Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the PC96-31-36-1.5 thermal pad is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Physical Dimensions: Length 31mm, width 36mm, thickness 1.5mm
• RoHS Compliance: Required for regulatory adherence
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: MSL 1 classification for storage and handling compatibility
• Material Category: Thermal pad (uncategorized series)

Equivalent parts must match these dimensional and compliance specifications to ensure mechanical fit and regulatory compatibility in the target application. No substitute parts are currently available in the provided database that meet these exact criteria.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The PC96-31-36-1.5 is an obsolete component with full RoHS compliance and MSL 1 rating. When sourcing alternatives, prioritize thermal pads from active manufacturers that maintain identical dimensional specifications (31mm × 36mm × 1.5mm) and equivalent RoHS certification status. The MSL 1 classification indicates minimal moisture sensitivity, which is favorable for standard storage and handling conditions. Verify that any alternative component maintains compatibility with the original application's thermal performance requirements and mechanical mounting constraints.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What makes a thermal pad a suitable substitute for the PC96-31-36-1.5?

A: A substitute thermal pad must match the exact dimensions of 31mm length, 36mm width, and 1.5mm thickness. Additionally, it must maintain RoHS compliance and MSL 1 classification to ensure regulatory and handling compatibility.

Q: Why is the PC96-31-36-1.5 listed as obsolete?

A: Obsolete status indicates that t-Global Technology has discontinued this product. However, existing inventory may remain available through authorized distributors. Alternative sources from other manufacturers with matching specifications should be evaluated for new designs or production continuity.

Q: Does MSL 1 rating affect component storage?

A: MSL 1 classification indicates unlimited shelf life under standard storage conditions (typically 30°C/60% RH). This rating provides flexibility in inventory management and reduces moisture-related handling requirements compared to higher MSL ratings.

Q: Are there dimensional tolerances to consider when selecting a substitute?

A: Mechanical fit in the target application depends on the original design tolerances. Substitute thermal pads must conform to the specified 31mm × 36mm × 1.5mm dimensions to ensure proper seating and thermal contact in the assembly.
