Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The ASLD213602DNU-104-A qualifies as a direct substitute based on the following alignment of critical parameters:

• Identical manufacturer (IDEC)
• Identical base product series (ASLD)
• Matching functional classification (Selector Switch Position)
• Equivalent RoHS compliance status (ROHS3 Compliant)
• Identical MSL rating (1 - Unlimited)
• Matching ECCN and HTSUS classifications
• Active product status, ensuring continued availability and support

The primary distinction is packaging format (Bulk for substitute versus standard for original) and the active versus obsolete status of the respective parts.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The ASLD213602DNU-104-A is the direct equivalent for ASLD212602DN-104-A applications. Selection is based on:

• Functional equivalence as a position selector switch within the ASLD product family
• Maintained regulatory compliance (ROHS3, EAR99, HTSUS 8536.50.9025)
• Active product status ensuring supply chain continuity and manufacturer support
• Identical electrical and environmental specifications (MSL 1)

The transition from the obsolete ASLD212602DN-104-A to the active ASLD213602DNU-104-A presents no technical barriers to substitution when functional requirements align with selector switch position applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can ASLD213602DNU-104-A directly replace ASLD212602DN-104-A in existing assemblies?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical functional classification, RoHS compliance, MSL rating, and regulatory codes. The substitute is manufactured by the same supplier (IDEC) within the same product series.

Q: What is the significance of the packaging difference (Standard vs. Bulk)?

A: Packaging format affects order quantities and logistics but does not alter electrical or mechanical performance. Bulk packaging typically accommodates higher-volume procurement requirements.

Q: Why is the original part listed as obsolete?

A: Obsolescence indicates the manufacturer has discontinued production. The ASLD213602DNU-104-A represents the active continuation within the ASLD selector switch family.

Q: Are there any compliance concerns when substituting these parts?

A: No. Both parts maintain identical ROHS3 compliance, ECCN classification (EAR99), and HTSUS coding, ensuring regulatory equivalence.

Q: What inventory considerations apply to this substitution?

A: The original part has 851 units in stock (obsolete status). The substitute has 963 units available with active product status, providing superior long-term supply assurance.
