Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 95157-116 is determined by strict alignment with the following critical parameters: 16-position configuration, 2-row arrangement, 0.100" (2.54mm) mating pitch, 0.100" (2.54mm) row spacing, surface mount termination, male pin contact type, board-to-board style, solder termination, 3A current rating, and UL94 V-0 flammability compliance.

The identified substitutes maintain these core electrical and mechanical specifications. The 95157-116LF represents a direct variant from the same manufacturer with identical specifications but improved compliance status. The 5-146130-7 from TE Connectivity AMP Connectors meets all critical dimensional and electrical parameters while offering active product status and enhanced regulatory compliance.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 95157-116LF is the primary substitute for the obsolete 95157-116, offering identical electrical and mechanical specifications with the advantage of active product status and RoHS compliance. This variant maintains full compatibility with existing PCB layouts and mating connectors designed for the original part.

The 5-146130-7 from TE Connectivity represents an alternative cross-platform substitute meeting all critical dimensional and electrical requirements. This part offers active product status, ROHS3 compliance, and REACH compliance status. The operating temperature range is reduced to -65°C to 125°C compared to the original -65°C to 130°C specification. The 5-146130-7 features Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP) insulation material and includes breakaway connector capability, providing additional design flexibility. Contact material differs as Copper Alloy rather than Phosphor Bronze, though current rating and contact finish specifications remain equivalent.

Selection between the two substitutes depends on compliance requirements, supply chain availability, and thermal operating envelope constraints specific to the application.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 95157-116LF be used as a direct replacement for the 95157-116?

A: Yes. The 95157-116LF maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications including 16-position configuration, 2.54mm pitch, 3A current rating, and -65°C to 130°C operating temperature range. The primary difference is product status and RoHS compliance.

Q: What are the key differences between the 95157-116LF and 5-146130-7?

A: Both parts share the same 16-position, 2-row, 2.54mm pitch configuration and 3A current rating. The 5-146130-7 operates to 125°C maximum versus 130°C for the 95157-116LF, uses Copper Alloy contacts instead of Phosphor Bronze, and features LCP insulation material. The 5-146130-7 also supports breakaway connector configuration in addition to standard board-to-board mounting.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these substitutes?

A: The 95157-116LF is supplied in bulk packaging, while the 5-146130-7 is supplied in tube packaging. Both are suitable for surface mount assembly processes.

Q: Do these substitutes maintain the same PCB footprint?

A: Yes. All three parts share identical mating pitch (0.100"), row spacing (0.100"), and surface mount termination specifications, ensuring compatibility with existing PCB designs.

Q: What compliance certifications apply to each substitute?

A: The 95157-116LF is RoHS Compliant and REACH Affected. The 5-146130-7 is ROHS3 Compliant with REACH status listed as Vendor Undefined. The original 95157-116 is RoHS non-compliant.

Q: Can the 5-146130-7 be used in applications requiring operation above 125°C?

A: No. The 5-146130-7 maximum operating temperature is 125°C. For applications requiring operation to 130°C, the 95157-116LF is the appropriate substitute.
