Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the SMM-120-02-F-D-TR is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Connector type (Receptacle)
• Number of positions (40)
• Pitch and row spacing (0.079" / 2.00mm)
• Mounting type (Surface Mount)
• Termination method (Solder)
• Contact finish material (Gold)
• Current and voltage ratings (3.2A per contact, 350VAC)
• Operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C)
• Compliance certifications (RoHS3, UL94 V-0)

The SMM-120-02-F-D-K-TR qualifies as a direct substitute based on identical values across all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. Both parts belong to the Tiger Eye™ SMM series and share the same base product number (SMM-120), confirming mechanical and electrical interchangeability.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the SMM-120-02-F-D-TR and SMM-120-02-F-D-K-TR maintain active product status with identical compliance certifications (RoHS3 Compliant, UL94 V-0). Selection between these parts should be based on packaging and assembly process requirements. The SMM-120-02-F-D-K-TR includes pick-and-place features, which may provide advantages for automated assembly workflows. Both parts are supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging and carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity ratings, indicating no special storage or handling requirements. Inventory availability should also be considered, as the SMM-120-02-F-D-K-TR currently has higher stock levels (1281 pcs vs. 805 pcs).
