PVT212 Solid State Relay SPST-NO - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The PVT212 is a solid state relay (SSR) manufactured by Infineon Technologies, configured as a single-pole single-throw normally open (SPST-NO) switch. It operates with a 1.2VDC input control signal and handles loads up to 550mA across 0–150V AC or DC output. The device is packaged in a 6-DIP (0.300", 7.62mm) through-hole format with PC pin termination.

The PVT212 is classified as obsolete. Locating equivalent or substitute parts is necessary for design continuity, repair, and new production builds where this component is specified or required as a replacement in existing systems.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the PVT212 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Circuit Configuration: Must be SPST-NO (1 Form A)
• Package / Case: Must be 6-DIP (0.300", 7.62mm) through-hole
• Termination Style: Must be PC Pin
• Input Voltage: Must be 1.2VDC
• Output Type: Must support AC and DC loads
• Load Voltage Range: Must accommodate 0–150V operation
• Load Current: Must support minimum 550mA
• Mounting Type: Must be Through Hole

Two substitute parts meet these criteria with varying electrical performance characteristics:

1. PVT212PBF (Infineon Technologies) – Direct variant with identical electrical specifications and improved RoHS compliance
2. PLA134 (IXYS Integrated Circuits Division) – Functional equivalent with reduced load current and voltage ratings

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

PVT212PBF is the primary direct substitute for PVT212. Both parts are manufactured by Infineon Technologies and share identical electrical specifications: 550mA load current, 0–150V load voltage range, and 750mOhms on-state resistance. PVT212PBF offers improved regulatory compliance with ROHS3 certification, whereas the original PVT212 is RoHS non-compliant. Both parts are obsolete; however, PVT212PBF maintains higher inventory availability (127,753 units) compared to PVT212 (1,360 units).

PLA134 is a functional equivalent manufactured by IXYS Integrated Circuits Division. It maintains the same circuit configuration, input voltage, package, and through-hole mounting. However, PLA134 operates within reduced electrical limits: maximum load current of 350mA (versus 550mA) and maximum load voltage of 100V (versus 150V). On-state resistance is significantly higher at 3 Ohms compared to 750mOhms. PLA134 is suitable only for applications where load current does not exceed 350mA and load voltage does not exceed 100V. PLA134 is ROHS3 compliant and has higher inventory availability (2,409 units).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can PVT212PBF be used as a direct replacement for PVT212?

A: Yes. PVT212PBF is a direct equivalent with identical electrical specifications. Both are Infineon Technologies HEXFET® series SSR relays with 550mA load current, 0–150V load voltage range, and 750mOhms on-state resistance. The primary difference is improved RoHS compliance in PVT212PBF.

Q: Is PLA134 a suitable substitute for all PVT212 applications?

A: No. PLA134 is suitable only for applications where load current does not exceed 350mA and load voltage does not exceed 100V. Applications requiring the full 550mA current capacity or 150V voltage range must use PVT212PBF or equivalent Infineon parts.

Q: Are all substitute parts available in the same 6-DIP package?

A: Yes. PVT212PBF and PLA134 are both packaged in 6-DIP (0.300", 7.62mm) through-hole format with PC pin termination, ensuring mechanical and electrical compatibility with PVT212 PCB layouts.

Q: What is the difference in on-state resistance between PVT212 and PLA134?

A: PVT212 has a maximum on-state resistance of 750mOhms, while PLA134 has a maximum on-state resistance of 3 Ohms. The higher resistance in PLA134 results in greater voltage drop and power dissipation during operation.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS compliant?

A: PVT212PBF and PLA134 are both ROHS3 compliant. The original PVT212 is RoHS non-compliant. For applications requiring RoHS compliance, PVT212PBF or PLA134 must be used.

Q: What is the input control voltage for all listed parts?

A: All parts—PVT212, PVT212PBF, and PLA134—require a 1.2VDC input control signal for operation.
