Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the 85969-7 are identified based on the following critical parameters that determine functional equivalence:

Primary Substitution Criteria:

• Contact type: Socket
• Contact termination method: Crimp
• Contact finish material: Gold
• Contact finish thickness: 30.0µin (0.76µm)
• Packaging format: Cut Tape (CT)
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS Compliant status
• Moisture sensitivity: MSL 1 (Unlimited)

The substitute part 76347-312LF meets these core electrical and mechanical requirements. The wire gauge specification for the substitute (20-22 AWG) represents a subset of the main part's range (20-24 AWG), maintaining compatibility within the overlapping gauge specification of 20-22 AWG.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Part Selection (85969-7): The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors 85969-7 is the specified component with Active product status and ROHS3 compliance. This part is suitable for applications requiring the full 20-24 AWG wire gauge range and is backed by 5531 pieces of new original inventory.

Substitute Part Selection (76347-312LF): The Amphenol ICC (FCI) 76347-312LF is an Active product with RoHS compliance and equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters. This substitute is applicable for applications utilizing wire gauges within the 20-22 AWG range. The substitute provides 18680 pieces of new original inventory availability. Both parts maintain identical contact finish thickness (30.0µin) and MSL rating (1 - Unlimited), ensuring equivalent performance in moisture-sensitive environments.

Selection between the main part and substitute should be based on application wire gauge requirements and inventory availability. Both parts are Active products with appropriate regulatory compliance for their respective regions of use.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 76347-312LF substitute for the 85969-7 in all applications?

A: The 76347-312LF is suitable for applications using wire gauges within the 20-22 AWG range. Applications requiring 23-24 AWG wire gauge support must use the primary part 85969-7, as the substitute does not cover this upper range.

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

A: Yes. Both the 85969-7 and 76347-312LF feature gold contact finish with 30.0µin (0.76µm) thickness, ensuring equivalent electrical performance and corrosion resistance.

Q: What is the difference in RoHS compliance between these parts?

A: The main part 85969-7 carries ROHS3 compliance, while the substitute 76347-312LF carries RoHS compliance. Both designations indicate compliance with Restriction of Hazardous Substances regulations applicable to their respective markets.

Q: Are both parts available in Cut Tape packaging?

A: Yes. Both the 85969-7 and 76347-312LF are supplied in Cut Tape (CT) packaging format, maintaining consistency in handling and integration into automated assembly processes.

Q: What is the Moisture Sensitivity Level for these socket contacts?

A: Both parts carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) rating, indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions and no special storage or handling requirements prior to soldering or assembly.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably in the same connector assembly?

A: Interchangeability depends on the specific application's wire gauge requirements. For applications using 20-22 AWG wire, both parts are electrically and mechanically equivalent. For applications requiring 23-24 AWG support, only the 85969-7 is suitable.

Q: What is the base product number for each part?

A: The 85969-7 has base product number 85969 (TE Connectivity series AMPMODU Mod IV). The 76347-312LF has base product number 76347 (Amphenol ICC series DUBOX™, MezzSelect™, Basics+).
