Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the HTSW-110-14-F-D is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Connector Type: Header
• Contact Type: Male Pin
• Number of Positions: 20
• Number of Rows: 2
• Pitch - Mating: 0.100" (2.54mm)
• Row Spacing - Mating: 0.100" (2.54mm)
• Mounting Type: Through Hole
• Termination: Solder
• Fastening Type: Push-Pull
• Contact Shape: Square
• Contact Finish - Mating: Gold
• Contact Finish - Post: Tin
• Contact Material: Phosphor Bronze
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C to 125°C
• Material Flammability Rating: UL94 V-0
• Product Status: Active
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant

Allowable Variations:

• Insulation Material: Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP) or Polybutylene Terephthalate (PBT)
• Insulation Color: Natural or Black
• Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL): Not Applicable or 1 (Unlimited)

The TSW-110-14-F-D qualifies as a substitute part based on these criteria.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the HTSW-110-14-F-D and TSW-110-14-F-D are active products from Samtec Inc. with full ROHS3 compliance and UL94 V-0 flammability certification. The parts are electrically and mechanically equivalent across all critical connector parameters including contact geometry, pitch spacing, termination method, and operating temperature range.

The primary differences are material composition of the insulation housing and moisture sensitivity classification. The HTSW series uses Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP) insulation with natural color and is classified as Not Applicable for MSL. The TSW series uses Polybutylene Terephthalate (PBT) insulation with black color and carries an MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited). Both materials meet UL94 V-0 flammability requirements.

Selection between these parts should be based on specific application requirements regarding insulation material properties, color coding conventions, and moisture handling protocols. Both parts maintain identical electrical performance and mechanical compatibility.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are the HTSW-110-14-F-D and TSW-110-14-F-D mechanically interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical pitch spacing (0.100"), contact geometry, mounting configuration, and overall dimensions. They are mechanically interchangeable in board-to-board and cable applications.

Q: What is the difference between LCP and PBT insulation materials?

A: Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP) and Polybutylene Terephthalate (PBT) are both thermoplastic materials meeting UL94 V-0 flammability standards. The choice between them depends on application-specific requirements for thermal stability, chemical resistance, and dimensional tolerance. Both materials are suitable for the -55°C to 125°C operating temperature range specified for these connectors.

Q: Does the MSL rating difference affect substitution eligibility?

A: The Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) classification reflects handling and storage requirements. The HTSW-110-14-F-D is classified as Not Applicable, while the TSW-110-14-F-D carries an MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited). This difference does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility but may influence procurement, storage, and handling procedures based on your organization's moisture management protocols.

Q: Can I use these connectors in high-temperature applications?

A: Both connectors are rated for operating temperatures from -55°C to 125°C. Applications requiring operation outside this range are not suitable for either part.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both the HTSW-110-14-F-D and TSW-110-14-F-D are ROHS3 compliant, meeting current regulatory requirements for restricted substances in electrical and electronic equipment.

Q: What is the contact finish specification?

A: Both parts feature gold-plated mating contacts (3.00µin thickness) and tin-plated posts. This finish combination provides corrosion resistance and reliable solder joint formation.
