Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can SS-103-G-2 be used as a direct replacement for SS-103-G-22-N?

A: Yes. Both parts are functionally equivalent across all critical parameters including connector type, contact configuration, pitch, mounting method, contact materials, and operating temperature range.

Q: Are there any differences in gold plating specifications between these parts?

A: No. Both parts specify identical contact finish thickness of 30.0µin (0.76µm) on mating surfaces.

Q: Do both parts require the same PCB footprint?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical pitch (0.100"), mounting type (through hole), and insulation height (0.100"), ensuring compatible PCB layouts.

Q: What is the significance of the MSL 1 rating for both parts?

A: MSL 1 (Unlimited) indicates these connectors have no moisture sensitivity restrictions and do not require special dry-pack storage or baking procedures prior to assembly.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both SS-103-G-22-N and SS-103-G-2 are ROHS3 compliant.
