AMC46MSST Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The AMC46MSST is a 92-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 configuration with dual read-out capability. The part features beryllium copper contacts with gold plating and operates across a temperature range of -65°C to 200°C. The AMC46MSST is classified as obsolete, necessitating identification of active equivalent components to maintain design continuity and ensure ongoing component availability for production and field service applications.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the AMC46MSST is based on alignment of core electrical and mechanical parameters that define functional compatibility within card edge connector applications. The primary substitution criteria include:

Critical Parameters for Substitution:

• Manufacturer: Sullins Connector Solutions (same manufacturer ensures design compatibility)
• Category: Card Edge Connectors (same connector class)
• Number of Positions: 92 positions (electrical interface requirement)
• Number of Rows: 2 rows (physical configuration requirement)
• Pitch: 0.100" (2.54mm) (mechanical spacing standard)
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant (regulatory compliance alignment)
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited) (environmental handling equivalence)

The RMC46MSST is identified as a direct substitute based on manufacturer designation and product line continuity. This part maintains the same base product number series (46) and represents the active production equivalent to the obsolete AMC46MSST.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The RMC46MSST is the appropriate substitute for the obsolete AMC46MSST based on the following engineering criteria:

Product Status Alignment: The AMC46MSST is classified as obsolete, while the RMC46MSST maintains active production status. This transition ensures continued component availability and manufacturing support.

Regulatory Compliance: Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, ensuring equivalent regulatory standing for applications subject to environmental and hazardous substance restrictions.

Moisture Sensitivity: Both parts carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) classification, indicating identical moisture handling and storage requirements with no special precautions necessary.

Manufacturer Continuity: Both components are manufactured by Sullins Connector Solutions, ensuring design lineage and connector interface consistency within the same product family.

The RMC46MSST represents the active production line continuation of the AMC46MSST series and is designated as the direct manufacturer equivalent for component replacement and new design applications.
