• Pitch: 0.020" (0.50mm)
• 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: 0.286" (7.26mm)
• Mated Stacking Height: 8mm
• Series: Q Strip® QTH
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)

The identified substitute differs only in packaging configuration, maintaining complete electrical and mechanical compatibility with the original specification.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both QTH-060-02-F-D-A-K and QTH-060-02-F-D-A-K-TR are functionally equivalent components with Active product status and full regulatory compliance. Selection between these parts is determined by packaging and supply chain requirements rather than electrical or mechanical performance.

The QTH-060-02-F-D-A-K in Tray packaging is suitable for manual assembly, prototype builds, and lower-volume production runs. The QTH-060-02-F-D-A-K-TR in Tape & Reel packaging is optimized for automated pick-and-place assembly and high-volume manufacturing operations. Both parts maintain identical contact specifications, dimensional characteristics, and compliance certifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are QTH-060-02-F-D-A-K and QTH-060-02-F-D-A-K-TR electrically interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically identical with 120 positions, 0.020" pitch, gold-plated contacts at 3.00µin thickness, and identical mating stacking heights of 8mm.

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

A: Tray packaging is used for manual handling and lower-volume applications. Tape & Reel packaging is designed for automated assembly equipment and high-volume production. The components themselves are identical.

Q: Can I use QTH-060-02-F-D-A-K-TR as a direct replacement for QTH-060-02-F-D-A-K?

A: Yes, provided your assembly process supports Tape & Reel input. All electrical, mechanical, and dimensional specifications are identical.

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both parts are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and carry MSL 1 (unlimited moisture sensitivity rating).

Q: What are the board-level dimensions for this connector?

A: Height above board is 0.286" (7.26mm) with a mated stacking height of 8mm. Both substitute parts maintain these identical dimensions.
