TSW-111-10-G-S-RE Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The TSW-111-10-G-S-RE is an 11-position rectangular connector header manufactured by Samtec Inc., designed for through-hole, right-angle board-to-board or cable applications. This connector features a 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch with male pin contacts, gold-plated phosphor bronze construction, and operates across -55°C to 125°C. The part is Active status and ROHS3 compliant. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters align with the main part's specifications, enabling direct replacement in applications where the connector footprint and contact configuration remain unchanged.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the TSW-111-10-G-S-RE are qualified based on the following critical parameters that determine functional equivalence:

• Number of Positions: 11 positions (fixed requirement)
• Pitch - Mating: 0.100" (2.54mm) (fixed requirement)
• Connector Type: Header (fixed requirement)
• Contact Type: Male Pin (fixed requirement)
• Mounting Type: Through Hole, Right Angle (fixed requirement)
• Termination: Solder (fixed requirement)
• Contact Material: Phosphor Bronze (fixed requirement)
• Contact Finish - Mating: Gold (fixed requirement)
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C ~ 125°C (fixed requirement)
• Material Flammability Rating: UL94 V-0 (fixed requirement)
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant (fixed requirement)

Substitute parts must maintain identical values across all these parameters. Variations in insulation material, insulation height, or series designation do not affect functional substitution when all critical electrical and mechanical parameters remain constant.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three parts—TSW-111-10-G-S-RE, HTSW-111-10-G-S-RA, and TSW-111-10-G-S-RA—are Active status products manufactured by Samtec Inc. and maintain ROHS3 compliance with UL94 V-0 flammability certification. The electrical and mechanical parameters that govern connector functionality are identical across all three parts.

TSW-111-10-G-S-RA is the primary substitute, sharing the same series designation (TSW) and insulation material (PBT) as the main part, with identical insulation height and color specifications. This part provides direct functional equivalence with no parameter deviations.

HTSW-111-10-G-S-RA is a secondary substitute from the HTSW series with Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP) insulation material and a marginally different insulation height (0.122" versus 0.119"). Despite these material and dimensional variations, all critical electrical and mechanical parameters remain equivalent, supporting functional substitution in applications where the connector footprint and contact configuration are preserved.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can TSW-111-10-G-S-RA be used as a direct replacement for TSW-111-10-G-S-RE?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical and mechanical parameters, including 11 positions, 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch, male pin contacts, phosphor bronze material with gold plating, through-hole right-angle mounting, solder termination, and -55°C to 125°C operating temperature. The parts are functionally equivalent for board-to-board and cable applications.

Q: What is the difference between HTSW-111-10-G-S-RA and TSW-111-10-G-S-RA?

A: The primary differences are series designation (HTSW versus TSW), insulation material (Liquid Crystal Polymer versus Polybutylene Terephthalate), insulation height (0.122" versus 0.119"), and insulation color (Natural versus Black). All electrical and mechanical parameters remain identical. The choice between these parts depends on application-specific requirements for insulation material properties and physical dimensions.

Q: Are all three parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. TSW-111-10-G-S-RE, HTSW-111-10-G-S-RA, and TSW-111-10-G-S-RA are all ROHS3 compliant with UL94 V-0 flammability certification.

Q: What parameters must remain constant for substitution?

A: Substitution requires equivalence in number of positions (11), pitch (0.100" / 2.54mm), connector type (Header), contact type (Male Pin), mounting type (Through Hole, Right Angle), termination (Solder), contact material (Phosphor Bronze), contact finish (Gold), operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C), and flammability rating (UL94 V-0).

Q: Can these connectors be used interchangeably in existing PCB designs?

A: Yes, provided the PCB footprint accommodates the connector's through-hole mounting pattern and right-angle orientation. The identical contact pitch, length, and shape ensure mechanical and electrical compatibility across all three parts.
