Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the RTD-1215/H is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical Specifications:

• Input voltage range: 10.8V – 13.2V
• Output voltages: +15V and -15V (dual output configuration)
• Output current capability: 66mA per rail minimum
• Power rating: 2W
• Isolation voltage: 3 kV

Physical and Mechanical Specifications:

• Mounting type: Surface Mount
• Package configuration: 10-SMD Module with 6 Leads
• Pinout compatibility: 6-lead configuration

Environmental and Compliance Specifications:

• RoHS3 compliance
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)
• REACH unaffected status
• ECCN: EAR99 classification

Parts meeting all these parameters are classified as direct substitutes. Variations in operating temperature range, efficiency, or product status do not disqualify substitution eligibility when all electrical and mechanical parameters align.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The R2D-1215/H is a direct electrical and mechanical substitute for the RTD-1215/H. Both components share identical input voltage specifications, dual output voltage configuration (+15V / -15V), output current ratings, power rating, isolation voltage, and package configuration.

The R2D-1215/H offers the following advantages for new designs and system updates:

Product Status: The R2D-1215/H maintains active production status with Recom Power, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity. The RTD-1215/H is obsolete and subject to inventory depletion.

Compliance: Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance, REACH unaffected status, and identical moisture sensitivity ratings, satisfying regulatory requirements for ITE (Commercial) and Medical applications.

Operating Temperature: The R2D-1215/H extends the maximum operating temperature to 100°C compared to the RTD-1215/H specification of 85°C. This represents an enhancement that does not compromise compatibility with existing thermal design requirements.

Packaging: The R2D-1215/H is supplied in Tube packaging, whereas the RTD-1215/H packaging specification is not explicitly defined. Both maintain the 10-SMD Module, 6-Lead physical configuration required for surface mount assembly.

For applications currently specified with RTD-1215/H, direct substitution with R2D-1215/H is supported without circuit modification or re-qualification when operating within the original thermal envelope.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the R2D-1215/H replace the RTD-1215/H in existing designs?

A: Yes. The R2D-1215/H provides identical electrical specifications across input voltage range, output voltages, output current ratings, power rating, and isolation voltage. The 10-SMD Module, 6-Lead package configuration is identical, supporting direct PCB-level substitution without layout modification.

Q: What is the significance of the extended operating temperature range in the R2D-1215/H?

A: The R2D-1215/H specifies a maximum operating temperature of 100°C compared to 85°C for the RTD-1215/H. This extended range provides additional thermal margin for applications operating near the upper temperature limit. Designs currently operating within the 85°C specification of the RTD-1215/H remain fully compatible with the R2D-1215/H.

Q: Are there differences in physical dimensions between these parts?

A: The R2D-1215/H has a width of 10.7mm compared to 9.3mm for the RTD-1215/H. Length (15.2mm) and height (9.0mm) are identical. This 1.4mm width increase does not affect standard PCB footprint compatibility for surface mount assembly, as the 6-lead configuration and lead spacing remain unchanged.

Q: What is the product status difference, and why does it matter?

A: The RTD-1215/H is classified as obsolete, indicating discontinued production and limited remaining inventory. The R2D-1215/H is in active production status, ensuring availability for current and future procurement. For new designs or system updates, the R2D-1215/H is the recommended selection to avoid obsolescence-related supply constraints.

Q: Are both parts suitable for Medical applications?

A: Yes. Both the RTD-1215/H and R2D-1215/H are specified for Medical applications and maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, satisfying regulatory requirements for medical device integration.

Q: What packaging format is supplied for the R2D-1215/H?

A: The R2D-1215/H is supplied in Tube packaging. This format is standard for surface mount module components and is compatible with automated assembly processes.
