AXE220124 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The AXE220124 is a 20-position connector header manufactured by Panasonic Electric Works, designed for surface mount applications with outer shroud contacts and gold plating. This component is classified as an active product with full RoHS compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating. Substitute parts become necessary when the primary part experiences supply constraints, extended lead times, or when alternative packaging formats better align with procurement or assembly requirements.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the AXE220124 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters: connector type (header with outer shroud contacts), position count (20), pitch specification (0.40mm), row configuration (2 rows), mounting method (surface mount), contact material and finish (gold), mated stacking height (0.8mm), height above board (0.65mm), solder retention feature, RoHS compliance status, and moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1). All identified substitute parts match these parameters without exception. Packaging format differences (Tape & Reel versus Cut Tape & Digi-Reel) do not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility and represent alternative supply chain options.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three parts maintain active product status with full RoHS compliance and identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection between AXE220124, AXE620124, and BM20B(0.8)-20DP-0.4V(53) should be based on packaging availability and supply chain requirements. The AXE620124 offers significantly higher inventory availability (111,468 units) compared to the primary part (780 units), making it suitable for high-volume production scenarios. The BM20B(0.8)-20DP-0.4V(53) from Hirose provides cross-manufacturer compatibility with moderate inventory levels (1,669 units). All parts carry identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8536.69.4040) classifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can AXE620124 be used as a direct replacement for AXE220124? A: Yes. Both parts are manufactured by Panasonic Electric Works and share identical electrical and mechanical parameters. The difference is packaging format: AXE220124 uses Tape & Reel while AXE620124 uses Cut Tape & Digi-Reel. This does not affect component functionality or PCB assembly compatibility.

Q: Is the Hirose BM20B(0.8)-20DP-0.4V(53) fully compatible with designs specified for AXE220124? A: Yes. The Hirose part matches all critical parameters including position count, pitch, mounting type, contact finish, stacking height, and compliance certifications. Cross-manufacturer substitution is electrically and mechanically valid.

Q: What is the significance of the 0.8mm mated stacking height specification? A: The 0.8mm mated stacking height defines the vertical distance when the header is mated with its corresponding connector. This parameter is critical for PCB layout and enclosure clearance calculations. All substitute parts maintain this specification.

Q: Does packaging format affect assembly or performance? A: Packaging format (Tape & Reel versus Cut Tape & Digi-Reel) affects supply chain logistics and pick-and-place machine compatibility but does not alter electrical performance or mechanical fit on the PCB.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS compliant? A: Yes. AXE220124, AXE620124, and BM20B(0.8)-20DP-0.4V(53) are all RoHS compliant with MSL 1 (unlimited moisture sensitivity), suitable for standard storage and handling conditions.
