Package: Through Hole, Right AngleHCTLInterconnectsNumber of Positions: 4Pitch: 2.0 mmMounting Type: Right AngleCurrent Rating: 2 AVoltage Rating: 250 V

The HCTL HC-HY-4AWT is a 4-pin, 2.0mm pitch, right-angle through-hole male header rated for 2A and 250V. Several potential alternatives exist with similar form factors and electrical ratings.

AI replacement insight

Package risklow

Key dimensions match, but full mechanical drawing verification is required.

Electrical risklow

Ratings match or exceed the target, posing minimal electrical risk.

Can it be replaced directly?

Direct replacement for HC-HY-4AWT should use only Datasheet verified or Strong match candidates; many approved options still require engineering review.

Best replacement path

CJT A2008WR-4P appears to be a strong candidate, offering a higher current rating in the same package. Megastar ZX-HY2.0-4PWZ is also a strong match with identical ratings. Both require datasheet verification for pinout dimensions.

Main risk

The primary risk is mechanical incompatibility. While key parameters match, slight differences in housing dimensions or pin lengths could affect PCB fit or mating.
