ODC5F DC Output Module - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The ODC5F is a DC output module manufactured by Sensata-Crydom, designed to switch DC loads up to 3A with input supply of 5VDC and output voltage range of 3 to 60VDC. This component is classified as obsolete, making identification of active equivalent parts essential for ongoing system maintenance and new design implementations. The ODC5F features a standard form factor with hold-down screw mounting and rapid switching characteristics suitable for industrial control applications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The ODC-5 manufactured by TE Connectivity Potter & Brumfield Relays qualifies as a direct substitute for the ODC5F based on the following critical parameters:

• Input voltage specification: 5VDC (identical)
• Input current requirement: 18 mA (identical)
• Output voltage range: 3 ~ 60VDC (identical)
• Output current capacity: 3A (identical)
• Physical mounting: Hold down screw (identical)
• Series classification: ODC (same product family)
• Form factor and style: Standard (compatible)

The ODC-5 maintains functional equivalence across all primary electrical and mechanical specifications. Switching time characteristics differ slightly but remain within acceptable operational parameters for DC output module applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The ODC-5 is the appropriate substitute for the obsolete ODC5F. Both components share identical electrical specifications for input/output voltage and current parameters, ensuring functional compatibility in existing circuit designs.

The ODC-5 carries active product status with ROHS3 compliance and REACH affected designation, providing access to current manufacturing and supply chain support. The ODC5F, classified as obsolete, presents supply continuity risks for new procurements or system replacements.

Switching time differences between the two modules (ODC5F: 0.025ms on/0.05ms off versus ODC-5: 0.10ms on/0.75ms off) must be evaluated against specific application timing requirements. For applications where the faster switching characteristics of the ODC5F are critical, alternative solutions within the ODC series should be assessed.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the ODC-5 directly replace the ODC5F in existing applications?

A: Yes, the ODC-5 provides direct electrical and mechanical compatibility. Both modules operate with identical input voltage (5VDC), input current (18 mA), output voltage range (3-60VDC), and output current capacity (3A). Physical mounting via hold-down screw is identical.

Q: What are the differences between ODC5F and ODC-5?

A: The primary differences are product status and switching speed. The ODC5F is obsolete while the ODC-5 is active. The ODC-5 has slower switching times (0.10ms turn-on versus 0.025ms, and 0.75ms turn-off versus 0.05ms). Compliance certifications differ, with ODC-5 offering ROHS3 compliance.

Q: Why is the ODC5F classified as obsolete?

A: Obsolete status indicates the manufacturer has discontinued production. The ODC-5 represents the active equivalent within the ODC product family, ensuring continued availability and manufacturing support.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these modules?

A: The ODC5F packaging specification is not detailed in available documentation. The ODC-5 is supplied in tray packaging. Verify packaging requirements for your specific application needs.

Q: Which compliance certifications apply to each module?

A: The ODC5F carries REACH Unaffected status. The ODC-5 is ROHS3 compliant and REACH affected. For applications requiring specific regulatory compliance, verify these certifications against your system requirements.
