Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the TE Connectivity 5-826648-0 is determined by the following core parameters:

Primary Matching Criteria:

50 positions at 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch
Male pin contact type
Through-hole mounting
Solder termination
Push-pull fastening
Square contact shape
Unshrouded design
UL94 V-0 flammability rating
ROHS3 compliance

Secondary Compatibility Factors:

Operating temperature range (minimum -55°C, maximum 105°C or higher)
Contact material (brass or phosphor bronze acceptable)
Insulation material (PBT or LCP acceptable)
Contact finish combinations (gold or tin on mating surface; gold or tin on post)

Substitute parts from Samtec Inc. (HTSW and TSW series) meet these core parameters with variations in contact finish specifications, insulation material composition, and post termination style (standard solder or kinked pin solder). These variations do not affect functional interchangeability in standard through-hole PCB applications.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All listed substitute parts maintain Active product status and ROHS3 compliance, ensuring regulatory alignment with the original TE Connectivity 5-826648-0. Selection among substitute options depends on specific application requirements:

For Gold-Plated Mating Surface Applications: HTSW-150-14-G-S, TSW-150-14-G-S, TSW-150-14-G-S-LL, TSW-150-14-L-S, and TSW-150-14-L-S-LL provide gold contact finish on the mating surface with extended operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C).

For Tin-Plated Mating Surface Applications: HTSW-150-14-T-S, TSW-150-14-F-S, TSW-150-14-T-S, and TSW-150-14-T-S-004 provide tin contact finish on the mating surface. TSW-150-14-T-S-004 is configured with 49 loaded positions instead of 50.

For Kinked Pin Termination: TSW-150-14-G-S-LL, TSW-150-14-L-S-LL, and TSW-150-14-S-S-LL feature kinked pin solder termination for enhanced mechanical retention during PCB assembly.

For Liquid Crystal Polymer Insulation: HTSW-150-14-G-S and HTSW-150-14-T-S utilize LCP insulation material with superior thermal and chemical resistance compared to PBT alternatives.

All substitute parts are certified to UL94 V-0 flammability standards and maintain push-pull fastening compatibility with the original design.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can TSW series connectors directly replace the TE Connectivity 5-826648-0?

A: Yes. TSW series connectors from Samtec meet all core substitution parameters: 50 positions at 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch, male pin contacts, through-hole mounting, solder termination, push-pull fastening, square contact shape, unshrouded design, and UL94 V-0 compliance. Variations in contact finish, insulation material, and post termination style do not affect functional interchangeability in standard through-hole PCB applications.

Q: What is the difference between standard solder termination and kinked pin solder termination?

A: Standard solder termination features straight pins for insertion into PCB holes. Kinked pin solder termination includes a bend in the pin post, providing enhanced mechanical retention and stress relief during soldering and thermal cycling. Both termination styles are compatible with standard through-hole PCB assembly processes.

Q: Are HTSW series connectors compatible with TSW series connectors?

A: HTSW and TSW series connectors share identical core electrical and mechanical parameters (50 positions, 0.100" pitch, male pins, through-hole mounting, solder termination). Primary differences include insulation material (LCP for HTSW versus PBT for most TSW variants) and contact finish specifications. Both series are functionally interchangeable in standard applications.

Q: What is the significance of the "-LL" suffix in part numbers?

A: The "-LL" suffix indicates kinked pin solder termination with low-profile design. This configuration provides improved mechanical retention during PCB assembly and enhanced stress relief for thermal cycling applications.

Q: How do contact finish specifications affect connector selection?

A: Contact finish (gold or tin on mating surface; gold or tin on post) determines corrosion resistance and electrical performance characteristics. Gold-plated contacts provide superior corrosion resistance and lower contact resistance. Tin-plated contacts offer cost efficiency for standard applications. Selection depends on environmental exposure and electrical performance requirements.

Q: Is the operating temperature range difference between the main part and substitutes significant?

A: The TE Connectivity 5-826648-0 operates from -65°C to 105°C. Most Samtec substitutes operate from -55°C to 105°C or -55°C to 125°C. For applications requiring operation below -55°C, the original TE part is required. For applications within -55°C to 105°C range, substitutes are fully compatible.

Q: What is the difference between PBT and LCP insulation materials?

A: PBT (Polybutylene Terephthalate) is a standard engineering plastic offering good mechanical properties and cost efficiency. LCP (Liquid Crystal Polymer) provides superior thermal stability, lower moisture absorption, and enhanced dimensional stability at elevated temperatures. Both materials meet UL94 V-0 flammability requirements.

Q: Can TSW-150-14-T-S-004 be used as a direct replacement for the 5-826648-0?

A: TSW-150-14-T-S-004 is configured with 49 loaded positions instead of 50. This part is suitable only for applications requiring 49 positions. For applications requiring all 50 positions, alternative substitutes with full 50-position loading must be selected.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. All listed substitute parts are certified ROHS3 compliant, matching the regulatory compliance status of the TE Connectivity 5-826648-0.
