AXF461500

Designed for automotive electronics, the AXF461500 by Panasonic Electric Works sets new standards for Rectangular Connectors - Arrays, Edge Type, Mezzanine (Board to Board) in vehicle applications. This AEC-Q200 qualified connector delivers unmatched reliability for ADAS systems and in-vehicle networks, featuring enhanced vibration resistance and temperature cycling performance.The automotive-grade Header, Outer Shroud Contacts configuration incorporates redundant contact points that meet LV214 requirements. This failsafe design ensures continuous operation even under extreme vibration conditions.With 6 available configurations, the connector supports evolving automotive architectures. The optimized layout minimizes electromagnetic emissions for CAN FD and Ethernet applications.The 2 row design provides balanced current distribution for 48V mild hybrid systems. This configuration has been tested for 10,000 thermal cycles from -40 C to +125 C.Developed for Surface Mount applications, the connector features anti-corrosion coatings that resist road salt exposure. The mounting system maintains seal integrity under pressure washing conditions.Key Solder Retention address automotive-specific challenges including coolant immersion resistance. The connector body materials are halogen-free and meet GMW3191 flame retardancy requirements.The Gold formulation prevents sulfide formation in exhaust-prone environments. Testing shows 5x better performance than standard finishes in sulfur dioxide exposure tests.Precisely controlled 4.00µin (0.100µm) ensures stable contact resistance over the vehicle's lifetime. This specification exceeds USCAR-2 electrical endurance requirements.The 0.6mm options accommodate various ECU mounting configurations. The design prevents water wicking in under-hood applications.With 0.018" (0.46mm) clearance, the connector allows for conformal coating application in automotive PCBAs. This height has been optimized for automated optical inspection systems.
