V150LC2 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The V150LC2 is a 240 V, 1.2 kA Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) varistor manufactured by Littelfuse in a through-hole disc 7mm package. This component is designed for transient voltage protection in electronic circuits with a single circuit configuration. The V150LC2 is classified as obsolete, making identification of active equivalent parts essential for ongoing design support and procurement.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The V150LC2P is the direct active equivalent for the obsolete V150LC2. Both components meet ROHS3 compliance requirements and maintain identical electrical performance specifications across all rated parameters. Selection of V150LC2P is appropriate for new designs and replacement applications requiring the same voltage suppression and surge current handling characteristics. The active product status of V150LC2P ensures ongoing availability and manufacturing support.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can V150LC2P be used as a direct replacement for V150LC2?

A: Yes. V150LC2P is electrically and mechanically equivalent to V150LC2. Both components share identical maximum AC/DC voltage ratings, varistor voltage specifications, surge current capacity, energy rating, circuit count, operating temperature range, and through-hole disc 7mm package configuration.

Q: What is the primary reason to transition from V150LC2 to V150LC2P?

A: V150LC2 is classified as obsolete. V150LC2P is the active equivalent part, ensuring continued availability, manufacturing support, and compliance with current regulatory standards.

Q: Are there any differences in RoHS compliance between these parts?

A: No. Both V150LC2 and V150LC2P are ROHS3 compliant with identical moisture sensitivity levels (MSL 1 - Unlimited).

Q: Can these varistors be used interchangeably in existing circuit designs?

A: Yes. The electrical and mechanical specifications are identical, allowing direct substitution in existing through-hole PCB layouts without design modification.

Q: What packaging options are available?

A: Both parts are supplied in through-hole disc 7mm packages. V150LC2 was available in standard packaging, while V150LC2P is available in bulk packaging.
