Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the HTSW-105-14-F-D and TSW-105-14-F-D are active products manufactured by Samtec Inc. and maintain full ROHS3 compliance. Both connectors satisfy identical electrical and mechanical specifications for standard through-hole header applications.

The TSW-105-14-F-D offers higher inventory availability (2433 units versus 710 units), which may be advantageous for supply chain planning or extended production runs. The insulation material difference (LCP versus PBT) and color variation do not affect functional compatibility in applications where the connector operates within the specified -55°C to 125°C temperature range and UL94 V-0 flammability requirements are met.

Selection between these parts should be based on inventory requirements, lead time constraints, and any application-specific material preferences documented in design specifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are the HTSW-105-14-F-D and TSW-105-14-F-D mechanically interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical mating pitch (0.100"), row spacing (0.100"), contact dimensions, and through-hole mounting specifications. They are mechanically interchangeable in standard board-to-board and cable applications.

Q: What is the significance of the insulation material difference between LCP and PBT?

A: Both Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP) and Polybutylene Terephthalate (PBT) meet the UL94 V-0 flammability rating and operate across the identical temperature range (-55°C to 125°C). Material selection does not affect electrical performance or mechanical compatibility for standard applications.

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both the HTSW-105-14-F-D and TSW-105-14-F-D are ROHS3 compliant and carry the same UL94 V-0 flammability rating. Both are classified as EAR99 for export control purposes.

Q: Can I use TSW-105-14-F-D as a direct replacement for HTSW-105-14-F-D in existing designs?

A: Yes. The TSW-105-14-F-D meets all critical electrical and mechanical parameters specified for the HTSW-105-14-F-D. No design modifications are required for direct substitution.

Q: What is the difference in contact finish specifications?

A: Both parts feature gold-plated mating contacts (3.00µin thickness) and tin-plated posts. Contact finish specifications are identical and provide equivalent electrical performance and corrosion resistance.

Q: Are there any temperature or voltage limitations I should consider?

A: Both connectors operate across -55°C to 125°C. Voltage and current ratings are determined by wire gauge and application-specific circuit design, not by the connector series.
