E-TA2012 T 7DB N2 RF Attenuator Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The E-TA2012 T 7DB N2 is a 7dB 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 a power rating of 63mW in a compact 0805 (2012 metric) surface-mount package. The part is currently obsolete, making identification of equivalent substitute components essential for ongoing design support, maintenance, and production continuity.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the E-TA2012 T 7DB N2 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters: attenuation value (7dB), frequency range (0 Hz ~ 3 GHz), impedance (50 ohms), power rating (63mW), and package type (0805 metric). All identified substitute parts from Susumu meet these electrical and mechanical specifications identically. The substitutes are grouped as direct manufacturer equivalents and parametric equivalents, all maintaining active product status and full ROHS3 compliance.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three Susumu substitute parts (PXV1220S-7DBN2-T02, PXV1220S-7DBN1-T02, and PXV1220S-7DBN3-T02) are direct parametric equivalents to the obsolete E-TA2012 T 7DB N2. Each substitute maintains identical electrical specifications and mechanical compatibility. All substitutes carry active product status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain stability. All parts are ROHS3 compliant and carry REACH unaffected status, meeting current regulatory requirements. Selection among the three Susumu alternatives may be based on inventory availability and packaging requirements, as all three are supplied in Tape & Reel format.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can PXV1220S-7DBN2-T02, PXV1220S-7DBN1-T02, and PXV1220S-7DBN3-T02 be used interchangeably with E-TA2012 T 7DB N2?

A: Yes. All three Susumu parts are parametric equivalents with identical attenuation (7dB), frequency range (0 Hz ~ 3 GHz), impedance (50 ohms), power rating (63mW), and package type (0805 metric). They are electrically and mechanically interchangeable.

Q: Why is the E-TA2012 T 7DB N2 marked as obsolete?

A: Nidec Components Corporation has discontinued this part. The Susumu PxV series substitutes provide equivalent functionality with active product status and ongoing manufacturer support.

Q: Are there packaging differences between the substitute parts?

A: All three Susumu substitutes are supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging. The original E-TA2012 T 7DB N2 packaging specification was not provided in the available data.

Q: Do the substitute parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes. All substitute parts are ROHS3 compliant, carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating, and are REACH unaffected, matching the compliance profile of the original part.

Q: Which substitute part should be selected for new designs?

A: Any of the three Susumu alternatives meet the electrical and mechanical requirements. Selection may be based on inventory availability and lead time considerations.
