RP10-1212DA DC DC Converter Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RP10-1212DA is an isolated module DC DC converter from Recom Power's POWERLINE RP10-A series, rated for 10W output power. This component provides dual output voltages of +12V and -12V with a maximum current of 416mA per output, operating from a 9V to 18V input range. The device features integrated protection mechanisms including overcurrent protection (OCP), overvoltage protection (OVP), short-circuit protection (SCP), and undervoltage lockout (UVLO).

The RP10-1212DA is classified as obsolete. Locating equivalent or substitute components is necessary to support legacy system maintenance, design updates, or when original inventory becomes unavailable. The substitute part identified maintains electrical and mechanical compatibility while offering active product status and enhanced feature availability.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the RP10-1212DA/XC be used as a direct replacement for the RP10-1212DA?

A: Yes. The RP10-1212DA/XC is electrically and mechanically equivalent to the RP10-1212DA. Both components provide identical input voltage range (9V to 18V), dual output voltages (+12V and -12V), maximum output current (416mA per output), power rating (10W), isolation voltage (1.6 kV), and operating temperature range (-40°C to +80°C). Physical dimensions and through-hole mounting are identical.

Q: What is the difference between the RP10-1212DA and RP10-1212DA/XC?

A: The primary differences are product status and packaging. The RP10-1212DA is obsolete and supplied in bulk packaging, while the RP10-1212DA/XC is an active product supplied in tube packaging. The RP10-1212DA/XC includes an additional Remote On/Off feature. All electrical and mechanical parameters remain identical.

Q: Are there any pinout differences between these parts?

A: Both parts use a 6-DIP module package with through-hole mounting. The RP10-1212DA/XC specifies 5 leads in its package designation, while the RP10-1212DA does not include this specification. However, both maintain the same physical dimensions (25.4mm × 25.4mm × 9.9mm) and are compatible with identical PCB layouts.

Q: What protection features are included in both parts?

A: Both the RP10-1212DA and RP10-1212DA/XC include overcurrent protection (OCP), overvoltage protection (OVP), short-circuit protection (SCP), and undervoltage lockout (UVLO). The RP10-1212DA/XC adds Remote On/Off capability.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both the RP10-1212DA and RP10-1212DA/XC are ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity level, suitable for commercial ITE applications.

Q: What is the efficiency rating for these converters?

A: Both parts operate at 89% efficiency across their specified operating conditions.

Q: Can these parts be used in applications requiring 1.6 kV isolation?

A: Yes. Both the RP10-1212DA and RP10-1212DA/XC provide 1.6 kV isolation voltage, meeting isolation requirements for commercial ITE applications.

Q: What is the operating temperature range for these converters?

A: Both parts operate across a temperature range of -40°C to +80°C, suitable for industrial and commercial environments.
