Amphenol ICC 69190-508 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Amphenol ICC 69190-508 is a BERGSTIK® II series rectangular connector header designed for through-hole board-to-board applications. This 8-position, 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch connector features male pins with press-fit and solder termination options. The part is currently active in production with 1,058 units in stock. Substitute parts are necessary when specific contact length requirements, compliance certifications, or packaging formats differ from the original specification, or when supply constraints require alternative sourcing from qualified manufacturers.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Substitute (Closest Match): TSW-108-07-F-S and HTSW-108-07-G-S are the closest functional equivalents to the 69190-508. Both maintain identical mating contact length (0.230"), insulation height (0.100"), and post contact length within acceptable tolerance (0.100" vs. 0.120"). Both are ROHS3 compliant and rated for -55°C to 125°C operating temperature, exceeding the original part's environmental range.

Alternative Substitutes by Contact Post Length:

TSW-108-23-F-S: Post length 0.115" (2.92mm) — closest to original 0.120" specification. Suitable for applications requiring minimal PCB penetration depth.

929450-01-08-I (3M): Post length 0.130" (3.30mm) — slightly longer than original. Provides extended mechanical engagement. Operating temperature limited to -40°C to 105°C.

TSW-108-08-F-S: Post length 0.200" (5.08mm) — for applications requiring deeper PCB penetration.

TSW-108-09-G-S: Post length 0.400" (10.16mm) — extended post for thick PCB assemblies.

TSW-108-12-G-S: Post length 0.700" (17.78mm) — maximum post length for stacked or multi-layer board configurations.

Compliance Considerations: All Samtec substitutes (TSW and HTSW series) are ROHS3 compliant, whereas the original 69190-508 is RoHS non-compliant. Selection of ROHS3-compliant alternatives is required for applications subject to RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU or equivalent regional regulations.

Packaging Format: Samtec parts are available in bag, bulk, or tube packaging. Bulk packaging (TSW-108-09-G-S, TSW-108-12-G-S) matches the original part's packaging format. Bag packaging (HTSW series, TSW-108-07-F-S) is suitable for lower-volume applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can TSW-108-07-F-S directly replace the 69190-508 in existing PCB designs? A: Yes, TSW-108-07-F-S is functionally equivalent for board-to-board through-hole applications. Both parts share identical mating contact length (0.230"), insulation height (0.100"), and 8-position 2.54mm pitch configuration. The post contact length differs by 0.020" (0.51mm), which is acceptable for most standard PCB thicknesses (0.062" to 0.125"). Verify PCB clearance and solder pad design before implementation.

Q: What is the difference between TSW and HTSW series headers? A: Both series are 8-position, 2.54mm pitch through-hole headers with identical mating contact geometry. HTSW series uses Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP) insulation material and supports board-to-board or cable applications. TSW series uses Polybutylene Terephthalate (PBT) insulation and is optimized for board-to-board configurations. HTSW parts are available with natural-colored insulation, while TSW parts feature black insulation. Both are ROHS3 compliant and rated for -55°C to 125°C.

Q: Why do substitute parts have different contact post lengths? A: Contact post length determines PCB penetration depth and is selected based on board thickness and solder joint requirements. Standard PCB thickness is 0.062" (1.57mm). The original 69190-508 specifies 0.120" (3.05mm) post length for adequate solder fillet formation and mechanical strength. Substitute parts with shorter posts (0.100") are suitable for standard PCB assemblies, while longer posts (0.200" to 0.700") accommodate thicker or stacked PCB configurations.

Q: Is the 929450-01-08-I (3M) suitable for high-temperature applications? A: The 929450-01-08-I is rated for -40°C to 105°C operating temperature, which is narrower than Samtec alternatives (-55°C to 125°C). Selection of this part is appropriate only for applications within the -40°C to 105°C range. For extended temperature requirements, Samtec TSW or HTSW series are recommended.

Q: What is the significance of contact finish thickness differences? A: Contact finish thickness affects durability and mating cycle life. The original 69190-508 specifies 15.0µin (0.38µm) gold finish on mating contacts. Samtec TSW-108-07-F-S provides 3.00µin (0.076µm), while TSW-108-09-G-S and TSW-108-12-G-S provide 10.0µin (0.25µm). Thicker gold finishes provide enhanced corrosion resistance and extended contact life in high-cycle mating applications. Thinner finishes are acceptable for fixed or low-cycle applications.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS compliant? A: All Samtec substitutes (TSW and HTSW series) are ROHS3 compliant. The 3M 929450-01-08-I is REACH Unaffected. The original 69190-508 is RoHS non-compliant. Selection of RoHS-compliant alternatives is mandatory for applications subject to RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU or equivalent regulations.

Q: What packaging formats are available for substitute parts? A: Samtec TSW and HTSW series are available in bag, bulk, or tube packaging. Bag packaging is standard for most variants and suitable for component-level procurement. Bulk packaging is available for high-volume production runs. Tube packaging (TS-108-G-AA) is available for automated assembly processes. The original 69190-508 is supplied in bulk packaging.
