Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the TFM-110-13-S-D and TFM-110-03-S-D-WT are active products with ROHS3 compliance and identical electrical specifications. The primary distinction is the insulation height: the TFM-110-13-S-D provides 0.290" (7.37mm) while the TFM-110-03-S-D-WT provides 0.220" (5.60mm). The TFM-110-03-S-D-WT includes solder retention as an additional feature. Selection between these parts depends on PCB layout constraints and the specific insulation height requirement for your application. Both parts maintain identical contact ratings, voltage specifications, and temperature operating ranges, ensuring functional equivalence in electrical performance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can TFM-110-03-S-D-WT be used as a direct replacement for TFM-110-13-S-D?

A: Both parts share identical electrical specifications, contact configuration, pitch, and mounting characteristics. The primary difference is insulation height. If your PCB layout accommodates the 0.220" (5.60mm) insulation height of the TFM-110-03-S-D-WT, it functions as an equivalent substitute. Verify PCB clearance requirements before substitution.

Q: What is the significance of the insulation height difference?

A: Insulation height affects the vertical profile of the connector on the PCB. The TFM-110-13-S-D at 0.290" (7.37mm) provides greater clearance above the board, while the TFM-110-03-S-D-WT at 0.220" (5.60mm) offers a lower profile. Selection depends on available vertical space in your assembly.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes, both TFM-110-13-S-D and TFM-110-03-S-D-WT are ROHS3 compliant.

Q: What does the solder retention feature on TFM-110-03-S-D-WT provide?

A: Solder retention is a mechanical feature that aids in maintaining contact position during the soldering process, reducing the risk of contact displacement.

Q: Do both parts support the same current and voltage ratings?

A: Yes, both parts are rated for 2.9A per contact and 275VAC, with identical operating temperature ranges of -55°C to 125°C.
