Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute selection is strictly based on matching the following parameters: manufacturer, series, type (transmitter, receiver), frequency (42kHz), voltage rating (10 V ~ 32 V), beam angle (23°), operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 65°C), RoHS compliance, ECCN classification, and HTSUS code. Only models meeting all listed criteria are considered valid substitutes.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Selection of MB7780-511 as a substitute for MB7780-510 is validated due to exact matches across manufacturer, series, electrical and mechanical key parameters, RoHS3 compliance, ECCN EAR99, and HTSUS 8543.70.4500 classifications. The main differentiator is part status; MB7780-511 is active, while MB7780-510 is obsolete.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
