Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Recommendation - Direct Amphenol ICC Upgrade:

The 861400162YO6LF is the direct active-production equivalent of the obsolete 861400162YO2. Both parts maintain identical mechanical and electrical specifications within the BERGSTIK® series. The 861400162YO6LF achieves RoHS compliance and is currently in active production with 823 units in stock, making it the preferred substitution path for designs requiring minimal qualification effort.

Secondary Recommendations - Cross-Manufacturer Alternatives:

For applications where cross-manufacturer qualification is acceptable, the following parts provide full functional equivalence:

5-146252-8 (TE Connectivity): Active production status with RoHS compliance. Operates across -65°C to 105°C, extending the lower temperature range. AMPMODU Mod II series provides proven interchangeability in 2.54mm pitch applications.
2316-6221-TB and 2316-6221-TG (3M 2300 Series): Active production with identical 3A current rating and 2.54mm pitch. Both maintain -55°C to 105°C operating range. The 2316-6221-TG variant offers higher inventory availability (1157 units) in bulk packaging.

Conditional Recommendations - Reduced Current Rating:

The 3M 929 series variants (929665-01-08-EU, 929665-01-08-I, 929836-01-08-RK, 929836-09-08) are functionally equivalent with one critical limitation: 2.5A current rating versus the original 3A specification. These parts are suitable only for applications where the 2.5A rating meets design requirements. The 929836-01-08-RK variant combines RoHS compliance with active production status.

Compliance Considerations:

For new designs or applications requiring RoHS compliance, select from: 861400162YO6LF, 5-146252-8, 929665-01-08-EU, 929665-01-08-I, or 929836-01-08-RK. For legacy designs where RoHS non-compliance is acceptable, 2316-6221-TB, 2316-6221-TG, and 929836-01-08 remain viable options.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 861400162YO2 be directly replaced with the 861400162YO6LF?

A: Yes. Both parts are Amphenol ICC BERGSTIK® series connectors with identical 16-position, 2-row configuration at 2.54mm pitch, male pin contacts, solder termination, and 3A current rating. The primary difference is RoHS compliance status and active production availability of the YO6LF variant.

Q: What is the key difference between the Amphenol ICC and 3M 2300 series substitutes?

A: Both maintain the 16-position, 2-row 2.54mm pitch configuration and 3A current rating. The 3M 2300 series (2316-6221-TB, 2316-6221-TG) operates at -55°C to 105°C versus the Amphenol ICC -55°C to 125°C range. Mechanical envelope differences exist in contact length and insulation height specifications.

Q: Why do the 3M 929 series parts show 2.5A current rating instead of 3A?

A: The 929 series is a different product line with different contact geometry and current-carrying capacity. While mechanically compatible at 2.54mm pitch with 16 positions, the 2.5A rating represents a design limitation of that series. Use only in applications where 2.5A meets requirements.

Q: Are TE Connectivity AMPMODU Mod II parts (5-146252-8, 87227-8) fully compatible?

A: Yes, both parts meet all core substitution criteria: 16-position, 2-row 2.54mm pitch, male pin contacts, solder termination, and 3A current rating. The 5-146252-8 offers RoHS compliance; the 87227-8 does not. Both are in active production.

Q: What packaging options are available for these substitutes?

A: The 861400162YO6LF is supplied in bag packaging. The 3M 2300 series and TE Connectivity AMPMODU parts are available in bulk packaging. The 3M 929 series is supplied in bulk. Packaging selection depends on procurement and assembly requirements.

Q: Can I use a substitute part with a lower operating temperature minimum (-40°C vs. -55°C)?

A: The 3M 929 series parts operate from -40°C to 105°C, which does not meet the original -55°C minimum specification. Use only if your application's actual operating environment does not require temperatures below -40°C.

Q: Which substitute offers the best inventory availability?

A: The 2316-6221-TG (3M 2300 series) has the highest inventory at 1157 units in stock. The 87227-8 (TE Connectivity) has 1818 units available. For Amphenol ICC direct replacement, the 861400162YO6LF has 823 units in stock.
