AXN460C430P Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The AXN460C430P is a 60-position rectangular connector header manufactured by Panasonic Electric Works, designed for surface mount applications with outer shroud contacts and gold plating. This component is classified as obsolete, making identification of suitable substitute parts essential for ongoing design support and production continuity. The connector features a 0.031" (0.80mm) pitch configuration across 2 rows, with a height above board of 0.146" (3.70mm).

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the AXN460C430P is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type: Header with outer shroud contacts (functional requirement)
• Number of Positions: 60 positions (electrical requirement)
• Number of Rows: 2 rows (physical layout requirement)
• Mounting Type: Surface mount (assembly requirement)
• Contact Finish: Gold plating (electrical performance requirement)
• Mated Stacking Heights: Compatibility with 4mm, 4.5mm, 7mm stacking heights (mechanical requirement)

The substitute part AXK6S60447YG shares the same connector type, position count, row configuration, mounting method, and contact finish. However, it operates at a different pitch specification (0.020" vs. 0.031"), which represents a fundamental change in the connector's physical footprint and electrical characteristics. This difference must be evaluated against specific application requirements.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The AXK6S60447YG is an active product from the same manufacturer, providing long-term availability and supply chain stability compared to the obsolete AXN460C430P. Both parts share identical MSL ratings, ECCN classifications, and HTSUS codes, indicating equivalent regulatory and compliance status.

The primary distinction between these parts is the pitch specification. The AXK6S60447YG operates at 0.020" (0.50mm) pitch versus the 0.031" (0.80mm) pitch of the main part. This difference directly affects the physical footprint on the printed circuit board and the connector's overall dimensions. The substitute part also exhibits a slightly reduced height above board (0.130" versus 0.146"), which may impact clearance considerations in space-constrained applications.

Selection of the AXK6S60447YG requires confirmation that the application's PCB layout, mating connector specifications, and mechanical envelope accommodate the finer pitch and reduced height characteristics of this substitute.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can AXK6S60447YG directly replace AXN460C430P in existing designs?

A: Direct replacement requires PCB layout modification due to the different pitch specification. The AXN460C430P uses 0.031" (0.80mm) pitch, while AXK6S60447YG uses 0.020" (0.50mm) pitch. Existing PCB footprints designed for the main part are not compatible with the substitute without redesign.

Q: Are the mated stacking heights compatible between these parts?

A: Both parts support identical mated stacking heights of 4mm, 4.5mm, and 7mm, ensuring compatibility with mating connectors designed for these specifications.

Q: What is the significance of the height above board difference?

A: The AXN460C430P has a height above board of 0.146" (3.70mm), while the AXK6S60447YG measures 0.130" (3.30mm). This 0.016" (0.40mm) difference may affect clearance calculations in applications with limited vertical space above the connector.

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

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

Q: What is the packaging difference between these parts?

A: The AXN460C430P is supplied in standard packaging, while the AXK6S60447YG is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format, which is typical for active production parts and may affect procurement and assembly processes.

Q: Are there compliance or regulatory differences between these parts?

A: Both parts share identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8536.69.4040) classifications. The AXK6S60447YG carries RoHS3 compliance and REACH Unaffected status, providing additional regulatory documentation for the active substitute part.
