Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the SSW-107-21-G-S is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type & Position Count: Receptacle configuration with 7 positions
• Pitch & Mounting: 0.100" (2.54mm) mating pitch with through-hole PCB mounting
• Contact Specifications: Forked contact type with gold plating on mating surfaces
• Electrical Performance: 4.7A per contact current rating
• Thermal Range: -55°C to 125°C operating temperature
• Material & Compliance: Liquid Crystal Polymer insulation, UL94 V-0 flammability rating, ROHS3 compliance

The substitute part SSW-107-01-G-S meets all these criteria, maintaining identical electrical and mechanical compatibility within the SSW series.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both SSW-107-21-G-S and SSW-107-01-G-S are active production parts from Samtec Inc. with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection between these parts should be based on:

• Inventory Availability: SSW-107-01-G-S offers higher stock levels (1118 units vs. 709 units)
• Compliance Status: Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and UL94 V-0 flammability certification
• Application Compatibility: Interchangeable for all board-to-board and cable connector applications requiring 7-position, 0.100" pitch receptacle configurations with 4.7A per contact current handling

No performance degradation or functional compromise occurs when substituting between these parts.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are SSW-107-21-G-S and SSW-107-01-G-S mechanically interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical mating pitch (0.100"), mounting type (through-hole), insulation height (0.335"), and contact geometry. They are direct mechanical substitutes.

Q: Do these parts have the same electrical performance?

A: Yes. Both parts are rated for 4.7A per contact and operate across -55°C to 125°C. Contact finish specifications (20.0µin gold plating on mating surfaces) are identical.

Q: What is the difference between SSW-107-21-G-S and SSW-107-01-G-S?

A: The parts are functionally equivalent. The difference in part number suffix (-21 vs. -01) reflects internal Samtec manufacturing or packaging designations. All critical electrical and mechanical parameters are identical.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both SSW-107-21-G-S and SSW-107-01-G-S are ROHS3 compliant and carry UL94 V-0 flammability certification.

Q: Can I use SSW-107-01-G-S as a direct replacement in existing designs?

A: Yes. No PCB layout modifications, firmware changes, or design alterations are required. The substitute part maintains full compatibility with existing connector mating interfaces and solder footprints.
