Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three parts—SSM-102-L-DV-TR, SSM-102-L-DV-K-TR, and SSM-102-L-DV-P-TR—are Active products from Samtec Inc. and maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection between these parts is based on:

• Product Status: All parts are Active and suitable for new designs
• Compliance: All parts are ROHS3 Compliant with MSL 1 (Unlimited)
• Certifications: All parts carry equivalent regulatory classifications (ECCN: EAR99, HTSUS: 8536.69.4040)
• Inventory Availability: SSM-102-L-DV-K-TR offers the highest stock level at 2191 units, followed by SSM-102-L-DV-P-TR at 998 units, and SSM-102-L-DV-TR at 706 units

The SSM-102-L-DV-K-TR and SSM-102-L-DV-P-TR variants include Pick and Place features, which may provide manufacturing process advantages in automated assembly environments. All three parts are electrically and mechanically interchangeable for applications requiring 4-position, 0.100" pitch, surface mount receptacle connectors with gold-plated contacts and push-pull fastening.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are SSM-102-L-DV-TR, SSM-102-L-DV-K-TR, and SSM-102-L-DV-P-TR electrically interchangeable?

A: Yes. All three parts maintain identical electrical specifications including 5.2A per contact current rating, 405VAC/572VDC voltage rating, and -55°C to 125°C operating temperature range. They are electrically interchangeable in all applications.

Q: Are these parts mechanically interchangeable?

A: Yes. All three parts share identical mechanical specifications: 4 positions, 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch, 2-row configuration, surface mount termination, push-pull fastening, and gold-plated contacts with 10.0µin (0.25µm) thickness. They are mechanically interchangeable.

Q: What is the difference between these three part numbers?

A: The primary differences are packaging configuration and feature designation. SSM-102-L-DV-K-TR and SSM-102-L-DV-P-TR include Pick and Place features for automated assembly. All three are supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging. The differences do not affect electrical or mechanical performance.

Q: Are all three parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. All three parts are ROHS3 Compliant with Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions during storage or handling.

Q: Which part should I select for a new design?

A: Selection depends on supply chain and manufacturing requirements. All three parts are Active products suitable for new designs. If automated pick-and-place assembly is required, SSM-102-L-DV-K-TR or SSM-102-L-DV-P-TR are appropriate. If inventory availability is a primary concern, SSM-102-L-DV-K-TR offers the highest stock level.

Q: Can I use these connectors in high-temperature applications?

A: Yes. All three parts are rated for operating temperatures from -55°C to 125°C, making them suitable for industrial and automotive applications within this temperature range.

Q: What is the contact material composition?

A: All three parts use Phosphor Bronze contacts with gold plating (10.0µin/0.25µm thickness) on the mating surface and tin plating on the post surface, providing reliable electrical contact and corrosion resistance.
