Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both QFS-026-01-SL-D-RA-PC4-K and QFS-026-01-SL-D-RA-PC4-K-TR are Active products with ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating. Selection between these parts should be based on manufacturing and assembly requirements. The Tray packaging format (QFS-026-01-SL-D-RA-PC4-K) is suitable for manual handling and lower-volume assembly operations. The Tape & Reel format (QFS-026-01-SL-D-RA-PC4-K-TR) is optimized for automated pick-and-place assembly processes and high-volume production environments. Both parts are electrically and mechanically interchangeable and meet identical compliance standards.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are QFS-026-01-SL-D-RA-PC4-K and QFS-026-01-SL-D-RA-PC4-K-TR electrically identical?

A: Yes. Both parts are identical in all electrical specifications, including connector type, position count, pitch, contact finish, and gold plating thickness. They differ only in packaging format.

Q: What is the difference between Tray and Tape & Reel packaging?

A: Tray packaging is used for manual component handling and lower-volume assembly. Tape & Reel packaging is designed for automated pick-and-place equipment and high-volume manufacturing. The component itself is identical in both formats.

Q: Can I substitute QFS-026-01-SL-D-RA-PC4-K-TR for QFS-026-01-SL-D-RA-PC4-K in my design?

A: Yes, provided your assembly process supports Tape & Reel format. All electrical and mechanical specifications are identical, and both parts carry the same compliance certifications.

Q: Are both parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. Both QFS-026-01-SL-D-RA-PC4-K and QFS-026-01-SL-D-RA-PC4-K-TR are ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating.

Q: What determines substitution eligibility for this connector series?

A: Substitution is valid when connector type, position count, pitch, mounting configuration, contact finish specifications, and compliance certifications remain identical. Packaging format alone does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility.
