Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution within the SSW-108 series is determined by the following critical parameters that must remain constant:

• Number of positions: 16
• Pitch spacing: 0.100" (2.54mm)
• Connector type: Receptacle
• Contact type: Forked
• Mounting type: Through hole
• Termination method: Solder
• Fastening type: Push-pull
• Contact finish - mating: Gold
• Operating temperature range: -55°C ~ 125°C
• Insulation material: Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP)
• Material flammability rating: UL94 V-0
• Current rating: 4.7A per contact
• Base product number: SSW-108

The identified substitute parts (SSW-108-01-F-D, SSW-108-21-F-D, and SSW-108-01-FM-D) maintain all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. Variations exist only in packaging configuration and moisture sensitivity level designation, which do not affect functional compatibility in standard applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All four part numbers are active products manufactured by Samtec Inc. and maintain full ROHS3 compliance. Selection between SSW-108-01-F-D-N and its substitutes is based on inventory availability and moisture sensitivity level requirements.

SSW-108-01-F-D offers the highest current inventory (2146 units) and designates MSL 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity constraints during storage and handling. This part is suitable for applications without moisture-sensitive component restrictions.

SSW-108-01-F-D-N, SSW-108-21-F-D, and SSW-108-01-FM-D are designated as Not Applicable for MSL, indicating standard handling procedures apply. These parts maintain equivalent electrical and mechanical performance with inventory levels of 927, 904, and 922 units respectively.

All substitute parts maintain identical contact ratings, operating temperature ranges, and flammability certifications, ensuring direct functional interchangeability in circuit designs.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can SSW-108-01-F-D be used as a direct replacement for SSW-108-01-F-D-N?

A: Yes. Both parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications including 16 positions, 0.100" pitch, gold-plated contacts, 4.7A per contact rating, and -55°C to 125°C operating temperature. The primary difference is moisture sensitivity level designation; SSW-108-01-F-D specifies MSL 1 (Unlimited) while SSW-108-01-F-D-N is Not Applicable.

Q: What is the difference between SSW-108-01-F-D and SSW-108-21-F-D?

A: Both parts are functionally equivalent with identical electrical and mechanical parameters. The designation difference (01 versus 21) reflects packaging or configuration variants within the SSW-108 series, but all critical specifications remain constant.

Q: Are all substitute parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. SSW-108-01-F-D-N, SSW-108-01-F-D, SSW-108-21-F-D, and SSW-108-01-FM-D are all ROHS3 compliant and carry UL94 V-0 flammability ratings.

Q: Can these connectors be used in high-temperature applications?

A: Yes. All parts in this group are rated for operating temperatures from -55°C to 125°C, supporting standard industrial and commercial temperature ranges.

Q: What is the current capacity per contact?

A: Each contact is rated for 4.7A, providing consistent current handling across all substitute parts.

Q: Are there any compatibility issues when substituting between these part numbers?

A: No. All substitute parts maintain identical pin configurations, pitch spacing, mounting type, and termination method. PCB footprints and mating connector designs are fully compatible across all four part numbers.
