HTST-115-01-S-DV-TR Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The HTST-115-01-S-DV-TR is a surface mount rectangular connector header manufactured by Samtec Inc. in the Flex Stack series. This 30-position, 2-row connector with 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch is designed for board-to-cable/wire applications with shrouded 4-wall construction and push-pull fastening. The part maintains active product status and is RoHS3 compliant. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters align with the core specifications, enabling component interchangeability in applications where the original part may be unavailable or require alternative sourcing.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The N2530-6V0C-RB-WF from 3M qualifies as a substitute based on the following alignment of critical parameters:

Matching Core Specifications:

• Connector type: Header with male pin contacts
• Position count and row configuration: 30 positions in 2 rows
• Mating pitch: 0.100" (2.54mm)
• Row spacing: 0.100" (2.54mm)
• Mounting: Surface mount
• Shrouding: Shrouded 4-wall construction
• Fastening: Push-pull mechanism
• Termination: Solder
• Contact finish (mating): Gold at 30.0µin (0.76µm)
• Flammability: UL94 V-0
• RoHS compliance: Active

Allowable Parameter Variations: Substitution is valid despite differences in insulation material (PCT glass-filled vs. LCP), operating temperature upper limit (105°C vs. 125°C), current rating per contact (1.75A vs. 3.4A), and insulation color. These variations remain within acceptable tolerances for equivalent connector functionality in standard board-to-board or cable applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the HTST-115-01-S-DV-TR and N2530-6V0C-RB-WF maintain active product status with UL94 V-0 flammability certification and RoHS compliance, establishing baseline suitability for equivalent applications. The primary selection criterion depends on current requirements: the Samtec part supports 3.4A per contact, while the 3M substitute is rated for 1.75A per contact. Applications requiring higher current density should retain the original HTST-115-01-S-DV-TR specification. The operating temperature upper limit differs by 20°C (125°C vs. 105°C); designs operating near or above 105°C require the Samtec part. Mechanical compatibility is confirmed across both options given identical pitch, row spacing, position count, and shrouded 4-wall construction. The N2530-6V0C-RB-WF is available in Cut Tape packaging and includes pick-and-place features, which may influence procurement and assembly workflow decisions.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the N2530-6V0C-RB-WF directly replace the HTST-115-01-S-DV-TR in all applications?

A: Direct substitution is valid for applications where current per contact does not exceed 1.75A and operating temperature remains below 105°C. Both connectors share identical mating pitch (0.100"), position count (30), row configuration (2 rows), shrouding (4-wall), and fastening mechanism (push-pull). Verify application current and temperature requirements before substitution.

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

A: Contact length at mating differs by 0.007" (0.18mm): HTST-115-01-S-DV-TR measures 0.250" (6.35mm) versus N2530-6V0C-RB-WF at 0.243" (6.17mm). Insulation height varies by 0.040" (1.02mm): 0.350" (8.89mm) versus 0.390" (9.91mm). These dimensional variations remain within standard connector tolerance ranges and do not affect mating compatibility.

Q: Are there compliance or certification differences?

A: Both parts carry UL94 V-0 flammability ratings and RoHS compliance. The HTST-115-01-S-DV-TR is RoHS3 compliant, while the N2530-6V0C-RB-WF is RoHS compliant. Both meet ECCN EAR99 and HTSUS 8536.69.4040 classifications.

Q: What insulation material differences exist, and do they affect performance?

A: The HTST-115-01-S-DV-TR uses Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP), while the N2530-6V0C-RB-WF uses Polycyclohexylenedimethylene Terephthalate (PCT) with glass filling. Both materials provide equivalent electrical insulation and mechanical stability for standard connector applications. Material selection may influence thermal performance and dimensional stability in extreme temperature environments.

Q: How do current ratings affect substitution decisions?

A: The HTST-115-01-S-DV-TR supports 3.4A per contact; the N2530-6V0C-RB-WF supports 1.75A per contact. For applications requiring current density above 1.75A per contact, the original Samtec part is required. For lower current applications, the 3M substitute is acceptable.

Q: What packaging considerations apply to the N2530-6V0C-RB-WF?

A: The N2530-6V0C-RB-WF is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) packaging with pick-and-place features enabled. This packaging format supports automated assembly workflows. The original HTST-115-01-S-DV-TR packaging specification is not detailed in available data.
