SS-132-G-1C Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The SS-132-G-1C is a 32-position receptacle connector manufactured by Samtec Inc., designed for board-to-board applications with 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch through-hole mounting. This connector features gold-plated contacts on both mating and post surfaces, with beryllium copper contact material and polybutylene terephthalate (PBT) glass-filled insulation. The part maintains Active product status with full inventory availability. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters align with the original specification, enabling component interchangeability for procurement flexibility and supply chain continuity.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the SS-132-G-1C is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type: Receptacle
• Contact Type: Female Socket
• Number of Positions: 32
• Pitch - Mating: 0.100" (2.54mm)
• Number of Rows: 1
• Mounting Type: Through Hole
• Termination: Solder
• Contact Finish - Mating: Gold
• Insulation Material: Polybutylene Terephthalate (PBT), Glass Filled
• Contact Material: Beryllium Copper
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C ~ 125°C
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant

The SS-132-G-2 qualifies as a substitute part because it maintains identical values across all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. Variations in non-critical parameters such as Contact Length - Post do not affect functional interchangeability in board-to-board connector applications where the receptacle accepts a mating plug connector.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the SS-132-G-1C and SS-132-G-2 maintain Active product status with full ROHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity classification. Selection between these parts should be based on application-specific requirements regarding post length. The SS-132-G-1C provides extended post length at 0.260" (6.60mm), suitable for applications requiring deeper solder joint penetration or specific PCB stack-up configurations. The SS-132-G-2 offers reduced post length at 0.125" (3.18mm), appropriate for space-constrained designs or standard PCB thickness applications. Both parts share identical electrical characteristics, contact materials, and thermal operating ranges, ensuring functional equivalence in board-to-board connector applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can SS-132-G-2 be used as a direct replacement for SS-132-G-1C?

A: Yes, SS-132-G-2 qualifies as a functional substitute for SS-132-G-1C. Both parts maintain identical connector type, contact configuration, pitch, mounting method, and material specifications. The primary difference is post length, which does not affect electrical interchangeability in standard board-to-board applications.

Q: What is the significance of the different post lengths between these parts?

A: Post length affects solder joint geometry and PCB penetration depth. The SS-132-G-1C with 0.260" (6.60mm) post length accommodates thicker PCB assemblies or applications requiring extended solder fillets. The SS-132-G-2 with 0.125" (3.18mm) post length suits standard PCB thicknesses and space-limited designs. Selection depends on your specific PCB stack-up and assembly requirements.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes, both SS-132-G-1C and SS-132-G-2 are ROHS3 compliant, meeting current environmental and regulatory standards for electronic component manufacturing.

Q: What is the operating temperature range for these connectors?

A: Both parts operate across the temperature range of -55°C to 125°C, providing thermal stability for industrial and commercial applications.

Q: Do these parts require special handling or storage conditions?

A: Both parts carry Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) 1 classification, indicating unlimited shelf life without special moisture control requirements during storage or handling.

Q: What contact material is used in these connectors?

A: Both parts utilize beryllium copper contacts with gold plating on mating surfaces (30.0µin thickness) and post surfaces (10.0µin thickness), ensuring reliable electrical contact and corrosion resistance.
