Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the COGS-16265S-DP-RC-LV-G is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Display Format: 16 x 2 character configuration
• Character Format: 5 x 8 dot matrix
• Display Type: STN - Super-Twisted Nematic technology
• Display Mode: Reflective operation
• Interface: Parallel communication protocol
• Backlight Configuration: Without backlight
• Voltage Supply Range: Compatible with 5V nominal operation

The substitute part LCM-S01602DSR/B meets all core functional requirements, maintaining identical display format, character matrix, display technology, reflective mode, parallel interface, and backlight specification. Both parts operate on 5V supply voltage and support the same character display architecture, ensuring functional compatibility at the system interface level.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The LCM-S01602DSR/B qualifies as a functional substitute for the obsolete COGS-16265S-DP-RC-LV-G based on matching core display specifications: identical 16 x 2 character format, 5 x 8 dot matrix, STN reflective technology, parallel interface, and non-backlit configuration.

The substitute part carries Active product status, ensuring ongoing availability and manufacturer support. The LCM-S01602DSR/B is ROHS3 compliant, providing regulatory advantage over the original part. Both components maintain REACH Unaffected status and share identical ECCN and HTSUS classifications.

Physical dimensions differ between the two parts. The LCM-S01602DSR/B features a larger outline (84.00mm x 44.00mm x 8.80mm versus 65.00mm x 27.70mm x 2.80mm) and increased thickness. Mechanical integration assessment is required to confirm fit within existing enclosure or mounting constraints.

Operating temperature range narrows with the substitute part (0°C ~ 50°C versus -10°C ~ 60°C). Applications requiring operation below 0°C or above 50°C must evaluate this specification change against system requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What makes LCM-S01602DSR/B a valid substitute for COGS-16265S-DP-RC-LV-G?

A: Both parts share identical display format (16 x 2), character matrix (5 x 8 dots), display technology (STN reflective), interface protocol (parallel), and backlight configuration (without backlight). These parameters define functional compatibility at the system interface level.

Q: Are there physical compatibility concerns?

A: Yes. The substitute part has significantly larger dimensions (84.00mm x 44.00mm x 8.80mm) compared to the original (65.00mm x 27.70mm x 2.80mm). Mechanical integration must be verified for mounting, clearance, and enclosure fit before implementation.

Q: Does the operating temperature range affect substitution?

A: The substitute part operates within 0°C ~ 50°C, narrower than the original's -10°C ~ 60°C range. Applications requiring operation outside this range cannot use this substitute without additional thermal management or alternative sourcing.

Q: What is the voltage compatibility status?

A: The original part accepts 4.75V ~ 5.25V; the substitute operates at 5V nominal. Standard 5V supply systems are compatible with both parts. Systems operating at the extremes of the original voltage range (below 4.75V or above 5.25V) should verify substitute compatibility.

Q: Is the substitute part compliant with current regulations?

A: The LCM-S01602DSR/B is ROHS3 compliant, providing regulatory advantage. Both parts maintain REACH Unaffected status and identical trade classification codes.
