PVN012 Solid State Relay - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The PVN012 is a solid state SPST-NO (1 Form A) relay manufactured by Infineon Technologies, designed for low-voltage DC switching applications with a maximum load current of 2.5A and input voltage of 1.2VDC. The device is packaged in a 6-DIP (0.300", 7.62mm) through-hole configuration with a maximum on-state resistance of 100 mOhms.

The main part number PVN012 has reached obsolete product status. Locating equivalent substitute parts is necessary to maintain design continuity and ensure component availability for production, repair, and maintenance applications.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the PVN012 are identified based on strict electrical and mechanical parameter matching. The following criteria determine substitution eligibility:

• Circuit configuration must be SPST-NO (1 Form A)
• Output type must support both AC and DC switching
• Input voltage specification must be 1.2VDC
• Load voltage range must be 0 V ~ 20 V
• Load current rating must be 2.5 A minimum
• On-state resistance must not exceed 100 mOhms
• Package must be 6-DIP (0.300", 7.62mm)
• Mounting type must be through-hole with PC pin termination

The PVN012PBF meets all specified electrical and mechanical parameters and qualifies as a direct substitute.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The PVN012PBF is a direct electrical and mechanical equivalent to the obsolete PVN012. Both parts share identical electrical specifications across all critical parameters: input voltage, load voltage range, load current capacity, and on-state resistance. The mechanical package, mounting type, and termination style are identical, ensuring PCB compatibility without layout modifications.

The primary distinction is product status: PVN012PBF maintains active production status with International Rectifier, providing supply chain continuity and availability assurance. Both parts carry identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8536.41.0030) classifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can PVN012PBF be used as a direct replacement for PVN012?

A: Yes. The PVN012PBF meets all electrical and mechanical specifications of the PVN012. No circuit modifications or PCB layout changes are required for substitution.

Q: Are there any differences in package dimensions between these parts?

A: No. Both parts use identical 6-DIP (0.300", 7.62mm) packaging with PC pin termination, ensuring mechanical compatibility on through-hole PCBs.

Q: What is the significance of the product status difference?

A: The PVN012 is obsolete and no longer manufactured. The PVN012PBF is in active production, ensuring long-term component availability and supply chain reliability.

Q: Do these parts have different compliance certifications?

A: Both parts share identical ECCN and HTSUS classifications. Compliance requirements remain consistent between the two part numbers.

Q: What are the critical parameters for confirming substitution compatibility?

A: Verify that your application requires SPST-NO switching, 1.2VDC input, 0-20V load voltage range, and 2.5A maximum load current. Confirm PCB design uses 6-DIP through-hole footprint with PC pin spacing. If all parameters match, PVN012PBF is a valid substitute.
