Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the 61083-122000 are classified based on electrical and mechanical parameter alignment:

Direct Manufacturer Substitutes (Amphenol ICC):

• 61083-122400LF and 61083-122409LF maintain identical electrical specifications: 120 positions, 0.031" (0.80mm) pitch, 2-row configuration, surface mount, gold contact finish at 8.00µin thickness, and board guide features
• Both parts support the same mated stacking heights (6mm, 10mm, 14mm) and height above board (0.224" / 5.70mm)
• These parts differ from the main part in product status (active vs. obsolete) and RoHS compliance status
• Packaging differs: 61083-122400LF and 61083-122409LF are supplied in tubes, while 61083-122000 has no specified packaging

Cross-Manufacturer Substitute (TE Connectivity):

• 179029-5 provides parametric equivalence with identical electrical specifications: 120 positions, 0.031" (0.80mm) pitch, 2-row configuration, surface mount, gold contact finish at 8.00µin thickness, and board guide features
• Supports extended mated stacking heights (6mm, 10mm, 14mm, 18mm) compared to the main part
• Height above board is 0.220" (5.59mm), a 0.004" (0.11mm) variance from the main part
• Different connector series (Free Height vs. BergStak®) and manufacturer

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For RoHS-Compliant Applications: Select 61083-122400LF or 61083-122409LF. Both parts maintain full electrical and mechanical compatibility with the obsolete 61083-122000 while meeting RoHS compliance requirements. 61083-122409LF carries REACH Affected status, while 61083-122400LF is REACH Unaffected. Choose based on supply chain and regulatory requirements specific to your application region.

For Non-RoHS Applications or Legacy System Support: The 61083-122000 remains available in inventory (921 pcs). If RoHS compliance is not required, this part may be retained for existing designs. However, given its obsolete status, transition planning to an active part is recommended for long-term production sustainability.

For Cross-Manufacturer Flexibility: The TE Connectivity 179029-5 provides an alternative from a different manufacturer while maintaining core electrical specifications. This part supports an additional 18mm mated stacking height option and has a 0.004" (0.11mm) lower height above board. Use this option only if your system design accommodates the height variance and extended stacking height capability is beneficial.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 61083-122400LF and 61083-122409LF be used interchangeably with 61083-122000?

A: Yes. Both parts are direct manufacturer substitutes with identical electrical and mechanical parameters: 120 positions, 0.031" (0.80mm) pitch, 2-row configuration, surface mount, gold contact finish at 8.00µin thickness, board guide features, and matching mated stacking heights (6mm, 10mm, 14mm). The primary differences are product status (active vs. obsolete), RoHS compliance, and packaging format (tube vs. unspecified).

Q: What is the difference between 61083-122400LF and 61083-122409LF?

A: Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical. The distinction lies in REACH compliance status: 61083-122400LF is REACH Unaffected, while 61083-122409LF is REACH Affected. Selection depends on your supply chain requirements and regional regulatory obligations.

Q: Can the TE Connectivity 179029-5 replace the Amphenol ICC 61083-122000?

A: The 179029-5 is a parametric equivalent with matching core specifications (120 positions, 0.031" pitch, 2-row, surface mount, gold contacts). However, two mechanical differences exist: the height above board is 0.220" (5.59mm) versus 0.224" (5.70mm) for the original part, and the 179029-5 supports an additional 18mm mated stacking height. Verify that your PCB layout and system design accommodate these dimensional variations before substitution.

Q: Why is the 61083-122000 listed as obsolete?

A: The 61083-122000 is classified as obsolete by the manufacturer. Active alternatives (61083-122400LF and 61083-122409LF) are available from the same manufacturer with improved compliance status. For new designs or production transitions, use active parts to ensure long-term supply chain stability.

Q: What does MSL 1 (Unlimited) mean for these connectors?

A: MSL 1 (Unlimited) indicates the lowest moisture sensitivity level. These connectors can be stored indefinitely without moisture-related degradation and do not require special dry-pack storage or baking procedures prior to assembly.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: Yes. The 61083-122000 has no specified packaging format. The 61083-122400LF and 61083-122409LF are supplied in tubes. The TE Connectivity 179029-5 has no specified packaging. Confirm packaging requirements with your procurement process, as tube packaging may affect handling, storage, and assembly procedures.
