TE Connectivity AMP Connectors 794609-1 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors 794609-1 is a pin contact for rectangular connectors in the Micro MATE-N-LOK series. This stamped pin contact is designed for crimp termination with wire gauges 26-30 AWG and features a tin-lead contact finish. The part is currently active in production with 893 pieces available in new original inventory.

Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters are maintained across the same connector series, allowing for interchangeability in applications where specific compliance or packaging requirements differ from the primary part number.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution between 794609-1 and 1-794609-0 is valid based on the following matching parameters:

Electrical and Mechanical Compatibility:

• Identical series designation: Micro MATE-N-LOK
• Identical connector category: Rectangular Connectors
• Identical contact type: Stamped pin
• Identical termination method: Crimp
• Identical wire gauge range: 26-30 AWG
• Identical contact finish thickness: 100.0µin (2.54µm)
• Identical moisture sensitivity level: MSL 1 (Unlimited)
• Identical product status: Active

Distinguishing Characteristics:

• Contact finish composition differs: 794609-1 uses tin-lead; 1-794609-0 uses tin
• Packaging differs: 794609-1 packaging unspecified; 1-794609-0 supplied in Cut Tape (CT)
• RoHS compliance differs: 794609-1 is non-compliant; 1-794609-0 is compliant

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

794609-1 Selection Criteria:

• Applications requiring tin-lead contact finish
• Designs where RoHS non-compliance is acceptable
• Existing inventory with unspecified packaging requirements

1-794609-0 Selection Criteria:

• Applications requiring RoHS compliance
• Designs where tin contact finish is acceptable
• Standardized Cut Tape (CT) packaging for automated assembly processes
• Higher inventory availability (301,868 pieces versus 893 pieces)

Both parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications within the Micro MATE-N-LOK series. Selection between these parts is determined by compliance requirements and contact finish material specifications rather than functional performance differences.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 1-794609-0 be used as a direct replacement for 794609-1?

A: Yes, 1-794609-0 is electrically and mechanically compatible with 794609-1 within the Micro MATE-N-LOK series. Both parts share identical wire gauge (26-30 AWG), contact termination method (crimp), contact finish thickness (100.0µin), and moisture sensitivity rating (MSL 1). The primary differences are contact finish material (tin versus tin-lead) and RoHS compliance status.

Q: What is the difference between the tin-lead finish on 794609-1 and the tin finish on 1-794609-0?

A: The contact finish material differs between these parts. 794609-1 features a tin-lead finish, while 1-794609-0 features a tin finish. Both finishes are applied to the same thickness (100.0µin or 2.54µm). The choice between these finishes depends on application requirements and regulatory compliance needs.

Q: Is 1-794609-0 RoHS compliant?

A: Yes, 1-794609-0 is RoHS compliant. The 794609-1 is RoHS non-compliant. Applications subject to RoHS regulations must use 1-794609-0.

Q: What packaging is available for these parts?

A: 794609-1 packaging is unspecified in the provided data. 1-794609-0 is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) packaging, which is standard for automated assembly processes.

Q: Are both parts currently in production?

A: Yes, both 794609-1 and 1-794609-0 are active products. 1-794609-0 has significantly higher inventory availability (301,868 pieces) compared to 794609-1 (893 pieces).

Q: Do these parts have the same wire gauge compatibility?

A: Yes, both parts support wire gauges 26-30 AWG and use identical crimp termination methods.
