• Pitch - mating: 0.100" (2.54mm)
• Number of rows: 2
• Row spacing - mating: 0.100" (2.54mm)
• Mounting type: Through hole
• Termination: Solder
• Fastening type: Push-pull
• Contact finish - mating: Gold
• Contact finish thickness - mating: 30.0µin (0.76µm)
• Insulation color: Black
• Material flammability rating: UL94 V-0
• Contact material: Phosphor bronze
• Product status: Active
• RoHS compliance: Compliant

These parameters define the core mechanical and electrical interface requirements for board-to-board or cable connectivity in this connector category. Alignment across these dimensions establishes functional equivalence for PCB layout and mating interface compatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the SSW-132-01-S-D and 8-534206-2 are active production parts with full RoHS compliance and UL94 V-0 flammability certification. Selection between these parts should be based on the following provided specifications:

Current Rating Consideration: The SSW-132-01-S-D supports 4.7A per contact, while the 8-534206-2 supports 2A per contact. Applications requiring current levels above 2A per contact necessitate the SSW-132-01-S-D.

Insulation Material Difference: The SSW-132-01-S-D uses Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP) insulation, while the 8-534206-2 uses polyester with glass fill. Both materials meet UL94 V-0 requirements. Material selection depends on application-specific thermal and chemical resistance requirements.

Mechanical Dimensions: The SSW-132-01-S-D has an insulation height of 0.335" (8.51mm) and contact post length of 0.104" (2.64mm). The 8-534206-2 has an insulation height of 0.320" (8.13mm) and contact post length of 0.115" (2.92mm). PCB layout and mating component clearances must accommodate these dimensional variations.

Operating Temperature Range: The SSW-132-01-S-D operates from -55°C to 125°C, while the 8-534206-2 operates from -65°C to 125°C. Applications requiring operation below -55°C require the 8-534206-2.

Inventory and Packaging: The SSW-132-01-S-D is available in bulk packaging with 827 units in stock. The 8-534206-2 is supplied in tube packaging with 1347 units in stock. Packaging format and lead time considerations may influence procurement decisions.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 8-534206-2 directly replace the SSW-132-01-S-D in existing designs?

A: Direct replacement requires verification of three factors: (1) current requirements per contact must not exceed 2A for the 8-534206-2, (2) PCB layout must accommodate the dimensional differences in insulation height (0.335" vs 0.320") and contact post length (0.104" vs 0.115"), and (3) operating temperature range must fall within -65°C to 125°C for the 8-534206-2 or -55°C to 125°C for the SSW-132-01-S-D.

Q: What are the key mechanical interface parameters that determine substitutability?

A: The critical parameters are pitch (0.100"), number of positions (64), row configuration (2 rows), row spacing (0.100"), mounting type (through hole), and fastening mechanism (push-pull). These parameters define the physical mating interface and PCB footprint compatibility.

Q: Are there differences in contact performance between these parts?

A: Both parts use phosphor bronze contacts with gold plating at 30.0µin (0.76µm) thickness on the mating surface. The primary difference is current rating: SSW-132-01-S-D supports 4.7A per contact while 8-534206-2 supports 2A per contact. Post-side tin plating thickness differs, with 8-534206-2 specified at 150.0µin (3.81µm).

Q: How do insulation material differences affect application suitability?

A: The SSW-132-01-S-D uses Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP) insulation, which typically offers superior thermal stability and chemical resistance. The 8-534206-2 uses polyester with glass fill. Both meet UL94 V-0 flammability requirements. Material selection should align with specific thermal cycling, chemical exposure, and mechanical stress requirements of the application.

Q: What packaging considerations apply to these parts?

A: The SSW-132-01-S-D is supplied in bulk packaging, while the 8-534206-2 is supplied in tube packaging. Bulk packaging typically suits high-volume manufacturing, while tube packaging may be preferred for lower-volume applications or when component protection during storage is prioritized.

Q: Are both parts compliant with current regulatory standards?

A: Both parts are RoHS compliant and carry UL94 V-0 flammability certification. The SSW-132-01-S-D is ROHS3 compliant, while the 8-534206-2 is RoHS compliant. Both are REACH unaffected and classified as EAR99 for export control purposes.
