Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the AS33-M50M-B54 is based on the following critical parameters that must remain consistent:

• Encoder type: Magnetic
• Output protocol: BiSS-C digital interface
• Supply voltage range: 4.5V ~ 5.5V
• Actuator configuration: External magnet, not included
• Mounting and orientation: Chassis mount, motors, vertical orientation
• Termination: Connector-based interface
• Regulatory compliance: ROHS3 compliant

The AS33-M42M-B54 meets all these substitution criteria. The primary difference between the main part and the substitute is the pulses per revolution specification: the AS33-M50M-B54 has a fixed specification, while the AS33-M42M-B54 offers programmable pulses per revolution, providing additional flexibility in system configuration.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The AS33-M42M-B54 is the qualified substitute for the AS33-M50M-B54. Both components maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters: magnetic encoder type, BiSS-C output protocol, 4.5V to 5.5V supply voltage, external magnet actuation, and connector termination.

The AS33-M42M-B54 is currently in active production status with ROHS3 compliance and EAR99 export classification, ensuring long-term availability and regulatory alignment. The programmable pulses per revolution feature of the AS33-M42M-B54 provides additional system flexibility compared to the fixed specification of the obsolete AS33-M50M-B54.
