Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the SSW-150-02-SM-D is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Connector type (Receptacle)
• Number of positions (100)
• Pitch spacing (0.100" / 2.54mm)
• Number of rows (2)
• Mounting type (Through Hole)
• Termination method (Solder)
• Contact finish - mating (Gold)
• Current rating (4.7A per Contact)
• Operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C)
• Material flammability rating (UL94 V-0)
• Series designation (SSW)

The identified substitute part SSW-150-02-S-D maintains all critical electrical and mechanical parameters, differing only in fastening type designation within the same product series. Both parts are manufactured by Samtec Inc. and share identical contact geometry, pitch spacing, and performance specifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both SSW-150-02-SM-D and SSW-150-02-S-D are active production components manufactured by Samtec Inc. with full ROHS3 compliance and EAR99 export classification. Selection between these parts should be based on inventory availability and procurement lead times. The SSW-150-02-S-D currently maintains higher stock levels at 1204 units compared to 1060 units for the SSW-150-02-SM-D. Both connectors meet identical electrical performance specifications, mechanical dimensions, and environmental operating requirements. Component selection may also consider moisture sensitivity level designation, where SSW-150-02-S-D is rated MSL 1 (Unlimited) compared to SSW-150-02-SM-D with MSL Not Applicable.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are SSW-150-02-SM-D and SSW-150-02-S-D electrically interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both connectors maintain identical electrical specifications including 4.7A per contact current rating, gold-plated mating contacts with 30.0µin thickness, and phosphor bronze contact material. Operating temperature range, voltage isolation, and contact resistance characteristics are equivalent.

Q: What are the mechanical compatibility considerations?

A: Both parts are mechanically compatible. They share identical pitch spacing (0.100" / 2.54mm), number of positions (100), row configuration (2 rows), insulation height (0.335"), and contact post length (0.194"). Through-hole mounting and solder termination are identical.

Q: Do these connectors require different PCB footprints?

A: No. Both SSW-150-02-SM-D and SSW-150-02-S-D use the same base product number (SSW-150) and maintain identical through-hole mounting dimensions. PCB footprints are directly interchangeable.

Q: What is the difference between the part number designations?

A: The part numbers differ in the fastening type designation within the model string. Both parts are manufactured within the same SSW series by Samtec Inc. and represent equivalent connector solutions within the product line.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both SSW-150-02-SM-D and SSW-150-02-S-D are ROHS3 compliant and carry EAR99 export classification.

Q: Which part should be selected for new designs?

A: Selection should be based on current inventory availability and supply chain requirements. Both parts are active production items suitable for new designs. The SSW-150-02-S-D offers higher current stock availability.
