Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three parts (TMM-103-01-L-S-RE, TMM-103-01-L-S-RA, and TMM-103-01-LM-S-RA) maintain active product status and ROHS3 compliance, confirming their suitability for current applications. The electrical and mechanical specifications are identical across all three variants, including current rating, operating temperature range, contact materials, and termination methods. Selection between these parts should be based on availability and inventory levels, as all three are functionally equivalent for board-to-board or cable connector applications requiring 3-position, 2.00mm pitch headers with solder termination.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can TMM-103-01-L-S-RA be used as a direct replacement for TMM-103-01-L-S-RE?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical and mechanical specifications, including 3-position configuration, 0.079" (2.00mm) pitch, 3.2A current rating per contact, and -55°C to 125°C operating temperature range. The parts are functionally equivalent for through-hole, right-angle solder termination applications.

Q: What is the difference between TMM-103-01-L-S-RE and TMM-103-01-LM-S-RA?

A: Both parts maintain identical connector specifications, pitch, position count, current rating, and operating temperature. The part number variation reflects design nomenclature differences within the TMM series but does not affect functional compatibility or electrical performance.

Q: Are all three parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. TMM-103-01-L-S-RE, TMM-103-01-L-S-RA, and TMM-103-01-LM-S-RA are all ROHS3 compliant, meeting environmental and regulatory requirements for lead-free solder applications.
