Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both BTE-060-04-F-D-A-K and BTE-060-04-F-D-A-K-TR maintain Active product status with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection between these parts depends on assembly process requirements and supply chain logistics. The Tray packaging (BTE-060-04-F-D-A-K) suits manual or semi-automated assembly operations. The Tape & Reel packaging (BTE-060-04-F-D-A-K-TR) is optimized for high-volume automated pick-and-place assembly lines. Both variants satisfy ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, ensuring regulatory alignment for industrial and commercial applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can BTE-060-04-F-D-A-K-TR replace BTE-060-04-F-D-A-K in production?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical. The difference is packaging only. BTE-060-04-F-D-A-K-TR uses Tape & Reel format while BTE-060-04-F-D-A-K uses Tray format. Substitution is valid when assembly equipment supports the alternate packaging format.

Q: What determines if a part can substitute for BTE-060-04-F-D-A-K?

A: Substitute parts must match all electrical and mechanical parameters: 120 positions, 0.031" (0.80mm) pitch, 2 rows, Header with Outer Shroud Contacts, Surface Mount type, Gold contact finish at 3.00µin thickness, 0.601" (15.27mm) height above board, 16.1mm mated stacking height, Board Guide features, and ROHS3 compliance with MSL 1 rating.

Q: Are there inventory differences between packaging options?

A: Yes. BTE-060-04-F-D-A-K (Tray) has 844 pieces in stock. BTE-060-04-F-D-A-K-TR (Tape & Reel) has 1223 pieces in stock. Packaging format may affect lead times and availability based on supply chain conditions.

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both BTE-060-04-F-D-A-K and BTE-060-04-F-D-A-K-TR are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and classified under ECCN EAR99 with HTSUS code 8536.69.4040.
