Equivalent & Substitute Parts for SCW05A-12

Part Overview

The SCW05A-12 from MEAN WELL USA Inc. is an isolated, single-output DC-DC converter module providing 12V at up to 470mA, with a power rating of 5.6W. It features an input voltage range of 9V to 18V, OCP (Over-Current Protection), SCP (Short Circuit Protection), 1 kV isolation, through-hole mounting, and a 24-DIP module package. The product is classified as obsolete. Consequently, identifying compatible alternative models with equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters is required for ongoing production and maintenance.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The SCW05A-12 is obsolete. Both SCWN06A-12 (MEAN WELL USA Inc.) and DH06S1212A (Delta Electronics) are active, compliant with ROHS3 and REACH, and offer matching or higher output current, compatible input voltage range, and equivalent package type. All options listed satisfy the compliance and approval parameters specified.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What parameters must match when selecting a substitute for SCW05A-12?
A1: Substitute parts must match isolated module type, single 12V output, 9–18V input range, minimum 470mA output current, through-hole 24-DIP Module package, and protection features (OCP, SCP).

Q2: Are the listed substitutes pin-to-pin compatible with SCW05A-12?
A2: All listed substitutes, including SCWN06A-12 and DH06S1212A, share the 24-DIP Module, 8 Leads package format and through-hole mounting type as specified in the input.

Q3: Is there any difference in compliance or approvals among these options?
A3: SCWN06A-12 and DH06S1212A meet ROHS3 and REACH requirements and share the same ECCN and HTSUS codes as SCW05A-12.

Q4: How do the output specifications compare between SCW05A-12 and the substitutes?
A4: The substitutes provide 12V output, with output current of 500mA (higher than the original part's 470mA), and meet or exceed the power rating of the SCW05A-12.

Q5: What temperature ranges are supported by the alternatives?
A5: The substitutes support operating temperatures encompassing and exceeding the SCW05A-12 specification, as documented.
