Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution within the TMM series is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters: connector type (Header), contact type (Male Pin), number of positions (20), pitch spacing (0.079" / 2.00mm), mounting type (Surface Mount), termination method (Solder), current rating (3.2A per Contact), and operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C). Both the main part TMM-120-01-LM-S-SM and the substitute part TMM-120-01-L-S-SM share identical specifications across all these parameters, confirming direct substitutability. The difference in part numbering reflects variant coding within the TMM-120 base product family but does not alter electrical or mechanical compatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both TMM-120-01-LM-S-SM and TMM-120-01-L-S-SM are active products with full ROHS3 compliance and UL94 V-0 material flammability certification. Selection between these parts should be based on inventory availability and procurement lead times. The TMM-120-01-L-S-SM currently maintains higher stock levels (1766 pcs versus 837 pcs), making it the preferred choice for applications requiring immediate availability. Both parts meet identical electrical and mechanical specifications and are suitable for direct substitution in surface mount board-to-board or cable connector applications operating within the -55°C to 125°C temperature range.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
