AXN480430S Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The AXN480430S 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 across 2 rows.

The AXN480430S 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 eligibility for the AXN480430S 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 and reliability)
• Mated Stacking Heights: Compatibility with 4mm, 4.5mm, or 7mm stacking heights (mechanical interface)

The AXK6S80437YG qualifies as a substitute based on matching connector type, position count, row configuration, mounting method, contact finish, and mated stacking height compatibility. However, this substitute operates at a different pitch specification (0.020" versus 0.031"), which represents a significant geometric difference requiring careful evaluation during integration.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The AXK6S80437YG is an active product with current manufacturing support and RoHS compliance certification, providing supply chain continuity for the obsolete AXN480430S. Both components share identical connector architecture, position count, row configuration, mounting methodology, and contact finish specifications.

The primary distinction between these parts is pitch specification: the AXN480430S operates at 0.031" (0.80mm) pitch, while the AXK6S80437YG operates at 0.020" (0.50mm) pitch. This difference directly affects physical footprint dimensions and PCB layout requirements. The substitute also exhibits a reduced height above board (0.130" versus 0.147"), which may impact clearance considerations in constrained assembly environments.

Selection of the AXK6S80437YG requires verification that the receiving PCB design accommodates the finer pitch specification and reduced height profile. Mated stacking height compatibility (4mm, 4.5mm, 7mm) is maintained across both parts.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the AXK6S80437YG directly replace the AXN480430S without PCB modification?

A: Direct replacement without PCB modification is not possible. The AXK6S80437YG operates at 0.020" (0.50mm) pitch compared to the AXN480430S at 0.031" (0.80mm) pitch. This difference requires PCB layout redesign to accommodate the finer contact spacing. Additionally, the reduced height above board (0.130" versus 0.147") may affect clearance in existing assemblies.

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

A: No. The different pitch specifications mean these parts require different mating connectors. The AXN480430S mates with connectors designed for 0.031" (0.80mm) pitch, while the AXK6S80437YG requires connectors designed for 0.020" (0.50mm) pitch. Mating connector compatibility must be verified independently.

Q: What is the packaging difference between these parts?

A: The AXN480430S packaging specification is not provided in the available data. The AXK6S80437YG is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format, which is standard for high-volume surface mount production.

Q: Are both parts moisture sensitive?

A: No. Both parts carry Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) 1 classification, which indicates unlimited moisture tolerance. Standard handling procedures apply without special moisture control requirements.

Q: Does the AXK6S80437YG meet RoHS compliance requirements?

A: Yes. The AXK6S80437YG is certified RoHS compliant. RoHS compliance status for the AXN480430S is not specified in the available data.

Q: Are the mated stacking heights identical between both parts?

A: Yes. Both the AXN480430S and AXK6S80437YG support identical mated stacking heights of 4mm, 4.5mm, and 7mm, providing compatibility with connector systems designed for these stack configurations.
