USB-A USB 2.0 Receptacle Connector 87520-0112ALF

Part Overview

The Amphenol ICC 87520-0112ALF is an active USB-A USB 2.0 receptacle connector designed for through-hole, right-angle mounting applications. This 4-position connector features board lock functionality, shielded construction, and gold-plated contacts rated for 3A current at operating temperatures from -55°C to 85°C. The part is RoHS compliant and currently in active production status with 1151 units available in stock.

Alternative equivalent parts may be required due to packaging format availability, inventory constraints, or specific mechanical mounting preferences while maintaining full electrical and functional compatibility.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Equivalent substitution for the 87520-0112ALF is determined by strict adherence to the following core parameters:

• Connector Type & Specification: USB-A receptacle, USB 2.0 compliant
• Contact Configuration: 4-position
• Mounting Geometry: Through-hole, right-angle, horizontal orientation
• Electrical Performance: 3A current rating minimum, shielded construction
• Termination Method: Solder attachment
• Functional Features: Board lock capability
• Environmental Compliance: UL94 V-0 flammability rating, RoHS compliance

The substitute parts listed below meet all mandatory electrical and mechanical parameters. Variations in packaging format (Tape & Reel versus Cut Tape), insulation color, shell material composition, and manufacturer-specific contact finish specifications do not affect functional interchangeability in circuit applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

87520-3112ALF (Amphenol ICC): Direct parametric equivalent with identical electrical specifications and operating temperature range. Differs only in packaging format (Cut Tape versus Tape & Reel) and insulation color (Black versus White). RoHS compliant. Suitable for direct substitution with higher inventory availability.

614104150121 (Würth Elektronik): Functionally equivalent for applications where current requirements do not exceed 1.5A. Operating temperature range is -40°C to 85°C (narrower low-temperature specification than main part). ROHS3 compliant. Shell material is brass rather than copper alloy. Suitable for substitution in standard industrial temperature range applications.

USB1130-15-A (GCT): Functionally equivalent with enhanced mating cycle rating of 10000 cycles versus 1500 cycles. Operating temperature range is -25°C to 85°C (narrower low-temperature specification than main part). ROHS3 compliant. Shell material is steel (SUS304). Suitable for substitution in applications requiring extended connector lifespan and higher insertion/removal cycle tolerance.

All substitute parts maintain active product status and full RoHS compliance certification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 87520-3112ALF replace 87520-0112ALF in all applications?

A: Yes. Both parts are manufactured by Amphenol ICC, share identical electrical specifications, current rating, operating temperature range, and mating cycle rating. The only differences are packaging format and insulation color, which do not affect electrical or mechanical function.

Q: What is the primary limitation of 614104150121 as a substitute?

A: The current rating is 1.5A compared to 3A for the main part. This part is suitable only for applications where circuit current does not exceed 1.5A. Additionally, the operating temperature minimum is -40°C rather than -55°C.

Q: Why does USB1130-15-A have a higher mating cycle rating?

A: USB1130-15-A is rated for 10000 mating cycles versus 1500 cycles for the main part. This reflects design differences in contact geometry and materials (steel shell versus copper alloy). Both meet the same electrical specifications and are suitable for applications requiring frequent connector insertion and removal.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The main part is RoHS Compliant. Substitute parts 87520-3112ALF and 614104150121 are RoHS Compliant or ROHS3 Compliant. All meet applicable RoHS requirements.

Q: Does packaging format affect electrical performance?

A: No. Tape & Reel (TR) and Cut Tape (CT) packaging formats are logistics and handling specifications only. They do not affect connector electrical characteristics, impedance, signal integrity, or mechanical function.

Q: Can these connectors be used interchangeably on the same PCB?

A: Yes, provided the PCB footprint accommodates the through-hole mounting geometry. All listed parts feature identical through-hole, right-angle, horizontal mounting specifications and are mechanically interchangeable at the board level.
