Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the FX6-20S-0.8SV2 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Connector type: Receptacle with center strip contacts
• Number of positions: 20
• Pitch: 0.031" (0.80mm)
• Number of rows: 2
• Mounting type: Surface mount
• Contact finish: Gold
• Height above board: 0.236" (6.00mm)
• Mated stacking heights: 7mm, 8mm, 9mm
• Features: Board guide
• Base product number: FX6

The identified substitute part maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications while differing in product status and compliance classification. Substitution is valid where these parameters remain constant across the component selection.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The FX6-20S-0.8SV2(71) is the direct substitute for the obsolete FX6-20S-0.8SV2. Both parts are manufactured by Hirose Electric Co Ltd and maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters including connector type, position count, pitch, mounting configuration, and contact finish.

The primary distinction between these parts is product status and regulatory compliance. The FX6-20S-0.8SV2(71) carries active product status and ROHS3 compliance, whereas the original part is classified as obsolete and RoHS non-compliant. For new designs or ongoing procurement requiring regulatory compliance, the FX6-20S-0.8SV2(71) is the appropriate selection. The substitute part is available in tube packaging and maintains full compatibility with applications designed for the original part number.
