Engineering Selection Recommendations

The RMC45MWST serves as the active substitute for the obsolete AMC45MWST. Both components are manufactured by Sullins Connector Solutions and share identical RoHS3 compliance and REACH regulatory status. The substitute part maintains MSL Level 1 rating, indicating no moisture sensitivity constraints during storage and handling.

Selection of the RMC45MWST is appropriate for applications requiring 90-position, 2-row card edge connector functionality at 0.100" pitch. The active product status of the RMC45MWST ensures continued manufacturing availability, technical support, and supply chain reliability compared to the obsolete AMC45MWST.

Both components satisfy equivalent regulatory and environmental compliance requirements. The transition from AMC45MWST to RMC45MWST does not introduce additional moisture sensitivity or temperature operating constraints.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What is the primary reason for substituting the AMC45MWST?

A: The AMC45MWST is classified as obsolete. The RMC45MWST is the active equivalent from Sullins Connector Solutions, ensuring continued product availability and manufacturing support.

Q: Are the AMC45MWST and RMC45MWST electrically compatible?

A: Both components are 90-position, 2-row male card edge connectors manufactured by Sullins Connector Solutions. Electrical compatibility is established through shared design family lineage (AMC45 base product vs. RMC45 base product).

Q: Do both parts meet the same regulatory requirements?
