Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the QTH-060-02-F-D-A-TR are identified based on electrical and mechanical parameter equivalence. The primary substitution criterion is the maintenance of identical specifications across the following parameters:

• Number of positions: 120
• Pitch: 0.020" (0.50mm)
• Number of rows: 2
• Connector type: Header, Outer Shroud Contacts
• Mounting type: Surface Mount
• Contact finish: Gold with 3.00µin thickness
• Height above board: 0.286" (7.26mm)
• Mated stacking heights: 8mm
• Features: Board Guide, Ground Bus (Plane)
• Series: Q Strip® QTH
• Product status: Active
• RoHS compliance: ROHS3 Compliant
• MSL rating: 1 (Unlimited)

The identified substitute part differs only in packaging format, which does not affect electrical or mechanical performance. Packaging variations are acceptable substitutes when component specifications remain identical and compliance certifications are maintained.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the QTH-060-02-F-D-A-TR and QTH-060-02-F-D-A are active production parts manufactured by Samtec Inc. with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection between these parts is determined by packaging requirements and inventory availability.

The QTH-060-02-F-D-A-TR is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format, suitable for automated assembly processes. The QTH-060-02-F-D-A is supplied in Tray format, suitable for manual assembly or alternative handling requirements.

Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating, confirming suitability for standard manufacturing environments without special moisture control requirements. Component selection should be based on assembly process requirements and packaging compatibility with production equipment.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can QTH-060-02-F-D-A be used as a direct replacement for QTH-060-02-F-D-A-TR?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical. The difference is packaging format only. QTH-060-02-F-D-A-TR uses Tape & Reel packaging, while QTH-060-02-F-D-A uses Tray packaging. Selection depends on assembly process compatibility.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between these parts?

A: No. Both parts carry identical RoHS3 compliance and MSL 1 ratings. Regulatory and environmental compliance is equivalent.

Q: What is the significance of the packaging difference?

A: Tape & Reel (TR) format is optimized for automated pick-and-place assembly equipment. Tray format is used for manual assembly or alternative handling methods. The connector itself functions identically regardless of packaging.

Q: Do both parts have the same contact specifications?

A: Yes. Both parts feature 120 gold-plated contacts with 3.00µin finish thickness, 0.020" (0.50mm) pitch, and identical mechanical dimensions.

Q: Is inventory availability a factor in part selection?

A: Inventory levels may influence procurement decisions. QTH-060-02-F-D-A currently has 1916 units in stock, while QTH-060-02-F-D-A-TR has 1171 units available. Both are in active production.
