Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the AWP06-7541-T-R is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Connector type (Socket)
• Number of positions (6)
• Pitch spacing (0.100" / 2.54mm)
• Row configuration (2 rows at 0.100" spacing)
• Cable termination method (IDC)
• Wire type compatibility (Ribbon Cable)
• Contact finish (Tin)
• Mounting configuration (Free Hanging In-Line)

The substitute part AWP 06-7540-T meets all these criteria and is manufactured by the same supplier within the same base product family (AWP 06 series).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The AWP 06-7540-T is the direct substitute for the obsolete AWP06-7541-T-R. Both connectors share identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters. The primary distinction is product status: the substitute part is currently active in production, whereas the original part is obsolete.

The substitute part carries ROHS3 compliance certification, providing enhanced environmental and regulatory alignment for new designs and procurement cycles. Both parts maintain identical MSL ratings, compliance certifications (REACH, ECCN), and tariff classifications.

The packaging difference (tray for the substitute versus unspecified for the original) does not affect functional compatibility and reflects standard industry practice for active production components.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are the AWP06-7541-T-R and AWP 06-7540-T mechanically interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both connectors feature identical pitch (0.100"), row configuration (2 rows at 0.100" spacing), mounting type (free hanging in-line), and contact arrangement. They are mechanically interchangeable in ribbon cable applications.

Q: What is the difference between these two parts?

A: The primary differences are product status (obsolete versus active) and packaging format (unspecified versus tray). The substitute part also carries ROHS3 compliance certification. All electrical and mechanical specifications are identical.

Q: Can I use the AWP 06-7540-T as a direct replacement in existing designs?

A: Yes. The substitute part meets all functional requirements of the original part and is suitable for direct replacement in applications currently using the AWP06-7541-T-R.

Q: Why is the original part obsolete?

A: Product obsolescence is determined by the manufacturer. The active substitute part (AWP 06-7540-T) provides equivalent functionality and is the recommended component for ongoing procurement.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between these parts?

A: Both parts are REACH unaffected and classified as EAR99. The substitute part carries ROHS3 compliance, which the original part specification does not indicate. Both maintain identical MSL ratings and tariff classifications.

Q: What packaging options are available?

A: The substitute part is supplied in tray packaging. Original packaging specifications for the obsolete part are not detailed in available documentation.
