AXN480430P Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The AXN480430P is an 80-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 with a 2-row layout.

The AXN480430P is classified as obsolete. Identifying equivalent and substitute parts is necessary to support ongoing production requirements, maintenance operations, and design updates where this connector is specified.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the AXN480430P is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Number of Positions: Must be 80 to maintain electrical connectivity requirements
• Number of Rows: Must be 2 to preserve board layout compatibility
• Connector Type: Must be Header with Outer Shroud Contacts for mechanical fit
• Mounting Type: Must be Surface Mount for PCB assembly compatibility
• Contact Finish: Must be Gold for electrical performance and reliability
• Mated Stacking Heights: Must support 4mm, 4.5mm, and 7mm configurations for mating flexibility

The substitute part AXK6S80437YG meets the core functional requirements of 80 positions, 2-row configuration, header type with outer shroud contacts, surface mount capability, and gold contact finish. However, this substitute operates at a different pitch specification (0.020" versus 0.031"), which represents a significant geometric difference. The substitute also exhibits a reduced height above board (0.130" versus 0.147"), indicating a different mechanical profile.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The AXK6S80437YG is an active product from the same manufacturer with current production status and RoHS compliance certification. This substitute maintains functional equivalence in connector type, position count, row configuration, mounting method, and contact material.

The primary design consideration is the pitch difference: AXK6S80437YG operates at 0.020" (0.50mm) pitch compared to the original 0.031" (0.80mm) pitch. This represents a higher-density contact arrangement and requires PCB layout modification. The reduced height above board (0.130" versus 0.147") must be evaluated against available clearance in the target application.

Selection of AXK6S80437YG is appropriate for new designs or redesigns where PCB layout can accommodate the finer pitch specification. For applications requiring direct mechanical and electrical compatibility without PCB modification, alternative solutions from the same manufacturer should be evaluated.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can AXK6S80437YG be used as a direct replacement for AXN480430P without PCB modification?

A: No. The pitch difference (0.020" versus 0.031") requires PCB layout changes. The contact spacing on the PCB must be redesigned to accommodate the finer pitch of the substitute part.

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

A: The AXK6S80437YG has a height above board of 0.130" compared to 0.147" for the AXN480430P. This 0.017" reduction must be verified against available clearance in the application to ensure no interference with adjacent components or enclosure constraints.

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

A: Both parts support identical mated stacking heights of 4mm, 4.5mm, and 7mm, providing flexibility in mating connector selection.

Q: What is the packaging difference between these parts?

A: The AXN480430P packaging is not specified in available data. The AXK6S80437YG is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format, which is standard for surface mount production environments.

Q: Does RoHS compliance affect substitution decisions?

A: The AXK6S80437YG is RoHS Compliant. If the application requires RoHS certification, this substitute meets that requirement. The RoHS status of the original AXN480430P is not specified.

Q: Are both parts from the same manufacturer?

A: Yes. Both AXN480430P and AXK6S80437YG are manufactured by Panasonic Electric Works, ensuring consistent quality standards and design philosophy.
