Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The AXT340224 qualifies as a direct substitute for the AXT340264 based on matching electrical and mechanical parameters. Substitution is valid when the following criteria are met:

• Connector type: Socket, Outer Shroud Contacts (identical)
• Position count: 40 positions (identical)
• Pitch specification: 0.016" (0.40mm) (identical)
• Row configuration: 2 rows (identical)
• Mounting technology: Surface Mount (identical)
• Contact finish: Gold plating (identical)
• Height above board: 0.096" (2.45mm) (identical)
• Mated stacking heights: 2.5mm, 3mm (identical)
• Solder retention feature: Present (identical)
• Moisture sensitivity: MSL 1 (identical)
• Base product series: P4S (identical)

The primary distinction between these parts is product status and packaging configuration, not functional or dimensional characteristics.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can AXT340224 be used as a direct replacement for AXT340264 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical and mechanical specifications, including connector type, position count, pitch, mounting type, contact finish, and height above board. No design changes are required.

Q: What is the primary reason to transition from AXT340264 to AXT340224?

A: The AXT340264 is classified as obsolete, while AXT340224 maintains active product status. This transition ensures continued component availability and supply chain reliability for production.

Q: Does packaging format affect electrical performance?

A: No. The AXT340224 is supplied in Tape & Reel packaging, which is a handling and delivery format. This does not alter the electrical or mechanical properties of the connector itself.

Q: Is RoHS compliance a functional difference between these parts?

A: RoHS compliance is a material composition and environmental standard certification. The AXT340224 carries RoHS Compliant status, while the AXT340264 does not specify this certification. Both parts maintain identical functional specifications.

Q: Are the mated stacking heights interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both parts support identical mated stacking heights of 2.5mm and 3mm, allowing flexible integration into systems with varying connector stack requirements.

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

A: Both parts carry MSL 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions during storage or handling.
