Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the ZX62D-AB-5P8 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Connector Type: USB - micro AB (5-position receptacle)
Specifications: USB 2.0 compliance
Mounting Type: Surface Mount, Right Angle with Through Hole capability
Mounting Feature: Bottom Mount, Horizontal orientation
Termination: Solder
Operating Temperature Range: -30°C ~ 85°C
Current Rating: Minimum 1A per Contact
Voltage Rating: 30VAC
Mating Cycles: 10,000 minimum
Shielding: Shielded construction
Contact Finish: Gold
Shell Material: Steel, Stainless
Flammability: UL94 V-0

Two substitute parts meet these criteria: ZX62D-AB-5P8(30) from Hirose Electric Co Ltd and USB3090-30-A from GCT. Both maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications while differing in product status and packaging options.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

ZX62D-AB-5P8(30) is the direct parametric equivalent from Hirose Electric Co Ltd. This part maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications while offering active product status and ROHS3 compliance. The primary distinction is packaging format: ZX62D-AB-5P8(30) is supplied in Cut Tape (CT), whereas the original part had unspecified packaging.

USB3090-30-A from GCT provides an alternative from a different manufacturer. This part meets all critical substitution parameters and offers enhanced current rating capability (1A, 1.8A versus 1A per contact). USB3090-30-A is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) and Digi-Reel® packaging options. The MSL rating differs (Not Applicable versus 1 Unlimited), reflecting different moisture sensitivity classifications.

Both substitute parts are active products with ROHS3 compliance, making them suitable for new designs and ongoing production support where the obsolete ZX62D-AB-5P8 is no longer available.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can ZX62D-AB-5P8(30) be used as a direct replacement for ZX62D-AB-5P8?

A: Yes. ZX62D-AB-5P8(30) is a parametric equivalent with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The primary difference is product status (Active versus Obsolete) and packaging format (Cut Tape versus unspecified). Both parts are manufactured by Hirose Electric Co Ltd and maintain the same connector type, contact configuration, mounting orientation, and performance ratings.

Q: What are the differences between the two substitute parts?

A: ZX62D-AB-5P8(30) and USB3090-30-A differ in manufacturer (Hirose versus GCT), current rating specification (1A per contact versus 1A, 1.8A), and MSL classification (1 Unlimited versus Not Applicable). Both meet the core substitution criteria for USB 2.0 micro AB 5-position receptacle connectors with identical mounting and termination specifications.

Q: Are packaging options interchangeable between substitute parts?

A: No. ZX62D-AB-5P8(30) is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) format. USB3090-30-A is available in Cut Tape (CT) and Digi-Reel® formats. Component procurement and assembly processes must account for the specific packaging format selected for each part.

Q: Do both substitute parts meet compliance requirements?

A: Yes. Both ZX62D-AB-5P8(30) and USB3090-30-A are ROHS3 compliant and carry UL94 V-0 flammability ratings. Both are classified as REACH Unaffected and carry EAR99 ECCN designation.

Q: What is the inventory status for substitute parts?

A: ZX62D-AB-5P8(30) has 1,980 pieces in stock. USB3090-30-A has 2,300 pieces in stock. Both are available as new original components.
