Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the TSW-110-05-G-D-LL and HTSW-110-05-G-D-LL are active products from Samtec Inc. with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection between these parts should be based on:

Product Availability: Choose based on current inventory status and lead time requirements. The TSW-110-05-G-D-LL currently has 886 pieces in stock, while the HTSW-110-05-G-D-LL has 668 pieces available.

Compliance Requirements: Both parts meet ROHS3 compliance and UL94 V-0 flammability standards, suitable for applications requiring these certifications.

Insulation Material Consideration: The TSW-110-05-G-D-LL uses Polybutylene Terephthalate (PBT) insulation with MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited), while the HTSW-110-05-G-D-LL uses Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP) insulation with MSL Not Applicable. For moisture-sensitive applications, the TSW-110-05-G-D-LL provides explicit moisture handling specifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are TSW-110-05-G-D-LL and HTSW-110-05-G-D-LL electrically interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both connectors have identical electrical specifications including contact material (Phosphor Bronze), contact finish (Gold at 10.0µin thickness), pitch (0.100"), and operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C).

Q: What are the mechanical compatibility requirements for substitution?

A: The substitute part must maintain identical pitch spacing (0.100" mating pitch and 0.100" row spacing), contact length dimensions (0.105" mating, 0.130" post), overall contact length (0.335"), and insulation height (0.100"). Both listed parts meet these requirements.

Q: Does insulation material affect connector performance?

A: Insulation material does not affect electrical performance or mechanical fit. The TSW-110-05-G-D-LL uses PBT while the HTSW-110-05-G-D-LL uses LCP. Both materials meet UL94 V-0 flammability requirements and are suitable for the specified operating temperature range.

Q: Are there differences in moisture sensitivity between these parts?

A: The TSW-110-05-G-D-LL specifies MSL 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity limitations. The HTSW-110-05-G-D-LL lists MSL as Not Applicable. For applications with specific moisture handling requirements, verify compatibility with your assembly process.

Q: Can these connectors be used in high-temperature applications?

A: Both connectors operate across -55°C to 125°C. Applications requiring operation at the upper temperature limit should verify that all mated components and PCB materials are rated for 125°C continuous operation.

Q: What fastening method do these connectors use?

A: Both connectors use push-pull fastening with kinked pin solder termination for through-hole mounting. Ensure PCB design accommodates the 0.130" post length for proper solder joint formation.
