Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the SSW-112-02-SM-S-RA is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

  • Connector Type & Position Count: Receptacle configuration with 12 positions
  • Pitch & Mating Specifications: 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch maintained
  • Mounting Configuration: Through-hole, right-angle orientation
  • Contact Specifications: Forked contact type with gold mating finish (30.0µin thickness) and tin post finish
  • Electrical Performance: 4.7A per contact current rating
  • Environmental Compliance: UL94 V-0 flammability rating, ROHS3 compliance, operating temperature range -55°C ~ 125°C
  • Insulation Material: Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP)

The identified substitute part SSW-112-02-S-S-RA meets all these criteria and is therefore electrically and mechanically interchangeable.
