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

Part Overview

The HTST-115-01-T-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 push-pull fastening and shrouded 4-wall construction. The part is currently active in production with 953 units in stock. Substitute parts are identified when inventory constraints, lead time requirements, or design flexibility necessitate alternative connector solutions that maintain electrical and mechanical compatibility within the allowed parameter ranges for this connector category.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the HTST-115-01-T-DV-TR is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type & Contact Type: Header with male pins
• Pitch - Mating: 0.100" (2.54mm) standard
• Row Configuration: 2-row arrangement with 0.100" (2.54mm) row spacing
• Mounting Type: Surface mount technology
• Shrouding: Shrouded 4-wall construction
• Fastening Type: Push-pull mechanism
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C ~ 105°C
• Material Flammability: UL94 V-0 rating
• Compliance: RoHS compliant

The identified substitute parts N2526-6V0C-RB-WE and N2530-6V0C-RB-WF from 3M's 2500 series maintain compatibility across these core parameters. Position count variations (26 vs. 30) are acceptable substitutes when circuit design permits reduced contact count. Both substitute parts meet the operating temperature range, flammability rating, and RoHS compliance requirements.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

N2530-6V0C-RB-WF (3M 2500 Series) is the primary substitute for the HTST-115-01-T-DV-TR. This part maintains identical position count (30), row configuration, pitch, and mounting characteristics. Both parts are active products with UL94 V-0 flammability rating and RoHS compliance. The 3M connector features gold-plated mating contacts and pick-and-place capability, with 1492 units currently in stock. The current rating differential (1.75A vs. 3.4A per contact) must be evaluated against circuit requirements.

N2526-6V0C-RB-WE (3M 2500 Series) serves as a secondary substitute when circuit design permits reduced contact count (26 positions vs. 30). This part maintains all core mechanical and electrical compatibility parameters with the exception of position count. It offers higher inventory availability (10200 units in stock) and identical operating temperature range and flammability certification. The current rating of 1.75A per contact applies to this part as well.

Both 3M substitutes are active products with established supply chains and meet all mandatory compliance requirements. Selection between the primary and secondary substitute depends on specific circuit position requirements and current distribution across contacts.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can N2530-6V0C-RB-WF be used as a direct replacement for HTST-115-01-T-DV-TR?

A: Yes, N2530-6V0C-RB-WF is a direct substitute. Both connectors have 30 positions, 2 rows, 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch, surface mount configuration, shrouded 4-wall design, and push-pull fastening. Operating temperature range and flammability ratings are identical. The primary difference is the current rating per contact (1.75A vs. 3.4A), which must be verified against your circuit's current distribution requirements.

Q: What is the difference between the two 3M substitute parts?

A: N2530-6V0C-RB-WF maintains the 30-position configuration of the original part, while N2526-6V0C-RB-WE provides 26 positions. Both share identical pitch, row spacing, mounting type, shrouding, and fastening characteristics. N2526-6V0C-RB-WE is suitable only when your circuit design can accommodate the reduced contact count.

Q: Are there mechanical compatibility concerns with the substitute parts?

A: The 3M 2500 series connectors have slightly different insulation heights (0.390" vs. 0.350" for the Samtec part) and contact mating lengths (0.243" vs. 0.250"). These dimensional differences may affect PCB layout and mating interface clearances. Verify mechanical fit within your specific application before implementation.

Q: Do the substitute parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both N2526-6V0C-RB-WE and N2530-6V0C-RB-WF are UL94 V-0 rated and RoHS compliant, matching the HTST-115-01-T-DV-TR compliance profile. The 3M parts carry RoHS Compliant status with REACH Unaffected designation.

Q: What is the impact of contact finish differences?

A: The HTST-115-01-T-DV-TR uses tin-plated contacts, while both 3M substitutes feature gold-plated mating contacts (30.0µin thickness). Gold plating provides enhanced corrosion resistance and contact reliability. This is a performance improvement rather than a compatibility concern.

Q: How do the current ratings compare?

A: The HTST-115-01-T-DV-TR is rated at 3.4A per contact, while both 3M substitutes are rated at 1.75A per contact. If your application requires the full 3.4A per contact capability, the 3M substitutes may not be suitable. Verify total circuit current requirements and distribution across all 30 contacts before selecting a substitute.
