Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the TSW-106-25-S-D is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type: Header
• Contact Type: Male Pin
• Number of Positions: 12
• Number of Rows: 2
• Pitch - Mating: 0.100" (2.54mm)
• Row Spacing - Mating: 0.100" (2.54mm)
• Mounting Type: Through Hole
• Termination: Solder
• Contact Material: Phosphor Bronze
• Contact Finish - Mating: Gold
• Contact Finish - Post: Tin
• Insulation Material: Polybutylene Terephthalate (PBT)
• Operating Temperature: -55°C ~ 125°C
• Material Flammability Rating: UL94 V-0
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant

Parts meeting all these specifications are classified as direct equivalents. Deviations in any critical parameter disqualify a part from substitution consideration.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The TSW-106-25-S-D maintains Active product status with full ROHS3 compliance and UL94 V-0 material certification. Selection of equivalent parts should prioritize components with identical product status and regulatory compliance. The part's MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited) indicates no moisture sensitivity constraints during storage or handling. All substitute candidates must maintain the same compliance certifications and active manufacturing status to ensure long-term supply chain reliability and regulatory adherence in production environments.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What defines a direct equivalent for the TSW-106-25-S-D? A: A direct equivalent must match all critical parameters including connector type (Header), contact type (Male Pin), position count (12), row configuration (2 rows), pitch (0.100"/2.54mm), mounting method (Through Hole), termination (Solder), contact materials and finishes, insulation material (PBT), operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C), flammability rating (UL94 V-0), and RoHS compliance status (ROHS3).

Q: Are there any substitutes available for the TSW-106-25-S-D? A: Based on the provided data, the TSW-106-25-S-D is listed as its own substitute, indicating it is the primary part number for this specification. No alternative part numbers meeting all critical parameters have been provided.

Q: What is the significance of the 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch specification? A: The 0.100" pitch is a standard spacing measurement between mating contacts and between rows. This specification is critical for mechanical compatibility with mating connectors and PCB footprints. Any substitute must maintain this exact pitch to ensure proper alignment and electrical connection.

Q: Does the MSL rating of 1 affect component handling? A: MSL 1 (Unlimited) indicates the component has no moisture sensitivity limitations. Standard handling procedures apply without special moisture control requirements during storage, transportation, or assembly.

Q: What compliance certifications are relevant for this connector? A: The TSW-106-25-S-D carries ROHS3 compliance and UL94 V-0 material flammability certification. These certifications confirm regulatory compliance for environmental and safety standards in electronic applications.
