Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the SSW-103-22-S-D is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Connector type (Receptacle)
• Number of positions (6)
• Pitch spacing (0.100" / 2.54mm)
• Number of rows (2)
• Row spacing (0.100" / 2.54mm)
• Mounting type (Through Hole)
• Termination method (Solder)
• Contact finish - mating (Gold)
• Current rating (4.7A per Contact)
• Operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C)
• Material flammability rating (UL94 V-0)
• RoHS compliance status (ROHS3 Compliant)

The identified substitute part SSW-103-02-S-D meets all these criteria, confirming functional and mechanical interchangeability within the SSW series.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both SSW-103-22-S-D and SSW-103-02-S-D are active production parts from Samtec Inc. with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection between these parts is based on inventory availability and supply chain requirements rather than technical differentiation. Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and UL94 V-0 flammability certification, meeting regulatory requirements for industrial and commercial applications. The SSW-103-02-S-D carries MSL Level 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating and REACH Unaffected status, providing additional environmental documentation where required.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can SSW-103-02-S-D be used as a direct replacement for SSW-103-22-S-D?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical and mechanical parameters including connector type, position count, pitch spacing, current rating, operating temperature range, and contact finishes. They are functionally interchangeable within the same application.

Q: Are there differences in contact reliability between these parts?

A: No. Both parts feature identical forked contact geometry, gold mating surfaces at 30.0µin thickness, tin post finishes, and phosphor bronze contact material. Contact performance and reliability are equivalent.

Q: What is the significance of the different part numbers within the SSW-103 series?

A: The SSW-103 base product number identifies the connector family. Variations in the full part number (such as -22-S-D versus -02-S-D) reflect manufacturing or packaging designations within the same electrical and mechanical specification set.

Q: Are both parts suitable for high-temperature applications?

A: Yes. Both parts operate across -55°C to 125°C, meeting requirements for industrial temperature ranges. The UL94 V-0 flammability rating applies to both.

Q: What is the current handling capacity per contact?

A: Both parts are rated for 4.7A per contact, supporting applications requiring moderate current distribution across multiple positions.

Q: Do these connectors require special handling for moisture sensitivity?

A: SSW-103-02-S-D carries MSL Level 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions. Standard handling practices apply for both parts.
