AYF534065 FPC Connector - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The AYF534065 is a 40-position FPC (Flat Flexible) connector manufactured by Panasonic Electric Works, designed for surface mount, right-angle applications with 0.5mm pitch contacts. This connector features flip lock and backlock locking mechanisms, gold-plated copper alloy contacts, and LCP housing material rated for 50V and 0.5A per contact.

The main part (AYF534065) is currently in Active product status with 1096 pieces in stock. Due to packaging availability and inventory considerations, substitute parts with identical electrical and mechanical specifications may be required for procurement flexibility.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the AYF534065 is based on strict electrical and mechanical parameter matching within the Y5BW series. The substitute part AYF534065T maintains identical specifications across all critical parameters:

Key Parameters for Substitution Validity:

• Number of Positions: 40
• Pitch: 0.020" (0.50mm)
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount, Right Angle
• Connector/Contact Type: Contacts, Top and Bottom
• Voltage Rating: 50V
• Current Rating: 0.5A per Contact
• Operating Temperature: -55°C ~ 85°C
• FFC, FCB Thickness: 0.30mm
• Height Above Board: 0.039" (1.00mm)
• Locking Feature: Flip Lock, Backlock
• Contact Material: Copper Alloy
• Contact Finish: Gold
• Housing Material: Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP)
• Termination: Solder
• RoHS Status: RoHS Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)

The primary difference between the main part and substitute is packaging format: AYF534065 is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format, while AYF534065T is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) & Digi-Reel® format.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The AYF534065T serves as a direct parametric equivalent to the AYF534065 for all electrical and mechanical applications. Both parts are RoHS compliant and carry identical certifications (UL94 V-0 flammability rating, ECCN EAR99, HTSUS 8536.69.4051).

Selection between these parts should be based on:

1. Packaging Requirements: AYF534065 is supplied in Tape & Reel format suitable for automated assembly lines. AYF534065T is supplied in Cut Tape & Digi-Reel® format, appropriate for lower-volume or manual assembly operations.

2. Product Status: AYF534065 maintains Active status with current manufacturing support. AYF534065T is marked Obsolete, indicating no further production or design changes.

3. Inventory Availability: AYF534065T has significantly higher inventory (20480 pieces) compared to AYF534065 (1096 pieces), which may influence procurement decisions for high-volume applications.

Both parts are functionally interchangeable in circuit design and PCB layout applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can AYF534065T be used as a direct replacement for AYF534065?

A: Yes. Both parts are parametrically identical across all electrical and mechanical specifications. The primary difference is packaging format (Tape & Reel versus Cut Tape & Digi-Reel®).

Q: What is the difference between Tape & Reel and Cut Tape & Digi-Reel® packaging?

A: Tape & Reel (TR) packaging is optimized for high-speed automated pick-and-place assembly equipment. Cut Tape (CT) & Digi-Reel® packaging is suitable for lower-volume production, manual assembly, or applications requiring smaller quantities per order.

Q: Are there any electrical performance differences between AYF534065 and AYF534065T?

A: No. Both parts have identical voltage ratings (50V), current ratings (0.5A per contact), operating temperature ranges (-55°C ~ 85°C), and all other electrical specifications.

Q: Does the Obsolete status of AYF534065T affect its use in new designs?

A: The Obsolete designation indicates that AYF534065T is no longer in active production. For new designs, AYF534065 (Active status) is the recommended choice. AYF534065T may be used only if existing inventory is available and no future production is required.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both AYF534065 and AYF534065T are RoHS compliant with UL94 V-0 flammability rating.

Q: What is the Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) for these connectors?

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