Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the 5316076-3 is determined by strict equivalence across all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. The substitute part must maintain identical specifications in the following areas:

Electrical Parameters:

• 50-position connector configuration
• 0.024" (0.60mm) pitch spacing
• 2-row arrangement
• Gold contact finish with 8.00µin (0.203µm) thickness

Mechanical Parameters:

• Surface mount mounting technology
• Plug connector type with outer shroud contacts
• 4mm mated stacking height
• 0.136" (3.45mm) height above board
• Board guide and solder retention features

Compliance Parameters:

• ROHS3 compliance
• Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited)
• Free Height (FH) GIGA series classification

The substitute part 5316135-3 satisfies all these requirements and is therefore classified as a parametric equivalent.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 5316135-3 is the direct parametric equivalent for the obsolete 5316076-3. All electrical, mechanical, and dimensional specifications are identical across both parts. The primary distinction is product status: the 5316076-3 is classified as Obsolete, while the 5316135-3 maintains Active status with current manufacturing support.

Both parts carry ROHS3 compliance certification and identical moisture sensitivity ratings, ensuring regulatory and environmental compatibility. The 5316135-3 is available in Bulk packaging with 857 pieces in current inventory, providing supply chain continuity for applications requiring the 50-position, 0.024" pitch surface mount connector configuration.

For new designs or production transitions, the 5316135-3 is the appropriate selection. For legacy system support or repair applications, the 5316135-3 provides functional and mechanical interchangeability with the obsolete 5316076-3.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
