Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the ZX62R-AB-5P is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type: USB - micro AB (5-position receptacle)
• Gender: Receptacle
• Specifications: USB 2.0 compliance
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount, Right Angle
• Mounting Feature: Horizontal, Reverse Mount
• Termination: Solder
• Current Rating: 1.8A minimum
• Voltage Rating: 30VAC minimum
• Operating Temperature: -30°C to 85°C
• Mating Cycles: 10000 minimum
• Shielding: Shielded configuration
• Contact Finish: Gold plating
• Material Flammability: UL94 V-0

The substitute part ZX62R-AB-5P(30) maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications while differing only in packaging configuration (Tape & Reel) and product status (Last Time Buy versus Obsolete).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The ZX62R-AB-5P(30) is a direct parametric equivalent to the ZX62R-AB-5P. Both parts are manufactured by Hirose Electric Co Ltd and maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters including USB 2.0 compliance, current rating, voltage rating, operating temperature range, and mating cycle rating.

The primary distinction between these parts is packaging format and product lifecycle status. The ZX62R-AB-5P(30) is supplied in Tape & Reel packaging, which is standard for automated assembly processes, whereas the original part is supplied in bulk packaging. The ZX62R-AB-5P(30) carries Last Time Buy status, indicating extended availability compared to the Obsolete status of the original part.

Both parts meet UL94 V-0 flammability requirements and carry identical compliance certifications (ECCN: EAR99, HTSUS: 8536.69.4040). Selection between these parts should be based on procurement requirements and assembly process compatibility rather than electrical or mechanical performance considerations.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can ZX62R-AB-5P(30) be used as a direct replacement for ZX62R-AB-5P?

A: Yes. The ZX62R-AB-5P(30) is a parametric equivalent with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The only differences are packaging format (Tape & Reel versus bulk) and product lifecycle status.

Q: What is the difference between the packaging formats?

A: ZX62R-AB-5P is supplied in bulk packaging, while ZX62R-AB-5P(30) is supplied in Tape & Reel format. Tape & Reel packaging is optimized for automated pick-and-place assembly processes and is the standard format for high-volume manufacturing.

Q: Are there any compliance or certification differences?

A: No. Both parts carry identical compliance certifications including ECCN: EAR99 and HTSUS: 8536.69.4040. Both meet UL94 V-0 flammability requirements and have Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited).

Q: What does Last Time Buy status mean for ZX62R-AB-5P(30)?

A: Last Time Buy indicates that the manufacturer has announced this as the final production run. This part will remain available for a defined period but will eventually be discontinued. The Obsolete status of ZX62R-AB-5P indicates it has already reached end-of-life.

Q: Are the mechanical mounting characteristics identical?

A: Yes. Both parts feature Surface Mount, Right Angle mounting with Horizontal, Reverse Mount orientation. PCB footprint and mounting hole patterns are identical.

Q: What is the current-carrying capacity?

A: Both parts are rated for 1.8A continuous current at 30VAC maximum voltage, suitable for standard USB 2.0 applications.
