Amphenol ICC 85854-183 Backplane Connector Header - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Amphenol ICC 85854-183 is a 120-position PCB header connector with male pins, designed for through-hole mounting in backplane applications. This part operates within the Metral® series and is classified as obsolete. Due to its obsolete status and non-RoHS compliance, equivalent substitute parts are necessary for new designs and ongoing production requirements. Active alternatives are available from both Amphenol ICC and TE Connectivity AMP Connectors that maintain electrical and mechanical compatibility.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 85854-183 is determined by the following critical parameters:

Number of Positions: 120 (exact match required)
Pitch: 0.079" (2.00mm) (exact match required)
Number of Rows: 5 (exact match required)
Connector Type: Header, Male Pins (exact match required)
Mounting Type: Through Hole (exact match required)
Termination: Press-Fit (exact match required)
Operating Temperature Range: -55°C to 125°C (exact match required)
Material Flammability Rating: UL94 V-0 (exact match required)
Contact Finish: Gold (exact match required)

All substitute parts listed maintain these core electrical and mechanical parameters. Variations in product status, RoHS compliance, color designation, and number of positions loaded do not affect functional interchangeability in applications where the 85854-183 was originally specified.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For RoHS-compliant applications: Select 85854-183LF (Amphenol ICC), 1-5223083-3, 2-5223083-0, 2-5223083-7, 3-5223083-7, or 5223002-4. All are active products with RoHS compliance certifications.

For direct Amphenol ICC continuity: The 85854-183LF is the active equivalent within the same manufacturer family, offering RoHS compliance while maintaining the Metral® series designation and identical electrical specifications.

For TE Connectivity alternatives: Parts 1-5223083-3, 2-5223083-0, 2-5223083-7, 3-5223083-7, and 5223002-4 are all active Z-PACK series headers with 30V voltage rating and full RoHS compliance. These parts differ in the number of positions loaded (57, 60, or all 120 positions), which does not affect functional compatibility in standard backplane applications.

For new production designs: Avoid the obsolete 85854-183. Specify an active substitute to ensure long-term supply chain stability and regulatory compliance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 85854-183 be directly replaced with 85854-183LF?

A: Yes. The 85854-183LF maintains all critical electrical and mechanical parameters: 120 positions, 0.079" pitch, 5 rows, through-hole mounting, press-fit termination, gold contact finish, and -55°C to 125°C operating range. The primary difference is RoHS compliance status and active product availability.

Q: What is the difference between the TE Connectivity parts (1-5223083-3, 2-5223083-0, 2-5223083-7, 3-5223083-7, and 5223002-4)?

A: All five TE Connectivity parts share identical electrical and mechanical specifications for the 120-position header. The variations are in the number of positions loaded (57, 60, or all 120). In applications where all 120 positions are required, select parts with "All" positions loaded: 1-5223083-3, 2-5223083-0, or 5223002-4. Parts 2-5223083-7 and 3-5223083-7 have 57 and 60 positions loaded respectively and are suitable only if partial loading matches application requirements.

Q: Are there voltage rating differences between the 85854-183 and TE Connectivity substitutes?

A: The original 85854-183 does not specify a voltage rating. TE Connectivity parts (1-5223083-3, 2-5223083-0, 2-5223083-7, 3-5223083-7, and 5223002-4) are rated for 30V. This higher rating provides additional design margin and does not create incompatibility.

Q: What packaging is available for these substitute parts?

A: The 85854-183LF is supplied in Tube packaging. All TE Connectivity substitutes (1-5223083-3, 2-5223083-0, 2-5223083-7, 3-5223083-7, and 5223002-4) are supplied in Tube packaging.

Q: Is the current rating of 1A for the 85854-183 maintained in all substitutes?

A: The 85854-183 specifies 1A current rating. TE Connectivity substitutes do not specify a current rating in the provided data. For applications requiring confirmed 1A rating, the 85854-183LF is the recommended choice as it maintains the original 1A specification.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably in existing designs?

A: Yes, provided all 120 positions are required. Select substitute parts with "All" positions loaded. If your application uses fewer than 120 positions, verify that the substitute part's loaded position count meets or exceeds your requirement.
