Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The EX80-54S-SH(36) has one manufacturer-recommended substitute: EX80-54S-SH(76). Substitution is valid based on the following criteria:

• Both parts share the same base product number (EX80) and connector designation (EX80-54S-SH)
• Identical electrical and mechanical specifications for rectangular SMD vertical connectors
• Both parts maintain RoHS compliance
• Both parts carry identical MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited)
• Both parts fall under the same ECCN and HTSUS classifications
• The substitute part is active and currently in production, addressing the obsolescence of the original part

The primary distinction is the packaging format: the original part uses standard packaging, while the substitute is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format for automated assembly processes.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The EX80-54S-SH(76) is the direct substitute for the obsolete EX80-54S-SH(36). Both parts are RoHS compliant and carry identical MSL ratings, ensuring compatibility in applications requiring environmental and regulatory compliance. The substitute part is currently in active production status, providing assured long-term availability for procurement and design continuity.

Selection between these parts should be based on packaging requirements: standard packaging for manual assembly or low-volume applications, or Tape & Reel format for automated pick-and-place assembly processes. The electrical and mechanical specifications remain identical across both variants.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
