Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the QTE-020-01-F-D-A-SD are identified based on strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Number of Positions: 40
• Pitch: 0.031" (0.80mm)
• Number of Rows: 2
• Connector Type: Header, Outer Shroud Contacts
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount
• Contact Finish: Gold
• Contact Finish Thickness: 3.00µin (0.076µm)
• Height Above Board: 0.168" (4.27mm)
• Mated Stacking Heights: 5mm
• Features: Board Guide, Ground Bus (Plane)
• Series: Q Strip® QTE
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)

The identified substitute maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications, differing only in packaging designation. Both parts are manufactured by Samtec Inc. within the same product series and carry equivalent certifications and compliance ratings.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the QTE-020-01-F-D-A-SD and QTE-020-01-F-D-A maintain Active product status with full ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected designation. The parts are functionally equivalent across all electrical and mechanical parameters. Selection between these parts may be determined by packaging availability and inventory requirements. Both components satisfy identical compliance and certification requirements for applications requiring 40-position surface mount headers with 0.031" pitch and gold contact finish.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What determines if QTE-020-01-F-D-A can substitute for QTE-020-01-F-D-A-SD?

A: Substitution is valid when all critical parameters match: 40 positions, 0.031" pitch, 2-row configuration, surface mount type, gold contact finish at 3.00µin thickness, 0.168" height above board, and identical features including board guide and ground bus. Both parts meet these criteria.

Q: Are there differences in packaging between these parts?

A: The primary distinction is packaging designation. QTE-020-01-F-D-A-SD specifies tray packaging, while QTE-020-01-F-D-A also specifies tray packaging. Both maintain identical component specifications.

Q: Do both parts carry the same compliance certifications?

A: Yes. Both QTE-020-01-F-D-A-SD and QTE-020-01-F-D-A are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and carry MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited). Both are classified under ECCN EAR99 and HTSUS 8536.69.4040.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably in PCB assembly?

A: Yes. Identical mounting type (surface mount), pitch (0.031"), position count (40), and height specifications (0.168" above board) ensure direct functional interchangeability in circuit designs.

Q: What is the significance of the outer shroud contacts feature?

A: Outer shroud contacts provide mechanical guidance and polarization during mating operations, ensuring correct connector alignment and reducing insertion errors in dual-row 40-position header applications.
