SPA02C-15 Equivalent & Substitute Parts Reference

Part Overview

The MEAN WELL USA Inc. SPA02C-15 is a DC DC converter in the isolated module category, providing a regulated 15V DC output at up to 133mA, with an input range of 36V to 72V and a 2W power rating. It is designed for ITE (Commercial) applications and features Over Current Protection (OCP), Short Circuit Protection (SCP), and Remote On/Off functions. The SPA02C-15 is now classified as obsolete, necessitating identification of alternative models with matching electrical and mechanical parameters to ensure continued compatibility in existing and future designs.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute and equivalent DC DC converter modules for the SPA02C-15 are identified by directly matching the following parameters: input voltage range (36V–72V), output voltage (15V), output current rating (≥133mA), output power (2W), isolation voltage, pin count and layout (8-SIP Module, 7 Leads), physical dimensions, features (Remote On/Off, OCP, SCP), application suitability (ITE Commercial), mounting type (Through Hole), and compliance (RoHS, REACH, MSL). Substitute parts must conform to these key specifications to ensure electrical, mechanical, and environmental compatibility.
