Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the TLW-130-06-L-D and TLW-130-06-G-D are active production parts from Samtec Inc. with full ROHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating. Selection between these parts is based on availability and contact finish specifications. The TLW-130-06-L-D currently maintains higher inventory (810 units) compared to TLW-130-06-G-D (685 units). Both parts meet identical electrical performance requirements and operating conditions. The substitute part TLW-130-06-G-D includes documented contact finish thickness specifications (10.0µin / 0.25µm mating surface, Flash post finish), providing additional process documentation compared to the primary part.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can TLW-130-06-G-D be used as a direct replacement for TLW-130-06-L-D?

A: Yes. Both parts maintain identical pitch, position count, row configuration, current rating, operating temperature range, and mounting specifications. The parts are mechanically and electrically interchangeable.

Q: What is the difference between these two part numbers?

A: The primary difference is contact finish specification documentation. TLW-130-06-G-D provides explicit contact finish thickness values (10.0µin on mating surface, Flash on post), while TLW-130-06-L-D does not specify these values in the provided data. Both use gold-plated phosphor bronze contacts.

Q: Are there any compatibility concerns when substituting between these parts?

A: No compatibility concerns exist. Both connectors use identical mechanical dimensions, contact geometry, insulation materials, and electrical ratings. They are designed within the same Flex Stack TLW series and share the same base product number (TLW-130).

Q: What is the significance of the MSL 1 rating?

A: MSL 1 (Unlimited) indicates these connectors have unlimited shelf life and require no special moisture control during storage or handling. This applies to both the primary and substitute parts.

Q: Do both parts meet current regulatory requirements?

A: Yes. Both TLW-130-06-L-D and TLW-130-06-G-D are ROHS3 compliant and carry EAR99 ECCN classification. Both are active production parts with current manufacturer support.
