Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the ALFD224620DN-G is based on the following critical parameters that must remain consistent:

• Manufacturer: IDEC (same manufacturer ensures design compatibility)
• Product Type: Pushbutton Switch, 30MM form factor
• RoHS Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant (regulatory requirement match)
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited) (environmental tolerance equivalence)
• Tariff Classification: HTSUS 8536.50.9035 (same product category)

The substitute part ALFD224620DNUG maintains all critical parameters while transitioning from obsolete to active product status. Both parts share the same base product number (ALFD224620), confirming functional and mechanical compatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The ALFD224620DNUG is the direct equivalent substitute for the obsolete ALFD224620DN-G. Selection is based on:

• Regulatory Compliance: Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance, satisfying current environmental standards
• Product Status: The substitute is active and currently in production, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity
• Certification Alignment: Identical ECCN and HTSUS classifications confirm equivalent export control and tariff treatment
• Environmental Tolerance: Matching MSL ratings ensure equivalent performance in moisture-sensitive applications

The transition from the obsolete part to the active substitute presents no technical barriers to implementation.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What makes ALFD224620DNUG a valid substitute for ALFD224620DN-G?

A: Both parts are manufactured by IDEC, share the same base product number (ALFD224620), maintain identical RoHS3 compliance, and possess equivalent moisture sensitivity ratings. The substitute is the active production equivalent of the obsolete original part.

Q: Are there mechanical compatibility concerns when switching to ALFD224620DNUG?

A: No. Both parts are 30MM pushbutton switches with identical form factors and environmental ratings. Mechanical mounting and electrical interface compatibility is maintained.

Q: Does the packaging difference affect component selection?

A: Packaging format (standard versus bulk) does not affect functional or mechanical compatibility. Selection should be based on procurement quantity requirements and inventory management practices.

Q: What is the significance of the identical HTSUS and ECCN codes?

A: Matching tariff and export control classifications confirm that both parts occupy the same product category and are subject to identical regulatory treatment for import, export, and trade purposes.

Q: Why is the original part listed as obsolete?

A: Product obsolescence typically reflects manufacturer discontinuation decisions. The active substitute ALFD224620DNUG provides equivalent functionality and ensures continued availability for system maintenance and new applications.
