SDL-134-G-12 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The SDL-134-G-12 is a 68-position receptacle connector manufactured by Samtec Inc., designed for board-to-board applications with 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch spacing. This connector features through-hole solder termination, gold-plated contacts, and push-pull fastening. The part is currently active in production with 873 units in stock. Identifying equivalent and substitute parts is necessary when the primary part becomes unavailable, when alternative sourcing is required, or when design flexibility permits component selection from qualified alternatives meeting identical electrical and mechanical specifications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the SDL-134-G-12 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Connector type (Receptacle)
• Position count (68 positions)
• Mating pitch (0.100" / 2.54mm)
• Row configuration (2 rows with 0.100" spacing)
• Mounting method (Through Hole)
• Termination type (Solder)
• Contact finish specification (Gold at 30.0µin mating surface)
• Insulation material (Liquid Crystal Polymer)
• Operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C)
• Compliance certifications (ROHS3, REACH Unaffected)

Parts meeting all these parameters are classified as direct equivalents. Parts with identical specifications but different product status or inventory availability remain functionally interchangeable for design purposes.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The substitute part SDL-134-G-12 from Samtec Inc. is electrically and mechanically equivalent to the main part. Both parts are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current regulatory requirements. The primary distinction is product status: the main part is active in production, while the substitute is discontinued at DiGi Electronics. Both parts maintain identical compliance certifications and operational specifications. Selection between these parts should be based on availability and supply chain requirements rather than technical performance, as all critical parameters are equivalent.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the substitute SDL-134-G-12 be used interchangeably with the main part? A: Yes. Both parts are identical in all electrical and mechanical specifications, including connector type, position count, pitch, mounting method, termination type, contact finish, insulation material, and operating temperature range. They are direct functional equivalents.

Q: What is the difference between the main part and the substitute? A: The main part is currently active in production with 873 units in stock. The substitute is discontinued at DiGi Electronics but has 697 units available. All technical specifications are identical.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant? A: Yes. Both the main part and substitute are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current environmental and regulatory standards.

Q: Does the substitute part have the same contact finish specifications? A: Yes. Both parts feature gold-plated contacts with 30.0µin (0.76µm) thickness on the mating surface and 10.0µin (0.25µm) on the post, ensuring equivalent electrical performance and reliability.

Q: What is the operating temperature range for both parts? A: Both parts operate across the identical temperature range of -55°C to 125°C, suitable for industrial and commercial applications.

Q: Are there any packaging differences between the main part and substitute? A: The main part is packaged in tubes. The substitute packaging specification is not provided in the available data. Verify packaging requirements with your procurement process if specific packaging is required.
