Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The HCPL-2212-060E is the direct substitute for the discontinued HCPL-2212#060. Both components are manufactured by Broadcom Limited and share identical electrical specifications and package configurations.

The HCPL-2212-060E offers the following advantages:

• Product Status: Active, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity
• RoHS Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant, compared to the non-compliant status of the original part
• Inventory Availability: 6000 pieces in stock, providing immediate procurement capability
• Base Product Number: HCPL-2212, confirming manufacturer lineage and design continuity

Selection of the HCPL-2212-060E eliminates obsolescence risk while maintaining full electrical and mechanical compatibility with existing designs.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the HCPL-2212-060E be used as a direct replacement for the HCPL-2212#060?

A: Yes. The HCPL-2212-060E meets all electrical and mechanical specifications of the HCPL-2212#060, including isolation voltage, output configuration, data rate, output current, and package form factor. No circuit modifications are required.

Q: What is the difference between HCPL-2212#060 and HCPL-2212-060E?

A: The primary differences are product status and compliance. The HCPL-2212#060 is discontinued and RoHS non-compliant. The HCPL-2212-060E is an active product with ROHS3 compliance and significantly higher inventory availability.
