Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts are classified as parametric equivalents when they maintain identical or compatible values across the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type: USB - mini B
• Number of Contacts: 5 positions
• Gender: Receptacle
• USB Specification: USB 2.0
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount, Right Angle; Through Hole
• Mounting Feature: Horizontal
• Current Rating: 1A
• Voltage Rating: 30V (AC or DC)
• Mating Cycles: 5000
• Shielding: Shielded
• Contact Finish: Gold
• Material Flammability: UL94 V-0
• Termination: Solder

All three substitute parts meet these criteria. Variations in operating temperature range, shell material composition, and packaging format do not affect functional interchangeability in applications where the main part specifications are met.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three substitute parts are functionally equivalent to the UX60SC-MB-5S8(85) based on critical electrical and mechanical parameters. Selection among these options should be based on the following factors:

UX60SC-MB-5S8(80) is a direct Hirose Electric variant with identical specifications and operating temperature range. This part maintains the same manufacturer lineage and is suitable for applications requiring consistency within the Hirose UX series.

KMBX-SMT-5S-S-30TR from Kycon, Inc. extends the operating temperature range to -55°C ~ 85°C, providing broader thermal capability. This part is appropriate for applications requiring enhanced low-temperature performance or wider environmental tolerance.

USB2066-05-RBHM-15-STB-00-01-A from GCT offers the widest operating temperature range (-50°C ~ 85°C) and features brass shell material instead of copper alloy. This part is suitable for applications requiring extended thermal operating margins. The voltage rating specification differs (30VDC versus 30VAC), which is compatible with USB 2.0 applications operating in DC environments.

All substitute parts carry ROHS3 compliance and REACH Unaffected status, meeting current regulatory requirements. Packaging format varies between standard Tape & Reel and Cut Tape with Digi-Reel options, which may influence procurement and assembly workflows.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can UX60SC-MB-5S8(80) be used as a direct replacement for UX60SC-MB-5S8(85)?

A: Yes. Both parts are manufactured by Hirose Electric Co Ltd and share identical electrical and mechanical specifications, including connector type, contact count, USB 2.0 compliance, current rating, voltage rating, mating cycles, and operating temperature range. The parts are interchangeable in design and production.

Q: What is the primary difference between the Hirose UX60SC variants and the Kycon KMBX-SMT-5S-S-30TR?

A: The Kycon part extends the operating temperature range to -55°C ~ 85°C compared to -30°C ~ 75°C for the Hirose variants. All other critical parameters remain equivalent. Selection depends on application thermal requirements.

Q: Is the GCT USB2066-05-RBHM-15-STB-00-01-A compatible with USB 2.0 applications?

A: Yes. The GCT part meets USB 2.0 specification requirements and maintains all critical electrical parameters including 1A current rating and 5000 mating cycles. The voltage rating specification (30VDC) is compatible with USB 2.0 DC power delivery applications.

Q: Does shell material composition affect interchangeability?

A: Shell material (copper alloy versus brass) does not affect functional interchangeability for USB 2.0 receptacle applications. Both materials provide equivalent shielding performance and meet UL94 V-0 flammability requirements. Material selection may influence cost and specific environmental resistance characteristics but does not impact electrical compatibility.

Q: What packaging options are available for these substitute parts?

A: UX60SC-MB-5S8(85), UX60SC-MB-5S8(80), and KMBX-SMT-5S-S-30TR are supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format. USB2066-05-RBHM-15-STB-00-01-A is available in Cut Tape (CT) and Digi-Reel® format. Packaging selection should align with assembly equipment and procurement requirements.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. All substitute parts carry ROHS3 compliance certification and REACH Unaffected status, meeting current regulatory requirements for electronic component manufacturing and distribution.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably in high-temperature applications?

A: The Kycon KMBX-SMT-5S-S-30TR and GCT USB2066-05-RBHM-15-STB-00-01-A support extended operating temperatures up to 85°C, compared to 75°C for the Hirose variants. For applications requiring sustained operation above 75°C, the Kycon or GCT parts are appropriate selections.
