Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the obsolete 796375-1 connector is determined by strict equivalence across all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. The substitute part must maintain identical specifications in the following key areas:

Electrical Parameters: Voltage rating of 250VAC/DC, operating temperature range of -55°C to 105°C, and contact finish specifications (gold plating at 30.0µin thickness on brass contacts) must be preserved.

Mechanical Parameters: The connector must retain the 9-position configuration, shell size 13-9, receptacle type with male pins, panel mount through-hole right-angle orientation, threaded fastening, and flange mounting feature.

Material & Compliance Parameters: Thermoplastic shell material, UL94 V-0 flammability rating, and MSL 1 classification must be maintained. Solder termination type is required for PCB integration compatibility.

Series Compatibility: The substitute part must belong to the CPC Series 1 family to ensure mechanical and electrical interchangeability.

The substitute relationship is based on functional equivalence within the TE Connectivity AMP Connectors product line, where the substitute part provides identical performance characteristics while offering improved product status and compliance posture.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors 1-796375-1 is the direct active equivalent for the obsolete 796375-1 connector. Both parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters, including voltage rating, operating temperature range, contact configuration, and mounting characteristics.

The primary distinction between these parts is product status and regulatory compliance. The 1-796375-1 is classified as active, ensuring continued availability and manufacturer support. Additionally, the 1-796375-1 achieves RoHS compliance, whereas the 796375-1 is RoHS non-compliant. This compliance improvement aligns with current regulatory requirements for electronic component procurement in many industries.

For new designs and production applications, the 1-796375-1 is the appropriate selection. For legacy system maintenance where the original 796375-1 is specified, the 1-796375-1 provides direct functional substitution without design modification or re-qualification requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1-796375-1 be used as a direct replacement for the 796375-1 in existing assemblies?

A: Yes. The 1-796375-1 is functionally equivalent to the 796375-1 across all electrical and mechanical parameters. Both connectors share identical specifications for voltage rating, operating temperature, contact configuration, mounting type, and termination method. Direct substitution is supported without design changes.

Q: What is the difference between 796375-1 and 1-796375-1?

A: The primary differences are product status and RoHS compliance. The 796375-1 is obsolete and RoHS non-compliant, while the 1-796375-1 is active and RoHS compliant. All functional specifications remain identical.

Q: Are there any compatibility concerns when substituting the 1-796375-1 for the 796375-1?

A: No compatibility concerns exist. Both parts are CPC Series 1 connectors with identical shell size (13-9), pin count (9 positions), mounting configuration (panel mount, through-hole, right-angle), and solder termination. Mechanical and electrical interchangeability is complete.

Q: Does the RoHS compliance status of the 1-796375-1 affect its performance?

A: RoHS compliance status does not affect electrical or mechanical performance. The 1-796375-1 maintains all performance specifications of the 796375-1, including voltage rating, temperature range, and contact characteristics. RoHS compliance reflects material composition changes that do not impact functional operation.

Q: What is the inventory status for these connectors?

A: The 796375-1 (obsolete) has 1396 pieces in stock. The 1-796375-1 (active) has 1086 pieces in stock. For ongoing procurement, the 1-796375-1 is the recommended selection due to its active status and continued manufacturer support.

Q: Are the contact finish specifications identical between these parts?

A: Yes. Both connectors feature gold-plated mating contacts with identical finish thickness of 30.0µin (0.76µm) on brass contact material. Contact performance and mating characteristics are equivalent.

Q: Can the 1-796375-1 be used in applications requiring -55°C to 105°C operation?

A: Yes. The 1-796375-1 is rated for the full operating temperature range of -55°C to 105°C, identical to the 796375-1. Temperature performance is equivalent across both parts.
