Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The substitute part SSW-108-22-F-S-VS-K-TR is classified as an equivalent based on the following critical parameters that determine functional interchangeability:

• Connector Type & Position Count: Both parts are 8-position receptacles within the SSW series
• Pitch Specification: Identical 0.100" (2.54mm) mating pitch ensures mechanical compatibility
• Mounting Technology: Both utilize surface mount termination with solder attachment
• Electrical Ratings: Matching 4.7A per contact current rating and operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C)
• Contact Material & Finish: Identical gold-plated mating contacts with phosphor bronze base material
• Compliance Standards: Both meet UL94 V-0 flammability rating and ROHS3 compliance requirements
• Moisture Sensitivity: Both rated MSL 1 (Unlimited)

The primary distinction between these parts is the fastening mechanism designation in the part number suffix, with the substitute featuring pick-and-place optimization for automated assembly processes.
