TSS-130-01-G-D Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The TSS-130-01-G-D is a rectangular connector header manufactured by Samtec Inc., classified as a through-hole board-to-board or cable connector with 60 positions arranged in 2 rows at 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch. This connector features shrouded 4-wall construction with solder termination and push-pull fastening. The part is currently active in production with 972 units in stock. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters align with the core mating specifications, allowing for component interchangeability in applications where the primary part is unavailable or procurement constraints exist.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the TSS-130-01-G-D is determined by strict alignment of the following core parameters:

• Connector Type: Header
• Contact Type: Male Pin
• Number of Positions: 60
• Number of Rows: 2
• Pitch - Mating: 0.100" (2.54mm)
• Row Spacing - Mating: 0.100" (2.54mm)
• Shrouding: Shrouded - 4 Wall
• Mounting Type: Through Hole
• Termination: Solder
• Fastening Type: Push-Pull
• Contact Shape: Square
• Material Flammability Rating: UL94 V-0
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)

The substitute part 1-5103308-2 (TE Connectivity AMP Connectors) meets all critical mating interface parameters and compliance requirements, establishing functional equivalence for applications requiring a 60-position 2.54mm pitch shrouded header with push-pull fastening and solder termination.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the TSS-130-01-G-D and 1-5103308-2 are active production parts with ROHS3 compliance and UL94 V-0 flammability ratings. The mating interface parameters—pitch, position count, row configuration, shrouding, and fastening mechanism—are identical, establishing mechanical and electrical compatibility for board-level interconnection applications.

Differences in contact finish composition (gold versus tin post finish), contact material (phosphor bronze versus brass), and operating temperature ranges (-55°C to 125°C versus -65°C to 105°C) are secondary to the primary mating interface specification. Selection between these parts should be based on application-specific requirements for contact durability, thermal environment, and post-solder reliability rather than mating compatibility.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are the TSS-130-01-G-D and 1-5103308-2 mechanically interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical mating pitch (0.100"), position count (60), row configuration (2 rows), shrouding (4-wall), and fastening mechanism (push-pull). The physical mating interface is equivalent.

Q: What are the differences in contact specifications?

A: The TSS-130-01-G-D uses phosphor bronze contacts with gold finish on both mating and post surfaces. The 1-5103308-2 uses brass contacts with gold or gold-palladium mating finish and tin post finish. These material differences affect contact wear characteristics and solder joint formation but do not prevent functional substitution.

Q: Do the operating temperature ranges differ?

A: Yes. The TSS-130-01-G-D operates from -55°C to 125°C, while the 1-5103308-2 operates from -65°C to 105°C. Application thermal requirements should guide part selection if operation at temperature extremes is required.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both the TSS-130-01-G-D and 1-5103308-2 are ROHS3 compliant with Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited).

Q: What is the difference in packaging?

A: The TSS-130-01-G-D is supplied in bulk packaging, while the 1-5103308-2 is supplied in tube packaging. This affects handling and storage but does not impact electrical or mechanical performance.

Q: Can these connectors be used interchangeably in existing designs?

A: Substitution is valid for applications where the mating interface specification is the primary design constraint. Designs sensitive to contact material composition, post-finish characteristics, or specific operating temperature ranges should be evaluated individually.
