. This connector features tin contact finish and black color, representing a functional equivalent with different material specifications. Wire gauge support extends to 26-30 AWG solid, providing broader compatibility with solid conductor cables.

Both parts maintain identical pitch specifications, row configuration, and IDC termination methodology, ensuring mechanical and electrical interchangeability within the specified parameter constraints.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the AWLP 34/3,2-G be used as a direct replacement for the 7834-0006PR?

A: Yes. The AWLP 34/3,2-G meets all critical substitution parameters: 34-position, dual-row configuration, 0.050" cable pitch, 0.100" board-side pitch, through-hole mounting, IDC termination, and feed-through design. Physical appearance is identical, with matching gray color and gold contact finish.

Q: What is the difference between the 1-746610-8 and the AWLP 34/3,2-G?

A: Both connectors are functionally equivalent for the 7834-0006PR application. The primary differences are contact finish (tin vs. gold), connector color (black vs. gray), and wire gauge specifications. The 1-746610-8 supports 26-30 AWG solid conductors, while the AWLP 34/3,2-G does not specify wire gauge details.

Q: Is the 7834-0006PR still available?

A: The 7834-0006PR is classified as obsolete. However, 1,139 pieces are reported in current inventory. For new designs or long-term supply assurance, the active alternatives AWLP 34/3,2-G or 1-746610-8 are recommended.

Q: Will the black connector (1-746610-8) work in applications designed for the gray connector (7834-0006PR)?

A: Yes, from an electrical and mechanical standpoint. Color difference is cosmetic and does not affect functionality. Verify that color coding is not a requirement in your application documentation.

Q: Are both substitute parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both AWLP 34/3,2-G and 1-746610-8 carry ROHS3 compliance certification.
