Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the TSW-102-07-SS-D are identified based on strict equivalence of the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type: Header
• Contact Type: Male Pin
• Number of Positions: 4
• Number of Rows: 2
• Pitch - Mating: 0.100" (2.54mm)
• Row Spacing - Mating: 0.100" (2.54mm)
• Mounting Type: Through Hole
• Termination: Solder
• Contact Finish - Mating: Gold
• Contact Material: Phosphor Bronze
• Operating Temperature: -55°C ~ 125°C
• Material Flammability Rating: UL94 V-0
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant

The identified substitutes maintain these core parameters while permitting variations in insulation material composition and series designation, which do not affect functional compatibility in standard through-hole applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three parts—TSW-102-07-SS-D, TSW-102-07-S-D, and HTSW-102-07-SM-D—maintain Active product status and full ROHS3 compliance. Selection between these parts is determined by insulation material requirements and series compatibility within the target application.

TSW-102-07-SS-D and TSW-102-07-S-D both utilize Polybutylene Terephthalate (PBT) insulation and belong to the TSW series. HTSW-102-07-SM-D employs Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP) insulation and belongs to the HTSW series. The choice between PBT and LCP insulation materials depends on specific application thermal and mechanical requirements, as both materials satisfy the stated UL94 V-0 flammability rating and operating temperature range.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can TSW-102-07-S-D directly replace TSW-102-07-SS-D?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical and mechanical specifications, including connector type, contact configuration, pitch, mounting method, and operating temperature range. The parts differ only in series designation within the TSW family.

Q: What is the difference between TSW and HTSW series connectors?

A: The primary difference is insulation material composition. TSW series uses Polybutylene Terephthalate (PBT), while HTSW series uses Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP). Both materials meet UL94 V-0 flammability requirements and support the -55°C to 125°C operating temperature range.

Q: Is HTSW-102-07-SM-D compatible with applications designed for TSW-102-07-SS-D?

A: Functional compatibility is maintained across all three parts due to equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters. However, the insulation material difference (LCP versus PBT) may affect thermal performance and mechanical properties in specific applications. Design verification is necessary when substituting between series.

Q: Are all three parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. TSW-102-07-SS-D, TSW-102-07-S-D, and HTSW-102-07-SM-D are all ROHS3 compliant.

Q: What is the moisture sensitivity level for these connectors?

A: TSW-102-07-SS-D and TSW-102-07-S-D have MSL 1 (Unlimited). HTSW-102-07-SM-D is classified as Not Applicable for MSL.
