Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

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

Primary Equivalence Criteria:

• Connector Type: USB-A (USB TYPE-A), Stacked
• Number of Contacts: 8 positions
• Gender: Receptacle
• Specifications: USB 2.0 compliance
• Mounting Type: Through Hole, Right Angle
• Mounting Feature: Horizontal orientation
• Termination: Solder
• Features: Board Lock functionality
• Number of Ports: 2
• Mating Cycles: 1500 minimum
• Material Flammability Rating: UL94 V-0

All five substitute parts listed meet these primary equivalence criteria. Secondary parameter variations (insulation color, shell material, operating temperature range, current rating specifications, and compliance certifications) are documented in the comparison table to support engineering selection decisions based on specific application requirements.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Selection (Same Manufacturer): USB-A-D-F-B-TH (Samtec Inc.) is the preferred substitute when maintaining single-source supplier strategy. This part shares identical electrical specifications, mounting characteristics, and operating temperature range with the original USB-A-D-S-W-TH-R. The only documented difference is insulation color (Black vs. White) and RoHS3 compliance certification. Inventory availability is higher at 1276 units.

Extended Temperature Range Applications: For applications requiring operating temperatures below -50°C or above 85°C, the following parts support extended ranges:

• 1002-004-01010 (CNC Tech): -40°C ~ 105°C
• 5787745-4 (TE Connectivity): -55°C ~ 85°C
• 5787745-5 (TE Connectivity): -55°C ~ 85°C
• AU-Y1008-2 (Assmann WSW): -55°C ~ 85°C

High-Volume Availability: 1002-004-01010 (CNC Tech) provides the highest current inventory at 16311 units, supporting applications with extended lead-time requirements or high-volume production needs.

Compliance-Specific Selection: All substitute parts maintain UL94 V-0 flammability rating and Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited). Parts with explicit ROHS3 Compliant certification include USB-A-D-F-B-TH, 1002-004-01010, 5787745-5, and AU-Y1008-2.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can USB-A-D-F-B-TH replace USB-A-D-S-W-TH-R in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both connectors are stacked USB 2.0 Type-A receptacles with identical contact count (8), mounting configuration (through-hole, right-angle, horizontal), termination method (solder), and board lock features. Operating temperature range, voltage rating, and mating cycle specifications are identical. The insulation color differs (Black vs. White), which does not affect electrical or mechanical function.

Q: What is the difference between the two TE Connectivity parts (5787745-4 and 5787745-5)?

A: Both parts share identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The primary difference is RoHS compliance certification: 5787745-5 carries explicit ROHS3 Compliant status, while 5787745-4 is listed as RoHS Compliant without specific revision designation. Contact finish options are identical (Gold or Gold-Palladium). Inventory levels differ: 5787745-4 has 7282 units available versus 1067 units for 5787745-5.

Q: Are there current rating differences between substitute parts?

A: Yes. The original USB-A-D-S-W-TH-R does not specify current rating. Substitute parts document the following: 1002-004-01010 and AU-Y1008-2 are rated at 1.5A, while 5787745-4 and 5787745-5 are rated at 1A per contact. These ratings do not affect substitution eligibility for USB 2.0 applications, as all parts meet the functional requirements of the original specification.

Q: Which substitute part has the widest operating temperature range?

A: 1002-004-01010 (CNC Tech) supports -40°C ~ 105°C, providing the widest operating range among all listed substitutes. The original USB-A-D-S-W-TH-R and USB-A-D-F-B-TH are limited to -50°C ~ 85°C. The TE Connectivity and Assmann WSW parts support -55°C ~ 85°C.

Q: Does insulation color affect connector compatibility?

A: No. Insulation color is a visual identification feature only and does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility. The original part features White insulation, while most substitutes use Black insulation. USB-A-D-F-B-TH (Samtec) and AU-Y1008-2 (Assmann WSW) are available with White insulation if color matching is required for assembly documentation or traceability purposes.

Q: What is the significance of Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited)?

A: MSL 1 (Unlimited) indicates the component has no moisture sensitivity restrictions and does not require special handling, storage, or baking procedures prior to soldering. All substitute parts carry this designation, matching the original specification.

Q: Can I use AU-Y1008-2 if voltage rating is not specified?

A: The AU-Y1008-2 datasheet does not document a specific voltage rating in the provided parameters. However, this part is functionally equivalent across all other critical parameters (connector type, contact count, mounting configuration, termination, board lock, mating cycles, flammability rating). For applications where voltage rating documentation is required for compliance purposes, USB-A-D-F-B-TH, 1002-004-01010, 5787745-4, or 5787745-5 provide explicit 30V or 30VAC ratings.

Q: Which substitute offers the best inventory availability?

A: 1002-004-01010 (CNC Tech) provides the highest current inventory at 16311 units, followed by AU-Y1008-2 (Assmann WSW) at 11360 units. These options support applications with immediate delivery requirements or high-volume production schedules.
