TE Connectivity 5-147383-9 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The TE Connectivity 5-147383-9 is a surface mount rectangular connector header designed for board-to-board applications. This connector features 100 positions arranged in 2 rows with 0.050" (1.27mm) pitch spacing, shrouded 4-wall construction, and push-pull fastening. The part is classified as Active product status with full RoHS compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating (MSL 1).

Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters align with the main part specifications, enabling direct functional replacement in applications where the connector serves identical circuit interface requirements.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the TE Connectivity 5-147383-9 are identified based on alignment of the following critical parameters:

Electrical Compatibility Parameters:

• Connector type (Header)
• Contact type (Male Pin)
• Number of positions (100)
• Number of rows (2)
• Pitch spacing (0.050" / 1.27mm)
• Row spacing (0.050" / 1.27mm)
• Termination method (Solder)
• Fastening type (Push-Pull)

Mechanical Compatibility Parameters:

• Mounting type (Surface Mount)
• Shrouding configuration (Shrouded - 4 Wall)
• Insulation material (Liquid Crystal Polymer)
• Contact material (Phosphor Bronze)
• Contact finish - mating surface (Gold)
• Contact finish - post (Tin)

Compliance Parameters:

• Material flammability rating (UL94 V-0)
• RoHS compliance status
• Moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1)

The three Samtec Tiger Eye™ TFM series parts (TFM-150-32-S-D-A, TFM-150-32-S-D-LC, TFM-150-32-S-D-LC-TR) meet all critical electrical and mechanical parameters required for functional substitution. Variations in packaging format (Tube vs. Tape & Reel) and feature options (Board Guide vs. Board Lock) do not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three Samtec Tiger Eye™ TFM series substitute parts maintain Active product status and comply with UL94 V-0 flammability requirements and RoHS3 compliance standards. The substitute parts demonstrate enhanced electrical performance with current ratings of 2.9A per contact compared to the main part's 0.5A per contact rating, and include specified voltage ratings of 275VAC.

Packaging Considerations:

• TFM-150-32-S-D-A (Tube packaging): Suitable for manual assembly and lower-volume production environments.
• TFM-150-32-S-D-LC (Tube packaging): Includes Board Lock feature for enhanced mechanical retention.
• TFM-150-32-S-D-LC-TR (Tape & Reel packaging): Optimized for automated pick-and-place assembly processes and high-volume manufacturing.

Physical Dimension Differences:

Samtec substitute parts exhibit increased contact length (0.139" vs. 0.120") and insulation height (0.435" vs. 0.367"), resulting in higher mated stacking heights. These dimensional variations require verification against PCB layout constraints and mating connector specifications before implementation.

Feature Differentiation:

The TE Connectivity main part includes Board Lock and Pick and Place features. Samtec TFM-150-32-S-D-A includes Board Guide feature, while TFM-150-32-S-D-LC and TFM-150-32-S-D-LC-TR include Board Lock feature. Feature selection depends on specific application requirements for mechanical guidance and retention.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can Samtec TFM-150-32-S-D-A, TFM-150-32-S-D-LC, and TFM-150-32-S-D-LC-TR parts directly replace the TE Connectivity 5-147383-9?

A: These parts share identical electrical and mechanical specifications for connector type, contact configuration, pitch spacing, mounting method, and termination. Direct functional replacement is supported for applications where the increased contact length and insulation height do not conflict with PCB layout or mating connector specifications.

Q: What is the difference between the three Samtec substitute options?

A: The primary differences are packaging format and mechanical features. TFM-150-32-S-D-A is supplied in Tube packaging with Board Guide feature. TFM-150-32-S-D-LC is supplied in Tube packaging with Board Lock feature. TFM-150-32-S-D-LC-TR is supplied in Tape & Reel format with Board Lock feature. All three maintain identical electrical and core mechanical specifications.

Q: Are there dimensional compatibility concerns when substituting these parts?

A: Yes. The Samtec parts have increased contact length (0.139" vs. 0.120") and insulation height (0.435" vs. 0.367"). These differences affect mated stacking heights and may impact PCB layout, connector cavity depth, and overall assembly height. Verification against specific application requirements is necessary.

Q: Do the substitute parts support the same current and voltage requirements?

A: The Samtec substitute parts support higher current ratings (2.9A per contact vs. 0.5A per contact) and include specified voltage ratings (275VAC). Applications requiring only the original 0.5A per contact specification will operate within the substitute parts' electrical envelope. Applications requiring higher current or voltage specifications benefit from the enhanced ratings of the substitute parts.

Q: What are the compliance differences between the main part and substitutes?

A: The main part carries RoHS Compliant status with Vendor Undefined REACH status. All three Samtec substitutes carry ROHS3 Compliant status and REACH Unaffected status (with the exception of TFM-150-32-S-D-LC-TR, which does not specify REACH status). All parts maintain UL94 V-0 flammability rating and MSL 1 moisture sensitivity level.

Q: Which substitute part is recommended for automated assembly?

A: TFM-150-32-S-D-LC-TR, supplied in Tape & Reel format, is optimized for automated pick-and-place assembly processes. Tube-packaged options (TFM-150-32-S-D-A and TFM-150-32-S-D-LC) are suitable for manual assembly and lower-volume production.

Q: Are the contact shapes compatible between the main part and substitutes?

A: The main part features circular contact shapes, while all Samtec substitutes feature square contact shapes. Both geometries are compatible with standard 0.050" (1.27mm) pitch receptacle connectors. Contact shape differences do not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility for board-to-board applications.
