Engineering Selection Recommendations

The M80-8400545 is the recommended substitute for the obsolete B5741-105-F-N-2. Key selection factors include:

  • Product Status: The M80-8400545 is an active production part with confirmed inventory availability (984 pcs), ensuring long-term supply continuity compared to the obsolete B5741-105-F-N-2.

  • Regulatory Compliance: The M80-8400545 achieves ROHS3 compliance, whereas the B5741-105-F-N-2 is RoHS non-compliant. This compliance upgrade aligns with current environmental and regulatory requirements for automotive, general purpose, and military applications.

  • Mechanical Compatibility: Both connectors maintain identical mating pitch, mounting configuration, and fastening mechanisms, ensuring direct PCB layout compatibility without redesign.

  • Electrical Performance: Both parts support the same operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C) and share identical contact materials and finishes, maintaining electrical performance characteristics across thermal cycles.

  • Packaging: The M80-8400545 is supplied in tube packaging, facilitating automated assembly processes.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can M80-8400545 be used as a direct replacement for B5741-105-F-N-2 on existing PCBs?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical mating pitch (0.079" / 2.00mm), through-hole mounting configuration, and footprint dimensions. No PCB redesign is required.

Q: What are the key differences between these two parts?

A: The primary differences are product status and regulatory compliance. The M80-8400545 is an active production part with ROHS3 compliance, while the B5741-105-F-N-2 is obsolete and RoHS non-compliant. The M80-8400545 also features a longer contact post (0.126" vs 0.051") and higher voltage rating (800V vs 120V).

Q: Are the contact post lengths interchangeable?

A: The B5741-105-F-N-2 has a contact post length of 0.051" (1.30mm), while the M80-8400545 has 0.126" (3.20mm). For applications requiring specific post engagement depths, verify PCB hole depth and mating connector specifications before substitution.

Q: What is the voltage rating difference, and does it affect compatibility?

A: The B5741-105-F-N-2 is rated for 120V, while the M80-8400545 is rated for 800V. The higher voltage rating of the substitute part does not create compatibility issues; it provides additional safety margin for applications operating at or below 120V.

Q: Does the insulation material change affect performance?

A: The B5741-105-F-N-2 uses polyester glass-filled insulation, while the M80-8400545 uses polyamide (PA46) nylon 4/6 glass-filled insulation. Both materials maintain UL94 V-0 flammability ratings and support the same operating temperature range. Material selection does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility.

Q: Is the M80-8400545 available in the same packaging as the original part?

A: The M80-8400545 is supplied in tube packaging. The original B5741-105-F-N-2 packaging specification was not provided. Verify packaging requirements for your assembly process.
