QTH-030-01-C-D-A-TR Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The QTH-030-01-C-D-A-TR is a 60-position rectangular connector header manufactured by Samtec Inc. as part of the Q Strip® QTH series. This surface mount connector features outer shroud contacts with gold plating and is designed for applications requiring high-density interconnection with board-level guidance. The part is currently active in production status with ROHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating (MSL 1). Substitute parts are identified based on identical electrical and mechanical specifications with variations in packaging configuration only.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the QTH-030-01-C-D-A-TR is determined by strict equivalence across all electrical and mechanical parameters. The primary differentiator between the main part and identified substitutes is packaging configuration. Both the tape & reel (TR) and tray packaging options contain identical connector specifications, allowing interchangeability at the component level. Substitution is valid when the following parameters remain constant:

• 60-position configuration with 2-row layout
• 0.020" (0.50mm) pitch spacing
• Surface mount outer shroud header design
• Gold contact finish at 50.0µin thickness
• Board guide and ground bus features
• 0.160" (4.06mm) height above board
• ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating

Packaging format (tape & reel versus tray) does not affect electrical or mechanical performance and represents the only allowable variation for substitute selection.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both QTH-030-01-C-D-A-TR and QTH-030-01-C-D-A maintain active production status with identical ROHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity ratings. Selection between these parts should be based on supply chain requirements and assembly process specifications. The tape & reel packaging (TR variant) is optimized for automated pick-and-place assembly operations, while the tray packaging supports manual assembly workflows and alternative handling procedures. Both configurations deliver equivalent electrical performance and mechanical reliability for 60-position surface mount connector applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can QTH-030-01-C-D-A (tray packaging) be used as a direct replacement for QTH-030-01-C-D-A-TR (tape & reel)?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical. The difference is packaging format only. Substitution is valid provided your assembly process can accommodate tray-packaged components.

Q: Are there any performance differences between the tape & reel and tray versions?

A: No. Both versions contain identical connector specifications, contact materials, plating thickness, and mechanical dimensions. Performance is equivalent.

Q: What determines whether a part can substitute for the QTH-030-01-C-D-A-TR?

A: Substitutes must maintain identical specifications across all electrical and mechanical parameters: 60-position configuration, 0.020" pitch, 2-row layout, surface mount design, gold contact finish at 50.0µin thickness, board guide and ground bus features, and ROHS3/MSL 1 compliance. Packaging format is the only allowable variation.

Q: Are both parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. Both QTH-030-01-C-D-A-TR and QTH-030-01-C-D-A carry ROHS3 compliance certification.

Q: What is the moisture sensitivity level for these connectors?

A: Both parts have MSL 1 rating, indicating unlimited shelf life under standard storage conditions without baking requirements.
