Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the AXK6L60337G is determined by the following critical parameters:

  • Connector Type: Header, Center Strip Contacts (must match)
  • Number of Positions: 60 (must match)
  • Pitch: 0.020" (0.50mm) (must match)
  • Number of Rows: 2 (must match)
  • Mounting Type: Surface Mount (must match)
  • Contact Finish: Gold (must match)
  • Features: Board Guide (must match)

The AXK6F60537YG qualifies as a direct substitute based on identical values across all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. Both parts share the same connector architecture, position count, pitch spacing, and contact configuration. The primary distinction lies in product status and packaging format, with the substitute part being active in production and available in Tape & Reel packaging.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The AXK6F60537YG is the designated substitute for the obsolete AXK6L60337G. Selection of this substitute is supported by:

  • Functional Equivalence: Identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical connector parameters
  • Active Production Status: The substitute part is currently in active production, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity
  • Compliance Alignment: Both parts maintain MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity classification and share equivalent regulatory compliance profiles
  • Packaging Availability: The substitute is available in Tape & Reel packaging, suitable for automated assembly processes

Design integration requires consideration of the dimensional differences in height above board (0.037" versus 0.069") and mated stacking heights (1.2mm versus 2.5mm). These variations may impact PCB layout and mating component clearances in space-constrained applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can AXK6F60537YG be used as a direct replacement for AXK6L60337G?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical connector type, position count, pitch, row configuration, mounting method, and contact finish. The substitute is functionally equivalent for applications requiring a 60-position, 0.50mm pitch surface mount header with gold contacts and board guide features.

Q: What are the key differences between these parts?

A: The primary differences are product status (obsolete versus active) and physical dimensions. The substitute part has greater height above board (0.069" versus 0.037") and mated stacking height (2.5mm versus 1.2mm). These dimensional variations must be evaluated against specific PCB layout and mating component requirements.

Q: Are there packaging considerations for the substitute part?

A: The AXK6F60537YG is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging, which is standard for automated surface mount assembly. The original part packaging format is not specified in available documentation.

Q: Do both parts have the same moisture sensitivity rating?

A: Yes. Both parts are classified as MSL 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions for storage or handling.

Q: Are there compliance or certification differences?

A: Both parts share equivalent regulatory classifications (ECCN: EAR99, HTSUS: 8536.69.4040). The substitute part carries RoHS Compliant certification. Both maintain REACH Unaffected status.
