TSW-107-05-G-D-007 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The TSW-107-05-G-D-007 is an active rectangular connector header manufactured by Samtec Inc., designed for through-hole board-to-board or cable applications. This 14-position, 2-row connector with 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch provides solder termination with push-pull fastening. The part is ROHS3 compliant and operates across -55°C to 125°C. Finding equivalent or substitute parts may be necessary due to inventory constraints, supply chain considerations, or specific application requirements while maintaining electrical and mechanical compatibility.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the TSW-107-05-G-D-007 must maintain compatibility across the following critical parameters:

• Connector type (Header)
• Contact type (Male Pin)
• Position count (14 positions)
• Row configuration (2 rows)
• Mating pitch (0.100" / 2.54mm)
• Row spacing (0.100" / 2.54mm)
• Mounting method (Through Hole)
• Termination type (Solder)
• Fastening mechanism (Push-Pull)
• Operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C)
• Flammability rating (UL94 V-0)
• Regulatory compliance (ROHS3)

The HTSW-107-05-G-D-014 meets all these criteria and qualifies as a direct substitute. Variations in insulation material (PBT versus LCP) and insulation color do not affect functional compatibility in standard applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the TSW-107-05-G-D-007 and HTSW-107-05-G-D-014 are active products from Samtec Inc. with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Both maintain ROHS3 compliance and UL94 V-0 flammability certification. The primary difference is insulation material composition: PBT in the TSW series versus LCP in the HTSW series. This material variation does not affect connector function, mating characteristics, or thermal performance within the specified operating range. Selection between these parts may be based on inventory availability, supply chain lead times, or specific application environmental requirements where insulation material properties are a consideration.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can HTSW-107-05-G-D-014 be used as a direct replacement for TSW-107-05-G-D-007?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical electrical and mechanical specifications, including pitch, position count, row configuration, contact materials, contact finishes, operating temperature range, and regulatory compliance. They are functionally interchangeable in standard applications.

Q: What is the difference between PBT and LCP insulation materials in these connectors?

A: PBT (Polybutylene Terephthalate) and LCP (Liquid Crystal Polymer) are both thermoplastic materials rated UL94 V-0. The choice between them depends on specific application requirements such as chemical resistance, dimensional stability, or environmental exposure. Both materials support the same operating temperature range and maintain connector performance.

Q: Are the contact specifications identical between these two parts?

A: Yes. Both parts feature phosphor bronze contacts with gold plating. Contact length, contact finish thickness, contact shape, and contact material specifications are identical.

Q: Do these connectors require any special handling or storage considerations?

A: The TSW-107-05-G-D-007 has Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity. The HTSW-107-05-G-D-014 is listed as Not Applicable for MSL, indicating equivalent or superior moisture resistance. Standard component storage practices apply to both.

Q: What is the significance of the 13 positions loaded specification?

A: Both connectors are 14-position headers with 13 positions loaded, meaning one position is not populated with a contact. This is a standard configuration for these connector series.
