Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the TSM-124-01-L-DV are qualified based on strict electrical and mechanical parameter matching within the TSM series. All substitute parts maintain identical specifications for the following critical parameters:

• Number of positions: 48
• Number of rows: 2
• Pitch - mating: 0.100" (2.54mm)
• Row spacing - mating: 0.100" (2.54mm)
• Connector type: Header, Cuttable
• Contact type: Male Pin
• Mounting type: Surface Mount
• Termination: Solder
• Contact length - mating: 0.230" (5.84mm)
• Insulation height: 0.100" (2.54mm)
• Contact shape: Square
• Contact finish - mating: Gold at 10.0µin (0.25µm)
• Contact finish - post: Tin
• Contact material: Phosphor Bronze
• Insulation material: Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP)
• Operating temperature: -55°C ~ 125°C
• Material flammability rating: UL94 V-0
• Insulation color: Black
• Product status: Active
• RoHS status: ROHS3 Compliant
• Moisture sensitivity level: 1 (Unlimited)

Substitutes differ only in optional features (Board Guide, Pick and Place, Board Lock) that do not affect core electrical or mechanical compatibility. All substitute parts are manufactured by Samtec Inc. within the same TSM series and base product number TSM-124.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All four parts in this substitution group are manufactured by Samtec Inc., carry Active product status, and maintain ROHS3 compliance with UL94 V-0 flammability rating. Selection between TSM-124-01-L-DV and its substitutes is determined by application-specific feature requirements:

• TSM-124-01-L-DV: Base configuration without additional features. Select when standard header functionality is required without board retention or automated assembly enhancements.

• TSM-124-01-L-DV-LC: Includes Board Lock feature. Select when mechanical retention between mated connectors is required to prevent accidental disconnection.

• TSM-124-01-L-DV-A: Includes Board Guide feature. Select when guided mating alignment is required during assembly or field connection operations.

• TSM-124-01-L-DV-A-P: Includes Board Guide and Pick and Place features. Select when both guided mating and automated assembly handling are required in manufacturing processes.

All parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications, operating temperature range, contact materials, and compliance certifications. Feature selection does not affect signal integrity, thermal performance, or environmental ratings.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are all TSM-124-01-L-DV substitute parts electrically interchangeable?

A: Yes. All substitute parts maintain identical electrical specifications including contact material (Phosphor Bronze), contact finish (Gold at 10.0µin mating surface, Tin post), pitch (0.100"), number of positions (48), and operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C). Electrical performance is equivalent across all variants.

Q: What is the difference between the Board Lock and Board Guide features?

A: Board Lock (TSM-124-01-L-DV-LC) provides mechanical retention to prevent accidental mating pair separation. Board Guide (TSM-124-01-L-DV-A and TSM-124-01-L-DV-A-P) provides alignment assistance during mating operations. These are distinct mechanical features that do not affect electrical compatibility.

Q: Can TSM-124-01-L-DV-A-P be used in applications that do not require Pick and Place capability?

A: Yes. The Pick and Place feature is a manufacturing convenience that does not affect the connector's electrical or mechanical performance in the final application. TSM-124-01-L-DV-A-P is fully compatible with applications requiring only standard header functionality.

Q: Are all substitute parts available in the same packaging?

A: Yes. All parts are supplied in Tube packaging. Packaging format is identical across TSM-124-01-L-DV, TSM-124-01-L-DV-LC, TSM-124-01-L-DV-A, and TSM-124-01-L-DV-A-P.

Q: Do substitute parts have different moisture sensitivity requirements?

A: No. All parts carry Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) 1 (Unlimited), indicating no special moisture control is required during storage, handling, or assembly.

Q: What is the base product number for all these connectors?

A: The base product number is TSM-124. All four variants (TSM-124-01-L-DV, TSM-124-01-L-DV-LC, TSM-124-01-L-DV-A, TSM-124-01-L-DV-A-P) are derived from this base platform with feature suffixes.
