PS9587L2-AX Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The PS9587L2-AX is a Logic Output Optoisolator with 5000Vrms isolation, rated for 10Mbps data rate, and featuring a single channel open collector output. The main product (PS9587L2-AX by CEL) is discontinued at DiGi Electronics, making equivalent alternatives from active product lines necessary for continued component availability. Direct equivalents and similar substitutes are available from Renesas Electronics Corporation, with variations in data rate and operating voltage range.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the PS9587L2-AX is determined by strict alignment with the following electrical and mechanical parameters:

Direct Equivalents (PS9587 series - 10Mbps variants):

• 10Mbps data rate
• 25 mA output current
• 4.5V ~ 5.5V supply voltage
• 15kV/µs CMTI
• 5000Vrms isolation
• 8-DIP Gull Wing package

These parts differ only in packaging format (Tube vs. Tape & Reel) or manufacturer designation suffix. All electrical specifications remain identical to the main part.

Similar Alternatives (PS9513 series - 1Mbps variants):

• 1Mbps data rate (reduced from 10Mbps)
• 15 mA output current (reduced from 25 mA)
• 4.5V ~ 20V supply voltage (extended range)
• 15kV/µs CMTI
• 5000Vrms isolation
• 8-DIP Gull Wing package
• Extended operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 100°C)

PS9513 variants are substitutable only when the application tolerance permits operation at lower data rates and output currents while benefiting from broader supply voltage compatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For applications requiring exact electrical equivalence: Select PS9587L2-AX (Renesas), PS9587L2-E3-AX, or PS9587L3-AX. These maintain identical data rate (10Mbps), output current (25 mA), and supply voltage specifications. Product status is active across all three variants. Selection between these parts depends solely on packaging requirements: Tube packaging for discrete component use or Tape & Reel for automated assembly.

For applications with reduced data rate tolerance: PS9513 series variants (PS9513L2-AX, PS9513L3-AX, PS9513L3-E3-AX) provide extended supply voltage range (4.5V ~ 20V) and broader operating temperature (-40°C ~ 100°C). These require application compatibility with 1Mbps data rate and 15 mA output current limitations. All PS9513 variants carry active product status.

Compliance considerations: All substitute parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and carry identical ECCN and HTSUS classifications to the main part. REACH status varies between direct equivalents (unaffected) and PS9513 series (one variant affected, two unaffected).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can I directly replace a discontinued PS9587L2-AX with a Renesas PS9587L2-AX? A: Yes. The Renesas PS9587L2-AX (part number identical) provides direct electrical and mechanical equivalence with identical specifications and maintains active product status.

Q: What is the difference between PS9587L2-AX and PS9587L2-E3-AX? A: Both parts are electrically identical 10Mbps optoisolators with 25 mA output. The E3-AX suffix indicates Tape & Reel packaging, suitable for automated assembly processes. The standard version uses Tube packaging for discrete component applications.

Q: Can I use PS9513 series as a replacement for PS9587? A: PS9513 series substitution requires application tolerance for reduced performance: data rate is limited to 1Mbps (versus 10Mbps) and output current to 15 mA (versus 25 mA). The advantage is extended supply voltage range (4.5V ~ 20V) and wider operating temperature span (-40°C ~ 100°C).

Q: Are all substitute parts ROHS3 compliant? A: Yes. All listed equivalent and similar parts maintain ROHS3 compliance matching the original specification.

Q: How do I choose between Tube and Tape & Reel packaging? A: Tube packaging (standard suffix -AX) is suitable for small-volume and manual assembly applications. Tape & Reel (E3-AX suffix) is designed for automated pick-and-place assembly and high-volume production. Both provide equivalent electrical performance.

Q: Which PS9513 variant should I select? A: Selection depends on packaging need: PS9513L2-AX and PS9513L3-AX for Tube packaging, PS9513L3-E3-AX for Tape & Reel. All three are electrically identical with 1Mbps data rate and 15 mA output current.
