Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are all listed parts electrically interchangeable with TSM-108-01-SS-DV?

A: Yes. All substitute parts maintain identical electrical specifications including contact material (Phosphor Bronze), contact finish (Gold at 30.0µin mating surface, Tin post), pitch (2.54mm), number of positions (16), and operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C).

Q: What is the difference between parts with and without the "P" suffix?

A: The "P" suffix indicates Pick and Place feature, which provides compatibility with automated assembly equipment. Parts without this suffix are suitable for manual or standard assembly processes. Electrical and mechanical compatibility remains unchanged.

Q: What does the "LC" designation indicate?

A: The "LC" designation indicates Board Lock feature, which provides positive mechanical retention between mating connectors. This feature enhances connection stability in applications subject to vibration or mechanical stress. Core electrical specifications remain identical.

Q: What does the "A" designation indicate?

A: The "A" designation indicates Board Guide feature, which assists in proper alignment during connector mating. This feature improves ease of assembly without affecting electrical performance.

Q: Can I substitute TSM-108-01-SS-DV with TSM-108-01-S-DV-LC-P?

A: Yes. TSM-108-01-S-DV-LC-P is electrically and mechanically equivalent. It includes both Board Lock and Pick and Place features, which are additive enhancements that do not compromise compatibility with applications designed for the base specification.

Q: Are all parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. All listed substitute parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and UL94 V-0 flammability rating, consistent with the main part specification.

Q: Which substitute part has the highest inventory availability?

A: TSM-108-01-S-DV maintains the highest inventory with 3039 Pcs in stock, followed by TSM-108-01-S-DV-A with 1137 Pcs.

Q: Do optional features affect PCB layout or footprint?

A: No. All substitute parts maintain identical pitch (2.54mm), row spacing (2.54mm), insulation height (2.54mm), and contact length (5.84mm). PCB footprints and layouts remain unchanged across all variants.
