Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The SFM-107-01-L-D-A qualifies as a direct substitute for the SFM-107-L1-L-D-A based on identical electrical and mechanical parameters. Substitution is valid when the following criteria are met:

• Connector type: Receptacle
• Position count: 14 positions
• Mating pitch: 0.050" (1.27mm)
• Row configuration: 2 rows at 0.050" (1.27mm) spacing
• Mounting method: Through hole with solder termination
• Contact finish: Gold plating on mating surface
• Current and voltage ratings: 3.2A per contact, 250VAC
• Operating temperature range: -55°C ~ 125°C
• Flammability compliance: UL94 V-0
• RoHS compliance: ROHS3 compliant

Both parts belong to the Tiger Eye™ SFM series and share the same base product number (SFM-107), confirming mechanical and electrical compatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the SFM-107-L1-L-D-A and SFM-107-01-L-D-A are Active status products from Samtec Inc. and maintain full ROHS3 compliance. Selection between these parts should be based on inventory availability and procurement lead times, as they are electrically and mechanically identical.

The SFM-107-01-L-D-A currently has higher inventory availability (822 pcs vs. 735 pcs), which may provide supply chain advantages for high-volume applications. Both parts meet the same regulatory requirements (UL94 V-0, EAR99, HTSUS 8536.69.4040) and are suitable for identical circuit applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can SFM-107-01-L-D-A be used as a direct replacement for SFM-107-L1-L-D-A?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical electrical specifications (3.2A per contact, 250VAC), mechanical dimensions (14 positions, 0.050" pitch, 2-row configuration), contact materials (beryllium copper with gold mating finish), and operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C). They are mechanically and electrically interchangeable.

Q: Are there any differences in PCB footprint between these two parts?

A: No. Both parts feature identical through-hole mounting specifications, insulation height (0.180"), contact length (0.120"), and row spacing (0.050"). PCB layouts designed for one part will accommodate the other without modification.

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both SFM-107-L1-L-D-A and SFM-107-01-L-D-A are ROHS3 compliant, carry UL94 V-0 flammability ratings, and share the same ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS classifications.

Q: What is the difference between the part numbers?

A: The part numbers differ only in the second segment (L1 vs. 01). Both are variants within the Tiger Eye™ SFM series with the same base product number (SFM-107). The variation reflects internal Samtec product line organization but does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility.

Q: Which part should be selected for new designs?

A: Either part is suitable for new designs. Selection should be based on current inventory levels and supplier availability. Both parts are Active status and equally supported by the manufacturer.
