TSM-109-01-S-SV Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The TSM-109-01-S-SV is a surface mount rectangular connector header manufactured by Samtec Inc. This 9-position, single-row connector operates at 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch and is designed for board-to-board or cable applications. The part is currently active in production with 660 units in stock. Equivalent and substitute parts are identified to support procurement flexibility, inventory management, and design continuity when the primary part becomes unavailable or when alternative sourcing is required.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The substitute part 5-146128-7 (TE Connectivity AMP Connectors) qualifies as an equivalent based on the following critical parameters:

• Pitch and Position Compatibility: Both parts maintain 0.100" (2.54mm) mating pitch with 9 positions in a single row, ensuring mechanical and electrical interchangeability at the mating interface.
• Mounting and Termination: Both are surface mount connectors with solder termination, compatible with identical PCB footprints.
• Contact Configuration: Both feature male pin contacts with gold-plated mating surfaces and square contact geometry.
• Insulation Material: Both use Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP) insulation in black, providing equivalent mechanical and thermal properties.
• Regulatory Compliance: Both are ROHS3 compliant with UL94 V-0 flammability rating and MSL 1 moisture sensitivity level.

Differences in connector type designation (Cuttable vs. Breakaway), insulation height (0.100" vs. 0.090"), and operating temperature range do not prevent functional substitution when application requirements fall within the substitute part's specifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the TSM-109-01-S-SV and 5-146128-7 are active production parts with equivalent regulatory compliance. Selection between these parts should be based on application-specific operating temperature requirements and inventory availability.

The TSM-109-01-S-SV supports an operating temperature range of -55°C to 125°C, making it suitable for applications requiring extended high-temperature operation. The 5-146128-7 operates from -65°C to 105°C, providing superior low-temperature performance but with a reduced upper temperature limit.

Both parts carry ROHS3 compliance and UL94 V-0 flammability certification, meeting standard industrial and consumer electronics requirements. The MSL 1 rating for both parts indicates unlimited shelf life under standard storage conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 5-146128-7 be used as a direct replacement for the TSM-109-01-S-SV?

A: Yes, for applications where the operating temperature range of -65°C to 105°C is acceptable. The critical parameters—pitch, position count, mounting type, termination method, and contact configuration—are identical. The primary consideration is the reduced upper temperature limit of the TE Connectivity part.

Q: What is the difference between "Cuttable" and "Breakaway" connector types?

A: Both designations refer to connector headers that can be separated into individual positions or smaller groups. The functional mating characteristics remain equivalent for board-to-board applications.

Q: Are the PCB footprints identical between these two parts?

A: The mating pitch (0.100"), contact length (0.230"), and number of positions (9) are identical. However, the insulation height differs (0.100" vs. 0.090"), which may affect clearance considerations in space-constrained designs. Verify PCB layout compatibility before substitution.

Q: Do both parts meet the same regulatory standards?

A: Yes. Both parts are ROHS3 compliant, carry UL94 V-0 flammability ratings, and have MSL 1 moisture sensitivity levels. Both are suitable for equivalent regulatory environments.

Q: What is the inventory status for each part?

A: The TSM-109-01-S-SV has 660 units in stock. The 5-146128-7 has 952 units in stock. Availability may vary based on current procurement cycles.
