Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The AXT360124 qualifies as a direct substitute for the AXT360164 based on the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type: Both are socket connectors with outer shroud contacts
• Position Count: Both feature 60 positions
• Pitch Specification: Both maintain 0.016" (0.40mm) pitch
• Row Configuration: Both use 2-row arrangement
• Mounting Technology: Both are surface mount designs
• Contact Material: Both use gold plating
• Stacking Height: Both support 1.5mm mated stacking height
• Height Above Board: Both measure 0.057" (1.45mm)
• Solder Retention: Both incorporate solder retention features
• Series Designation: Both belong to the P4S series
• Moisture Sensitivity: Both rated MSL 1 (Unlimited)

The primary distinction is product status: AXT360164 is obsolete while AXT360124 is active, with AXT360124 supplied in Tape & Reel packaging and RoHS Compliant certification.
