SSM-103-F-DV-TR Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The SSM-103-F-DV-TR is a 6-position receptacle connector from Samtec Inc.'s Tiger Claw™ SSM series, designed for surface mount applications with 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch spacing. This pass-through connector features gold-plated mating contacts and is rated for 5.2A per contact at 405VAC/572VDC. The part is Active status and ROHS3 compliant, making it suitable for industrial and commercial applications requiring reliable board-to-board or cable interconnection.

Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical performance, mechanical compatibility, and environmental specifications are maintained across the same product series and manufacturer.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the SSM-103-F-DV-TR is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Manufacturer: Samtec Inc. (same manufacturer required)
• Series: Tiger Claw™ SSM (same connector series)
• Number of Positions: 6 (exact match)
• Pitch - Mating: 0.100" (2.54mm) (exact match)
• Number of Rows: 2 (exact match)
• Connector Type: Receptacle, Pass Through (exact match)
• Contact Type: Female Socket (exact match)
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount (exact match)
• Current Rating: 5.2A per Contact (exact match)
• Voltage Rating: 405VAC, 572VDC (exact match)
• Operating Temperature: -55°C ~ 125°C (exact match)
• Contact Finish - Mating: Gold (exact match)
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant (exact match)

Variations in packaging configuration (Tape & Reel options) and minor feature additions (such as Pick and Place compatibility) do not affect electrical or mechanical substitutability.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both SSM-103-F-DV-TR and SSM-103-F-DV-K-TR are Active status products from Samtec Inc. and maintain full ROHS3 compliance. The parts are electrically and mechanically equivalent across all specified parameters, including current and voltage ratings, operating temperature range, and contact materials.

The SSM-103-F-DV-K-TR variant includes Pick and Place feature compatibility, which may provide advantages in automated assembly environments. Both parts are available in Tape & Reel packaging suitable for high-volume production.

Selection between these parts should be based on assembly process requirements and inventory availability rather than electrical or mechanical performance differences.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are SSM-103-F-DV-TR and SSM-103-F-DV-K-TR electrically interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both 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.

Q: What is the difference between the TR and K-TR packaging designations?

A: Both parts use Tape & Reel (TR) packaging. The K designation in SSM-103-F-DV-K-TR indicates Pick and Place feature compatibility, which does not affect electrical or mechanical substitutability.

Q: Can these connectors be used in applications requiring -55°C to 125°C operation?

A: Yes. Both parts are rated for the full -55°C to 125°C operating temperature range.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both SSM-103-F-DV-TR and SSM-103-F-DV-K-TR are ROHS3 compliant.

Q: What is the contact pitch for these connectors?

A: Both parts feature 0.100" (2.54mm) mating pitch with 2 rows and 6 total positions.

Q: What materials are used for the contacts?

A: Both parts use Phosphor Bronze contacts with gold plating (3.00µin/0.076µm thickness) on the mating surface and tin plating on the post surface.
