Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 929648-01-02-EU is determined by the following critical parameters:

  • Pitch Compatibility: All substitutes must maintain 0.100" (2.54mm) mating pitch
  • Position Count: Substitutes must provide 2 positions in a single row configuration
  • Mounting Configuration: Through-hole, right-angle mounting is required
  • Termination Method: Solder termination is mandatory
  • Electrical Performance: Current rating must meet or exceed 2.5A
  • Environmental Compliance: RoHS compliance and UL94 V-0 flammability rating required
  • Connector Style: Board-to-board or board-to-cable capable headers

The identified substitutes (826631-2 and TSW-102-22-L-S-RA) meet these core requirements while originating from different manufacturers, providing alternative sourcing options for equivalent functionality.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

826631-2 (TE Connectivity AMP Connectors)

This substitute provides enhanced current capacity at 5A, exceeding the 2.5A requirement of the primary part. The extended operating temperature range (-65°C to 105°C) offers broader environmental compatibility. RoHS compliance is confirmed, and UL94 V-0 flammability rating is maintained. The AMPMODU Mod II series is widely used in industrial and commercial applications. Inventory availability is substantial at 3,725 pieces.

TSW-102-22-L-S-RA (Samtec Inc.)

This substitute maintains the same pitch, position count, and mounting configuration as the primary part. The TSW series operates across an extended temperature range (-55°C to 125°C), providing superior thermal performance. ROHS3 compliance indicates adherence to current regulatory standards. The connector uses phosphor bronze contacts with tin finish on posts. Inventory availability is 1,220 pieces. Current rating is not specified in available documentation.

Both substitutes maintain active product status and meet all mandatory compliance requirements for direct substitution in equivalent applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 826631-2 be used as a direct replacement for 929648-01-02-EU?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical pitch (0.100"), position count (2), mounting type (through-hole right-angle), and termination method (solder). The 826631-2 provides equal or superior electrical performance with a 5A current rating compared to the 2.5A rating of the primary part. All compliance certifications align.

Q: What is the primary difference between the two substitute options?

A: The 826631-2 offers higher current capacity (5A vs. unspecified for TSW-102-22-L-S-RA) and a wider low-temperature operating range (-65°C vs. -55°C). The TSW-102-22-L-S-RA provides the highest upper temperature rating at 125°C. Contact material differs: 826631-2 uses brass, while TSW-102-22-L-S-RA uses phosphor bronze.

Q: Are all three connectors RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The primary part (929648-01-02-EU) is RoHS Compliant. The 826631-2 is RoHS Compliant. The TSW-102-22-L-S-RA is ROHS3 Compliant, which represents current regulatory alignment.

Q: What are the mechanical differences in contact dimensions?

A: Contact length specifications vary slightly. The 929648-01-02-EU has a mating contact length of 0.235" (5.97mm), the 826631-2 measures 0.264" (6.70mm), and the TSW-102-22-L-S-RA measures 0.230" (5.84mm). Post lengths also differ: 0.110" (2.79mm), 0.126" (3.20mm), and 0.190" (4.83mm) respectively. These variations may affect board layout and mating depth considerations.

Q: Can these connectors be intermated with each other?

A: Mechanical intermating is not recommended. While all three connectors share the same 0.100" pitch and 2-position configuration, variations in contact length, insulation height, and contact finish specifications may result in unreliable connections or contact damage.

Q: Which substitute offers the best thermal performance?

A: The TSW-102-22-L-S-RA provides the highest upper operating temperature limit at 125°C, compared to 105°C for both the primary part and the 826631-2. For applications requiring extended high-temperature operation, this specification should be considered.

Q: Are moisture sensitivity levels equivalent across all three parts?

A: Yes. All three connectors are rated at MSL 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions for storage, handling, or assembly processes.
