Equivalent & Substitute Parts for SCW05A-15 DC DC Converter

Part Overview

The SCW05A-15 DC DC Converter from MEAN WELL USA Inc. is an isolated module providing a single 15V output at up to 400mA with a 6W power rating. It operates over a 9V–18V input voltage range and features overcurrent and short-circuit protection. The device comes in a through-hole 24-DIP module (8 leads) package and is rated for operation from -40°C to 71°C (with derating). The part is currently listed as Obsolete, necessitating the identification of suitable alternative models with matching critical parameters for continued designs and maintenance.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution is determined by comparison of the following key parameters: output voltage, maximum output current, total power, input voltage range, isolation voltage, mounting type, package type, and compliance statuses. Parts selected as substitutes must match the main part in these areas to ensure form, fit, and function compatibility. All listed substitute DC DC converter modules are isolated, through-hole mounted, and use the 24-DIP Module, 8 leads package. Compliance with ROHS3, REACH, MSL 1, and matching inventory status are also considered.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Substitute part selection is based on product status and regulatory compliance. The SCWN06A-15 from MEAN WELL USA Inc. and DH06S1215A from Delta Electronics are both active DC DC converter models with ROHS3 compliance, REACH unaffected status, and MSL 1. These substitutes match the necessary electrical and mechanical parameters as listed, and maintain compatibility in terms of the package, mounting method, and global harmonized tariff codes.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What parameters are mandatory for substitution of DC DC converter modules in this category?
A1: Substitution requires identical output voltage, current rating, power rating, input voltage range, isolation voltage, mounting type, package format, and compliance statuses.

Q2: Are the SCWN06A-15 and DH06S1215A compatible with existing PCB layouts designed for SCW05A-15?
A2: Both substitutes use the 24-DIP Module, 8 leads package and through-hole mounting, which matches the SCW05A-15 mechanical specifications.

Q3: Is there any difference in regulatory compliance or status between the SCW05A-15 and its substitutes?
A3: All models are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and have MSL 1, ECCN EAR99, and HTSUS 8504.40.9580 designations.

Q4: Does output isolation voltage differ among substitutes?
A4: Isolation voltage varies: SCW05A-15 offers 1 kV, SCWN06A-15 provides 3 kV, and DH06S1215A offers 1.5 kV.

Q5: How does the operating temperature range compare among these models?
A5: SCW05A-15 is rated for -40°C ~ 71°C, SCWN06A-15 for -40°C ~ 90°C, and DH06S1215A for -40°C ~ 85°C.
