Is there a pin-compatible replacement for A2008WR-S-6P?

No fully verified pin-compatible replacement is available. While several candidates match the basic specifications (6-pin, 2.0mm pitch, SMT, right-angle), their PCB footprints are not confirmed to be identical and they have different electrical ratings. You must verify the layout and accept the parametric downgrades.

What risks should I check before replacing A2008WR-S-6P?

Before replacing A2008WR-S-6P, check three main risks: 1) Electrical: Ensure your application's current draw does not exceed the alternative's lower 2A rating. 2) Mechanical: Verify the PCB footprint and connector dimensions from the datasheet. 3) Thermal: Confirm the alternative's narrower temperature range is acceptable for your operating environment.

A2008WR-S-6P Alternatives, Datasheet & Cross Reference | CJT

Finding a substitute for the A2008WR-S-6P, a 6-pin 2.0mm right-angle SMT header, requires careful review. While alternatives with a similar form factor exist, they typically have lower current and temperature ratings, making them parametric alternatives rather than direct drop-in replacements.

AI replacement insight

Electrical riskhigh

All suitable candidates have a lower current rating (2A vs 3A). Use in a 3A circuit without derating is unsafe.

Package riskmedium

While candidates are SMT right-angle, the exact PCB footprint and mechanical dimensions must be verified against the datasheet to ensure compatibility.

Sourcing riskmedium

The target part has a wider temperature range, suggesting it may be intended for more demanding applications where alternatives might not be suitable.

Can it be replaced directly?

No verified direct drop-in replacement for A2008WR-S-6P has been identified. Several alternatives match the form factor but have lower current and temperature ratings, requiring engineering review.

Best replacement path

Review parametric alternatives like WF-1F200A6P or ZX-PH2.0-WT6P. These match the SMT right-angle form factor but require careful analysis of electrical and thermal derating.

Main risk

The primary risk is electrical overstress due to candidates having a lower current rating (2A vs. 3A), which could lead to overheating and failure.

Recommended alternatives

A potential alternative with the same pitch and form factor, but with a lower current rating and temperature range.
