BTH-060-01-L-D-A-TR Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The BTH-060-01-L-D-A-TR is a 120 Position Connector Header manufactured by Samtec Inc., designed for surface mount applications with outer shroud contacts and gold plating. This rectangular connector operates with a 0.020" (0.50mm) pitch across 2 rows and features a board guide for alignment during assembly. The part maintains Active product status and is ROHS3 compliant with unlimited moisture sensitivity rating (MSL 1).

Substitute parts are identified when packaging or tape configuration differs while maintaining identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Alternative packaging options enable procurement flexibility for different manufacturing workflows and inventory management strategies.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the BTH-060-01-L-D-A-TR are identified based on equivalence in the following critical parameters:

• Number of Positions: 120
• Pitch: 0.020" (0.50mm)
• Number of Rows: 2
• Connector Type: Header, Outer Shroud Contacts
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount
• Contact Finish: Gold
• Contact Finish Thickness: 10.0µin (0.25µm)
• Height Above Board: 0.168" (4.27mm)
• Mated Stacking Heights: 5mm
• Features: Board Guide
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant
• MSL Rating: 1 (Unlimited)

Substitution is permitted when packaging configuration differs (Cut Tape & Digi-Reel, Tray, or Tape & Reel) while all electrical and mechanical parameters remain identical. The base product number BTH-060 remains constant across all substitute variants.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three part numbers—BTH-060-01-L-D-A-TR, BTH-060-01-L-D-A, and BTH-060-01-L-D-A-K-TR—are functionally equivalent for circuit design and PCB layout purposes. Selection between these variants is determined by manufacturing and procurement requirements rather than electrical performance.

BTH-060-01-L-D-A-TR (Cut Tape & Digi-Reel) is suitable for applications requiring flexible packaging options and smaller order quantities. BTH-060-01-L-D-A (Tray) accommodates bulk handling and automated assembly processes. BTH-060-01-L-D-A-K-TR (Tape & Reel) is optimized for high-volume production with pick-and-place equipment.

All variants maintain ROHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating, ensuring compatibility with standard surface mount assembly processes and environmental requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can BTH-060-01-L-D-A be used as a direct replacement for BTH-060-01-L-D-A-TR?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical. The difference is packaging only—Tray versus Cut Tape & Digi-Reel. Selection depends on assembly equipment and inventory management requirements.

Q: What is the difference between BTH-060-01-L-D-A-K-TR and BTH-060-01-L-D-A-TR?

A: Both use Tape & Reel packaging. The K designation in BTH-060-01-L-D-A-K-TR indicates a specific tape configuration variant. All electrical and mechanical specifications remain identical.

Q: Are these parts suitable for automated pick-and-place assembly?

A: BTH-060-01-L-D-A-K-TR (Tape & Reel) is optimized for automated pick-and-place equipment. BTH-060-01-L-D-A (Tray) requires tray feeders. BTH-060-01-L-D-A-TR (Cut Tape & Digi-Reel) accommodates both manual and semi-automated processes.

Q: Do all three variants meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes. All variants are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) rating. Compliance certifications are identical across all packaging options.

Q: What determines the choice between these three packaging options?

A: Manufacturing volume, assembly equipment capability, and inventory management strategy. High-volume production typically uses Tape & Reel. Lower volumes or mixed-component assembly may use Tray or Cut Tape & Digi-Reel.
