• Display Format: 16 x 2
• Display Type: OLED
• Character Size: 5.55mm H x 2.95mm W
• Outline Dimensions: 80.00mm x 36.00mm x 25.10mm
• Viewing Area: 66.00mm L x 16.00mm W
• Voltage - Supply: 4.75V ~ 5.25V
• Dot Size: 0.55mm W x 0.65mm H
• Interface: I2C, RS-232, TTL
• Operating Temperature: -20°C ~ 70°C
• Background Color: Black
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)

Distinguishing Parameter:

• Text Color: OK162-12-OG displays green text; OK162-12-OY displays yellow text

The substitution is valid for applications where text color differentiation does not impact system functionality or user interface requirements.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The OK162-12-OY is the active equivalent for the obsolete OK162-12-OG. Selection of the OK162-12-OY is appropriate for new designs and replacement applications where:

• Identical mechanical form factor and mounting compatibility are required
• Electrical interface specifications (I2C, RS-232, TTL) match system requirements
• Operating temperature range (-20°C to 70°C) aligns with application environment
• Supply voltage tolerance (4.75V to 5.25V) is compatible with available power rails
• Text color differentiation (yellow versus green) does not create functional or user interface conflicts
• RoHS compliance is a design requirement

The OK162-12-OY maintains full backward compatibility with the OK162-12-OG across all critical electrical and mechanical parameters.
