Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the LATD-2A is determined by alignment across the following critical parameters:

• Manufacturer: IDEC (same manufacturer ensures design compatibility and form factor consistency)
• Category: Configurable Switch Components (functional classification must remain identical)
• Functional Description: CONFIG SWITCH LAMP LED (core functionality requirement)
• Detailed Description: Configurable Switch Lamp (application-level compatibility)
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: Not Applicable (environmental handling classification must match)

The substitute part LATD-2AN meets all specified parameters and maintains Active product status, providing current manufacturing support and availability assurance.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The LATD-2AN is the direct substitute for the obsolete LATD-2A. Both components share identical functional classification, manufacturer origin, and environmental compliance characteristics. The LATD-2AN maintains Active product status, ensuring ongoing manufacturer support, continued availability, and compliance with current production standards.

For new designs or system replacements, the LATD-2AN should be specified. For existing systems currently operating with the LATD-2A, transition to the LATD-2AN is supported by parameter equivalence and maintains functional compatibility within the Configurable Switch Components category.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
