The TSW-102-15-G-D-LL meets all critical electrical and mechanical parameters for direct substitution. Variations in insulation material and color do not affect functional compatibility in standard applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the HTSW-102-15-G-D-LL and TSW-102-15-G-D-LL are active products from Samtec Inc. with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Both connectors maintain ROHS3 compliance and UL94 V-0 flammability ratings. The TSW-102-15-G-D-LL offers higher inventory availability at 994 pieces compared to 649 pieces for the HTSW-102-15-G-D-LL. Selection between these parts should be based on availability requirements and packaging preferences, as both are functionally equivalent for standard applications within the specified operating temperature range of -55°C to 125°C.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can TSW-102-15-G-D-LL be used as a direct replacement for HTSW-102-15-G-D-LL?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical pitch spacing (0.100"), position count (4), row configuration (2 rows), contact materials, finishes, and operating temperature ranges. The connectors are mechanically and electrically interchangeable.

Q: What is the difference between the insulation materials used in these connectors?

A: The HTSW-102-15-G-D-LL uses Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP) insulation material, while the TSW-102-15-G-D-LL uses Polybutylene Terephthalate (PBT). Both materials meet UL94 V-0 flammability requirements and do not affect functional compatibility in standard board-to-board or cable applications.

Q: Does the insulation color difference affect compatibility?

A: No. The HTSW-102-15-G-D-LL features natural-colored insulation while the TSW-102-15-G-D-LL features black insulation. Color is a visual identifier only and does not impact electrical or mechanical performance.

Q: Are both connectors RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both the HTSW-102-15-G-D-LL and TSW-102-15-G-D-LL are ROHS3 compliant.

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

A: The HTSW-102-15-G-D-LL packaging is not specified in the data. The TSW-102-15-G-D-LL is supplied in bulk packaging. Packaging differences do not affect the connector's functional performance.

Q: Which connector has better availability?

A: The TSW-102-15-G-D-LL has higher inventory availability with 994 pieces in stock compared to 649 pieces for the HTSW-102-15-G-D-LL.
