Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution compatibility for the TE Connectivity 787362-5 is determined by strict equivalence across all electrical and mechanical parameters. The substitute part 5787362-5 qualifies as a direct equivalent based on the following criteria:

Electrical Parameters (Must Match): Current Rating (1A), Voltage Rating (30V), Contact Type (Signal), Contact Material (Phosphor Bronze), Contact Finish (Gold)

Mechanical Parameters (Must Match): Connector Style (D-Type), Connector Type (Receptacle, Female Sockets), Number of Positions (50), Number of Rows (2), Shell Size and Connector Layout (0.050 Pitch x 0.100 Row to Row), Mounting Type (Board Edge, Through Hole, Right Angle), Termination (Solder), Shell Material and Finish (Steel, Nickel Plated), Flange Feature (Housing/Shell 4-40), Backset Spacing (0.146" / 3.71mm)

Environmental Parameters (Must Match): Operating Temperature Range (-55°C to 105°C), Material Flammability Rating (UL94 V-0), Dielectric Material (Thermoplastic), Moisture Sensitivity Level (1 - Unlimited)

Series Designation (Must Match): AMPLIMITE .050 III

All parameters listed above are identical between the main part and substitute part, confirming full interchangeability for component selection and PCB assembly applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the 787362-5 and 5787362-5 are active products from TE Connectivity AMP Connectors and are fully interchangeable for D-Type receptacle connector applications requiring 50-position, female socket, right-angle board edge mounting with solder termination.

Compliance Consideration: The substitute part 5787362-5 carries ROHS3 compliance status, while the main part 787362-5 is RoHS non-compliant. For applications subject to RoHS3 regulatory requirements, the substitute part 5787362-5 is the appropriate selection. For applications without RoHS3 mandates, either part satisfies the electrical and mechanical requirements identically.

Inventory and Availability: The substitute part 5787362-5 maintains higher inventory availability (1257 units) compared to the main part (787 units), supporting supply chain continuity for high-volume production requirements.

Tariff Classification: Minor differences exist in HTSUS classification (8536.69.4040 for 787362-5 versus 8536.69.4030 for 5787362-5), reflecting potential differences in tariff treatment for import/export purposes.

All other electrical, mechanical, and environmental specifications are identical, ensuring direct substitution without design modification or PCB layout changes.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are the 787362-5 and 5787362-5 connectors mechanically interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical mechanical specifications including 50-position configuration, 0.050 pitch x 0.100 row-to-row spacing, right-angle board edge mounting, solder termination, and 0.146" backset spacing. PCB footprints and mounting hole patterns are identical.

Q: What is the primary difference between these two part numbers?

A: The primary difference is RoHS compliance status. The 5787362-5 is ROHS3 compliant, while the 787362-5 is RoHS non-compliant. All electrical and mechanical parameters are identical.

Q: Can I use the 5787362-5 as a direct replacement for the 787362-5 in existing designs?
