Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitutes are selected strictly based on matching key electrical and mechanical parameters. The following criteria are used:

• Output Voltage: Must be 15V
• Output Current: Comparable value; not exceeding the main part’s maximum (350mA)
• Power Rating: Equal or greater than 5W
• Input Voltage Range: Must include the specified range
• Mounting Type: Through Hole only
• Package / Case: DIP Module configuration
• Regulatory Approvals: Must include listed agencies (CE, cURus, TUV)
• RoHS Compliance: Only ROHS3 Compliant parts allowed

Substitute TUHS5F15 meets these criteria as per the provided data.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

TUHS5F15 is supplied by the same manufacturer, Cosel USA, Inc., and maintains RoHS3 compliance and EAR99 export classification matching the VAF515. The substitute part is actively produced and features necessary safety and regulatory approvals (CE, cURus). When selecting a substitute for obsolete parts, technical engineers should reference provided certifications and compliance listings only.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: How are substitute AC/DC converter parts selected for the VAF515?
Substitutes are selected based exclusively on matching output voltage, output current rating, input voltage range, mounting type, package/module format, regulatory approvals, and RoHS compliance.

Q2: Is the TUHS5F15 package directly interchangeable with the VAF515?
Both parts feature through hole mounting and DIP module packages. The mechanical format and pin layout should be reviewed per provided dimensions for compatibility.

Q3: Are electrical performance parameters equivalent between VAF515 and TUHS5F15?
Key electrical specifications such as output voltage, number of outputs, input voltage range, output power, and regulation parameters are strictly matched according to available data.

Q4: What regulatory approvals must be considered when substituting these AC/DC converters?
Substitutes must provide CE and cURus certification. TUV approval is present in VAF515 but not explicitly listed for TUHS5F15.

Q5: Why is substitution necessary for VAF515 applications?
VAF515 is obsolete, so only active manufacture and compliant alternatives may be used for ongoing technical support and product maintenance.
