Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the BTFW30P-3SBTADE1LF is based on strict equivalence of the following electrical and mechanical parameters:

• Connector type and contact configuration (Plug, Center Strip Contacts)
• Position count (30 positions)
• Contact pitch (0.039" / 1.00mm)
• Row configuration (2 rows)
• Mounting technology (Surface Mount)
• Contact finish material (Gold)
• Physical height above board (0.295" / 7.50mm)
• Functional features (Board Guide, Solder Retention)
• Moisture sensitivity classification (MSL 1)

The identified substitute maintains all critical electrical and mechanical parameters within the BTFW series, ensuring direct functional compatibility in applications designed for the original part.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The BTFW30P-3SBTADE4LF serves as the direct functional equivalent to the obsolete BTFW30P-3SBTADE1LF. Both parts share identical electrical and mechanical specifications within the BTFW series. The primary distinction is product status: BTFW30P-3SBTADE4LF is currently active in production, whereas BTFW30P-3SBTADE1LF is obsolete.

The substitute part is supplied in Tape & Reel packaging and carries RoHS compliance certification, meeting current regulatory requirements. Selection of BTFW30P-3SBTADE4LF ensures continued component availability and compliance with modern manufacturing standards while maintaining full functional compatibility with existing designs.
