RP20-11012DFR Equivalent & Substitute Parts Reference

Part Overview

The Recom Power RP20-11012DFR is an isolated module DC-DC converter with dual outputs of +12V and -12V, designed for commercial ITE and railway applications. Key performance features include overcurrent protection (OCP), overvoltage protection (OVP), short circuit protection (SCP), and undervoltage lockout (UVLO), with an efficiency rating of 88%. The module supports a wide input voltage range (43V – 160V), outputs up to 833mA per channel, and is housed in a 6-DIP through-hole package. The part is RoHS3 compliant and classified with MSL 1 (Unlimited). The RP20-11012DFR is obsolete; therefore, identification of equivalent and substitute models is essential for ongoing designs and component continuity.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for DC-DC converter modules must match all primary electrical and mechanical specifications to ensure compatibility and maintain system integrity. The substitution logic for RP20-11012DFR is strictly governed by the following parameters: input voltage range, output voltage levels, maximum output current, total output power, isolation voltage, protection features, mounting type, package/case, efficiency, environmental compliance, and dimensions. Only parts meeting these criteria are considered valid equivalents or substitutes.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The RP20-11012DFR is obsolete. Selection of RP20-11012DFR/XC as a substitute is valid due to identical electrical ratings, protection features, mechanical dimensions, regulatory compliance (ROHS3), and moisture sensitivity level. Both models offer adequate environmental and certification status. Inventory status is current and sufficient for both parts.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What parameters must match for DC-DC converter substitution?

Key electrical parameters including input voltage range, output voltage(s), output current, power rating, isolation voltage, and protection features must be identical. Mechanical characteristics such as mounting type, package/case, dimensions, and environmental compliance must also align.

Does the RP20-11012DFR/XC have the same package as RP20-11012DFR?

Both have a 6-DIP Module package with dimensions of 2.00" x 1.00" x 0.40", but RP20-11012DFR/XC specifies 5 leads. Parameters affecting mechanical interchangeability should be verified against actual board layout requirements.

Are both parts compliant with RoHS and environmental regulations?

Both RP20-11012DFR and RP20-11012DFR/XC are ROHS3 compliant and have MSL 1 (Unlimited) ratings.

Is there any difference in efficiency or protection features?

Efficiency and protection features (OCP, OVP, SCP, UVLO) are identical for both parts.

Can RP20-11012DFR/XC be used in place of RP20-11012DFR for commercial ITE applications?

Based strictly on the provided parameters for applications and certifications, RP20-11012DFR/XC meets the commercial ITE requirements and conforms to all listed standards.

Is the thermal performance and operating temperature range the same?

Both models specify identical operating temperature ranges of -40°C to 79°C.
