Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The 78250JVC qualifies as a direct substitute for the 78250MVC based on the following critical parameters:

  • Inductance: Both parts specify 2 mH, ensuring equivalent magnetic performance
  • Isolation Voltage Rating: Both rated for 4 kVDC isolation
  • Mounting Type: Both are surface mount components with identical package dimensions (0.354" L x 0.375" W x 0.260" H)
  • Application Compatibility: Both are designated for use with MAX250 and MAX251 modules
  • Regulatory Compliance: Both meet ROHS3 and REACH requirements
  • Moisture Sensitivity: Both classified as MSL 1 (Unlimited)

The primary distinction is product status: the 78250JVC is Active, while the 78250MVC is Not For New Designs. The 78250JVC represents the current production equivalent within the 78250 series.
