Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the SSM-115-S-DV-M-TR is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Connector type: Receptacle, pass-through configuration
Position count: 30 positions
Pitch specification: 0.100" (2.54mm) mating pitch with 0.100" row spacing
Mounting method: Surface mount with solder termination
Contact system: Female socket with gold mating finish at 30.0µin thickness
Electrical ratings: 5.2A per contact, 405VAC/572VDC
Temperature range: -55°C to 125°C
Insulation material: Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP)
Series compatibility: Tiger Claw™ SSM series
Packaging format: Tape & Reel

The substitute part SSM-115-S-DV-K-TR matches all these parameters identically, differing only in the fastening type designation within the part number suffix. Both parts are manufactured by Samtec Inc., share the same base product number (SSM-115), and maintain full electrical and mechanical interchangeability.
