3M 150216-2000-RB Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The 3M 150216-2000-RB is a 16-position rectangular receptacle connector with 0.079" (2.00mm) pitch, designed for surface mount applications with gold-plated mating contacts. This connector operates across -55°C to 105°C and carries a 1A current rating at 500VDC. The part is active in production and RoHS compliant, with unlimited moisture sensitivity rating (MSL 1).

Equivalent and substitute parts are identified when design requirements permit tolerance of specified parameter variations, such as operating temperature range, voltage rating, current capacity, or contact material composition, while maintaining core functional compatibility in 16-position, 2.00mm pitch, surface mount receptacle applications.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 3M 150216-2000-RB is determined by strict equivalence in the following core parameters:

16-position configuration with 2-row layout
0.079" (2.00mm) mating pitch and row spacing
Surface mount solder termination
Push-pull fastening mechanism
Female socket contact type with gold mating finish
UL94 V-0 flammability rating

Substitute parts are grouped into two categories based on allowed parameter deviations:

Category A (Hirose Electric): A3-16DA-2SV(71) and A3A-16DA-2SV(71) are substitutable when operating temperature range reduction from 105°C to 85°C maximum is acceptable, voltage rating reduction from 500VDC to 200VAC is acceptable, and contact material change from copper alloy to phosphor bronze is acceptable. Insulation material changes from thermoplastic to polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) are permitted.

Category B (Samtec Inc.): TLE-108-01-G-DV-A, TLE-108-01-G-DV-A-K-TR, and TLE-108-01-G-DV-K are substitutable when current rating increase from 1A to 3.2A per contact is acceptable, operating temperature range extension to 125°C maximum is acceptable, and contact material change from copper alloy to phosphor bronze is acceptable. Insulation material changes to liquid crystal polymer (LCP) are permitted. Pass-through connector configuration is acceptable.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All substitute parts maintain active product status and RoHS compliance. Selection between substitute groups depends on application-specific thermal and electrical requirements.

Hirose A3-16DA-2SV(71) and A3A-16DA-2SV(71) are suitable for applications where maximum operating temperature does not exceed 85°C and voltage requirements do not exceed 200VAC. The A3A-16DA-2SV(71) variant includes board guide features. Both parts are ROHS3 compliant with unlimited moisture sensitivity rating.

Samtec TLE-108 series parts (TLE-108-01-G-DV-A, TLE-108-01-G-DV-A-K-TR, TLE-108-01-G-DV-K) are suitable for applications requiring extended operating temperature to 125°C and higher current capacity at 3.2A per contact. TLE-108-01-G-DV-A-K-TR is packaged in tape and reel format for automated assembly. TLE-108-01-G-DV-K includes pick-and-place features. All Samtec variants are ROHS3 compliant with unlimited moisture sensitivity rating. REACH status differs: TLE-108-01-G-DV-A and TLE-108-01-G-DV-A-K-TR are REACH Affected; TLE-108-01-G-DV-K is REACH Unaffected.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can Hirose A3-16DA-2SV(71) be used as a direct replacement for 3M 150216-2000-RB?

A: Yes, when application requirements permit operating temperature maximum of 85°C instead of 105°C, voltage rating of 200VAC instead of 500VDC, and contact material change from copper alloy to phosphor bronze. All core mechanical and electrical interface parameters remain equivalent.

Q: What is the primary difference between Samtec TLE-108-01-G-DV-A and TLE-108-01-G-DV-A-K-TR?

A: Packaging format differs. TLE-108-01-G-DV-A is supplied in tube packaging; TLE-108-01-G-DV-A-K-TR is supplied in tape and reel format with pick-and-place capability. All electrical and mechanical specifications are identical.

Q: Are Samtec TLE-108 series connectors compatible with the same mating plugs as the 3M 150216-2000-RB?

A: Yes. Both maintain 16-position, 0.079" (2.00mm) pitch, 2-row configuration with push-pull fastening and female socket contacts. Mating compatibility is preserved.

Q: What is the significance of the board guide feature in A3A-16DA-2SV(71)?

A: The board guide feature provides mechanical alignment assistance during assembly. This is a functional enhancement that does not affect electrical compatibility or mating interface specifications.

Q: Does operating temperature range extension in Samtec parts affect reliability compared to the 3M original?

A: Operating temperature range specification indicates the validated thermal operating envelope. Samtec TLE-108 series parts are rated to 125°C maximum, which extends the usable temperature range beyond the 3M 150216-2000-RB specification of 105°C maximum. Selection depends on application thermal requirements.

Q: What packaging considerations apply when selecting substitute parts?

A: 3M 150216-2000-RB is supplied in tray packaging. Hirose parts are supplied in tube packaging. Samtec TLE-108-01-G-DV-A-K-TR is supplied in tape and reel format for automated pick-and-place assembly. Tube and tray packaging require manual handling; tape and reel format integrates with automated assembly equipment.
