Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the AXK5L34337G is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

  • Connector Type: Socket, Outer Shroud Contacts (mechanical and electrical interface requirement)
  • Number of Positions: 34 (pin count and contact arrangement)
  • Pitch: 0.020" (0.50mm) (contact spacing and PCB footprint compatibility)
  • Number of Rows: 2 (physical layout and mating interface)
  • Mounting Type: Surface Mount (assembly process compatibility)
  • Contact Finish: Gold (electrical performance and corrosion resistance)
  • Features: Board Guide (mechanical alignment and stability)

The AXK5F34337YG meets all substitution criteria as an active-status equivalent from the same manufacturer, with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Variations in mated stacking height and height above board are within acceptable tolerance ranges for connector socket applications and do not affect functional compatibility.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The AXK5F34337YG is the direct functional equivalent for the obsolete AXK5L34337G. Selection of the substitute part is supported by:

  • Active Product Status: The AXK5F34337YG maintains active manufacturing status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity.
  • Identical Electrical and Mechanical Specifications: All critical parameters for connector socket functionality are equivalent between the two parts.
  • RoHS Compliance: The AXK5F34337YG is RoHS compliant, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements.
  • Equivalent Moisture Sensitivity: Both parts share MSL 1 classification, indicating identical handling and storage requirements.
  • Regulatory Alignment: Both parts carry identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8536.69.4040) classifications.

The minor dimensional variations in stacking height and board height do not affect electrical performance or mechanical compatibility with standard mating connectors designed for 0.50mm pitch, 34-position socket interfaces.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the AXK5F34337YG be used as a direct replacement for the AXK5L34337G in existing designs?

A: Yes. The AXK5F34337YG is electrically and mechanically equivalent. Both connectors feature identical pitch (0.50mm), position count (34), row configuration (2), contact finish (gold), and mounting type (surface mount). The dimensional differences in stacking height (1.2mm vs. 1.5mm) and height above board (1.14mm vs. 1.35mm) are within acceptable tolerance ranges for standard connector applications.

Q: What is the primary reason for substitution?

A: The AXK5L34337G is classified as obsolete. The AXK5F34337YG is an active product from the same manufacturer with identical functional specifications, ensuring continued availability and supply chain reliability.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: Yes. The AXK5L34337G is supplied in bulk packaging, while the AXK5F34337YG is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format. This difference affects handling and assembly processes but does not impact electrical or mechanical performance.

Q: Do both parts meet current compliance standards?

A: The AXK5F34337YG is RoHS compliant. Both parts are REACH unaffected and carry identical regulatory classifications (ECCN: EAR99; HTSUS: 8536.69.4040).

Q: What is the moisture sensitivity level for these connectors?

A: Both the AXK5L34337G and AXK5F34337YG are classified as MSL 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions for storage or handling.
