Engineering Selection Recommendations

All Samtec TSM-113 series variants listed are electrically and mechanically equivalent to the TE Connectivity 1-146130-2 based on matching critical connector parameters. The following factors should guide component selection:

Product Status Consideration: The 1-146130-2 is obsolete. All substitute parts are active products from Samtec, ensuring ongoing availability and manufacturing support.

Compliance Status: The original TE part is RoHS non-compliant. All Samtec TSM-113 variants are ROHS3 Compliant, meeting current regulatory requirements for new designs and production.

Operating Temperature Range: The original part operates from -65°C to 125°C. Samtec substitutes operate from -55°C to 125°C. Applications requiring operation below -55°C require design review.

Contact Finish Specifications: Three contact finish thickness options are available among the substitutes:

3.00µin (0.076µm): TSM-113-01-F-DV series
10.0µin (0.25µm): TSM-113-01-G-DV series
30.0µin (0.76µm): TSM-113-01-H-DV series

The original part specifies 30.0µin (0.76µm) mating contact finish. TSM-113-01-H-DV and TSM-113-01-H-DV-A provide matching thickness specifications.

Post Contact Finish: The original part uses tin-lead plating on posts. Samtec substitutes offer tin or gold post finishes. Gold post finishes (TSM-113-01-G-DV and TSM-113-01-H-DV series) provide enhanced corrosion resistance.

Packaging Options: Samtec substitutes are available in Tube, Tape & Reel, or unspecified packaging. Tape & Reel variants support automated assembly processes.

Feature Variants: Select variants include Board Lock, Board Guide, or Pick and Place features. Standard variants without additional features provide direct functional equivalence.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can TSM-113 series connectors directly replace the TE Connectivity 1-146130-2 in existing designs?

A: Yes. All TSM-113 variants listed match the critical electrical and mechanical parameters: 26-position, 2-row configuration with 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch, male pin contacts, surface mount solder termination, and identical contact mating length. Physical and electrical compatibility is established.

Q: What is the difference between the TSM-113-01-F-DV, TSM-113-01-G-DV, and TSM-113-01-H-DV variants?

A: The primary difference is the gold plating thickness on mating contacts. TSM-113-01-F-DV specifies 3.00µin (0.076µm), TSM-113-01-G-DV specifies 10.0µin (0.25µm), and TSM-113-01-H-DV specifies 30.0µin (0.76µm). The original TE part specifies 30.0µin (0.76µm), making TSM-113-01-H-DV the closest match for contact finish thickness.

Q: Does the insulation height difference between the original part (0.090") and Samtec substitutes (0.100") affect compatibility?

A: The 0.010" (0.254mm) difference in insulation height is within acceptable mechanical tolerance for board-to-board connector applications. This variation does not affect electrical performance or mating compatibility with standard 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch receptacles.

Q: Are the Samtec TSM-113 variants suitable for applications requiring RoHS compliance?

A: Yes. All Samtec TSM-113 variants are ROHS3 Compliant. The original TE part is RoHS non-compliant. Samtec substitutes meet current regulatory requirements for new production and designs subject to RoHS directives.

Q: What is the difference between Tube and Tape & Reel packaging options?

A: Tube packaging is suitable for manual assembly and lower-volume applications. Tape & Reel packaging supports automated pick-and-place assembly processes and is standard for high-volume production. Both packaging formats contain the same connector component.

Q: Do the Samtec variants with "Board Lock" or "Board Guide" features affect compatibility?

A: Board Lock and Board Guide features are mechanical enhancements that improve connector stability during assembly and operation. These features do not prevent compatibility with standard receptacles or mating connectors. Selection depends on application requirements for mechanical retention.

Q: What is the operating temperature difference between the original part and Samtec substitutes?

A: The original TE part operates from -65°C to 125°C. Samtec TSM-113 variants operate from -55°C to 125°C. The 10°C difference at the lower temperature limit is acceptable for most commercial and industrial applications. Applications requiring operation below -55°C require design verification.

Q: Are all TSM-113 variants electrically interchangeable?

A: Yes. All TSM-113 variants listed share identical electrical specifications: 26 positions, 2 rows, 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch, male pin contacts, square contact shape, and LCP insulation material. Electrical performance is equivalent across all variants.

Q: What is the significance of the "Pick and Place" feature designation?

A: The Pick and Place feature indicates the connector is optimized for automated assembly equipment. This designation does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility but indicates suitability for high-volume manufacturing processes.
