ASA00C18-L Equivalent & Substitute Parts Reference

Part Overview

The ARTESYN / Advanced Energy ASA00C18-L is an isolated module DC-DC converter designed for ITE (Commercial) applications. This module provides a single 15V output at a maximum output current of 400mA, with an input voltage range from 9V to 36V and a power output of 6W. The ASA00C18-L is supplied in an 8-DIP module through-hole package and features short circuit protection (SCP) with a 1.5kV isolation voltage. This part is marked as obsolete, which necessitates the selection of alternative parts with strictly matching electrical and mechanical parameters for continued design support and replacement in existing applications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution is determined by matching the following key parameters: electrical specifications (input voltage range, output voltage and current, power, isolation voltage), mechanical aspects (package/case, mounting type, size/dimensions), and features (SCP, application suitability, operating temperature, efficiency, MSL). Only parts conforming exactly to these criteria are considered valid substitutes for the ASA00C18-L.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The ARTESYN / Advanced Energy ASA00C18-L has reached obsolete status, making substitute selection necessary. The ASA00C18-LS is listed as active and is directly suitable as a replacement, as it matches all electrical, mechanical, and compliance parameters, including operating temperature, efficiency, features, and moisture sensitivity level. RoHS compliance is confirmed for the ASA00C18-LS.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: Which parameters must match when substituting isolated module DC-DC converters such as the ASA00C18-L?
All key functional parameters must match, including input voltage range, output voltage and current, output power, isolation voltage, mechanical configuration (package/case, mounting type, dimensions), features, operating temperature, efficiency, and moisture sensitivity level.

Q2: Is form-factor compatibility ensured between ASA00C18-L and ASA00C18-LS?
Both parts utilize the 8-DIP module through-hole package with identical physical dimensions, ensuring mechanical compatibility.

Q3: Are functional features such as short circuit protection retained with the substitute ASA00C18-LS?
The substitute part ASA00C18-LS provides the same short circuit protection (SCP) feature as the main part number.

Q4: Is compliance (e.g., MSL, RoHS) maintained when switching from ASA00C18-L to ASA00C18-LS?
The ASA00C18-LS is RoHS compliant and maintains the same moisture sensitivity level (1, Unlimited) as the ASA00C18-L.

Q5: Can the substitute part be used in the same end-application environments?
The ASA00C18-LS supports the same application (ITE Commercial) and operating temperature range specified for the ASA00C18-L.
