Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the KUSBVX-SMT-CS-W30TRC is determined by strict equivalence across the following parameters:

• Connector Type & Specification: USB-C receptacle with USB 3.2 Gen 2 support
• Contact Configuration: 24-position contact arrangement
• Mounting Characteristics: Surface mount with through-hole capability, vertical orientation
• Electrical Performance: 1A current rating, 30VAC voltage rating, 10,000 mating cycles
• Physical Properties: Shielded construction, gold contact finish, steel/stainless shell material
• Environmental Compliance: UL94 V-0 flammability rating, operating range -55°C to 85°C

The KUSBVX-SMT-CS-B30TRC maintains all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. The only variation is the insulation color (Black vs. White), which does not affect functional compatibility or electrical performance.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the KUSBVX-SMT-CS-W30TRC and KUSBVX-SMT-CS-B30TRC are active products with equivalent electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection between these parts should be based on:

RoHS Compliance Level: The KUSBVX-SMT-CS-B30TRC carries ROHS3 Compliant certification, while the KUSBVX-SMT-CS-W30TRC is RoHS Compliant. For applications requiring ROHS3 compliance, the B30TRC variant is the appropriate selection.

Insulation Color: The W30TRC features white insulation; the B30TRC features black insulation. This distinction is cosmetic and does not affect electrical performance or functional compatibility.

Supply Availability: The KUSBVX-SMT-CS-B30TRC has significantly higher inventory availability (22,950 Pcs) compared to the W30TRC (799 Pcs), which may influence procurement decisions for high-volume applications.

Both parts maintain identical electrical ratings, environmental specifications, and mechanical mounting characteristics, ensuring direct functional interchangeability within the same circuit design.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the KUSBVX-SMT-CS-B30TRC be used as a direct replacement for the KUSBVX-SMT-CS-W30TRC?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical electrical specifications (USB 3.2 Gen 2, 1A current rating, 30VAC voltage rating), contact configuration (24-position receptacle), mounting characteristics (surface mount with through-hole, vertical orientation), and environmental ratings (-55°C to 85°C operating range, 10,000 mating cycles). The only difference is insulation color (Black vs. White), which does not affect functional compatibility.

Q: What are the critical parameters that define substitution eligibility?

A: Substitution is valid when the following parameters remain constant: USB Type-C receptacle configuration, 24-contact arrangement, USB 3.2 Gen 2 specification compliance, 1A current rating, 30VAC voltage rating, shielded construction, vertical mounting orientation, and surface mount/through-hole capability. Variations in insulation color, RoHS certification level, and inventory do not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility.

Q: Does the difference in RoHS certification (RoHS Compliant vs. ROHS3 Compliant) affect part selection?

A: RoHS certification level is a regulatory compliance attribute. If your application or supply chain requires ROHS3 Compliant certification specifically, the KUSBVX-SMT-CS-B30TRC must be selected. Both certifications indicate hazardous substance restrictions, but ROHS3 represents a more recent regulatory standard. Verify your application requirements before final part selection.

Q: Are there any packaging or handling differences between these parts?

A: Both parts are supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging with Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited), indicating no special moisture handling requirements. Packaging format and handling procedures are equivalent.

Q: What is the mating cycle rating, and why is it important?

A: Both connectors are rated for 10,000 mating cycles, representing the number of times the connector can be mated and unmated before performance degradation. This specification is identical across both parts and suitable for standard industrial and consumer applications.
