Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The AOFD202NUS qualifies as a direct substitute based on the following alignment of critical parameters:

• Manufacturer: Both parts are manufactured by IDEC
• Form factor: Both are 30mm pushbutton switches
• Base product family: Both share the AOFD202 base product number
• RoHS compliance: Both meet ROHS3 Compliant standards
• Moisture sensitivity: Both rated at MSL 1 (Unlimited)
• Trade classification: Both assigned identical HTSUS code 8536.50.9035
• Export classification: Both classified as EAR99

The AOFD202NUS represents an active product variant within the same product family, providing functional equivalence for the obsolete AOFD202N-S.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The AOFD202NUS is the designated substitute for the obsolete AOFD202N-S. Selection is based on:

• Active product status: The AOFD202NUS maintains current manufacturing and supply chain support
• Regulatory compliance: Both parts maintain identical ROHS3 Compliant certification
• Classification alignment: Matching ECCN and HTSUS codes confirm equivalent regulatory treatment
• Manufacturer continuity: Both components are produced by IDEC within the same product family

The transition from AOFD202N-S to AOFD202NUS does not introduce compliance or classification changes.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can AOFD202NUS directly replace AOFD202N-S in existing applications?

A: Yes. Both components share identical RoHS compliance status, moisture sensitivity ratings, and trade classifications. The AOFD202NUS is the active equivalent within the AOFD202 product family.

Q: What is the difference between packaging designations for these parts?

A: The AOFD202N-S packaging is unspecified in available documentation. The AOFD202NUS is supplied in bulk packaging. Packaging format does not affect functional or electrical equivalence.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between these parts?

A: No. Both parts maintain ROHS3 Compliant status, MSL 1 (Unlimited) rating, and EAR99 export classification. No compliance gaps exist between the obsolete and active variants.

Q: Why is AOFD202N-S classified as obsolete?

A: Product obsolescence reflects manufacturing discontinuation. The AOFD202NUS represents the current active production variant within the same product family and serves as the direct replacement.
