• Row Configuration: 4 rows (exact match required)
• Connector Type: Header with male pins (exact match required)
• Mounting Method: Through-hole PCB mounting (exact match required)
• Termination Style: Press-fit (exact match required)
• Contact Finish: Gold plating (exact match required)
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C ~ 125°C (exact match or wider range acceptable)
• Flammability Rating: UL94 V-0 (exact match or higher rating acceptable)

The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors 5536504-4 meets all critical substitution criteria. This part maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications while offering active product status and improved regulatory compliance.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors 5536504-4 is the qualified substitute for the obsolete Amphenol ICC 88924-101. Selection is based on the following factors:

Electrical and Mechanical Compatibility: The 5536504-4 maintains identical position count, pitch spacing, row configuration, connector type, mounting method, and termination style. All critical dimensional and functional parameters align with the original specification.

Product Status and Supply Chain: The 88924-101 is classified as obsolete, creating supply chain risk for ongoing production and field service applications. The 5536504-4 maintains active product status with documented inventory availability, ensuring long-term sourcing capability.

Regulatory Compliance: The 5536504-4 achieves ROHS3 compliance, whereas the original part is RoHS non-compliant. This upgrade supports compliance requirements for new designs and regulated markets. Both parts maintain UL94 V-0 flammability certification and identical operating temperature specifications.

Connector Series and Standards: The 5536504-4 is designated as Futurebus-compliant within the Z-PACK series, providing standardized interface assurance for backplane applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 5536504-4 be used as a direct replacement for the 88924-101 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The 5536504-4 maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications including position count (192), pitch (0.079"), row configuration (4), connector type (male header), mounting method (through-hole), and termination style (press-fit). PCB footprints and mating interface requirements are compatible.

Q: What are the key differences between these parts?

A: The primary differences are product status and regulatory compliance. The 88924-101 is obsolete and RoHS non-compliant, while the 5536504-4 is an active product with ROHS3 compliance. The 5536504-4 also specifies a 30V voltage rating. Both parts share identical thermal, electrical, and mechanical operating parameters.

Q: Are there packaging differences between the original and substitute?

A: Yes. The 88924-101 packaging is not specified in available documentation. The 5536504-4 is supplied in tube packaging. Verify tube packaging compatibility with your assembly and handling processes.

Q: Does the Futurebus designation on the 5536504-4 affect compatibility?

A: No. The Futurebus designation indicates standards compliance for backplane connector applications. This does not restrict use in other through-hole header applications and does not affect mechanical or electrical compatibility with the 88924-101 footprint.

Q: What is the current rating difference between these parts?

A: The 88924-101 specifies 1A current rating. The 5536504-4 does not specify a current rating in available documentation. Verify current requirements for your specific application against the 5536504-4 datasheet.

Q: Are both parts suitable for the same operating temperature range?

A: Yes. Both parts operate across the identical temperature range of -55°C to 125°C, supporting equivalent thermal performance in all environmental conditions.
