Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the AOFD211N-Y is based on the following critical parameters:

• Manufacturer: IDEC (same manufacturer ensures design and interface compatibility)
• Physical Form Factor: 30mm pushbutton switch
• RoHS Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant (regulatory requirement match)
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited) (environmental tolerance match)
• Export Classification: EAR99 (trade compliance alignment)
• Tariff Classification: HTSUS 8536.50.9035 (commodity code alignment)

The substitute part AOFD211NUY shares all critical parameters with the main part, differing only in product status (Active vs. Obsolete) and packaging configuration (Bulk vs. standard packaging). This active status makes AOFD211NUY the primary substitute for the obsolete AOFD211N-Y.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The AOFD211NUY is the direct substitute for the obsolete AOFD211N-Y based on the following criteria:

• Regulatory Compliance: Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance, satisfying environmental and regulatory requirements.
• Product Status: AOFD211NUY is currently active and available, whereas AOFD211N-Y is obsolete and subject to supply discontinuation.
• Certification Alignment: Both parts share identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8536.50.9035) classifications, ensuring trade compliance consistency.
• Environmental Tolerance: Identical Moisture Sensitivity Level (1 - Unlimited) confirms equivalent performance under environmental conditions.
• Manufacturer Continuity: Both parts are manufactured by IDEC, ensuring design compatibility and interface consistency.

Selection of AOFD211NUY for replacement applications is supported by complete parameter alignment with the obsolete AOFD211N-Y.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can AOFD211NUY be used as a direct replacement for AOFD211N-Y?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical critical parameters including manufacturer (IDEC), form factor (30mm pushbutton switch), RoHS compliance (ROHS3), moisture sensitivity rating (1 - Unlimited), and trade classifications (ECCN EAR99, HTSUS 8536.50.9035). The primary difference is product status: AOFD211NUY is active while AOFD211N-Y is obsolete.

Q: What is the significance of the product status difference?

A: Product status indicates component availability and manufacturer support. The obsolete status of AOFD211N-Y means the manufacturer has discontinued production and support. AOFD211NUY, being active, is currently manufactured and available through authorized distribution channels.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: Yes. AOFD211N-Y uses standard packaging, while AOFD211NUY is supplied in bulk packaging. Bulk packaging does not affect component functionality or electrical characteristics; it reflects order quantity and logistics configuration.

Q: Do both parts meet the same regulatory requirements?

A: Yes. Both AOFD211N-Y and AOFD211NUY are ROHS3 compliant and share identical export classification (EAR99) and tariff codes (HTSUS 8536.50.9035), confirming equivalent regulatory status.

Q: What does the base product number AOFD211 indicate?

A: The base product number AOFD211 identifies the core product family. Both the main part and substitute share this base number, indicating they are variants within the same product line with compatible design and interface specifications.
