Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both TSS-110-05-G-D-RA and TST-110-05-G-D-RA are active production parts with ROHS3 compliance and UL94 V-0 flammability certification. Selection between these parts depends on application-specific requirements:

The TSS-110-05-G-D-RA supports board-to-board or cable configurations with standard PBT insulation material. The TST-110-05-G-D-RA supports board-to-cable/wire configurations with glass-filled PBT insulation and specifies a current rating of 3.4A per contact. Applications requiring enhanced mechanical strength or higher current specifications may benefit from the TST variant. Both parts maintain identical pitch, row spacing, contact geometry, and operating temperature range, ensuring mechanical and electrical compatibility within their respective application scopes.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can TST-110-05-G-D-RA replace TSS-110-05-G-D-RA in all applications?

A: Substitution is valid when the application requirements align with the TST variant's specifications. The TST-110-05-G-D-RA is designed for board-to-cable/wire connections, while the TSS-110-05-G-D-RA supports board-to-board or cable configurations. Verify the intended connection style before substitution.

Q: What is the significance of glass-filled PBT insulation in the TST-110-05-G-D-RA?

A: Glass-filled PBT provides enhanced mechanical strength and thermal stability compared to standard PBT. This material modification does not affect electrical compatibility but may improve durability in applications subject to mechanical stress or thermal cycling.

Q: Are the contact pitch and row spacing identical between these parts?

A: Yes. Both parts feature 0.100" (2.54mm) mating pitch and 0.100" (2.54mm) row spacing, ensuring mechanical interchangeability at the connector interface level.

Q: Does the TST-110-05-G-D-RA current rating of 3.4A per contact apply to the TSS-110-05-G-D-RA?

A: The TSS-110-05-G-D-RA does not specify a current rating in the provided data. Applications requiring defined current specifications should reference the TST-110-05-G-D-RA specification or consult manufacturer documentation for TSS current handling capacity.

Q: Are both parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. Both TSS-110-05-G-D-RA and TST-110-05-G-D-RA are ROHS3 compliant with UL94 V-0 flammability rating and MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity level.
