Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the SSW-115-21-L-D is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Connector type (Receptacle)
• Number of positions (30)
• Pitch spacing (0.100" / 2.54mm)
• Number of rows (2)
• Row spacing (0.100" / 2.54mm)
• Mounting method (Through Hole)
• Termination type (Solder)
• Contact finish on mating surface (Gold)
• Current rating per contact (4.7A)
• Operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C)
• Flammability rating (UL94 V-0)
• RoHS compliance status (ROHS3 Compliant)

The SSW-115-01-L-D meets all these criteria and is classified as a direct equivalent within the SSW series.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the SSW-115-21-L-D and SSW-115-01-L-D are active production parts manufactured by Samtec Inc. with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and UL94 V-0 flammability certification, meeting regulatory requirements for industrial and commercial applications.

Selection between these parts should be based on inventory availability and lead time requirements. The SSW-115-01-L-D currently has higher stock availability (1160 units versus 970 units), which may provide supply chain advantages. Both parts are functionally interchangeable for applications requiring 30-position, 0.100" pitch receptacle connectors with through-hole solder termination and gold-plated contacts.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are SSW-115-21-L-D and SSW-115-01-L-D fully interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both parts are identical in electrical performance, mechanical dimensions, contact configuration, and termination method. They are direct equivalents within the SSW series.

Q: What determines substitution eligibility for this connector?

A: Substitution requires matching across all critical parameters: 30-position count, 0.100" pitch spacing, 2-row configuration, through-hole mounting, solder termination, gold mating contact finish, 4.7A current rating per contact, -55°C to 125°C operating range, UL94 V-0 flammability rating, and ROHS3 compliance.

Q: Can I use these connectors in high-temperature applications?

A: Both parts are rated for -55°C to 125°C operating temperature. Applications requiring operation outside this range require alternative connector selection.

Q: What is the difference between the part numbers SSW-115-21-L-D and SSW-115-01-L-D?

A: The part numbers differ in the variant designation (21 versus 01), but all specified electrical and mechanical parameters are identical. The difference reflects internal Samtec product line organization and does not affect functional performance or compatibility.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both SSW-115-21-L-D and SSW-115-01-L-D are ROHS3 compliant and suitable for applications with RoHS requirements.
