Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the 961111-6700-AR-TP is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

• Pitch - Mating: 0.100" (2.54mm) — all substitutes maintain this specification
• Number of Positions: 11 — all substitutes provide 11-position configuration
• Contact Type: Male Pin — all substitutes use male pin contacts
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount — all substitutes are surface mount
• Termination: Solder — all substitutes use solder termination
• Fastening Type: Push-Pull — all substitutes maintain push-pull mechanism
• Contact Finish - Mating: Gold — all substitutes feature gold mating surface
• Material Flammability Rating: UL94 V-0 — all substitutes meet this requirement
• Insulation Color: Black — all substitutes use black insulation

Substitute parts are grouped by manufacturer and series. TE Connectivity AMP Connectors (5-146129-9) and Amphenol ICC BERGSTIK® series (95293-102-11LF, 95293-402-11LF, 95293-802-11LF) provide direct functional equivalents. Samtec TSM series (TSM-111-02-F-SV-P, TSM-111-02-L-SV-P, TSM-111-02-F-SV-P-TR, TSM-111-02-L-SV-P-TR, TSM-111-02-S-SV-P-TR, TSM-111-02-S-SV-TR) offer cuttable header variants with enhanced temperature performance.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 961111-6700-AR-TP is obsolete, requiring substitution for new designs and ongoing production. All listed substitute parts maintain functional compatibility through identical pitch, position count, contact type, and mounting configuration.

TE Connectivity 5-146129-9 provides the most direct functional equivalent with active product status and RoHS compliance. This part extends the operating temperature range to -65°C ~ 105°C and increases current rating to 3A. The insulation material transitions to Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP), offering improved thermal and mechanical properties.

Amphenol ICC BERGSTIK® series (95293-102-11LF, 95293-402-11LF, 95293-802-11LF) offers three variants with active status and RoHS compliance. These parts feature phosphor bronze contacts and extended operating temperature to -65°C ~ 130°C with 3A current rating. The 95293-102-11LF and 95293-802-11LF provide gold mating finishes, while 95293-402-11LF uses tin finish. All three maintain thermoplastic insulation material.

Samtec TSM series (TSM-111-02-F-SV-P, TSM-111-02-L-SV-P, TSM-111-02-F-SV-P-TR, TSM-111-02-L-SV-P-TR, TSM-111-02-S-SV-P-TR, TSM-111-02-S-SV-TR) provides cuttable header variants with active status and ROHS3 compliance. These parts feature phosphor bronze contacts, LCP insulation, and extended operating temperature to -55°C ~ 125°C. Variants differ in gold finish thickness and packaging format (tube, tape & reel, or standard).

All substitute parts meet UL94 V-0 flammability requirements and maintain MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity classification. Selection should prioritize active product status and compliance certifications appropriate for target applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 961111-6700-AR-TP be directly replaced with any of these substitutes?

A: Yes. All listed substitutes maintain the critical functional parameters: 11-position, 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch, male pin contacts, surface mount configuration, solder termination, and push-pull fastening. Physical and electrical compatibility is established through these parameters.

Q: What are the key differences between TE Connectivity and Amphenol ICC options?

A: TE Connectivity 5-146129-9 uses Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP) insulation and extends current rating to 3A. Amphenol ICC BERGSTIK® series maintains thermoplastic insulation with 3A current rating. Both offer extended operating temperature ranges (-65°C ~ 105°C for TE, -65°C ~ 130°C for Amphenol). Contact material differs: TE uses copper alloy, Amphenol uses phosphor bronze.

Q: How do Samtec TSM variants differ from each other?

A: Samtec TSM variants differ primarily in gold finish thickness and packaging format. TSM-111-02-F-SV-P features 3.00µin (0.076µm) gold finish in tube packaging. TSM-111-02-L-SV-P provides 10.0µin (0.25µm) gold finish. TSM-111-02-S-SV-P-TR and TSM-111-02-S-SV-TR offer 30.0µin (0.76µm) gold finish in tape & reel or standard packaging. All use phosphor bronze contacts and LCP insulation with -55°C ~ 125°C operating range.

Q: What is the significance of the contact length difference?

A: The original 961111-6700-AR-TP features 0.260" (6.60mm) mating contact length. Most substitutes provide 0.318" to 0.320" mating contact length. This difference affects mating depth and may require PCB layout adjustment. Verify mechanical compatibility with mating connector specifications before implementation.

Q: Are all substitutes RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. TE Connectivity and Amphenol ICC substitutes are RoHS Compliant. Samtec TSM series are ROHS3 Compliant. All meet environmental compliance requirements for current manufacturing standards.

Q: What packaging options are available?

A: Packaging varies by manufacturer. TE Connectivity 5-146129-9 is supplied in tube. Amphenol ICC BERGSTIK® series use bag packaging. Samtec TSM series offer tube, tape & reel (TR), or standard packaging depending on specific part number designation.

Q: Which substitute offers the widest operating temperature range?

A: Amphenol ICC BERGSTIK® series (95293-102-11LF, 95293-402-11LF, 95293-802-11LF) provide the widest operating temperature range at -65°C ~ 130°C, compared to the original -25°C ~ 105°C specification.
