AXE632224 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The AXE632224 is a 32-position connector header manufactured by Panasonic Electric Works, designed for surface mount applications with gold-plated contacts and outer shroud contact configuration. This component is classified as obsolete, making identification of functionally equivalent alternatives essential for ongoing production support and design updates. The outer shroud contact design provides mechanical protection and alignment during mating operations.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the AXE632224 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Position Count & Pitch: 32 positions at 0.016" (0.40mm) pitch
• Row Configuration: 2-row arrangement
• Mounting Technology: Surface mount capability
• Contact Material: Gold plating for signal integrity and corrosion resistance
• Solder Retention: Required for manufacturing reliability
• Compliance: RoHS compliance and MSL rating

The identified substitute AXT432124 maintains compatibility across all core electrical and mechanical parameters. However, the contact configuration differs (center strip versus outer shroud), and mated stacking heights vary, requiring verification of PCB layout and mating connector specifications before implementation.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The AXT432124 provides electrical and mechanical compatibility with the AXE632224 based on matching position count, pitch, row configuration, mounting technology, and contact material specifications. Both components maintain RoHS compliance and MSL rating 1 status.

The primary design consideration is the contact configuration difference: AXE632224 uses outer shroud contacts while AXT432124 uses center strip contacts. This affects mechanical alignment and mating force characteristics. Additionally, the AXT432124 exhibits greater height above board (0.049" versus 0.026") and higher mated stacking heights (1.5mm/2.5mm versus 0.8mm/1mm), which may impact PCB layout clearances and connector stack-up calculations.

Both components are classified as obsolete. Selection should account for available inventory, PCB redesign feasibility, and mating connector compatibility with the intended application.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can AXT432124 directly replace AXE632224 without PCB modification?

A: Electrical compatibility exists due to matching position count, pitch, and row configuration. However, mechanical differences in contact configuration and height above board may require PCB layout evaluation. The mating connector must be compatible with the center strip contact design of the AXT432124.

Q: What is the significance of the contact configuration difference?

A: Outer shroud contacts (AXE632224) provide mechanical guidance and protection during mating. Center strip contacts (AXT432124) use a different alignment mechanism. These are not interchangeable without corresponding changes to the mating connector.

Q: Are there height clearance implications?

A: Yes. The AXT432124 is 0.023" (0.60mm) taller above the board than the AXE632224. Verify available vertical clearance in the application enclosure and confirm that mated stacking heights (1.5mm/2.5mm for AXT432124 versus 0.8mm/1mm for AXE632224) do not exceed design limits.

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance requirements?

A: Both components are RoHS compliant with MSL rating 1 (unlimited moisture sensitivity). ECCN and HTSUS classifications are identical, supporting equivalent regulatory treatment.

Q: What packaging format is available for AXT432124?

A: AXT432124 is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format, suitable for automated assembly processes.
