Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the OSTHM076080 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Electrical Specifications: Current rating (8 A), voltage rating (250 V), and wire gauge compatibility (12-28 AWG) must remain unchanged
• Physical Configuration: 7 positions per level, 0.400" (10.16mm) pitch, and vertical with board mating orientation are non-negotiable for PCB layout compatibility
• Termination Method: Screwless push-in spring termination with side interlocking features must be preserved
• Environmental Compliance: RoHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating are required for regulatory and reliability standards
• Material Specifications: Thermoplastic housing with brass contact plating ensures electrical and mechanical performance equivalence

The substitute part HM0760800000G by Amphenol Anytek meets all these criteria while offering improved product status (active) and enhanced operating temperature range.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The HM0760800000G from Amphenol Anytek is a direct functional equivalent to the OSTHM076080. Both components maintain identical electrical ratings, physical dimensions, and termination characteristics required for PCB integration. The substitute part offers the advantage of active product status, ensuring continued availability and manufacturing support. Both components satisfy ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 moisture sensitivity requirements, meeting current regulatory standards. The enhanced operating temperature range of the substitute part (-40°C ~ 115°C versus -30°C ~ 105°C) provides additional thermal margin for extended application environments. The tin plating on the brass contacts of the substitute part enhances corrosion resistance compared to unplated brass.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can HM0760800000G be used as a direct replacement for OSTHM076080 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both components share identical pitch (0.400"), position count (7), current rating (8 A), voltage rating (250 V), wire gauge range (12-28 AWG), and termination method (screwless push-in spring). PCB footprints and assembly processes require no modification.

Q: What is the difference in contact plating between the two parts?

A: The OSTHM076080 uses unplated brass contacts, while the HM0760800000G features tin-plated brass contacts. Tin plating provides enhanced corrosion resistance and is suitable for applications requiring extended shelf life or exposure to corrosive environments.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: The OSTHM076080 is supplied in standard packaging, while the HM0760800000G is supplied in bulk packaging. Both maintain identical component specifications and performance characteristics.

Q: Does the wider operating temperature range of HM0760800000G affect compatibility?

A: No. The extended range (-40°C ~ 115°C for the substitute versus -30°C ~ 105°C for the original) represents an enhancement that maintains full backward compatibility. Applications operating within the original temperature range experience no performance differences.

Q: Are both parts RoHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. Both the OSTHM076080 and HM0760800000G are ROHS3 compliant and carry MSL 1 (unlimited) moisture sensitivity ratings, meeting current regulatory requirements for electronic component procurement.
