E-TA2012 T 2DB N2 RF Attenuator Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The E-TA2012 T 2DB N2 is a 2dB RF attenuator manufactured by Nidec Components Corporation, designed for applications requiring signal attenuation across the 0 Hz to 3 GHz frequency range. This component operates at 50 ohms impedance with 63mW power handling capability in a compact 0805 (2012 Metric) surface-mount package. The part is currently classified as obsolete, making identification of equivalent and substitute components essential for ongoing design support, maintenance, and production continuity.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the E-TA2012 T 2DB N2 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters: attenuation value (2dB), frequency range (0 Hz ~ 3 GHz), impedance (50 Ohms), power rating (63mW), and package type (0805 / 2012 Metric). All identified substitute parts from Susumu maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications, ensuring functional interchangeability. The substitute parts are classified as either direct manufacturer equivalents or parametric equivalents based on their designation and availability status.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three Susumu substitute parts (PXV1220S-2DBN2-T02, PXV1220S-2DBN1-T02, and PXV1220S-2DBN3-T02) are classified as active products with current manufacturing status, providing long-term supply assurance compared to the obsolete E-TA2012 T 2DB N2. All substitute parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and carry identical electrical specifications. Selection among the three Susumu variants should be based on packaging format requirements and inventory availability. PXV1220S-2DBN2-T02 is designated as the direct manufacturer equivalent, while PXV1220S-2DBN1-T02 and PXV1220S-2DBN3-T02 are parametric equivalents with identical performance characteristics.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can PXV1220S-2DBN2-T02, PXV1220S-2DBN1-T02, and PXV1220S-2DBN3-T02 be used interchangeably with E-TA2012 T 2DB N2?

A: Yes. All three Susumu parts maintain identical attenuation (2dB), frequency range (0 Hz ~ 3 GHz), impedance (50 Ohms), power rating (63mW), and package type (0805 / 2012 Metric). Electrical and mechanical compatibility is confirmed across all parameters.

Q: What is the difference between the three Susumu substitute parts?

A: The three parts are parametrically equivalent with identical electrical specifications. Differences exist only in internal design variants (indicated by the N1, N2, N3 designations) and do not affect functional performance or interchangeability.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. All substitute parts are ROHS3 compliant and carry identical moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1 - Unlimited) ratings.

Q: What packaging format is available for the substitute parts?

A: All substitute parts are supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging format.

Q: Why is the original E-TA2012 T 2DB N2 marked as obsolete?

A: The E-TA2012 T 2DB N2 has been discontinued by Nidec Components Corporation. The active Susumu equivalents provide continued availability and supply continuity for this RF attenuator specification.
