Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the AOFD120N-R is based on the following criteria:

• Manufacturer Consistency: IDEC as the original manufacturer
• Form Factor: 30mm pushbutton switch configuration
• Electrical Compliance: ROHS3 compliance maintained
• Moisture Sensitivity: MSL 1 (Unlimited) rating preserved
• Regulatory Classification: EAR99 export control classification
• Tariff Classification: HTSUS 8536.50.9035 alignment

The substitute part AOFD120NUR shares the same base product number (AOFD120) and maintains all critical compliance and environmental parameters, making it a direct functional equivalent.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The AOFD120NUR is the direct substitute for the obsolete AOFD120N-R. Selection is based on:

• Product Status Alignment: AOFD120NUR maintains active product status, ensuring continued availability and supply chain reliability
• Compliance Preservation: Both parts maintain identical ROHS3 compliance and EAR99 classification
• Environmental Rating: Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited) is preserved, indicating no moisture sensitivity constraints
• Regulatory Consistency: Tariff classification remains unchanged at HTSUS 8536.50.9035

The substitute part is suitable for direct replacement in applications where the AOFD120N-R was originally specified.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can AOFD120NUR be used as a direct replacement for AOFD120N-R?

A: Yes. Both parts share the same base product number (AOFD120), maintain identical RoHS3 compliance, MSL rating, and regulatory classifications. The AOFD120NUR is an active product variant of the same component family.

Q: What is the difference between AOFD120N-R and AOFD120NUR?

A: The primary difference is product status: AOFD120N-R is obsolete, while AOFD120NUR is active. The AOFD120NUR includes a specific configuration designation (2NO Red, indicating 2 normally open contacts with red button). Both maintain equivalent electrical and environmental specifications.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: Yes. AOFD120N-R packaging is unspecified, while AOFD120NUR is supplied in Bulk packaging. Packaging format should be confirmed based on application requirements and procurement specifications.

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both AOFD120N-R and AOFD120NUR are ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1 (Unlimited) rating and EAR99 export classification, ensuring equivalent regulatory compliance.

Q: Why is AOFD120N-R listed as obsolete?

A: Obsolete status indicates the part is no longer in active production. The AOFD120NUR represents the current active equivalent within the AOFD120 product family and should be used for new designs and replacements.
