Engineering Selection Recommendations

When selecting substitute parts for Samtec TSW-101-14-L-S, review the product status and compliance fields. The primary part is active and ROHS3 compliant, whereas the substitute TE Connectivity 4-103321-0 is obsolete and not ROHS applicable. Both parts share moisture sensitivity levels and ECCN/HTSUS codes as stated. Compliance considerations must be aligned with project requirements and inventory needs.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What defines a suitable substitute for TSW-101-14-L-S?
A1: Suitability is determined by matching connector category, mounting style, termination method, row and position count, shrouding type, board/cable configuration, compliance, and product status as explicitly listed.

Q2: Are all mechanical dimensions guaranteed to match between substitute and main part?
A2: Only values provided in the parameters above are considered. Comparison is strictly limited to listed mechanical fields.

Q3: Will RoHS compliance differ between substitutes?
A3: Yes. TSW-101-14-L-S is ROHS3 compliant. Substitute 4-103321-0 lists RoHS status as not applicable.

Q4: How do inventory levels affect substitution decisions?
A4: Inventory values are provided for reference only. Substitution must be based on parameter matching and product status.

Q5: Is substitute part 4-103321-0 interchangeable in board layouts with TSW-101-14-L-S?
A5: Substitution can only be determined by comparing fields above. Only explicitly listed mechanical and electrical specifications should be used. No unlisted information is considered.

Q6: What is the impact of product status?
A6: Active status indicates current manufacturer support; obsolete status signifies that replacement and lifecycle considerations are required according to engineering process and compliance demands.

Q7: Is packaging or moisture sensitivity relevant for selection?
A7: Both parts are supplied in bulk and listed with MSL 1 (Unlimited), confirming equivalence in those areas for standard assembly or storage processes.
