AXN480C330S Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The AXN480C330S is an 80-position 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 production and maintenance applications. The part operates within the rectangular connectors category and is suitable for applications requiring high-density interconnection with board guide features.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the AXN480C330S is based on the following critical parameters that must align for functional compatibility:

• Connector Type: Header with outer shroud contacts (maintains mechanical and electrical interface compatibility)
• Number of Positions: 80 positions (ensures pin count compatibility)
• Number of Rows: 2 rows (maintains contact arrangement)
• Mounting Type: Surface mount (preserves assembly process compatibility)
• Contact Finish: Gold plating (ensures electrical performance and corrosion resistance)
• Manufacturer: Panasonic Electric Works (maintains design lineage and quality standards)

The identified substitute part AXK6S80447YG meets these core functional requirements while offering active product status and improved availability. However, this substitute introduces a pitch change from 0.031" (0.80mm) to 0.020" (0.50mm), which represents a dimensional modification requiring design review for PCB layout compatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The AXK6S80447YG serves as an active substitute for the obsolete AXN480C330S within the Panasonic Electric Works rectangular connector portfolio. Both parts share identical connector type, position count, row configuration, mounting methodology, and contact finish specifications. The substitute part offers ROHS3 compliance and Tape & Reel packaging, supporting modern manufacturing and environmental compliance requirements.

The primary design consideration is the pitch modification from 0.031" (0.80mm) to 0.020" (0.50mm). This change requires PCB layout redesign to accommodate the increased contact density. Additionally, the height above board increases from 0.107" (2.72mm) to 0.130" (3.30mm), and mated stacking heights shift from 3mm/4.6mm/6mm to 4mm/4.5mm/7mm ranges. These dimensional changes necessitate mechanical clearance validation within the target application.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can AXK6S80447YG be used as a direct drop-in replacement for AXN480C330S?

A: No. While both parts maintain 80-position header configuration with outer shroud contacts and gold finish, the pitch change from 0.031" (0.80mm) to 0.020" (0.50mm) requires PCB redesign. Direct substitution without layout modification will result in contact misalignment.

Q: What are the key compatibility factors for this connector family?

A: Compatibility is determined by connector type (header with outer shroud), position count (80), row arrangement (2 rows), mounting method (surface mount), and contact finish (gold). Pitch and height parameters are secondary considerations that affect mechanical fit and PCB layout.

Q: Does the substitute part meet current environmental standards?

A: Yes. AXK6S80447YG is ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current environmental regulations. The original AXN480C330S compliance status is not specified in available documentation.

Q: What packaging formats are available for the substitute part?

A: AXK6S80447YG is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format, supporting automated assembly processes. Original packaging for AXN480C330S is not specified.

Q: Are there inventory considerations between these parts?

A: AXN480C330S has 922 pieces in stock as new original inventory. AXK6S80447YG has 5915 pieces available, providing significantly higher availability for new designs and production requirements.
