Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the obsolete 794619-2 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Mechanical Compatibility Parameters:

• Connector type (Header)
• Number of positions (2)
• Number of rows (2)
• Row spacing (0.118" / 3.00mm)
• Mounting type (Through Hole, Right Angle)
• Shrouding configuration (Shrouded - 4 Wall)
• Contact type (Male Pin)
• Insulation height (0.290" / 7.37mm)
• Contact shape (Square)

Electrical Compatibility Parameters:

• Voltage rating (250V)
• Operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 105°C)
• Material flammability rating (UL94 V-0)

Termination Parameters:

• Termination method (Solder)
• Fastening type (Locking Ramp)

The substitute part 3-794619-2 maintains full equivalence across all mechanical and electrical parameters. The primary differences are product status (Active vs. Obsolete), packaging format (Tray vs. standard), contact finish post material (Tin vs. Tin-Lead), and regulatory compliance status (RoHS Compliant vs. RoHS non-compliant).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 3-794619-2 is the direct active equivalent for the obsolete 794619-2. Both parts maintain identical mechanical and electrical specifications across all critical parameters including connector configuration, voltage rating, operating temperature range, and flammability certification.

Product Status Consideration: The 794619-2 is classified as obsolete, while the 3-794619-2 is active. For new designs and ongoing procurement, the 3-794619-2 is the appropriate selection to ensure long-term component availability and supply chain continuity.

Regulatory Compliance: The 3-794619-2 is RoHS Compliant, whereas the 794619-2 is RoHS non-compliant. For applications subject to RoHS requirements, the 3-794619-2 is the mandated choice. Both parts carry UL94 V-0 flammability certification and operate across the identical temperature range of -40°C to 105°C.

Contact Finish Difference: The primary technical distinction is the contact finish post material. The 794619-2 uses Tin-Lead finish, while the 3-794619-2 uses Tin finish. Both finishes provide equivalent solder joint reliability and electrical performance for through-hole solder termination applications. The Tin finish in the 3-794619-2 aligns with lead-free manufacturing standards.

Packaging: The 3-794619-2 is supplied in Tray packaging, whereas the 794619-2 uses standard packaging. Packaging format does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 3-794619-2 be used as a direct replacement for the 794619-2 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The 3-794619-2 is mechanically and electrically equivalent to the 794619-2 across all critical parameters. Both connectors feature identical 2-position, 2-row configurations with 0.118" (3.00mm) row spacing, through-hole right-angle mounting, shrouded 4-wall design, and 250V voltage rating. The parts are interchangeable in circuit applications.

Q: What is the significance of the contact finish difference between Tin-Lead and Tin?

A: Both Tin-Lead and Tin finishes provide reliable solder joint formation and electrical conductivity for through-hole termination. The Tin finish in the 3-794619-2 represents a lead-free alternative that complies with modern manufacturing standards. For solder joint reliability and electrical performance, both finishes are functionally equivalent.

Q: Why is the 794619-2 listed as obsolete?

A: The 794619-2 has been superseded by the 3-794619-2, which is the active production part. The 3-794619-2 offers improved regulatory compliance (RoHS Compliant status) and lead-free contact finish while maintaining full mechanical and electrical equivalence.

Q: Are there any temperature or voltage limitations when substituting the 3-794619-2 for the 794619-2?

A: No. Both parts operate across the identical temperature range of -40°C to 105°C and carry the same 250V voltage rating. There are no thermal or electrical limitations associated with substitution.

Q: Does the Tray packaging of the 3-794619-2 affect its performance or compatibility?

A: No. Packaging format is a logistics and handling consideration only. It does not affect the electrical performance, mechanical fit, or functional compatibility of the connector. The 3-794619-2 in Tray packaging is fully compatible with applications designed for the 794619-2.

Q: What certifications do both parts carry?

A: Both the 794619-2 and 3-794619-2 carry UL94 V-0 material flammability certification. The 3-794619-2 additionally carries RoHS Compliance certification, whereas the 794619-2 is RoHS non-compliant. Both parts are classified as Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) 1 (Unlimited).

Q: Is the 3-794619-2 suitable for applications requiring RoHS compliance?

A: Yes. The 3-794619-2 is RoHS Compliant and is the appropriate choice for applications subject to RoHS requirements. The 794619-2 is RoHS non-compliant and cannot be used in RoHS-mandated applications.
