Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 75160-126-08LF is the direct equivalent from Amphenol ICC (FCI), maintaining identical mechanical and electrical specifications while offering active product status and RoHS compliance. This part is the primary substitute for obsolete stock replacement.

The Samtec TSW-108-17-G-S and TSW-108-17-T-S connectors provide cross-manufacturer alternatives with equivalent core functionality. Both maintain the 8-position, 2.54mm pitch configuration and through-hole solder termination. The TSW-108-17-G-S features gold contact finish, while the TSW-108-17-T-S uses tin finish. Both Samtec parts carry active product status and ROHS3 compliance, supporting modern supply chain requirements.

Contact length variations between the Amphenol and Samtec series (0.613" versus 0.620" mating length) are within acceptable tolerance ranges for standard board-to-board applications. Physical board layout and mating depth requirements should be evaluated during design integration.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 75160-126-08LF directly replace the obsolete 75160-126-08?

A: Yes. The 75160-126-08LF maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications, including 8-position configuration, 2.54mm pitch, square male pins, through-hole solder termination, and UL94 V-0 rating. The primary difference is active product status and RoHS compliance.

Q: What are the key differences between Amphenol ICC and Samtec substitute options?

A: All three substitute parts (75160-126-08LF, TSW-108-17-G-S, TSW-108-17-T-S) share core specifications: 8 positions, 2.54mm pitch, male pins, through-hole solder termination, and push-pull fastening. Differences include manufacturer, contact finish (gold versus tin), insulation material (thermoplastic versus PBT), and operating temperature ranges. Contact length varies slightly (0.613" to 0.620" mating length).

Q: Are there compatibility concerns with the contact length differences?

A: The mating contact length variation between Amphenol (0.613") and Samtec (0.620") parts is approximately 0.007" (0.18mm). This difference is within standard tolerance ranges for board-to-board connector applications. Verify mating depth requirements in your specific application design.

Q: Which substitute part should be selected for new designs?

A: For new designs, select based on compliance requirements and supply chain strategy. The 75160-126-08LF provides continuity with the original Amphenol ICC series. The Samtec TSW-108-17-G-S (gold finish) or TSW-108-17-T-S (tin finish) offer alternative sourcing with active product status and ROHS3 compliance.

Q: What is the difference between TSW-108-17-G-S and TSW-108-17-T-S?

A: Both parts are functionally equivalent with identical 8-position, 2.54mm pitch configuration. The primary difference is contact finish: TSW-108-17-G-S uses gold finish with 10.0µin thickness, while TSW-108-17-T-S uses tin finish. Operating temperature range differs slightly (-55°C to 125°C for gold versus -55°C to 105°C for tin).

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS compliant?

A: The 75160-126-08LF is RoHS Compliant. Both Samtec parts (TSW-108-17-G-S and TSW-108-17-T-S) are ROHS3 Compliant. The original 75160-126-08 is RoHS non-compliant.
