Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Recommendation: Molex 0484080003

The Molex 0484080003 is the direct functional equivalent to the obsolete 0484080004. Both parts share identical electrical specifications, mechanical dimensions, and operating parameters. The 0484080003 maintains Active product status with equivalent current rating (0.25A, 1.8A), voltage rating (30VAC/DC), and mating cycle rating (5000). This part provides the most direct replacement path with no design modifications required.

Secondary Recommendations:

Würth Elektronik 692121430000 and GCT USB1086-GF-B are qualified alternatives for applications requiring enhanced reliability. The 692121430000 maintains identical operating temperature and mating cycle specifications as the original part. The USB1086-GF-B offers superior mating cycle performance (20000 cycles) and extended current rating (3A), suitable for high-cycle applications.

Kycon KUSBVX-AS1N9-BL15 and Amphenol ICC GSB3121171CHR are suitable for applications with extended temperature requirements (-40°C and -55°C respectively) or enhanced flammability ratings (UL94 V-0).

Stewart Connector SS-52000-004 is applicable where copper alloy shielding material is acceptable and operating temperature does not exceed 80°C.

All substitute parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited) certification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Molex 0484080003 be used as a direct replacement for the 0484080004?

A: Yes. Both parts are USB-A receptacle connectors with identical 9-position vertical through-hole configuration, USB 3.2 Gen 1 specification, current rating (0.25A, 1.8A), voltage rating (30VAC/DC), and mating cycle rating (5000). No design modifications are required.

Q: What is the primary difference between the 0484080004 and 0484080003?

A: The 0484080004 is Obsolete; the 0484080003 is Active. Both parts are electrically and mechanically equivalent. The packaging differs (0484080003 is supplied in Tray format).

Q: Are all substitute parts compatible with USB 3.0 applications?

A: Yes. All listed substitute parts are rated for USB 3.2 Gen 1 (Superspeed USB 3.0) specification and maintain the 9-position receptacle configuration required for USB-A connectivity.

Q: Which substitute part offers the highest mating cycle rating?

A: The GCT USB1086-GF-B provides 20000 mating cycles, compared to 5000 cycles for the original Molex 0484080004. This part is suitable for high-cycle insertion applications.

Q: Do all substitute parts meet RoHS3 compliance?

A: Yes. All substitute parts listed are ROHS3 Compliant and carry Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited) certification.

Q: What is the operating temperature range for substitute parts?

A: The original Molex 0484080004 operates from -20°C to 85°C. Substitute parts maintain this range or extend it: Amphenol ICC GSB3121171CHR (-55°C to 85°C), Kycon KUSBVX-AS1N9-BL15 (-40°C to 85°C), and GCT USB1086-GF-B (-40°C to 85°C). Stewart Connector SS-52000-004 operates to 80°C maximum.
