AMC60MWST Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The AMC60MWST is a 120-position male card edge connector manufactured by Sullins Connector Solutions, designed to interface with female edgecards at 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch. This connector features dual read-out configuration with beryllium copper contacts finished in gold and operates across a temperature range of -65°C to 200°C. The part is classified as obsolete, necessitating identification of active equivalent alternatives to maintain design continuity and ensure ongoing component availability for applications requiring this connector type.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the AMC60MWST is determined by alignment of the following critical parameters:

Primary Substitution Criteria:

• Manufacturer: Sullins Connector Solutions (same manufacturer ensures design compatibility)
• Category: Card Edge Connectors (functional category match)
• Base Product Number: AMC60 series (product line continuity)
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant (regulatory compliance alignment)
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited) (handling and storage compatibility)
• REACH Status: REACH Unaffected (environmental compliance match)

The RMC60MWST is identified as a direct manufacturer substitute within the Sullins connector portfolio. Both parts share the same base product number designation (AMC60/RMC60 series) and maintain identical regulatory compliance certifications. The substitute part transitions from obsolete to active product status, ensuring long-term availability and continued manufacturing support.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Selection of the RMC60MWST as a substitute for the obsolete AMC60MWST is supported by the following engineering factors:

Regulatory Compliance: Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, ensuring compatibility with current environmental and hazardous substance regulations applicable to electronic component procurement.

Moisture Handling: Identical MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited) confirms equivalent moisture sensitivity characteristics, allowing substitution without modification to storage, handling, or packaging protocols.

Product Lifecycle: The transition from obsolete (AMC60MWST) to active (RMC60MWST) status ensures sustained manufacturing availability, technical support, and supply chain continuity for ongoing production requirements.

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

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What is the primary reason for substituting the AMC60MWST?

A: The AMC60MWST is classified as obsolete. The RMC60MWST provides an active alternative from the same manufacturer, ensuring continued availability and manufacturing support.

Q: Are the regulatory compliance certifications identical between the two parts?

A: Yes. Both the AMC60MWST and RMC60MWST maintain ROHS3 compliance, REACH unaffected status, and MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited), confirming equivalent regulatory standing.

Q: What parameters are shared between the main part and substitute?

A: The parts share manufacturer identity (Sullins Connector Solutions), category classification (Card Edge Connectors), base product number series (AMC60/RMC60), and all regulatory compliance certifications.

Q: Does the substitute part require different handling or storage procedures?

A: No. The identical MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited) indicates equivalent moisture sensitivity, requiring no modification to existing handling, storage, or packaging procedures.

Q: What is the inventory status of the substitute part?

A: The RMC60MWST is currently active with 839 pieces of new original stock available, compared to 917 pieces of the obsolete AMC60MWST.

Q: Are there any export control differences between the two parts?

A: The AMC60MWST carries an obsolete ECCN classification, while the RMC60MWST is classified as EAR99, reflecting standard export control treatment for active commercial connector products.
