ASJ-200-D-HT Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The ASJ-200-D-HT is a 4.60mm stereo phone jack connector manufactured by Adam Tech, designed for audio applications requiring a standard headphone jack interface. This connector features a through-hole, right-angle mounting configuration with solder termination and accommodates 3 conductors (TRS - Tip, Ring, Sleeve) for stereo signal transmission.

The ASJ-200-D-HT is classified as obsolete. Identifying equivalent substitute parts is necessary to maintain design continuity, ensure supply chain availability, and support ongoing production or repair requirements for systems utilizing this connector type.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the ASJ-200-D-HT is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Connector type and mating diameter (4.60mm stereo phone jack)
• Gender (Female)
• Signal configuration (3 Conductor, TRS stereo)
• Mounting configuration (Through Hole, Right Angle)
• Termination method (Solder)
• Contact material and plating (Copper Alloy with Silver plating)
• Housing material (Thermoplastic)
• Compliance certifications (RoHS3, REACH Unaffected)

The substitute part STX-3501-3N meets all critical substitution criteria. Both connectors share identical mechanical interfaces, electrical signal architecture, and material specifications. Differences in operating temperature range, voltage rating, and current rating represent variations within acceptable parameters for audio jack applications but must be evaluated against specific application requirements.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The STX-3501-3N from Kycon, Inc. is a direct mechanical and electrical substitute for the obsolete ASJ-200-D-HT. Both connectors are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current regulatory requirements for electronic component manufacturing and use.

The STX-3501-3N offers the advantage of active product status, ensuring ongoing availability and supply chain support. The extended operating temperature range (-25°C to 85°C versus -20°C to 70°C) provides broader environmental tolerance.

Applications requiring the full 500 mA current capacity or 30VDC rating of the ASJ-200-D-HT should verify that the STX-3501-3N's 300 mA and 16VDC specifications are sufficient for the intended use case. For standard audio jack applications operating at typical signal levels and currents, the STX-3501-3N specifications are adequate.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the STX-3501-3N be used as a direct replacement for the ASJ-200-D-HT?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical mechanical interfaces (4.60mm stereo phone jack, through-hole right-angle mounting, solder termination) and electrical signal architecture (3 Conductor TRS stereo configuration). The connectors are mechanically and electrically interchangeable for standard audio applications.

Q: What are the key differences between these two connectors?

A: The primary differences are operating temperature range, voltage rating, and current rating. The STX-3501-3N operates from -25°C to 85°C (versus -20°C to 70°C for the ASJ-200-D-HT), has a 16VDC rating (versus 30VDC), and supports 300 mA (versus 500 mA). For typical audio jack applications, these differences are not limiting factors.

Q: Why is the ASJ-200-D-HT listed as obsolete?

A: The ASJ-200-D-HT has been discontinued by Adam Tech. The STX-3501-3N is an active product from Kycon, Inc., ensuring continued availability and supply chain support.

Q: Are both connectors RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both the ASJ-200-D-HT and STX-3501-3N are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current environmental and regulatory standards.

Q: What packaging is available for the STX-3501-3N?

A: The STX-3501-3N is available in bulk packaging.
