Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the PCE-B-07 are identified based on strict electrical and mechanical compatibility criteria. The following parameters must match or exceed the original specification:

• Connector type: Receptacle
• Number of positions: 7
• Pitch - mating: 0.100" (2.54mm)
• Mounting type: Board edge, through hole, right angle
• Termination method: Solder
• Fastening type: Push-pull
• Contact finish - mating: Tin
• Insulation material: Polyamide (PA), Nylon
• Voltage rating: 250VAC minimum
• Material flammability rating: UL94 V-0
• RoHS compliance: ROHS3 Compliant

The Molex 0038001337 connector satisfies all mandatory compatibility parameters and is classified as an equivalent substitute for the obsolete PCE-B-07.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Molex 0038001337 is a direct equivalent substitute for the obsolete PCE-B-07. Both connectors meet identical mechanical and electrical specifications for board edge, 7-position, 0.100" pitch receptacle applications. The Molex part maintains full compatibility with existing PCB designs and mating connectors.

The Molex 0038001337 offers extended operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 105°C versus 0°C ~ 75°C) and higher current rating (4A versus 2.5A), providing enhanced performance margins for applications originally designed around the PCE-B-07. Both parts carry ROHS3 compliance and UL94 V-0 flammability certification, meeting regulatory requirements for automotive, medical, and telecommunications applications.

The active product status of the Molex 0038001337 ensures long-term availability and supply chain continuity compared to the obsolete PCE-B-07.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Molex 0038001337 be used as a direct replacement for the PCE-B-07 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The Molex 0038001337 matches all critical mechanical and electrical parameters of the PCE-B-07, including connector type, position count, pitch, mounting configuration, and electrical ratings. No design modifications are required for substitution.

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

A: The primary differences are product status and performance margins. The PCE-B-07 is obsolete, while the Molex 0038001337 is active. The Molex part provides extended operating temperature range (-40°C to 105°C versus 0°C to 75°C) and higher current capacity (4A versus 2.5A).

Q: Are there any packaging differences between the PCE-B-07 and 0038001337?

A: The PCE-B-07 packaging information is not specified in available documentation. The Molex 0038001337 is supplied in tray packaging.

Q: Do both connectors meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both the PCE-B-07 and Molex 0038001337 are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and carry UL94 V-0 material flammability certification. Both have MSL rating of 1 (unlimited moisture sensitivity).

Q: Which applications are suitable for the Molex 0038001337 substitute?

A: The Molex 0038001337 is suitable for automotive, general purpose, medical, and telecommunications applications, matching the original PCE-B-07 application scope.
