Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the FTMH-109-02-F-DV is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Connector type (Header) and contact type (Male Pin)
• Position count (18) and row configuration (2 rows)
• Mating pitch (1.00mm) and row spacing (1.00mm)
• Mounting technology (Surface Mount)
• Board-to-board application style
• Solder termination and push-pull fastening
• Insulation material (LCP) and flammability rating (UL94 V-0)
• RoHS3 compliance and MSL rating (1)

The substitute part BC050-18A-K0-0200-0160-0480-LB meets these core electrical and mechanical requirements, enabling functional equivalence in applications requiring these specifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations
