Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution is determined strictly by matching or exceeding the following key parameters: voltage input range, output voltage and current, number of outputs, mounting type, package/case dimensions, RoHS compliance, and applicable safety standards. Certification compatibility and product status are also considered, ensuring the substitute part meets regulatory and application requirements.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Selection of substitute AC/DC converter models must be based on product status, RoHS3 compliance, and presence of safety approvals. VCE20US05 is active and meets RoHS3 compliance. It holds safety certifications under CB, TUV, UL, with standard number 62368-1. Mechanical compatibility, mounting type, and package style are through-hole modules, supporting similar installation methods. Verification of certification and compliance requirements for the target application is necessary before selection.
