AXN450330P Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The AXN450330P is a 50-position rectangular connector header manufactured by Panasonic Electric Works, designed for surface mount applications with outer shroud contacts and gold plating. This component belongs to the P8 series and features a 0.031" (0.80mm) pitch configuration across 2 rows.

The AXN450330P is classified as obsolete. Identifying equivalent and substitute parts is necessary to maintain design continuity, ensure supply chain availability, and support ongoing production or repair requirements for systems utilizing this connector.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of rectangular connector headers is determined by compatibility across the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type & Contact Configuration: Both the main part and substitute must be header connectors with outer shroud contacts to ensure mechanical and electrical compatibility with mating receptacles.
• Number of Positions & Rows: The 50-position, 2-row configuration must be maintained to preserve circuit connectivity and board layout compatibility.
• Mounting Type: Surface mount technology must be consistent to support existing PCB assembly processes.
• Contact Finish: Gold plating ensures equivalent electrical performance and corrosion resistance.
• Manufacturer & Series Consistency: Parts from the same manufacturer (Panasonic Electric Works) provide design continuity and reliability assurance.

The substitute part AXK6S50437YG shares the same connector type, position count, row configuration, mounting method, and contact finish. However, it operates at a different pitch (0.020" vs. 0.031") and belongs to a different series (P5KS vs. P8), which affects physical dimensions and board layout requirements.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The AXN450330P is obsolete, making AXK6S50437YG the available alternative from Panasonic Electric Works. The substitute part maintains functional equivalence in connector type, position count, row configuration, and contact finish.

The primary design consideration is the pitch difference: AXK6S50437YG operates at 0.020" (0.50mm) pitch compared to the original 0.031" (0.80mm). This results in a more compact footprint and different board layout requirements. The substitute also exhibits increased height above board (0.130" vs. 0.107") and different mated stacking heights (4mm, 4.5mm, 7mm vs. 3mm, 4.6mm, 6mm).

AXK6S50437YG carries active product status and RoHS compliance certification, providing long-term supply assurance and regulatory alignment. Both parts maintain MSL 1 rating, indicating no moisture sensitivity constraints during storage or handling.

Selection of AXK6S50437YG requires PCB redesign to accommodate the finer pitch and modified height profile. Direct mechanical substitution without layout modification is not feasible.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can AXK6S50437YG be used as a direct drop-in replacement for AXN450330P?

A: No. While both connectors share the same position count, row configuration, and contact finish, the pitch difference (0.020" vs. 0.031") and height variations require PCB redesign. Direct substitution without layout modification will result in mechanical misalignment.

Q: What are the key differences between these two connector headers?

A: The primary differences are pitch (0.020" vs. 0.031"), height above board (0.130" vs. 0.107"), and mated stacking heights. AXK6S50437YG also features RoHS compliance and active product status, whereas AXN450330P is obsolete.

Q: Are both connectors compatible with the same mating receptacles?

A: No. The pitch difference means each connector requires its corresponding mating receptacle. Connectors with different pitches are not mechanically or electrically compatible with each other's mating components.

Q: What is the packaging difference between these parts?

A: AXN450330P packaging is not specified in available data. AXK6S50437YG is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format, standard for high-volume surface mount assembly.

Q: Does AXK6S50437YG meet RoHS requirements?

A: Yes. AXK6S50437YG is RoHS compliant. RoHS status for AXN450330P is not specified in available documentation.

Q: Are there inventory considerations for these parts?

A: AXN450330P has 1086 pieces in stock as new original inventory. AXK6S50437YG has 3080 pieces available in Tape & Reel packaging. Availability of AXN450330P may be limited due to obsolete status.
