Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are FTM-104-03-G-DV and FTM-104-03-F-DV electrically interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical specifications including 2.8A per contact current rating, operating temperature range of -55°C to 125°C, and contact material composition. They are electrically equivalent for all standard applications.

Q: Are these parts mechanically interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both parts have identical mechanical specifications including 8 positions, 2 rows, 1.00mm pitch, 0.065" mating contact length, and 0.038" insulation height. They are mechanically equivalent and will fit the same PCB footprints and mating connectors.

Q: What is the difference between FTM-104-03-G-DV and FTM-104-03-F-DV?

A: The primary difference is in the contact finish post specification. FTM-104-03-F-DV includes tin finish on the post contacts, while FTM-104-03-G-DV does not specify this parameter. Both maintain gold finish on mating contacts.

Q: Are both parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. Both FTM-104-03-G-DV and FTM-104-03-F-DV are ROHS3 compliant and carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity ratings.

Q: Can I use these connectors in high-temperature applications?

A: Yes. Both parts are rated for operating temperatures from -55°C to 125°C, making them suitable for standard industrial and commercial temperature ranges.

Q: What is the solder termination type for these connectors?

A: Both parts use solder termination for permanent board attachment. They are designed for surface mount assembly on PCBs.
