QTH-060-02-L-D-A-TR Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The QTH-060-02-L-D-A-TR is a 120-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 high-density interconnect applications requiring board-level connectivity. The part maintains Active product status with full RoHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating (MSL 1). Substitute parts are identified when packaging or distribution format differs while maintaining identical electrical and mechanical specifications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the QTH-060-02-L-D-A-TR is determined by equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Number of positions: 120
• Pitch: 0.020" (0.50mm)
• Number of rows: 2
• Connector type: Header with outer shroud contacts
• Mounting type: Surface mount
• Contact finish: Gold at 10.0µin thickness
• Height above board: 0.286" (7.26mm)
• Mated stacking height: 8mm
• Features: Board guide and ground bus plane
• Series: Q Strip® QTH
• RoHS and compliance status: ROHS3 compliant, MSL 1

The identified substitute part differs only in packaging format (Tray versus Tape & Reel), which does not affect electrical or mechanical performance in the application.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the QTH-060-02-L-D-A-TR and QTH-060-02-L-D-A maintain Active product status with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection between these parts is determined by packaging and supply chain requirements rather than functional performance. The Tape & Reel format (TR suffix) is optimized for automated assembly processes, while the Tray format supports manual handling and smaller volume applications. Both parts carry full ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating, confirming suitability for standard manufacturing environments without moisture sensitivity constraints.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

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

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical. The difference is packaging format only. QTH-060-02-L-D-A uses Tray packaging while QTH-060-02-L-D-A-TR uses Tape & Reel. Component performance in the application is unaffected by this distinction.

Q: What does the "-TR" suffix indicate?

A: The "-TR" suffix designates Tape & Reel packaging, a standard format for automated pick-and-place assembly. The base part number QTH-060-02-L-D-A without this suffix indicates Tray packaging.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between these parts?

A: No. Both parts carry identical RoHS3 compliance, MSL 1 rating, REACH unaffected status, and ECCN/HTSUS classifications.

Q: Which packaging format should be selected for high-volume production?

A: Tape & Reel (QTH-060-02-L-D-A-TR) is standard for high-volume automated assembly. Tray packaging (QTH-060-02-L-D-A) is suitable for lower volumes or manual assembly processes.

Q: Do these parts have identical pin configurations and mating heights?

A: Yes. Both parts feature 120 positions in a 2-row configuration with 0.020" pitch, identical height above board (0.286"), and identical mated stacking height (8mm).
