Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the AXN460330S is constrained by the following critical parameters that must remain functionally equivalent:

• Connector Type: Header with outer shroud contacts (maintains mechanical and electrical interface compatibility)
• Number of Positions: 60 positions (required for pin count matching)
• Number of Rows: 2 rows (maintains contact arrangement)
• Mounting Type: Surface mount (ensures PCB assembly compatibility)
• Contact Finish: Gold (maintains electrical performance and corrosion resistance)
• Manufacturer: Panasonic Electric Works (ensures design validation and quality standards)

The substitute part AXK6S60447YG shares these core functional parameters. However, it operates at a different pitch specification (0.020" versus 0.031"), which represents a fundamental geometric difference. This pitch variation affects PCB footprint design, mating interface dimensions, and overall connector envelope. Substitution at the pitch level requires PCB redesign and mechanical re-validation.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The AXK6S60447YG is an active product from Panasonic Electric Works with current manufacturing support and ROHS3 compliance certification. Selection of this substitute requires evaluation of the following factors:

Pitch Compatibility: The AXK6S60447YG operates at 0.020" (0.50mm) pitch compared to the AXN460330S at 0.031" (0.80mm). This geometric difference necessitates PCB footprint modification and connector interface redesign. Direct pin-for-pin substitution on existing PCB layouts is not possible.

Height Envelope: The AXK6S60447YG has a height above board of 0.130" (3.30mm) versus 0.107" (2.72mm) for the AXN460330S. Mated stacking heights also increase proportionally (4mm, 4.5mm, 7mm versus 3mm, 4.6mm, 6mm). Clearance verification is required for applications with height constraints.

Compliance Status: The AXK6S60447YG carries ROHS3 compliance certification, supporting modern regulatory requirements. The AXN460330S status in this regard is not specified.

Supply Availability: The AXK6S60447YG has 2975 units in current inventory with active product status, ensuring long-term supply continuity compared to the obsolete AXN460330S.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the AXK6S60447YG be used as a direct replacement on existing PCBs designed for the AXN460330S?

A: No. The pitch difference (0.020" versus 0.031") creates incompatible contact spacing. PCB footprint redesign is required, along with mechanical re-validation of the connector interface and clearance envelope.

Q: What is the primary difference between these two parts?

A: The primary difference is pitch specification. The AXN460330S uses 0.031" (0.80mm) pitch, while the AXK6S60447YG uses 0.020" (0.50mm) pitch. This affects all geometric dimensions, including height above board and mated stacking heights.

Q: Are both parts manufactured by the same company?

A: Yes. Both the AXN460330S and AXK6S60447YG are manufactured by Panasonic Electric Works, ensuring consistent design standards and quality protocols.

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

A: The AXK6S60447YG is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging, suitable for automated assembly processes.

Q: Does the AXK6S60447YG meet modern environmental compliance standards?

A: Yes. The AXK6S60447YG is ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current regulatory requirements for electronic components.

Q: What moisture sensitivity level applies to both parts?

A: Both parts carry MSL 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions during storage or handling.
