Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The substitute part 6-928918-1 is the direct equivalent for the obsolete TE Connectivity 928918-1. Selection of the substitute part is based on the following engineering criteria:

Product Status: The main part 928918-1 carries obsolete status, limiting long-term procurement viability. The substitute 6-928918-1 maintains active product status, ensuring continued availability and manufacturer support.

Regulatory Compliance: Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and identical ECCN and HTSUS classifications, confirming regulatory equivalence for international trade and environmental standards.

Functional Equivalence: All critical electrical and mechanical parameters are identical, including wire gauge compatibility (20-24 AWG), contact finish (tin), termination method (crimp), and series designation (Micro Quadlok).

Packaging Consideration: The substitute part is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) packaging, which is standard for high-volume production environments and automated assembly processes.

For applications currently using 928918-1, direct substitution with 6-928918-1 maintains full design compatibility without circuit or assembly modifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 6-928918-1 be used as a direct replacement for 928918-1 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts are identical in all critical parameters including wire gauge (20-24 AWG), contact finish (tin), termination method (crimp), and series designation (Micro Quadlok). No design modifications are required.

Q: What is the difference between the two part numbers?

A: The primary difference is product status. The 928918-1 is obsolete, while 6-928918-1 is active. The packaging differs (unspecified versus Cut Tape), but the contact specifications are identical.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both 928918-1 and 6-928918-1 are ROHS3 compliant, meeting environmental and regulatory requirements for electronic components.

Q: What wire gauges are compatible with these pin contacts?

A: Both parts are designed for crimp termination with wire gauges 20-24 AWG. This range covers standard signal and power distribution applications in rectangular connector assemblies.

Q: Is the tin contact finish suitable for my application?

A: Tin plating provides corrosion resistance and solderability for rectangular connector contacts. Both parts use identical tin finish specifications. Application suitability depends on your specific environmental and thermal requirements.

Q: What is the Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) for these parts?

A: The main part 928918-1 has MSL 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions. The substitute 6-928918-1 lists MSL as Not Applicable, which is consistent with stamped metal contact components that do not absorb moisture.

Q: Can these parts be used in automated assembly processes?

A: Yes. The Cut Tape (CT) packaging of 6-928918-1 is designed for automated pick-and-place equipment and high-volume production environments.
