Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the SSM-106-L-DV-BE-M-TR is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Number of Positions: 12
• Pitch - Mating: 0.100" (2.54mm)
• Number of Rows: 2
• Row Spacing - Mating: 0.100" (2.54mm)
• Connector Type: Receptacle, Bottom Entry
• Contact Type: Female Socket
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount
• Current Rating: 5.2A per Contact
• Voltage Rating: 405VAC, 572VDC
• Operating Temperature: -55°C ~ 125°C
• Contact Finish - Mating: Gold
• Insulation Material: Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP)
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)
• Packaging: Tape & Reel (TR)

The identified substitute differs only in the termination style designation (P vs. M suffix), which reflects a variation within the same base product family (SSM-106) while maintaining all electrical and mechanical compatibility requirements.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the SSM-106-L-DV-BE-M-TR and SSM-106-L-DV-BE-P-TR are Active status products from Samtec Inc. and maintain full ROHS3 compliance with MSL 1 rating. The parts are electrically and mechanically equivalent across all specified parameters. Selection between these parts should be based on inventory availability and application-specific termination requirements. The SSM-106-L-DV-BE-P-TR currently has higher inventory availability at 1469 pieces compared to 746 pieces for the SSM-106-L-DV-BE-M-TR.
