Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution logic for the TE Connectivity 787082-2 is based on the following critical parameters that determine functional and mechanical compatibility:

Primary Compatibility Criteria:

• Connector type: Receptacle, female sockets
• Number of positions: 26
• Number of rows: 2
• Mounting configuration: Through hole, right angle
• Termination method: Solder
• Pitch and row spacing: 0.050 x 0.100 inches
• Electrical ratings: 1A current, 30V voltage
• Operating temperature: -55°C to 105°C
• Shielded configuration

Substitute Categories:

Direct Equivalent (5787082-2): Identical electrical and mechanical specifications with RoHS compliance and REACH unaffected status, differing only in regulatory compliance classification.

Similar Substitutes (N10226-5212PC, N10226-52B2PC): 26-position receptacle connectors with matching electrical ratings, solder termination, and shielded features. These parts operate within the same voltage and current parameters and support through-hole, right-angle mounting. Differences include connector series designation, flange feature specifications, and packaging format.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

5787082-2 (Direct Equivalent): This part is the primary substitute for the 787082-2. Both parts are manufactured by TE Connectivity AMP Connectors and share identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The 5787082-2 is RoHS compliant and REACH unaffected, making it suitable for applications with regulatory compliance requirements. Selection of this part is appropriate when RoHS compliance is mandated or when REACH-affected materials must be avoided.

N10226-5212PC and N10226-52B2PC (Similar Substitutes): These 3M connectors are functionally compatible 26-position receptacle connectors with solder termination and shielded construction. Both parts are RoHS compliant and REACH unaffected. The N10226-52B2PC includes board lock features matching the main part specification. These substitutes are suitable for applications where 3M connector series compatibility is acceptable and where panel mount configuration is compatible with the application design. The N10226-5212PC lacks board lock features and should be selected only when board lock functionality is not required.

All substitute parts maintain active product status and support the same electrical operating parameters within the D-Sub connector category.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 5787082-2 be used as a direct replacement for the 787082-2?

A: Yes. The 5787082-2 is a direct equivalent with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The primary difference is regulatory compliance status: the 5787082-2 is RoHS compliant and REACH unaffected, while the 787082-2 is RoHS non-compliant and REACH affected. Selection depends on application compliance requirements.

Q: What are the key differences between the TE Connectivity 787082-2 and the 3M N10226 series substitutes?

A: Both the 787082-2 and N10226 series connectors are 26-position receptacles with solder termination, gold contact finish, and shielded construction. The primary differences are manufacturer (TE Connectivity versus 3M), connector series designation (AMPLIMITE .050 III versus 102 Mini D Ribbon), and mounting configuration (board edge versus panel mount). The N10226-5212PC does not include board lock features, while the N10226-52B2PC does.

Q: Are the 3M N10226-5212PC and N10226-52B2PC interchangeable?

A: Both parts are 26-position receptacle connectors with identical electrical ratings and solder termination. The N10226-52B2PC includes board lock features, while the N10226-5212PC does not. Selection between these parts depends on whether board lock functionality is required for the application.

Q: What is the significance of the mounting type difference between board edge and panel mount?

A: Board edge mounting (787082-2, 5787082-2) positions the connector at the edge of a PCB for direct connection. Panel mount (N10226 series) positions the connector on a panel or enclosure surface. These mounting configurations are not interchangeable and require different PCB layout and mechanical design considerations.

Q: Do all substitute parts support the same current and voltage ratings?

A: The 787082-2 and 5787082-2 both specify 1A current rating and 30V voltage rating. The 3M N10226 series parts do not provide explicit current and voltage ratings in the available specifications. Verification of electrical ratings with 3M documentation is necessary before selecting N10226 series connectors for applications with specific current or voltage requirements.

Q: What packaging formats are available for these connectors?

A: The 787082-2 and 5787082-2 are supplied in tube packaging. The 3M N10226-5212PC and N10226-52B2PC are supplied in box packaging. Packaging format may affect inventory management, handling procedures, and component quantity per package.

Q: Are all substitute parts suitable for the full operating temperature range of -55°C to 105°C?

A: The 787082-2 and 5787082-2 explicitly specify -55°C to 105°C operating temperature range. The 3M N10226 series parts do not provide explicit operating temperature specifications in the available data. Confirmation of temperature rating compatibility with 3M technical documentation is required for applications operating outside standard temperature ranges.
