Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the 8080-1G13 is determined by the following critical parameters:

Primary Substitution Criteria:

• Type: Transistor, TO-3 socket
• Number of Positions: 3 (Oval)
• Mounting Type: Chassis Mount
• Features: Closed Frame
• Termination: Solder
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)

Substitute Parts Identified:

Group 1: Direct TO-3 Transistor Socket Equivalents

• Keystone Electronics 4513
• Keystone Electronics 4600

These parts maintain the core functional requirements of a 3-position TO-3 transistor socket with chassis mount configuration and closed frame design. Both are active products with current availability.

Group 2: Alternative Connector Architecture

• Amphenol ICC (FCI) 68002-404HLF

This part represents a different connector category (rectangular header connector) with 4 positions and 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch. While functionally distinct from the TO-3 socket architecture, it shares common electrical and mechanical parameters including solder termination, through-hole mounting capability, and MSL 1 rating.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For Direct TO-3 Socket Replacement:

The Keystone Electronics 4513 and 4600 are functionally equivalent substitutes for the obsolete 8080-1G13. Both parts maintain the 3-position oval TO-3 socket configuration with chassis mount and closed frame design. Key differentiators between these two options:

• Keystone 4513: PBT housing material with UL94 V-0 flammability rating. Active product status with 1815 units in stock.
• Keystone 4600: Polyester glass-filled housing material with UL94 V-0 flammability rating. Active product status with 2100 units in stock.

Both Keystone parts are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, providing regulatory advantages over the original obsolete part. Contact material differs from the original (brass versus beryllium copper), and contact finish is tin only rather than tin-lead. These substitutes are suitable for applications requiring TO-3 transistor socket functionality with current product availability and compliance certifications.

For Alternative Connector Architecture:

The Amphenol ICC 68002-404HLF represents a different connector category and is not a direct functional equivalent. This part is applicable only when circuit design permits substitution of a 4-position 0.100" pitch header connector for the 3-position TO-3 socket. This part offers extended operating temperature range (-65°C to 130°C) and ROHS3 compliance but requires circuit redesign for implementation.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Keystone 4513 or 4600 directly replace the TE Connectivity 8080-1G13 in existing designs?

A: Both Keystone parts maintain the same TO-3 socket configuration, 3-position oval layout, chassis mount type, and closed frame design. Contact material and finish differ (brass with tin versus beryllium copper with tin-lead), which may affect electrical performance in specific applications. Circuit validation is required to confirm compatibility with existing designs.

Q: What is the primary reason for seeking substitutes for the 8080-1G13?

A: The 8080-1G13 is classified as obsolete. Keystone Electronics 4513 and 4600 are active products with current manufacturing and inventory availability, ensuring long-term supply chain continuity.

Q: How do the RoHS and REACH compliance statuses differ between the original part and substitutes?

A: The original 8080-1G13 is RoHS non-compliant and REACH affected. Both Keystone substitutes (4513 and 4600) are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, providing regulatory advantages for new designs and applications subject to environmental compliance requirements.

Q: What is the difference between the Keystone 4513 and 4600?

A: Both parts are functionally equivalent 3-position TO-3 transistor sockets with identical electrical specifications. The primary difference is housing material: the 4513 uses PBT while the 4600 uses polyester glass-filled material. Both carry UL94 V-0 flammability ratings. Selection between these parts depends on specific thermal or mechanical requirements of the application.

Q: Is the Amphenol ICC 68002-404HLF a suitable replacement for the 8080-1G13?

A: The 68002-404HLF is a 4-position 0.100" pitch header connector, not a TO-3 transistor socket. This part is not a direct functional equivalent and requires circuit redesign for implementation. It is applicable only when connector architecture can be modified to accommodate a different connector type and position count.

Q: What are the key parameters that determine substitution compatibility?

A: Substitution compatibility is determined by: connector type (TO-3 transistor socket), number of positions (3 oval), mounting configuration (chassis mount), frame design (closed frame), and termination method (solder). Contact material, housing material, and operating temperature specifications may vary between equivalent parts depending on application requirements.

Q: Are there inventory considerations when selecting between substitute parts?

A: Yes. Keystone 4513 has 1815 units in stock, while Keystone 4600 has 2100 units in stock. Both represent active products with current availability. The original 8080-1G13 has 1041 units listed but is obsolete and subject to discontinuation.
