IPD1-07-S Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The IPD1-07-S is a 7-position rectangular connector housing manufactured by Samtec Inc. as part of the Mini Mate® IPD1 series. This receptacle connector features a 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch, female socket contacts, and crimp termination with latch lock fastening. The part is actively produced and RoHS3 compliant, making it suitable for applications requiring standard rectangular connectivity in compact form factors. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters are met, enabling component interchangeability for procurement flexibility and supply chain continuity.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the IPD1-07-S are qualified based on the following critical parameters that determine functional and mechanical compatibility:

• Connector Type: Receptacle housing
• Contact Type: Female Socket
• Number of Positions: 7
• Pitch: 0.100" (2.54mm)
• Number of Rows: 1
• Mounting Type: Free Hanging (In-Line)
• Contact Termination: Crimp
• Fastening Type: Latch Lock
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)

The identified substitute parts—Molex 0050579707 and TE Connectivity 104257-6—meet all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. Variations in insulation material, color, and operating temperature range do not affect substitutability for this connector housing category, as these parameters are secondary to the core interface specifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three parts—IPD1-07-S, 0050579707, and 104257-6—are actively produced and meet RoHS compliance requirements. Selection between these parts should be based on:

• Supply availability and lead time requirements
• Specific application temperature range needs (TE Connectivity 104257-6 supports -65°C minimum vs. Molex -40°C minimum)
• Color specification requirements (Samtec IPD1-07-S is white; Molex and TE Connectivity alternatives are black)
• Existing connector ecosystem compatibility within the application

All parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical interface specifications, ensuring direct substitutability in 7-position, 2.54mm pitch receptacle applications with crimp termination and latch lock fastening.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Molex 0050579707 directly replace the Samtec IPD1-07-S?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical connector type, contact type, position count, pitch, row configuration, mounting type, termination method, and fastening mechanism. The primary difference is housing color (black vs. white) and insulation material composition, which do not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility.

Q: What is the difference between the TE Connectivity 104257-6 and the other substitutes?

A: The TE Connectivity 104257-6 supports a wider operating temperature range (-65°C to 105°C) compared to the Molex part (-40°C to 105°C). All other critical parameters remain equivalent. The Samtec part does not specify an operating temperature range.

Q: Are contacts included with these connector housings?

A: No. All three parts are housings only. Contacts must be sourced separately and are not included in the package.

Q: Does the difference in insulation material affect substitutability?

A: No. For this connector housing category, insulation material variations (Polyamide, Polyester Glass Filled, or Thermoplastic) do not affect the core substitution criteria. Material selection is application-dependent but does not prevent interchangeability of the housing itself.

Q: Are all parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The Samtec IPD1-07-S and Molex 0050579707 are ROHS3 compliant. The TE Connectivity 104257-6 is RoHS compliant. All parts meet environmental compliance standards.
