Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the SSQ-104-22-F-D-RA is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type & Position Configuration: Receptacle, 8-position, 2-row layout
• Pitch & Spacing: 0.100" (2.54mm) mating pitch and row spacing
• Mounting & Termination: Through-hole, right-angle orientation with solder termination
• Contact System: Forked contact type with gold mating finish and tin post finish
• Electrical & Environmental Ratings: 465VAC/655VDC voltage rating, -55°C to 125°C operating range, UL94 V-0 flammability compliance
• Series Designation: SSQ series base product number SSQ-104

The identified substitute part SSQ-104-02-F-D-RA maintains identical specifications across all critical parameters, differing only in moisture sensitivity level classification and inventory availability.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both SSQ-104-22-F-D-RA and SSQ-104-02-F-D-RA maintain active product status with full ROHS3 compliance and UL94 V-0 flammability certification. Selection between these parts should be based on:

• Inventory Availability: SSQ-104-02-F-D-RA offers higher stock levels (1127 units versus 791 units), supporting expedited procurement timelines.
• Moisture Sensitivity Classification: SSQ-104-02-F-D-RA carries MSL 1 (Unlimited) rating, indicating no moisture-related storage restrictions, compared to the main part's Not Applicable classification. This distinction does not affect functional compatibility but may influence logistics and storage protocols.
• Electrical & Mechanical Equivalence: Both parts are electrically and mechanically interchangeable for applications requiring 8-position, 0.100" pitch receptacle connectors with gold mating contacts and tin posts within the specified voltage and temperature ranges.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are SSQ-104-22-F-D-RA and SSQ-104-02-F-D-RA mechanically interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical pitch (0.100"), position count (8), row configuration (2 rows), mounting type (through-hole right-angle), and contact geometry. They are mechanically interchangeable in board-to-board and cable applications.

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

A: The primary differences are moisture sensitivity level classification (Not Applicable versus MSL 1) and current inventory quantities. All electrical, mechanical, and environmental specifications are identical.

Q: Can I substitute SSQ-104-02-F-D-RA for SSQ-104-22-F-D-RA in my design?

A: Yes, for applications where the main part is specified. Both parts meet identical voltage (465VAC/655VDC), temperature (-55°C to 125°C), and flammability (UL94 V-0) requirements. Verify connector mating compatibility with your plug or cable assembly.

Q: What does MSL 1 (Unlimited) mean for SSQ-104-02-F-D-RA?

A: MSL 1 indicates the component has unlimited shelf life without moisture absorption concerns. This classification does not affect electrical or mechanical performance but simplifies storage and handling procedures compared to higher MSL ratings.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both SSQ-104-22-F-D-RA and SSQ-104-02-F-D-RA are ROHS3 compliant, meeting current environmental and hazardous substance restrictions.
