0.050" (1.27mm) mating pitch and row spacing
Surface mount solder termination
Shrouded 4-wall construction
Push-pull fastening mechanism
Male pin contact type
Liquid Crystal Polymer insulation
Phosphor Bronze contact material
Gold mating surface finish
Tin post finish
UL94 V-0 flammability rating
Moisture Sensitivity Level 1

Secondary Compatibility Factors:

Operating temperature range (minimum -55°C, maximum 105°C or higher)
Current rating (minimum 0.5A per contact)

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All substitute parts listed are active production components from Samtec Inc. and maintain full compatibility with the TE Connectivity 5-147383-2 for board-to-board connector applications requiring 20-position, dual-row, 0.050" pitch surface mount headers with push-pull fastening.

Compliance Status: All substitute parts carry ROHS3 compliance, which exceeds the RoHS Compliant status of the original part. All parts are classified under ECCN EAR99 and HTSUS code 8536.69.4040, consistent with the main part. Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited) is maintained across all options.

Product Availability: Samtec substitute parts demonstrate higher inventory levels than the main part, with stock quantities ranging from 919 to 2000 units. The TFM-110-22-S-D-A-P-TR variant in Tape & Reel packaging offers the highest inventory (2000 units) and matches the original part's packaging format.

Electrical Performance: Substitute parts from the Samtec Tiger Eye™ series provide enhanced electrical ratings. Current capacity ranges from 2.9A to 3.1A per contact, exceeding the 0.5A rating of the original part. Voltage rating of 275VAC is specified for all substitutes, providing additional design margin for applications requiring voltage specifications.

Temperature Range: Samtec substitutes operate across -55°C to 125°C, which encompasses the original part's -65°C to 105°C range. The upper temperature limit of 125°C provides additional thermal margin for demanding applications.

Feature Variations: Substitute parts offer optional features including Board Lock (LC designation), Board Guide, and Pick and Place capability. These features do not affect functional substitution but provide design flexibility for specific assembly or mechanical retention requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can Samtec Tiger Eye™ TFC and TFM series connectors directly replace the TE Connectivity 5-147383-2?

A: Yes. All listed Samtec parts maintain the critical functional parameters: 20-position, dual-row configuration; 0.050" (1.27mm) mating pitch and row spacing; surface mount solder termination; shrouded 4-wall construction; push-pull fastening; and male pin contact type. Mechanical and electrical compatibility is established through these matching parameters.

Q: What is the difference between TFC and TFM series substitutes?

A: TFC series connectors feature square contact geometry with insulation height of 0.366" (9.30mm) and current rating of 3.1A per contact. TFM series connectors also feature square contacts but with insulation height of 0.360" (9.14mm) and current rating of 2.9A per contact. Both series are functionally compatible with the original part.

Q: How do contact finish thickness variations affect substitution?

A: Contact finish thickness variations (ranging from 3.00µin to 30.0µin for mating surface gold plating) do not affect functional compatibility for board-to-board connector applications. All finishes provide adequate electrical conductivity and corrosion resistance. Selection may be based on specific environmental or reliability requirements.

Q: What packaging options are available for substitute parts?

A: Samtec substitutes are available in Tube packaging (standard for most variants) or Tape & Reel (TR) packaging. The TFM-110-22-S-D-A-P-TR and TFM-110-22-S-D-K-TR variants are supplied in Tape & Reel format, matching the original part's packaging specification for automated assembly processes.

Q: Are there feature differences between substitute variants?

A: Yes. Variants include optional Board Lock (LC designation) for enhanced mechanical retention, Board Guide for improved alignment, and Pick and Place capability for automated assembly. The base TFM-110-22-S-D-A variant includes Board Guide as standard. These features do not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility but provide design flexibility.

Q: What is the significance of the -LC designation in part numbers?

A: The -LC designation indicates Board Lock feature, which provides positive mechanical locking between mated connectors. This feature enhances retention in applications subject to vibration or mechanical stress but does not affect functional compatibility with the original part.

Q: How do operating temperature ranges compare?

A: The original TE Connectivity part operates from -65°C to 105°C. All Samtec substitutes operate from -55°C to 125°C. The substitute parts' upper temperature limit of 125°C provides additional thermal margin, while the lower limit of -55°C remains within acceptable range for most applications requiring the original part's -65°C minimum.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. All substitute parts carry ROHS3 compliance, which exceeds the RoHS Compliant designation of the original part. This ensures compliance with current and future environmental regulations.

Q: What inventory considerations apply to substitute selection?

A: Samtec substitutes demonstrate significantly higher inventory availability than the original part. The TFM-110-22-S-D-A-P-TR variant offers the highest stock level at 2000 units. For high-volume production or long-term supply assurance, Tape & Reel packaged variants provide optimal inventory depth.

Q: Can substitute parts be used in automotive, medical, or military applications?

A: The original TE Connectivity part is specified for automotive, general purpose, medical, military, and telecommunications applications. Samtec substitutes are active production components with equivalent compliance certifications (UL94 V-0, ROHS3, EAR99, MSL 1). Application suitability depends on specific design requirements and qualification procedures established by the end user.
