E-TA2012 T 5DB N1 RF Attenuator Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The E-TA2012 T 5DB N1 is a 5dB RF attenuator manufactured by Nidec Components Corporation, designed for RF signal attenuation applications across the 0 Hz to 3 GHz frequency range. This component is packaged in the 0805 (2012 Metric) form factor with 50 Ohm impedance and 63mW power rating. The part is currently listed as obsolete, making identification of equivalent substitute components essential for ongoing design support and procurement continuity.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the E-TA2012 T 5DB N1 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Attenuation Value: 5dB (exact match required)
• Frequency Range: 0 Hz ~ 3 GHz (exact match required)
• Impedance: 50 Ohms (exact match required)
• Power Rating: 63mW (exact match required)
• Package / Case: 0805 (2012 Metric) (exact match required)
• RoHS Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant (maintained)
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited) (maintained)

All substitute parts listed below meet these criteria and are manufactured by Susumu under the PxV series. These components are classified as direct manufacturer equivalents or parametric equivalents, with all parts currently in active production status.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The E-TA2012 T 5DB N1 has been superseded by three active Susumu PxV series alternatives: PXV1220S-5DBN1-T02, PXV1220S-5DBN2-T02, and PXV1220S-5DBN3-T02. All substitute parts maintain identical electrical specifications, mechanical form factor, and regulatory compliance (ROHS3 Compliant, REACH Unaffected).

Selection among the three Susumu alternatives should be based on procurement availability and lead time requirements. PXV1220S-5DBN3-T02 currently offers the highest inventory level at 1245 pieces. All three parts are supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging and carry the same ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8533.21.0020) classifications as the original component.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can PXV1220S-5DBN1-T02, PXV1220S-5DBN2-T02, and PXV1220S-5DBN3-T02 be used interchangeably with E-TA2012 T 5DB N1?

A: Yes. All three Susumu parts are parametric equivalents with identical attenuation (5dB), frequency range (0 Hz ~ 3 GHz), impedance (50 Ohms), power rating (63mW), and package form factor (0805 / 2012 Metric). They are direct functional replacements.

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

A: The three PXV1220S variants (N1, N2, N3) are parametrically identical. Differences are limited to internal manufacturing lot designations and packaging configurations. All are supplied in Tape & Reel format and meet the same electrical and compliance specifications.

Q: Are the substitute parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. All substitute parts (PXV1220S-5DBN1-T02, PXV1220S-5DBN2-T02, PXV1220S-5DBN3-T02) are ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected, matching the compliance status of the original E-TA2012 T 5DB N1.

Q: What packaging format are the substitute parts supplied in?

A: All substitute parts are supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging, suitable for automated assembly processes.

Q: Is the moisture sensitivity level maintained in the substitute parts?

A: Yes. All substitute parts maintain Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited), identical to the original component.
