Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The 929850-01-06-RB (3M) qualifies as a substitute based on the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type & Position Count: Both are 6-position receptacles with identical mating pitch of 0.100" (2.54mm)
• Mounting & Termination: Both use through-hole solder termination with push-pull fastening
• Contact Configuration: Both feature forked contacts with gold mating finish at 30.0µin (0.76µm) thickness and tin-plated posts
• Insulation Material & Flammability: Both meet UL94 V-0 flammability rating
• Compliance: Both are RoHS compliant (ROHS3 and RoHS respectively)
• Regulatory Classification: Both share identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS codes

Substitution is valid where the mechanical envelope and electrical performance requirements align with the specified parameters.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both connectors are active production parts with full RoHS compliance and identical regulatory classifications. The SSW-106-06-S-S supports a higher current rating (4.7A per contact versus 2A) and extended operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C versus -40°C to 105°C). The 929850-01-06-RB provides a specified voltage rating of 1500V. Selection between these parts should be based on application-specific requirements for current capacity, temperature extremes, and voltage specifications. Both parts meet UL94 V-0 flammability requirements and are suitable for equivalent mechanical and electrical substitution within their respective performance envelopes.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 929850-01-06-RB replace the SSW-106-06-S-S in all applications?

A: Substitution is valid for applications where the 929850-01-06-RB current rating (2A per contact) and operating temperature range (-40°C to 105°C) meet design requirements. Applications requiring the higher current capacity (4.7A) or extended temperature range (-55°C) of the SSW-106-06-S-S require verification of the substitute's suitability.

Q: Are the physical dimensions compatible?

A: Both connectors use 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch through-hole mounting with identical contact configurations. Minor differences exist in insulation height (SSW-106-06-S-S: 0.335", 929850-01-06-RB: 0.325") and contact post length (SSW-106-06-S-S: 0.124", 929850-01-06-RB: 0.125"). PCB layout compatibility should be verified for specific applications.

Q: What are the key electrical differences?

A: The SSW-106-06-S-S provides 4.7A per contact current capacity without a specified voltage rating. The 929850-01-06-RB provides 2A per contact with a 1500V voltage rating. Application requirements for current and voltage must be matched to the appropriate part.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The SSW-106-06-S-S is ROHS3 compliant, and the 929850-01-06-RB is RoHS compliant. Both meet regulatory requirements for restricted substance elimination.

Q: What is the temperature operating range difference?

A: The SSW-106-06-S-S operates from -55°C to 125°C, while the 929850-01-06-RB operates from -40°C to 105°C. Applications requiring operation below -40°C or above 105°C require the SSW-106-06-S-S.
