HTST-117-01-S-DV-TR Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The HTST-117-01-S-DV-TR is a surface mount rectangular connector header manufactured by Samtec Inc. in the Flex Stack series. This 34-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 is currently active in production with 648 units in stock. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters are required due to inventory constraints, design flexibility, or supply chain considerations.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The N2534-6V0C-RB-WF from 3M qualifies as a substitute based on the following critical parameters that determine functional interchangeability:

Identical connector type (Header) and contact type (Male Pin)
Matching position count (34 positions) and row configuration (2 rows)
Identical mating pitch (0.100" / 2.54mm) and row spacing (0.100" / 2.54mm)
Equivalent mounting type (Surface Mount) and shrouding (Shrouded - 4 Wall)
Matching fastening mechanism (Push-Pull) and termination method (Solder)
Identical contact finish for mating surfaces (Gold) and equivalent finish thickness (30.0µin / 0.76µm)
Equivalent material flammability rating (UL94 V-0)
Compliant RoHS status (RoHS Compliant)

These parameters establish mechanical and electrical compatibility for direct substitution in board-to-board or cable applications.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the HTST-117-01-S-DV-TR and N2534-6V0C-RB-WF are active production parts with equivalent mechanical compatibility and identical mating pitch, position count, and shrouding specifications. Both parts carry UL94 V-0 flammability ratings and comply with RoHS standards.

The primary differences are:

Operating temperature range: HTST-117-01-S-DV-TR supports -55°C to 125°C, while N2534-6V0C-RB-WF supports -55°C to 105°C. Applications requiring operation above 105°C require the Samtec part.
Current rating: HTST-117-01-S-DV-TR is rated at 3.4A per contact versus 1.75A for the 3M part. High-current applications require the Samtec part.
Insulation material: HTST-117-01-S-DV-TR uses Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP); N2534-6V0C-RB-WF uses glass-filled PCT. Both materials meet UL94 V-0 requirements.
Contact material: HTST-117-01-S-DV-TR uses Phosphor Bronze; N2534-6V0C-RB-WF uses Copper Alloy.

Selection should be based on application requirements for temperature range and current capacity.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the N2534-6V0C-RB-WF directly replace the HTST-117-01-S-DV-TR in all applications?

A: Direct replacement is possible for applications operating within -55°C to 105°C and requiring maximum 1.75A per contact. Applications exceeding these limits require the HTST-117-01-S-DV-TR.

Q: What is the significance of the 0.007" (0.18mm) difference in contact length - mating?

A: The contact length difference (HTST-117-01-S-DV-TR: 0.250" vs. N2534-6V0C-RB-WF: 0.243") is within typical manufacturing tolerances for 0.100" pitch connectors and does not affect mating compatibility.

Q: Does the insulation height difference affect compatibility?

A: The insulation height difference (HTST-117-01-S-DV-TR: 0.350" vs. N2534-6V0C-RB-WF: 0.390") does not affect mating compatibility. Both parts maintain identical pitch and row spacing. PCB layout and clearance requirements should be verified for the specific application.

Q: Are both parts suitable for automated assembly?

A: The HTST-117-01-S-DV-TR is specified for standard surface mount assembly. The N2534-6V0C-RB-WF includes "Pick and Place" features, indicating optimization for automated placement equipment.

Q: What is the difference in packaging between these parts?

A: The HTST-117-01-S-DV-TR packaging is not specified in the data. The N2534-6V0C-RB-WF is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) packaging.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The HTST-117-01-S-DV-TR is ROHS3 Compliant. The N2534-6V0C-RB-WF is RoHS Compliant. Both meet RoHS requirements.
