RP20-2412DFR-HC Equivalent & Substitute Parts Reference
Part Overview
The Recom Power RP20-2412DFR-HC is a DC-DC converter delivering isolated dual outputs of +12V and -12V at a maximum output current of 833mA per channel, with a total power of 20W. Designed for ITE (Commercial) applications, it operates over a wide input voltage range from 9V to 36V. The RP20-2412DFR-HC features on-board protection including OCP, OVP, SCP, and UVLO, and is housed in a through-hole 6-DIP module form factor. The product is classified as obsolete, which necessitates identifying functionally equivalent substitute options to maintain production continuity and support ongoing projects.

Engineering Selection Recommendations
For the Recom Power RP20-2412DFR-HC (obsolete), the RP20-2412DFR/XC-HC is an appropriate substitute based on active production status, matching RoHS compliance, and identical moisture sensitivity classification. All other major electrical, mechanical, and performance specifications are consistently met between both models.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: What key parameters must be matched when considering DC-DC converter substitutes?
A1: Input voltage range, output voltages, maximum output currents, total output power, isolation voltage, protection features, mechanical footprint and mounting method, environmental ratings, and compliance declarations must all match.
Q2: Are RP20-2412DFR-HC and RP20-2412DFR/XC-HC compatible in form factor and function?
A2: Both models use a 6-DIP module package, identical size, through-hole mounting, and the same output and input specifications. They are functionally and mechanically compatible.
Q3: Does substituting with RP20-2412DFR/XC-HC affect compliance or certification?
A3: Both parts are ROHS3 compliant and have identical moisture sensitivity levels, aligning with standard compliance and certification requirements for this category.
Q4: What is the impact of product status on component selection?
A4: The RP20-2412DFR-HC is obsolete; using the active RP20-2412DFR/XC-HC ensures continued supply and support without changes to electrical or mechanical criteria.
Q5: What packaging information is relevant to substitute selection?
A5: Both parts are through-hole modules with the same mechanical dimensions and mounting type, supporting direct substitution in existing designs.
