Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the AXG8300J4 is determined by alignment across the following critical parameters:

• Pitch and Contact Spacing: 0.014" (0.35mm) pitch in 2-row configuration
• Mounting Technology: Surface mount assembly compatibility
• Contact Material and Finish: Gold plating for signal integrity and corrosion resistance
• Physical Envelope: Mated stacking height of 0.6mm and height above board of 0.018" (0.46mm)
• Electrical and Environmental Compliance: RoHS compliance and MSL 1 rating
• Connector Family: Panasonic Electric Works A35 series rectangular connectors

The AXF6D3012 qualifies as a functional substitute based on these parameters. However, the AXF6D3012 is configured as a header (receptacle) with 30 positions, whereas the AXG8300J4 is a plug with 32 positions. This distinction reflects the mating pair relationship within the A35 series architecture.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The AXF6D3012 is available as an active product with current manufacturing support, addressing the obsolescence status of the AXG8300J4. Both components maintain identical pitch, row configuration, mounting technology, contact material, and physical stacking dimensions. Both are RoHS compliant with MSL 1 rating, ensuring compatibility with standard surface mount assembly processes and environmental requirements.

The primary distinction is the connector gender and position count: the AXG8300J4 functions as a plug with 32 positions, while the AXF6D3012 functions as a header with 30 positions. This relationship reflects the complementary mating pair design within the Panasonic A35 series. Selection between these components depends on the specific circuit board role—whether a plug or header interface is required for the application.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the AXF6D3012 directly replace the AXG8300J4 in existing designs?

A: Direct replacement requires evaluation of the circuit board interface requirement. The AXG8300J4 is a plug connector, while the AXF6D3012 is a header connector. If the original design calls for a plug interface, the AXF6D3012 cannot serve as a direct substitute without redesigning the mating connector interface. If the design requires a header, the AXF6D3012 is compatible.

Q: What is the significance of the position count difference (32 vs. 30)?

A: The AXG8300J4 includes 30 signal positions plus 2 dedicated power positions, totaling 32. The AXF6D3012 provides 30 positions. This difference must be evaluated against the specific signal and power distribution requirements of the application.

Q: Are the pitch and stacking dimensions identical?

A: Yes. Both components operate at 0.014" (0.35mm) pitch in a 2-row configuration with 0.6mm mated stacking height and 0.018" (0.46mm) height above board. These dimensions are interchangeable for PCB layout purposes.

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance and environmental standards?

A: Yes. Both the AXG8300J4 and AXF6D3012 are RoHS compliant with MSL 1 (unlimited moisture sensitivity level), ensuring compatibility with standard surface mount assembly and storage conditions.

Q: What is the packaging difference?

A: The AXG8300J4 packaging is not specified in available data. The AXF6D3012 is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format, standard for surface mount component distribution.
