Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the SSW-120-22-F-S-RA is determined by equivalence across the following critical parameters:

  • Connector type (Receptacle)
  • Number of positions (20)
  • Mating pitch (0.100" / 2.54mm)
  • Mounting configuration (Through Hole, Right Angle)
  • Contact finish specification (Gold mating surface)
  • Current rating per contact (4.7A)
  • Operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C)
  • Insulation material (Liquid Crystal Polymer)
  • Compliance certifications (RoHS3, UL94 V-0)

The SSW-120-02-F-S-RA meets all these criteria and is classified as a direct substitute.
