Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The BSE-040-01-F-D-A connector has one equivalent substitute based on identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The substitution is determined by the following critical parameters that remain constant across all variants:

  • Number of Positions: 80
  • Pitch: 0.031" (0.80mm)
  • Number of Rows: 2
  • Connector Type: Receptacle, Center Strip Contacts
  • Mounting Type: Surface Mount
  • Contact Finish: Gold with Flash thickness
  • Height Above Board: 0.128" (3.25mm)
  • Mated Stacking Heights: 5mm, 8mm
  • Features: Board Guide
  • Series: BSE
  • Base Product Number: BSE-040

The only difference between the main part and its substitute is the packaging configuration. The main part is supplied in Tray packaging, while the substitute is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging. Both configurations contain identical connector components with no functional or electrical differences.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the BSE-040-01-F-D-A and BSE-040-01-F-D-A-TR are Active status products from Samtec Inc. with identical ROHS3 and REACH compliance certifications. Selection between these parts should be based on assembly process requirements and procurement logistics.

The Tray packaging (BSE-040-01-F-D-A) is suitable for manual assembly operations and lower-volume applications. The Tape & Reel packaging (BSE-040-01-F-D-A-TR) is optimized for automated pick-and-place assembly processes and high-volume production runs, offering improved handling efficiency and reduced labor costs in manufacturing environments.

Both parts maintain identical electrical performance, mechanical compatibility, and regulatory compliance. The choice between packaging options does not affect connector functionality, mating characteristics, or board-level integration.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are BSE-040-01-F-D-A and BSE-040-01-F-D-A-TR electrically identical?

A: Yes. Both parts are identical in all electrical and mechanical specifications. The only difference is packaging format. They perform identically in circuit applications.

Q: Can I use BSE-040-01-F-D-A-TR in place of BSE-040-01-F-D-A?

A: Yes. The connector components are functionally equivalent. Substitution is valid when your assembly process can accommodate Tape & Reel packaging.

Q: What is the primary advantage of Tape & Reel packaging?

A: Tape & Reel packaging enables automated assembly using pick-and-place equipment, reducing manual handling and improving production efficiency in high-volume manufacturing.

Q: Are there any compatibility issues when switching between Tray and Tape & Reel packaging?

A: No compatibility issues exist at the component level. Both packaging formats contain identical connectors. Differences are limited to procurement, storage, and assembly process considerations.

Q: Do both packaging options meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both BSE-040-01-F-D-A and BSE-040-01-F-D-A-TR are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, with identical regulatory certifications.

Q: What is the Moisture Sensitivity Level for these connectors?

A: Both parts have MSL 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions for storage or handling.
