Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the AXN480330P is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type: Header with outer shroud contacts (functional requirement)
• Number of Positions: 80 positions (electrical requirement)
• Number of Rows: 2 rows (physical layout requirement)
• Mounting Type: Surface mount (assembly requirement)
• Contact Finish: Gold plating (electrical performance requirement)
• Manufacturer: Panasonic Electric Works (supply chain consistency)

The substitute part AXK6S80437YG maintains compatibility across these core parameters. However, the substitute introduces differences in pitch specification (0.020" vs. 0.031"), series designation (P5KS vs. P8), and mated stacking heights, which represent design variations within the same functional category. These differences require engineering evaluation for specific application contexts.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The AXK6S80437YG serves as an active substitute for the obsolete AXN480330P within the Panasonic Electric Works rectangular connector portfolio. Both parts share identical position count, row configuration, mounting methodology, and contact finish specifications. The substitute part carries active product status and RoHS compliance certification, providing supply chain continuity and regulatory alignment.

The pitch differential (0.031" to 0.020") and corresponding height variations represent design evolution within the product family. The substitute's increased height above board (0.130" vs. 0.107") and modified mated stacking heights (4mm, 4.5mm, 7mm vs. 3mm, 4.6mm, 6mm) necessitate PCB layout and mechanical clearance assessment for specific applications.

Both parts maintain identical MSL 1 rating and EAR99 export classification, ensuring equivalent environmental and regulatory handling requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can AXK6S80437YG directly replace AXN480330P in existing designs?

A: Both parts maintain 80 positions, 2-row configuration, surface mount assembly, and gold contact finish. However, the pitch change from 0.031" to 0.020" and height differential require PCB layout verification. Direct mechanical substitution is not guaranteed without design review.

Q: What is the significance of the pitch difference between these parts?

A: Pitch defines the center-to-center spacing between contact positions. The AXN480330P uses 0.031" (0.80mm) pitch, while the AXK6S80437YG uses 0.020" (0.50mm) pitch. This difference affects PCB footprint design and cannot be accommodated through simple component swapping.

Q: Why is the AXN480330P obsolete?

A: Product obsolescence reflects manufacturer discontinuation decisions. The AXK6S80437YG represents the active equivalent within Panasonic's current connector lineup, offering improved compliance status through RoHS certification.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: The AXN480330P packaging is not specified in available documentation. The AXK6S80437YG is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format, standard for high-volume surface mount assembly operations.

Q: Do both parts meet the same environmental and regulatory requirements?

A: Both parts carry MSL 1 (unlimited) rating and EAR99 export classification. The AXK6S80437YG additionally carries RoHS compliance certification, providing enhanced regulatory alignment for current manufacturing standards.
