AMC40MWST Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The AMC40MWST is an 80-position male card edge connector manufactured by Sullins Connector Solutions. This connector is designed to interface with female edgecards using a 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch and features dual read-out capability with gold-plated beryllium copper contacts. The product is classified as obsolete, necessitating identification of active equivalent components for continued system support and new designs requiring compatible interconnect solutions.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the AMC40MWST is determined by alignment of the following critical parameters:

Primary Substitution Criteria:

• Connector category: Card Edge Connectors
• Number of positions: 80
• Number of rows: 2
• Pitch specification: 0.100" (2.54mm)
• Manufacturer: Sullins Connector Solutions
• RoHS3 compliance
• MSL rating: 1 (Unlimited)
• REACH compliance status

The RMC40MWST qualifies as a direct substitute based on shared manufacturer origin, identical position count, row configuration, and pitch specification. Both components maintain equivalent regulatory compliance certifications (ROHS3 Compliant, REACH Unaffected, MSL 1). The RMC40MWST carries active product status, providing continued availability for applications requiring 80-position, 2-row card edge connector functionality at 0.100" pitch intervals.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The RMC40MWST is the direct substitute for the obsolete AMC40MWST. Selection of the RMC40MWST is supported by the following factors:

Regulatory Compliance: Both components maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, satisfying environmental and hazardous substance requirements for current manufacturing standards.

Product Availability: The RMC40MWST carries active product status with 720 units in stock, ensuring supply chain continuity for applications currently using the AMC40MWST or requiring equivalent 80-position, 2-row card edge connector functionality.

Moisture Sensitivity: Both components share MSL rating 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity constraints during storage, handling, or assembly processes.

Manufacturer Continuity: Both components originate from Sullins Connector Solutions, maintaining design and manufacturing consistency within the same product family.

For applications requiring the AMC40MWST, transition to the RMC40MWST provides functional equivalence with the advantage of active product status and current inventory availability.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Why is the AMC40MWST classified as obsolete?

A: The AMC40MWST has reached end-of-life status within Sullins Connector Solutions' product portfolio. The RMC40MWST serves as the active replacement, providing equivalent functionality for new designs and legacy system support.

Q: Are the AMC40MWST and RMC40MWST mechanically compatible?

A: Both components are 80-position, 2-row card edge connectors manufactured by Sullins Connector Solutions with 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch specification. Mechanical compatibility is established through shared connector category, position count, and row configuration.

Q: What are the key parameters that define substitution eligibility?

A: Substitution eligibility is determined by: connector category (Card Edge Connectors), number of positions (80), number of rows (2), pitch specification (0.100"), manufacturer origin (Sullins Connector Solutions), and regulatory compliance status (ROHS3 Compliant, REACH Unaffected, MSL 1).

Q: Does the RMC40MWST meet current environmental compliance requirements?

A: Yes. The RMC40MWST is ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current environmental and hazardous substance regulations applicable to electronic components.

Q: What is the moisture sensitivity level for both components?

A: Both the AMC40MWST and RMC40MWST carry MSL rating 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity constraints during standard storage and handling conditions.

Q: Is the RMC40MWST currently available?

A: Yes. The RMC40MWST is classified as active product status with 720 units in current inventory.
