Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the MTSW-110-08-G-D-235 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type & Contact Configuration: Header with male pins, 20 positions arranged in 2 rows
• Pitch Specifications: Mating pitch of 0.100" (2.54mm) and row spacing of 0.100" (2.54mm)
• Mounting & Termination: Through-hole mounting with solder termination
• Contact Interface: Gold-plated mating surface for reliable electrical connection
• Environmental Compliance: UL94 V-0 flammability rating and RoHS compliance

The substitute part 929665-02-10-I from 3M meets these core substitution criteria, maintaining identical pitch, position count, row configuration, mounting method, and contact finish specifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the MTSW-110-08-G-D-235 and 929665-02-10-I are active products with UL94 V-0 flammability ratings and RoHS compliance certifications. The primary differences are:

• Operating Temperature Range: The Samtec part supports -55°C to 125°C, while the 3M part supports -40°C to 105°C. Applications requiring operation below -40°C or above 105°C must use the Samtec part.
• Current Rating: The Samtec part is rated for 3A, while the 3M part is rated for 2.5A. Applications requiring current capacity above 2.5A must use the Samtec part.
• Contact Material: Samtec uses Phosphor Bronze; 3M uses Copper Alloy. Both materials are suitable for the specified applications.
• Insulation Material: Samtec uses Polyester with glass fill; 3M uses PBT and Polyester with glass fill.

Selection should be based on the specific requirements of the application regarding temperature extremes and current demands.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
