Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the TSW-105-09-G-D-RA is determined by the following critical parameters:

  • Connector Type & Contact Type: Must be Header with Male Pin configuration
  • Position & Row Configuration: Must maintain 10 positions across 2 rows
  • Pitch Specifications: Mating pitch and row spacing must both be 0.100" (2.54mm)
  • Mounting & Termination: Must be Through Hole, Right Angle with Solder termination
  • Contact Finish: Gold plating on mating surfaces
  • Contact Material: Phosphor Bronze construction
  • Operating Temperature Range: -55°C ~ 125°C
  • Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant with UL94 V-0 flammability rating

The HTSW-105-09-G-D-RA qualifies as a substitute part because it matches all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. Variations in insulation material (LCP vs. PBT) and insulation height do not affect functional compatibility when the core mating and termination specifications remain identical.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the TSW-105-09-G-D-RA and HTSW-105-09-G-D-RA are active products from Samtec Inc. with identical compliance certifications (ROHS3 Compliant, UL94 V-0). The parts share all critical electrical and mechanical specifications including connector type, position configuration, pitch spacing, contact materials, and operating temperature range.

The HTSW-105-09-G-D-RA may be selected as a substitute based on product availability and supply chain status. Both parts maintain equivalent functional performance in applications requiring through-hole, right-angle header connectors with 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch spacing and solder termination.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can HTSW-105-09-G-D-RA be used as a direct replacement for TSW-105-09-G-D-RA?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical connector type, contact configuration, pitch spacing, mounting orientation, and termination method. The core mating and electrical characteristics are equivalent.

Q: What is the difference in insulation material between these parts?

A: The TSW-105-09-G-D-RA uses Polybutylene Terephthalate (PBT) insulation, while the HTSW-105-09-G-D-RA uses Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP). Both materials meet UL94 V-0 flammability requirements and do not affect connector functionality or compatibility.

Q: Are there differences in insulation height?

A: The TSW-105-09-G-D-RA has an insulation height of 0.219" (5.56mm), while the HTSW-105-09-G-D-RA measures 0.240" (6.10mm). This variation does not impact mating compatibility or electrical performance.
