Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The TMM-106-02-G-S qualifies TMM-106-01-G-S as a substitute based on the following critical parameters:

Both parts share identical specifications for:

• Manufacturer (Samtec Inc.)
• Series (TMM)
• Number of positions (6)
• Pitch - Mating (0.079" / 2.00mm)
• Connector type (Header)
• Contact type (Male Pin)
• Mounting type (Through Hole)
• Termination method (Solder)
• Fastening type (Push-Pull)
• Current rating (3.2A per Contact)
• Operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C)
• Contact material (Phosphor Bronze)
• Contact finish (Gold)
• Insulation material (Liquid Crystal Polymer)
• RoHS compliance (ROHS3)

The primary difference between these parts is the contact length specification, which affects mating depth and overall connector profile. This difference does not prevent substitution when the application accommodates the dimensional variance.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both TMM-106-02-G-S and TMM-106-01-G-S are active production components with ROHS3 compliance and identical electrical and thermal specifications. Selection between these parts should be based on:

Contact length requirements: The TMM-106-02-G-S features a longer mating contact length (0.146" vs 0.126") and shorter post length (0.118" vs 0.138"), making it suitable for applications requiring deeper mating engagement. The TMM-106-01-G-S provides greater post length for applications requiring extended solder tail engagement on the PCB.

Inventory availability: TMM-106-01-G-S maintains higher stock levels (2082 units) compared to TMM-106-02-G-S (705 units), which may influence procurement decisions for high-volume applications.

Both parts maintain identical overall contact length (0.323"), insulation height, and mechanical interface dimensions, ensuring compatibility with the same connector receptacles and mating components.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can TMM-106-01-G-S be used as a direct replacement for TMM-106-02-G-S?

A: TMM-106-01-G-S is electrically and mechanically compatible with TMM-106-02-G-S for applications where the contact length difference does not affect performance. The primary distinction is the mating contact length (0.126" vs 0.146") and post length (0.138" vs 0.118"). Verify that your PCB layout and mating connector accommodate the different post length before substitution.

Q: What is the significance of the contact length difference?

A: Contact length determines mating depth and engagement characteristics. The TMM-106-02-G-S provides greater mating contact length for deeper insertion, while the TMM-106-01-G-S provides greater post length for extended solder engagement on the PCB. Select based on your specific board thickness and mating depth requirements.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes, both TMM-106-02-G-S and TMM-106-01-G-S are ROHS3 compliant and suitable for applications requiring RoHS certification.

Q: Do these parts share the same mating interface?

A: Yes, both parts maintain identical pitch (0.079" / 2.00mm), number of positions (6), and overall contact length (0.323"), ensuring compatibility with the same receptacles and mating connectors.

Q: What is the current-carrying capacity?

A: Both parts are rated for 3.2A per contact, supporting identical electrical load specifications across all six positions.
