AXE260124 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The AXE260124 is a 60-position connector header manufactured by Panasonic Electric Works, designed for surface mount applications with outer shroud contacts and gold plating. This component belongs to the A4US series and is classified as an active product with full RoHS compliance. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters align with the original specification, ensuring functional interchangeability in rectangular connector applications requiring identical pitch, position count, mounting type, and contact configuration.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The AXE660124 qualifies as a parametric equivalent to the AXE260124 based on the following critical parameters:

• Number of Positions: Both parts feature 60 positions
• Pitch: Both maintain 0.016" (0.40mm) pitch spacing
• Number of Rows: Both are configured as 2-row headers
• Connector Type: Both are header connectors with outer shroud contacts
• Mounting Type: Both are surface mount components
• Contact Finish: Both utilize gold plating
• Mated Stacking Height: Both specify 0.8mm
• Height Above Board: Both measure 0.026" (0.65mm)
• RoHS Compliance: Both are RoHS compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: Both are MSL 1 (Unlimited)

The primary distinction between these parts is the series designation (A4US versus A4S) and base product number (AXE260 versus AXE660), with no variation in the electrical or mechanical parameters that govern connector interchangeability.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the AXE260124 and AXE660124 are active products with full RoHS compliance and identical MSL ratings. Selection between these parts should be based on availability and supply chain requirements. The AXE260124 carries 657 pieces in current inventory, while the AXE660124 has 7,300 pieces available. Both parts meet the same regulatory classifications (ECCN: EAR99; HTSUS: 8536.69.4040) and feature equivalent electrical and mechanical specifications for rectangular connector applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can AXE660124 be used as a direct replacement for AXE260124?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical and mechanical parameters including position count, pitch, row configuration, mounting type, contact finish, and stacking heights. The series designation difference (A4US versus A4S) does not affect functional interchangeability.

Q: What are the critical parameters for connector substitution?

A: For rectangular connectors, substitution requires matching: number of positions, pitch spacing, number of rows, connector type, mounting method, contact finish, and physical dimensions (stacking height and height above board). All these parameters are identical between AXE260124 and AXE660124.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both AXE260124 and AXE660124 are RoHS compliant with MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity ratings.

Q: What is the difference between the A4US and A4S series designations?

A: The series designation reflects internal Panasonic product line organization. Both series maintain identical specifications for the 60-position, 0.40mm pitch header configuration specified in these part numbers.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: Both parts are supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging format, suitable for automated assembly processes.
