Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the OSTV712A151 is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

• 12-position configuration with single level
• 0.295" (7.50mm) pitch spacing
• 90° right-angle header orientation
• Female socket type
• Solder termination
• Through-hole mounting
• 10 A current capacity at 300 V
• Phosphor bronze contacts
• Thermoplastic housing with UL94 V-0 rating
• Retention latches
• ROHS3 compliance

The substitute part V712A1510000G from Amphenol Anytek meets all critical electrical and mechanical parameters required for direct substitution. The substitute maintains identical position count, pitch, orientation, termination method, and current/voltage ratings. Both parts utilize phosphor bronze contacts in thermoplastic housings with equivalent flammability certification.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The V712A1510000G from Amphenol Anytek is a direct functional equivalent to the obsolete OSTV712A151. All critical electrical parameters—current capacity, voltage rating, and contact material—are identical. Mechanical compatibility is confirmed through matching pitch, position count, orientation, and mounting type. Both components maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, satisfying regulatory requirements for equivalent component selection.

The substitute part carries active product status, ensuring availability for current and future procurement cycles. The operating temperature range of the substitute (-40°C ~ 115°C) exceeds the original specification (-30°C ~ 105°C), providing enhanced thermal performance margin. Contact mating finish is specified for the substitute (Tin), whereas this parameter was not provided for the original part.

Selection of V712A1510000G eliminates obsolescence risk while maintaining full electrical and mechanical compatibility with existing circuit designs and PCB layouts.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can V712A1510000G be used as a direct replacement for OSTV712A151 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical ratings (10 A, 300 V), mechanical configuration (12 positions, 7.50mm pitch, 90° orientation), and termination method (solder). PCB footprints and circuit performance remain unchanged.

Q: What is the primary difference between these parts?

A: The OSTV712A151 is obsolete, while V712A1510000G is active. The substitute offers an extended operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 115°C versus -30°C ~ 105°C) and includes specified tin contact mating finish.

Q: Are compliance certifications equivalent?

A: Yes. Both parts are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and carry UL94 V-0 flammability rating. Regulatory requirements are satisfied by either component.

Q: Does packaging differ between these parts?

A: The original part packaging was not specified. The substitute is supplied in bulk packaging. Verify packaging requirements for your procurement process.

Q: Are there any mechanical dimension differences?

A: No. Contact tail length (0.138" / 4.60mm) and all critical mechanical parameters are identical, ensuring compatibility with existing PCB designs.
