Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the OK162-12-OG-V is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Display Format & Character Capacity: 16x2 display with 32-character total capacity
• Physical Dimensions: Outline dimensions of 80.00mm x 36.00mm x 25.10mm and viewing area of 66.00mm L x 16.00mm W
• Display Technology: OLED technology with matching character size (5.55mm H x 2.95mm W)
• Electrical Specifications: Voltage supply range of 9V ~ 15V and operating temperature range of -20°C ~ 70°C
• Interface Compatibility: I2C, RS-232, and TTL interface support
• Dot Matrix Specifications: Dot size of 0.55mm W x 0.65mm H

The OK162-12-OY-V meets all these critical parameters and qualifies as a direct substitute. The primary distinction is the text color (yellow versus green) and the active product status of the substitute part.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The OK162-12-OY-V is the designated substitute for the obsolete OK162-12-OG-V. Selection of the substitute part is supported by the following factors:

• Product Status: The OK162-12-OY-V maintains active product status, ensuring continued availability and manufacturer support, whereas the OK162-12-OG-V is obsolete.
• Regulatory Compliance: The OK162-12-OY-V is RoHS Compliant, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements.
• Functional Equivalence: All critical electrical, mechanical, and interface parameters are identical between the two parts.
• Color Differentiation: The only functional difference is the text color (yellow in the substitute versus green in the original). This distinction does not affect electrical performance or interface compatibility and should be evaluated based on application-specific visibility or aesthetic requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the OK162-12-OY-V be used as a direct replacement for the OK162-12-OG-V?

A: Yes. The OK162-12-OY-V is functionally equivalent across all critical parameters including display format, dimensions, electrical specifications, and interface options. The text color difference (yellow versus green) does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility.
