Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of rectangular connectors in the Tiger Eye™ SFM series is determined by strict equivalence across electrical and mechanical parameters. The SFM-105-T2-L-D-LC can be substituted with SFM-105-02-L-D-LC based on the following criteria:

Critical Matching Parameters:

  • Connector type (Receptacle) and contact type (Female Socket)
  • Number of positions (10) and row configuration (2 rows)
  • Mating pitch (0.050" / 1.27mm) and row spacing (0.050" / 1.27mm)
  • Mounting type (Surface Mount) and termination method (Solder)
  • Fastening mechanism (Push-Pull) with board lock feature
  • Contact finish specification (Gold mating surface)
  • Electrical ratings (3.2A per contact, 250VAC)
  • Operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C)
  • Compliance certifications (UL94 V-0, ROHS3)

Both parts belong to the same base product family (SFM-105) and maintain identical functional and physical characteristics across all specified parameters.
