Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the OSTHP065052 is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

• Position Count & Pitch: Substitute must provide exactly 6 positions at 0.200" (5.08mm) pitch spacing to ensure mechanical and electrical compatibility with mating connectors and PCB layouts.
• Connector Type: Substitute must be a plug with female sockets to maintain proper mating orientation with corresponding header pins.
• Termination Method: IDC (Insulation Displacement Contact) termination is required for wire connection compatibility.
• Mounting Configuration: Free hanging (in-line) mounting type must be preserved for identical installation geometry.
• Electrical Ratings: Substitute must meet or exceed 300V UL voltage rating and support 18-22 AWG wire gauges.
• Operating Temperature Range: Substitute must function across the -30°C to 105°C operating window.
• Compliance Standards: RoHS3 compliance and UL94 V-0 flammability rating are mandatory for regulatory equivalence.

The Würth Elektronik 691359740006 satisfies all substitution criteria while providing enhanced specifications in current rating, contact materials, and temperature range.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Würth Elektronik 691359740006 is a direct functional equivalent to the obsolete OSTHP065052. Both components maintain identical mechanical and electrical specifications across all critical substitution parameters: 6-position configuration, 5.08mm pitch, IDC termination, free-hanging mounting, 300V UL rating, and 18-22 AWG wire support.

The substitute component provides additional engineering advantages: an extended operating temperature range (-40°C to 115°C versus -30°C to 105°C), specified current rating of 7A, tin-plated copper alloy contacts, and polyamide housing. Both components achieve ROHS3 compliance and UL94 V-0 flammability certification, meeting regulatory requirements for equivalent applications.

Selection of the Würth Elektronik substitute is appropriate for direct replacement in existing designs or new implementations requiring this connector class. The enhanced specifications present no compatibility concerns with the original OSTHP065052 application envelope.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Würth Elektronik 691359740006 directly replace the OSTHP065052 in existing assemblies?

A: Yes. Both components share identical mechanical pitch (5.08mm), position count (6), connector type (plug with female sockets), termination method (IDC), and mounting configuration (free-hanging in-line). Mating compatibility with existing header connectors and PCB layouts is preserved.

Q: What is the significance of the 90° plug wire entry specification on the substitute part?

A: The 691359740006 features 90° wire entry orientation, whereas the OSTHP065052 does not specify wire entry angle. This indicates the substitute accepts wires at a right angle to the connector body. Verify that your application's wire routing accommodates this geometry before selection.

Q: Are there compliance or certification differences between these parts?

A: Both components are ROHS3 compliant and achieve UL94 V-0 flammability rating. The substitute carries REACH Affected status, while the original is REACH Unaffected. Confirm REACH compliance requirements for your end application and geographic market.

Q: Does the extended operating temperature range of the substitute affect compatibility?

A: No. The substitute's -40°C to 115°C range encompasses the original part's -30°C to 105°C specification. The wider temperature envelope presents no compatibility issues and may provide additional design margin for temperature-sensitive applications.

Q: What is the packaging difference between these components?

A: The OSTHP065052 packaging specification is not provided. The 691359740006 is supplied in bulk packaging. Confirm bulk packaging meets your procurement and handling requirements.
