Engineering Selection Recommendations
The PBO-3-S12 is designated as obsolete. The substitute models PBO-3C-12 and PSK-3D-12 are both active and RoHS or ROHS3 compliant. Both substitutes provide equivalent electrical performance and certification status, though approval agencies and package/case details vary. Selection among these models should be based on required product lifecycle status, regulatory compliance, and form factor compatibility with the target design.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: What criteria determine whether PSK-3D-12 or PBO-3C-12 can substitute PBO-3-S12?
A: Substitute selection is based on identical voltage input and output, output current, power rating, number of outputs, mounting type, operating temperature, and RoHS compliance.
Q: Are the package/case dimensions between PBO-3-S12 and its substitutes interchangeable?
A: Package/case specifications differ: PBO-3-S12 uses a 12-SIP Module (6 Leads), PBO-3C-12 uses a 6-SIP Module, and PSK-3D-12 uses a 5-DIP Module (4 Leads). Mechanical compatibility should be confirmed solely based on explicit provided dimensions.
Q: Do substitute parts hold the same regulatory and environmental certifications?
A: All parts provided are RoHS compliant. Certifications and approval agencies differ and should be checked for system compliance based on the supplied certifications.
Q: Is there a difference in electrical regulation performance among the listed substitutes?
A: Substitute parts exhibit variation in regulation characteristics as outlined in the parameter comparison table. Select the part with the required regulation specification for the application.
Q: Do the alternative parts support the same mounting method?
A: All listed parts use Through Hole mounting as per the provided specifications.
