• Number of Rows: 1
• Number of Positions Loaded: 3
• Connector Type: Header, Cuttable
• Contact Type: Male Pin
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount
• Termination: Solder
• Fastening Type: Push-Pull
• Contact Length - Mating: 0.230" (5.84mm)
• Insulation Height: 0.100" (2.54mm)
• Contact Shape: Square
• Contact Finish - Mating: Gold
• Contact Finish Thickness - Mating: 30.0µin (0.76µm)
• Contact Finish - Post: Tin

All identified substitute parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications across these parameters. Variations in packaging format (Tube vs. Bulk) and optional features (Pick and Place capability) do not affect functional interchangeability.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All substitute parts—TSM-104-01-S-SV-004, TSM-104-01-S-SV-P-003, and TSM-104-01-S-SV-003—are functionally equivalent to TSM-104-01-S-SV-002 and maintain full compliance with ROHS3 and UL94 V-0 flammability requirements. Selection among these parts is based on packaging requirements and manufacturing process considerations:

TSM-104-01-S-SV-002 is supplied in Tube packaging, suitable for manual assembly and lower-volume applications.

TSM-104-01-S-SV-004 and TSM-104-01-S-SV-003 are supplied in Bulk packaging, appropriate for high-volume production environments.

TSM-104-01-S-SV-P-003 includes Pick and Place feature designation, indicating suitability for automated assembly processes.

All parts share identical electrical performance, thermal operating range, contact materials, and surface finishes. Substitution decisions should be driven by procurement availability, packaging format compatibility with assembly processes, and inventory levels.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are TSM-104-01-S-SV-004, TSM-104-01-S-SV-P-003, and TSM-104-01-S-SV-003 direct replacements for TSM-104-01-S-SV-002?

A: Yes. All four part numbers are functionally equivalent. They share identical electrical and mechanical specifications, including pitch, contact configuration, termination method, and operating temperature range. Differences in packaging format (Tube vs. Bulk) and optional features (Pick and Place) do not affect functional interchangeability in the circuit.

Q: What is the difference between Tube and Bulk packaging?

A: Tube packaging supplies individual parts in protective tubes, typically used for manual assembly and lower-volume production. Bulk packaging supplies parts in larger quantities without individual tube protection, optimized for automated pick-and-place assembly systems and high-volume manufacturing.

Q: Does the Pick and Place feature on TSM-104-01-S-SV-P-003 affect compatibility?

A: No. The Pick and Place designation indicates the part is optimized for automated assembly equipment. The electrical and mechanical specifications remain identical to other variants. This feature does not impact functional compatibility in the circuit.

Q: Are all substitute parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. TSM-104-01-S-SV-002, TSM-104-01-S-SV-004, TSM-104-01-S-SV-P-003, and TSM-104-01-S-SV-003 are all ROHS3 compliant with UL94 V-0 flammability rating.

Q: Can I use these parts interchangeably on the same PCB assembly?

A: Yes. All parts maintain identical footprints, solder pad configurations, and mechanical dimensions. They can be used interchangeably without PCB redesign or assembly process modification.

Q: What is the Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) for these connectors?

A: All parts have MSL 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions. Standard storage and handling practices apply.
