Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The 75915-305LF from Amphenol ICC (FCI) qualifies as a substitute based on the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type & Position Count: Both are 5-position receptacles
• Pitch Specification: Both maintain 0.100" (2.54mm) mating pitch
• Mounting & Termination: Both use through-hole solder termination
• Fastening Mechanism: Both employ push-pull fastening
• Contact Finish - Mating: Both specify gold plating at 30.0µin (0.76µm) thickness
• Insulation Height: Both maintain 0.335" (8.51mm) height
• Flammability Rating: Both meet UL94 V-0 standard
• Contact Material: Both use phosphor bronze
• Moisture Sensitivity: Both rated MSL 1 (Unlimited)

The 75915-305LF represents an active product with current manufacturing support, addressing the discontinued status of the original SSW-105-02-S-S.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 75915-305LF is the qualified substitute for the discontinued SSW-105-02-S-S. Selection is based on:

• Compliance Alignment: Both parts meet UL94 V-0 flammability requirements and RoHS standards
• Electrical & Mechanical Equivalence: Identical pitch, position count, contact finish specifications, and operating temperature range
• Product Availability: The 75915-305LF maintains active manufacturing status with current inventory support, eliminating supply chain risk associated with the discontinued SSW-105-02-S-S
• Certification Continuity: Both parts carry MSL 1 rating and equivalent contact material specifications

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 75915-305LF directly replace the SSW-105-02-S-S in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical mating pitch (0.100"), position count (5), contact finish specifications (gold at 30.0µin), insulation height (0.335"), and fastening mechanism (push-pull). Through-hole solder termination and phosphor bronze contact material are equivalent across both parts.

Q: What is the difference in contact geometry between these parts?

A: The SSW-105-02-S-S uses forked contacts, while the 75915-305LF uses female socket contacts. Both contact types are compatible with standard 0.100" pitch pin headers and mating connectors.

Q: Are there packaging differences between the original and substitute?

A: The SSW-105-02-S-S packaging is not specified in available data. The 75915-305LF is supplied in tube packaging. Verify packaging requirements for your procurement and assembly processes.

Q: Do both parts meet the same temperature operating range?

A: The SSW-105-02-S-S specifies -55°C to 125°C operating temperature. The 75915-305LF operating temperature is not specified in available data. Both parts carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating.

Q: What compliance certifications apply to the 75915-305LF?

A: The 75915-305LF is RoHS Compliant and REACH Affected. It meets UL94 V-0 flammability requirements and carries EAR99 export classification.
