Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the FTMH-110-02-L-DV is determined by strict alignment with the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type & Contact Configuration: Header with male pins
• Position Count & Row Configuration: 20 positions in 2 rows
• Pitch Specification: 0.039" (1.00mm) mating pitch and row spacing
• Mounting & Termination: Surface mount with solder termination
• Fastening Mechanism: Push-pull fastening type
• Insulation Material: Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP)
• Contact Finish: Gold-plated mating surface
• Compliance: UL94 V-0 flammability rating and ROHS3 compliance

The substitute part BC050-20A-K0-0200-0160-0480-LB meets these core electrical and mechanical parameters, enabling direct functional substitution in applications where the specified tolerances and performance characteristics are compatible.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the FTMH-110-02-L-DV and BC050-20A-K0-0200-0160-0480-LB are active products with ROHS3 compliance and UL94 V-0 flammability certification. Selection between these parts should be based on application-specific requirements:

The FTMH-110-02-L-DV supports higher current capacity (2.8A per contact) and extended operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C), making it suitable for demanding thermal and power delivery applications.

The BC050-20A-K0-0200-0160-0480-LB operates within a narrower current specification (1A per contact) and temperature range (-40°C to 105°C), appropriate for standard commercial and industrial applications with moderate power requirements.

Both parts maintain identical pitch, position count, row configuration, and fundamental electrical characteristics. Mechanical differences in contact length and insulation height must be evaluated against specific PCB layout and mating interface requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can BC050-20A-K0-0200-0160-0480-LB directly replace FTMH-110-02-L-DV in all applications?

A: Direct substitution is possible for applications operating within the BC050 specifications: maximum 1A per contact current, -40°C to 105°C temperature range, and compatible PCB footprint accounting for the 0.079" (2.00mm) contact length and 0.039" (1.00mm) insulation height.

Q: What are the key mechanical differences between these parts?

A: Contact length differs by 0.004" (0.10mm), and insulation height differs by 0.020" (0.50mm). These variations may affect mating interface clearance and PCB layout spacing. Verify compatibility with mating connector specifications and board design constraints.

Q: Are both parts suitable for high-reliability applications?

A: Both parts meet UL94 V-0 flammability requirements and ROHS3 compliance. Selection for high-reliability applications must consider the FTMH-110-02-L-DV's superior current rating and extended temperature range as primary differentiators.

Q: What packaging formats are available?

A: FTMH-110-02-L-DV is supplied in Tube packaging. BC050-20A-K0-0200-0160-0480-LB is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format. Packaging selection may impact procurement, handling, and assembly processes.

Q: How do the contact materials differ?

A: FTMH-110-02-L-DV uses Phosphor Bronze contacts. BC050-20A-K0-0200-0160-0480-LB uses Copper Alloy contacts. Both are gold-plated at the mating surface, ensuring compatible electrical performance for standard signal and power applications.
