Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the AXN440330J are identified based on the following critical parameters that determine functional and mechanical compatibility:

• Connector Type: Header with outer shroud contacts (maintained across substitutes)
• Number of Positions: 40-position configuration (maintained)
• Number of Rows: 2-row layout (maintained)
• Mounting Type: Surface mount technology (maintained)
• Contact Finish: Gold plating (maintained)
• Manufacturer: Panasonic Electric Works (maintained)

The AXK6S40447YG qualifies as a substitute part. While it operates at a different pitch specification (0.020" vs. 0.031"), it maintains the same connector type, position count, row configuration, mounting method, and contact finish. The substitute belongs to the active P5KS series and is currently in production, addressing the obsolescence status of the original part.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The AXK6S40447YG is available as an active production substitute for the obsolete AXN440330J. Both components are manufactured by Panasonic Electric Works and maintain identical connector architecture, position count, row configuration, and contact finish specifications.

The substitute part carries ROHS3 compliance certification, supporting regulatory requirements for new designs and manufacturing environments. Both parts maintain MSL 1 classification, indicating unlimited moisture sensitivity tolerance.

Physical dimensional differences exist between the parts: the substitute exhibits increased height above board (0.130" versus 0.107") and higher mated stacking heights (4mm, 4.5mm, 7mm versus 3mm, 4.6mm, 6mm). The pitch difference (0.020" versus 0.031") represents a significant mechanical change that requires PCB layout modification and connector mate compatibility assessment.

Selection of the AXK6S40447YG requires confirmation that the application design accommodates the dimensional and pitch variations while maintaining electrical and mechanical performance requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the AXK6S40447YG directly replace the AXN440330J without PCB modification?

A: No. The pitch difference (0.020" versus 0.031") requires PCB layout redesign. The increased height above board and mated stacking heights also necessitate mechanical clearance verification in the application assembly.

Q: What are the key compatibility factors between these connector models?

A: Both parts maintain 40-position, 2-row header configuration with outer shroud contacts, surface mount technology, and gold contact finish. These parameters ensure functional equivalence at the connector interface level. Pitch and dimensional differences require design-level assessment.

Q: Is the AXK6S40447YG suitable for new product designs?

A: Yes. The AXK6S40447YG is an active production part with ROHS3 compliance, making it appropriate for new designs. The pitch and dimensional specifications must be incorporated into the design phase.

Q: What packaging format is available for the substitute part?

A: The AXK6S40447YG is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging format.

Q: Are both parts subject to the same moisture sensitivity requirements?

A: Yes. Both the AXN440330J and AXK6S40447YG carry MSL 1 classification, indicating unlimited moisture sensitivity tolerance and no special storage or handling requirements.
