Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the SSQ-108-01-G-S-008 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Connector type (Receptacle)
• Number of positions (8)
• Pitch specification (0.100" / 2.54mm)
• Mounting method (Through Hole)
• Termination type (Solder)
• Contact finish (Gold)
• Voltage and temperature ratings (465VAC, 655VDC; -55°C ~ 125°C)
• Compliance certifications (UL94 V-0, ROHS3)

The identified substitute part SSQ-108-01-G-S-001 maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters, differing only in packaging configuration (Bulk versus standard packaging). This packaging difference does not affect functional compatibility or performance characteristics.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both SSQ-108-01-G-S-008 and SSQ-108-01-G-S-001 are active production parts with full ROHS3 compliance and UL94 V-0 flammability certification. Selection between these parts should be based on packaging requirements and inventory availability. The SSQ-108-01-G-S-001 offers higher current inventory (1077 units) in bulk packaging, while the SSQ-108-01-G-S-008 maintains standard packaging with 927 units available. Both parts satisfy identical electrical performance, thermal operating range, and mechanical interface specifications for 8-position 0.100" pitch through-hole receptacle applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can SSQ-108-01-G-S-001 be used as a direct replacement for SSQ-108-01-G-S-008?

A: Yes. Both parts are functionally equivalent across all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. The only difference is packaging configuration (Bulk versus standard). Direct substitution is valid for applications where packaging format does not impose constraints.

Q: What is the significance of the packaging difference between these two parts?

A: Packaging affects order quantity minimums, storage requirements, and handling procedures, but does not impact connector performance, pin configuration, electrical ratings, or mechanical compatibility.

Q: Are both parts suitable for the same operating temperature and voltage ranges?

A: Yes. Both parts operate across -55°C to 125°C and are rated for 465VAC and 655VDC, making them interchangeable for equivalent thermal and electrical environments.

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both SSQ-108-01-G-S-008 and SSQ-108-01-G-S-001 are ROHS3 compliant and carry UL94 V-0 flammability certification.

Q: What determines whether a part can substitute for the SSQ-108-01-G-S-008?

A: Substitution requires matching connector type, position count, pitch specification, mounting method, termination type, contact finish, voltage/temperature ratings, and compliance certifications. Packaging and inventory levels do not affect substitution eligibility.
