Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The Preci-Dip 90691-AS qualifies as a direct substitute for the 90771-AS based on the following alignment criteria:

Matching Parameters:

• Contact Type: Both are Sleeve & Plunger (Pogo Pins)
• Mounting Type: Both are Free Hanging (In-Line)
• Manufacturer: Both manufactured by Preci-Dip
• Category: Both classified as Contacts
• Packaging: Both supplied in Bulk
• RoHS Status: Both ROHS3 Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: Both MSL 1 (Unlimited)
• REACH Status: Both REACH Affected
• ECCN: Both EAR99
• HTSUS Code: Both 8536.90.4000

Critical Dimensional Compatibility: The 90691-AS maximum working height of 0.419" (10.64mm) is within 0.006" (0.16mm) of the 90771-AS maximum working height of 0.425" (10.80mm), representing a 1.4% variance. This dimensional tolerance falls within standard mechanical substitution parameters for pogo pin contact assemblies.

The 90691-AS is currently in active production status, providing supply continuity for the obsolete 90771-AS.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Preci-Dip 90691-AS is the designated equivalent for the obsolete 90771-AS. Selection of the 90691-AS is supported by:

Regulatory Compliance: Both parts maintain identical RoHS3 compliance status, REACH affected designation, and EAR99 export classification, ensuring no regulatory barriers to substitution.

Product Status: The 90691-AS active production status eliminates supply chain discontinuity associated with the obsolete 90771-AS.

Dimensional Compatibility: The 0.006" (0.16mm) maximum working height differential represents acceptable mechanical tolerance for free-hanging pogo pin contact applications.

Electrical and Material Specifications: The 90691-AS provides documented electrical performance (5A current rating, 20000 mating cycles) and material composition (Beryllium Copper with Gold finish) that establish functional capability for contact spring applications.

Moisture and Environmental Handling: Identical MSL 1 classification confirms equivalent moisture sensitivity and storage requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 90691-AS directly replace the 90771-AS in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical contact type (Sleeve & Plunger Pogo Pins), mounting type (Free Hanging In-Line), and regulatory compliance status. The 0.006" maximum working height difference is within standard mechanical tolerance for pogo pin assemblies.

Q: What is the significance of the 90771-AS being obsolete?

A: Obsolete status indicates the part is no longer manufactured. The 90691-AS, currently in active production, provides supply continuity and eliminates procurement risk.

Q: Are there any electrical performance differences between these parts?

A: The 90691-AS provides specified electrical parameters (5A current rating, 20000 mating cycles, 66.28gf initial operating force, 200.88gf mid-compression operating force) that were not documented for the 90771-AS. These specifications establish the electrical capability of the substitute.

Q: Do both parts meet the same environmental and compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both parts are ROHS3 compliant, REACH affected, MSL 1 (Unlimited), and classified as EAR99 for export purposes. Identical compliance status ensures no regulatory substitution barriers.

Q: What is the pad layout dimension of the 90691-AS?

A: The 90691-AS pad layout dimension is 0.072" (1.83mm) diameter. This specification was not provided for the 90771-AS.

Q: How many mating cycles does the 90691-AS support?

A: The 90691-AS is rated for 20000 mating cycles, providing documented mechanical durability for contact engagement applications.

Q: What contact material and finish are used in the 90691-AS?

A: The 90691-AS uses Beryllium Copper contact material with Gold finish at 20.0µin (0.51µm) thickness, standard for pogo pin contact assemblies requiring reliable electrical conductivity.
