Engineering Selection Recommendations
Primary Substitutes (TE Connectivity 292303 Series):
The TE Connectivity 292303 series parts (292303-1, 292303-4, 292303-5, 292303-6, 292303-8) are direct parametric equivalents to the 787616-1. All variants maintain identical mechanical mounting specifications, electrical ratings, and environmental operating ranges. These parts are in active product status with RoHS compliance certifications (ROHS3 Compliant or RoHS Compliant). The 292303 series is recommended as the primary substitution path due to manufacturer continuity and full specification alignment.
Secondary Substitute (TE Connectivity 1775545-1):
The 1775545-1 is an active TE Connectivity part with identical mechanical and mounting characteristics. However, electrical specifications (current rating, voltage rating, and mating cycles) are not provided in the available data. This part is RoHS Compliant and REACH Unaffected. Selection of this part requires confirmation of electrical performance requirements against application specifications.
Alternative Manufacturer Substitutes (EDAC Inc. 690A Series):
The EDAC Inc. 690A series connectors (690A104-123-020, 690A104-123-021, 690A104-123-220) provide parametric equivalence with enhanced current ratings (1.5A versus 1A per contact). These parts are active, ROHS3 Compliant, and maintain the required USB-A receptacle configuration with through-hole right-angle mounting. Operating temperature ranges vary by variant: 690A104-123-020 and 690A104-123-021 support -40°C to 85°C, while 690A104-123-220 operates within -20°C to 60°C. Selection of EDAC parts is appropriate when higher current capacity is required or when TE Connectivity 292303 series availability is constrained.
Compliance Considerations:
The original 787616-1 is RoHS non-compliant. All recommended substitute parts are RoHS Compliant or ROHS3 Compliant, supporting transition to current regulatory requirements. REACH status varies across substitutes; TE Connectivity 292303 series parts are REACH Unaffected, while the 1775545-1 is also REACH Unaffected. All parts maintain UL94 V-0 flammability ratings and are classified under ECCN EAR99 with HTSUS code 8536.69.4040.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Can the 292303 series parts directly replace the 787616-1 without PCB redesign?
A: Yes. The 292303 series maintains identical through-hole, right-angle mounting geometry and solder termination. No PCB layout modifications are required for mechanical or electrical compatibility.
Q: What is the difference between 292303-1, 292303-4, 292303-5, 292303-6, and 292303-8?
A: All five variants share identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Differences are limited to packaging format (Tube or Bulk) and insulation color (Black or Natural). Selection between variants depends on procurement packaging requirements and visual identification preferences. Electrical performance and mounting characteristics are equivalent across all variants.
Q: Are the EDAC 690A series connectors suitable for applications requiring the full -55°C to 85°C operating range?
A: The EDAC 690A104-123-020 and 690A104-123-021 support -40°C to 85°C, which does not cover the full lower temperature range of the 787616-1 (-55°C). The 690A104-123-220 operates only within -20°C to 60°C. For applications requiring -55°C operation, TE Connectivity 292303 series parts are required.
Q: What is the significance of the 1.5A current rating on EDAC parts versus the 1A rating on TE Connectivity parts?
A: The EDAC 690A series provides higher current capacity per contact (1.5A versus 1A). This represents a design enhancement and does not prevent substitution in applications rated for 1A. Applications requiring current levels between 1A and 1.5A per contact can utilize EDAC parts as upgrades.
Q: Is the 1775545-1 a suitable substitute if electrical specifications are not critical to the application?
A: The 1775545-1 is mechanically and functionally compatible with the 787616-1. However, the absence of specified electrical parameters (current rating, voltage rating, mating cycles) in available documentation requires verification against application requirements before selection. Contact the manufacturer or authorized distributor for complete electrical specifications.
Q: What packaging options are available for the substitute parts?
A: TE Connectivity 292303 series parts are available in Tube (292303-1, 292303-5) and Bulk (1-292303-2, 292303-4, 292303-6, 292303-8) packaging. The 1775545-1 packaging format is not specified. EDAC 690A series packaging is not specified. Packaging selection should align with procurement and inventory management requirements.
Q: Are all substitute parts compliant with current RoHS regulations?
A: Yes. All recommended substitute parts are RoHS Compliant or ROHS3 Compliant. The original 787616-1 is RoHS non-compliant. Substitution with any recommended part supports compliance with current regulatory requirements.
Q: Can the 292303-5 with Natural insulation color be used interchangeably with 292303-6 with Black insulation color?
A: Yes. Insulation color is a visual identification feature only and does not affect electrical or mechanical performance. Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical and are fully interchangeable.
