QSH-060-01-C-D-A-TR Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The QSH-060-01-C-D-A-TR is a 120-position rectangular connector receptacle manufactured by Samtec Inc. as part of the Q Strip® QSH series. This surface mount connector features center strip contacts with gold plating and is designed for high-density interconnect applications. The part is currently in active production status with full RoHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating (MSL 1). Substitute parts are identified when packaging or inventory requirements necessitate alternative sourcing while maintaining identical electrical and mechanical specifications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the QSH-060-01-C-D-A-TR is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Connector type and position count (120-position receptacle, center strip contacts)
• Electrical specifications (pitch 0.020", 2 rows, gold contact finish at 50.0µin thickness)
• Mechanical compatibility (surface mount, 0.128" height above board, identical stacking heights)
• Compliance and environmental ratings (ROHS3, MSL 1, EAR99 classification)
• Base product number (QSH-060)

The only allowable variation is packaging format. The primary difference between the main part and its substitute is the packaging method: Tape & Reel (TR) versus Tray. This distinction affects handling, storage, and automated assembly processes but does not alter electrical or mechanical performance.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the QSH-060-01-C-D-A-TR and QSH-060-01-C-D-A are active production parts with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection between these parts should be based on packaging requirements and assembly process compatibility:

• QSH-060-01-C-D-A-TR (Tape & Reel): Suitable for high-volume automated pick-and-place assembly operations where tape-fed component handling is standard.
• QSH-060-01-C-D-A (Tray): Suitable for manual assembly, lower-volume production, or processes where tray-based component management is preferred.

Both parts maintain full ROHS3 compliance and carry identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8536.69.4040) classifications. Inventory availability should be evaluated against production scheduling requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can QSH-060-01-C-D-A be used as a direct replacement for QSH-060-01-C-D-A-TR?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical. The only difference is packaging format (Tray versus Tape & Reel). Substitution is valid provided the receiving assembly process can accommodate tray-based component handling.

Q: Does packaging format affect connector performance or reliability?

A: No. Packaging format is a logistics and assembly process variable only. Electrical performance, mechanical fit, contact integrity, and environmental ratings are identical between both parts.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between the two parts?

A: No. Both parts carry identical RoHS3 compliance, MSL 1 rating, ECCN classification, and HTSUS codes. Regulatory and environmental specifications are equivalent.

Q: What is the pitch specification for this connector?

A: The pitch is 0.020" (0.50mm), defining the center-to-center spacing between adjacent contact positions in the 120-position array.

Q: What mated stacking heights are supported?

A: This connector supports mated stacking heights of 5mm, 8mm, 11mm, 14mm, 16mm, 19mm, and 25mm, allowing flexibility in interconnect stack design.

Q: Is this connector suitable for automated assembly?

A: Yes. Both variants are surface mount components designed for automated pick-and-place assembly. The Tape & Reel variant (QSH-060-01-C-D-A-TR) is optimized for high-speed automated feeders, while the Tray variant (QSH-060-01-C-D-A) is compatible with manual or semi-automated processes.
