SSW-102-22-G-S-RA Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The SSW-102-22-G-S-RA is a 2-position receptacle connector manufactured by Samtec Inc., designed for board-to-board or cable applications with 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch spacing. This through-hole, right-angle connector features gold-plated forked contacts and solder termination, rated for 4.7A per contact across an operating temperature range of -55°C to 125°C. The component is active in production status and ROHS3 compliant. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters are maintained across the connector series.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the SSW-102-22-G-S-RA is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type & Position Count: Receptacle configuration with 2 positions
• Pitch Specification: 0.100" (2.54mm) mating pitch
• Mounting & Orientation: Through-hole, right-angle mounting
• Contact Characteristics: Forked contact type with gold mating finish
• Electrical Rating: 4.7A per contact capacity
• Temperature Range: -55°C to 125°C operational limits
• Material & Compliance: Liquid Crystal Polymer insulation, UL94 V-0 flammability rating, ROHS3 compliance

The SSW-102-22-G-S-RA belongs to the Samtec SSW series. Substitute parts within this series maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications while potentially differing in secondary characteristics such as contact finish thickness or post configuration.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the SSW-102-22-G-S-RA and SSW-102-02-G-S-RA are active production components from Samtec Inc. with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection between these parts is based on availability and inventory status. The SSW-102-02-G-S-RA currently maintains higher inventory levels (1832 pcs) compared to the SSW-102-22-G-S-RA (836 pcs). Both components meet ROHS3 compliance requirements and carry EAR99 export classification. The identical parameter sets across all critical specifications—connector type, position count, pitch, mounting configuration, contact characteristics, current rating, temperature range, and material certifications—establish direct substitutability within the SSW series.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can SSW-102-02-G-S-RA be used as a direct replacement for SSW-102-22-G-S-RA?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical and mechanical parameters including connector type, position count, pitch spacing, mounting configuration, contact type, current rating, operating temperature range, and material specifications. The parts are interchangeable within the SSW-102 base product family.

Q: What are the critical parameters that determine substitutability?

A: Substitutability is determined by equivalence in: connector type (receptacle), number of positions (2), mating pitch (0.100"), mounting type (through-hole right-angle), contact type (forked), contact finish (gold), current rating (4.7A per contact), operating temperature (-55°C to 125°C), insulation material (LCP), and flammability rating (UL94 V-0).

Q: Are there differences in contact finish specifications between these parts?

A: No. Both parts specify identical contact finish thickness for mating surfaces (20.0µin / 0.51µm) and post surfaces (3.00µin / 0.076µm).

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both SSW-102-22-G-S-RA and SSW-102-02-G-S-RA are ROHS3 compliant, carry EAR99 export classification, and share the same HTSUS code (8536.69.4040).

Q: What is the difference between these part numbers if all specifications are identical?

A: The difference lies in the part number designation within the SSW series. Both parts are functionally equivalent receptacle connectors with 2 positions and 0.100" pitch. The variation in part numbering reflects internal Samtec product line organization but does not affect electrical or mechanical performance.
