Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the LCM-S01601DTF are identified based on strict equivalence of the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Display Format: 16 x 1 characters
• Character Format: 5 x 8 dots
• Display Mode: Transflective
• Outline Dimensions: 80.00mm x 36.00mm x 12.70mm
• Viewing Area: 66.00mm L x 16.00mm W
• Character Size: 6.56mm H x 3.07mm W
• Backlight: LED - Yellow/Green
• Voltage Supply: 5V
• Operating Temperature Range: 0°C ~ 50°C
• Dot Size: 0.55mm W x 0.75mm H
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)

Allowable Variation Parameters:

• Display Type: TN (Twisted Nematic) or STN (Super-Twisted Nematic) technology
• Interface: Presence or specification of parallel interface
• Packaging: Bulk or standard packaging configurations
• Background Color: Specification differences

The LCM-S01601DSF qualifies as a direct substitute based on matching all mandatory parameters while utilizing STN display technology and parallel interface specification.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the LCM-S01601DTF and LCM-S01601DSF are active products manufactured by Lumex Opto/Components Inc. with identical ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status. Selection between these parts is based on the following engineering criteria:

LCM-S01601DTF Selection Criteria:

• Primary choice when TN (Twisted Nematic) display technology is specified in design requirements
• Suitable for applications where display type is explicitly defined as TN
• Current inventory: 868 units

LCM-S01601DSF Selection Criteria:

• Primary choice when STN (Super-Twisted Nematic) display technology is specified in design requirements
• Suitable for applications requiring parallel interface specification
• Higher inventory availability: 4670 units
• Bulk packaging configuration available

Both parts maintain identical electrical specifications (5V supply), mechanical dimensions (80.00mm x 36.00mm x 12.70mm), and thermal operating range (0°C ~ 50°C). The selection between TN and STN display technology depends on application-specific viewing angle, contrast, and response time requirements as defined in the original design specification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can LCM-S01601DSF replace LCM-S01601DTF in existing designs?

A: LCM-S01601DSF qualifies as a direct substitute when the design does not explicitly require TN (Twisted Nematic) display technology. Both parts share identical mechanical dimensions, electrical specifications, and operating parameters. The primary difference is the display type: TN versus STN technology. Substitution is valid when STN display characteristics are acceptable for the application.

Q: What is the difference between TN and STN display types in these modules?

A: TN (Twisted Nematic) and STN (Super-Twisted Nematic) are LCD display technologies. Both are provided in the LCM-S01601 series with identical character formats, dimensions, and electrical specifications. The selection between these technologies is determined by application requirements for viewing angle, contrast ratio, and response characteristics.

Q: Are the physical dimensions identical between LCM-S01601DTF and LCM-S01601DSF?

A: Yes. Both parts have identical outline dimensions of 80.00mm x 36.00mm x 12.70mm, viewing area of 66.00mm L x 16.00mm W, and character size of 6.56mm H x 3.07mm W. They are mechanically interchangeable in PCB layouts and mechanical assemblies.

Q: Do both parts operate at the same supply voltage?

A: Yes. Both LCM-S01601DTF and LCM-S01601DSF operate at 5V supply voltage with identical operating temperature range of 0°C ~ 50°C.

Q: What is the difference in packaging between these parts?

A: LCM-S01601DTF is supplied in standard packaging, while LCM-S01601DSF is available in bulk packaging. Both are new original stock with ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating.

Q: Are both parts currently in production?

A: Yes. Both LCM-S01601DTF and LCM-S01601DSF maintain active product status with Lumex Opto/Components Inc. and are available in current inventory.

Q: What certifications apply to both substitute parts?

A: Both parts are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and classified under ECCN EAR99 with HTSUS code 8531.20.0020.
