Equivalent & Substitute Parts for TEN 3-4821

Part Overview

The Traco Power TEN 3-4821 is an isolated DC-DC converter module featuring dual outputs (5.5V and -5V), 2.6W output power, and a 36V to 72V input voltage range. It provides a maximum output current of 250mA per channel, with 1.5 kV isolation, and is supplied in a 24-DIP Through Hole package. The module is compliant with ROHS3 and is approved by CB and cCSAus agencies. The TEN 3-4821 is classified as "Not For New Designs," necessitating the identification of suitable substitute or equivalent models for ongoing or new projects where continued availability and active product status are critical.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of DC-DC converter modules in this category is based on strict compliance with key electrical and mechanical parameters: input voltage range, output voltages and currents, total power, isolation rating, package style, mounting type, and relevant compliance or certification status. Only devices matching or exceeding these critical parameters can be designated as equivalents or substitutes. All substitute parts are verified using provided attributes, ensuring compatibility in intended ITE commercial applications, installation footprint, and feature set.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Selection for design continuity is determined by the product status, regulatory compliance, and presence of required certifications. The TEN 3-4821 is listed as "Not For New Designs," whereas the XP Power JCA0348D01 maintains "Active" status. Both devices are ROHS3 compliant, and both target ITE (Commercial) applications. When maintaining regulatory compliance and supply assurance is critical, substitution with an active-status, compliant, and certified part is required.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What parameters are essential for selecting a substitute for the TEN 3-4821?
A1: Key parameters are input voltage range, output voltage and current, total power, isolation rating, mounting type, package size, and compliance with ITE (Commercial) application standards.

Q2: Is package compatibility maintained between the TEN 3-4821 and JCA0348D01?
A2: Both modules are supplied in a 24-DIP module, 8 Leads Through Hole package, supporting drop-in mechanical compatibility.

Q3: Are there differences in output voltage or current between the available options?
A3: The JCA0348D01 provides 5V and -5V outputs at up to 300mA per channel, compared to 5.5V and -5V at 250mA in the TEN 3-4821. This exceeds the original current specification, while the output voltage differs for the positive rail.

Q4: What should be verified when replacing TEN 3-4821 in a legacy design with JCA0348D01?
A4: Confirm that the output voltage, current, and total power meet the design’s requirements and that the package and mechanical dimensions match the existing footprint.

Q5: Are all substitute parts compliant with the same RoHS directives?
A5: Both the TEN 3-4821 and the JCA0348D01 are ROHS3 Compliant according to the provided data.
