Substitute Part Grouping Explanation
Substitution eligibility for the SSW-104-23-G-D-RA is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:
- Connector type (Receptacle)
- Number of positions (8)
- Pitch spacing (0.100" / 2.54mm)
- Number of rows (2)
- Row spacing (0.100" / 2.54mm)
- Mounting configuration (Through Hole, Right Angle)
- Contact type (Forked)
- Contact finish (Gold)
- Current rating (4.7A per contact)
- Operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C)
- Flammability rating (UL94 V-0)
- RoHS compliance (ROHS3)
The SSW-104-03-G-D-RA meets all these criteria and is classified as a direct equivalent substitute.

Engineering Selection Recommendations
Both the SSW-104-23-G-D-RA and SSW-104-03-G-D-RA maintain active product status with ROHS3 compliance and UL94 V-0 flammability certification. Selection between these parts should be based on inventory availability and supply chain requirements, as they are electrically and mechanically equivalent. The SSW-104-03-G-D-RA currently has 891 pieces in stock compared to 838 pieces for the SSW-104-23-G-D-RA, providing an alternative source for continuous production needs.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Are SSW-104-23-G-D-RA and SSW-104-03-G-D-RA interchangeable?
A: Yes. Both connectors are direct equivalents sharing identical electrical and mechanical specifications, including 8-position configuration, 0.100" pitch spacing, gold-plated forked contacts, 4.7A current rating, and -55°C to 125°C operating temperature range.
Q: What determines substitution eligibility for this connector series?
A: Substitution requires matching connector type (receptacle), position count (8), pitch spacing (0.100"), row configuration (2 rows at 0.100" spacing), mounting style (through-hole right-angle), contact type (forked), contact finish (gold), current rating (4.7A), temperature range (-55°C to 125°C), flammability rating (UL94 V-0), and RoHS compliance status (ROHS3).
Q: Can I use these connectors in applications requiring different pitch spacing?
A: No. Both parts are specified for 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch spacing. Applications requiring different pitch spacing require alternative connector models.
Q: Are there any differences in contact finish thickness between these parts?
A: No. Both parts have identical contact finish specifications: 20.0µin (0.51µm) on mating surfaces and 3.00µin (0.076µm) on posts.
Q: What is the base product number for this connector series?
A: The base product number is SSW-104, which encompasses multiple variants within the Samtec SSW series of 8-position rectangular connectors.
