Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the SSW-126-02-G-S is determined by strict equivalence across the following parameters:

• Connector type (Receptacle)
• Number of positions (26)
• Pitch spacing (0.100" / 2.54mm)
• Contact finish (Gold)
• Current rating (4.7A per contact)
• Operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C)
• Flammability rating (UL94 V-0)
• Mounting method (Through Hole)
• Termination type (Solder)
• Fastening type (Push-Pull)

The SSW-126-22-G-S meets all these criteria and is classified as a direct substitute within the SSW series.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the SSW-126-02-G-S and SSW-126-22-G-S are active production parts with ROHS3 compliance and identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection between these parts should be based on inventory availability and lead time requirements. The SSW-126-22-G-S currently has higher inventory (1123 units versus 948 units), which may provide supply chain advantages. Both parts carry the same regulatory certifications (ROHS3 Compliant, EAR99 classification) and are suitable for applications requiring UL94 V-0 flammability compliance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can SSW-126-22-G-S be used as a direct replacement for SSW-126-02-G-S?

A: Yes. Both parts are 26-position receptacle connectors with identical pitch spacing (0.100"), contact configuration, current rating (4.7A per contact), operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C), and gold plating specifications. They share the same base product number (SSW-126) and are functionally equivalent.

Q: Are there any mechanical differences between these two parts?

A: No. Both connectors have identical insulation height (0.335"), contact length (0.194"), contact shape (square), and insulation material (LCP). Physical dimensions and mounting characteristics are equivalent.

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both SSW-126-02-G-S and SSW-126-22-G-S are ROHS3 compliant, carry EAR99 classification, and meet UL94 V-0 flammability requirements.

Q: What is the difference between these part numbers?

A: The difference lies in the suffix designation within the SSW-126 series. Both parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical parameters, with the variation reflecting internal Samtec product line organization. The substitution is based on complete parameter equivalence.

Q: Can these connectors be used interchangeably in PCB designs?

A: Yes. Both parts are through-hole mounted receptacle connectors with identical pitch spacing and contact configuration, making them interchangeable in board-to-board and cable applications without design modification.
