C4IDCD DC Input Module Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The C4IDCD is a DC input module manufactured by Sensata Technologies, designed for industrial control applications requiring 10–28VDC supply input with 4.5–30VDC output capability at 25mA. This module features hold-down screw mounting and status LED indicators for operational visibility.

The C4IDCD is classified as obsolete. Identifying equivalent substitute parts is necessary to maintain system functionality and ensure continued availability for replacement, repair, and new installations where this module specification is required.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the C4IDCD is determined by the following critical parameters:

  • Input voltage range compatibility (minimum 10VDC, maximum 28VDC or higher)
  • Output voltage range (4.5–30VDC)
  • Output current capacity (25mA minimum)
  • Physical form factor and mounting style (C4 series, hold-down screw)
  • Functional features (status LED indicators)
  • Color and style consistency (White, C4)

The C4IDC, manufactured by Sensata-Crydom, meets all substitution criteria. It operates within an expanded input voltage range (10–32VDC), maintains identical output specifications, and preserves all mechanical and functional characteristics of the original C4IDCD module.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The C4IDC is the direct substitute for the obsolete C4IDCD. Selection is based on the following factors:

  • The C4IDC maintains active product status, ensuring ongoing availability and supply chain continuity.
  • Input voltage range expansion (10–32VDC versus 10–28VDC) provides enhanced operational margin without compromising the original specification.
  • Output specifications remain identical, guaranteeing functional compatibility in existing circuit designs.
  • RoHS3 compliance of the C4IDC satisfies modern regulatory requirements while the C4IDCD status is not specified.
  • Both modules share identical MSL and REACH compliance classifications, confirming environmental and regulatory equivalence.
  • Mechanical form factor, mounting style, and feature set are preserved across the substitution.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the C4IDC directly replace the C4IDCD in existing applications?

A: Yes. The C4IDC maintains all critical electrical and mechanical parameters of the C4IDCD. The expanded input voltage range (10–32VDC) is backward compatible with the original 10–28VDC specification.

Q: What is the significance of the expanded input voltage range in the C4IDC?

A: The C4IDC accepts input voltages up to 32VDC, compared to the C4IDCD maximum of 28VDC. This provides additional operational margin and accommodates systems with higher supply voltage tolerance without affecting performance within the original 10–28VDC operating window.

Q: Are there packaging differences between the C4IDCD and C4IDC?

A: The C4IDCD packaging is listed as dash (unspecified), while the C4IDC is supplied in bulk packaging. Both modules maintain identical C4 form factor and hold-down screw mounting configuration.

Q: Does the C4IDC meet current regulatory compliance standards?

A: Yes. The C4IDC is RoHS3 compliant and maintains REACH Unaffected status, consistent with the C4IDCD. Both modules carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity classification.

Q: What are the response time characteristics of the C4IDC?

A: The C4IDC specifies 5ms turn-on time and 5ms turn-off time. The C4IDCD does not provide timing specifications in available documentation.
