Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute models are grouped strictly according to electrical and mechanical parameters that define equivalence in the DC-DC isolated module category. Fields required for substitution include: input voltage range, output voltage and current, power rating, isolation voltage, protection features, efficiency, package style, operating temperature range, and mounting method. No parameters outside those explicitly provided are used in determining equivalency.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

VE-2N1-CW is ROHS3 compliant and obsolete. VI-2N1-CW provides an active inventory status with matching electrical and mechanical parameters, though it is RoHS non-compliant. The selection between these models is determined by availability and required RoHS compliance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What criteria were used to determine substitute compatibility?
A1: Substitute compatibility is based on input voltage range, output voltage and current, power rating, isolation voltage, protection features, operating temperature, efficiency, mounting type, and package dimensions as provided.

Q2: Are the mechanical footprints identical between the VE-2N1-CW and VI-2N1-CW?
A2: Yes. Both parts use the Full Brick package with identical specified dimensions: 4.60" x 2.40" x 0.50" (116.8mm x 61.0mm x 12.7mm).

Q3: Is the substitute part VI-2N1-CW RoHS compliant?
A3: VI-2N1-CW is RoHS non-compliant as per the provided information, whereas VE-2N1-CW is ROHS3 compliant.

Q4: What is the operational status difference between the parts?
A4: VE-2N1-CW is obsolete; VI-2N1-CW is listed as active.

Q5: Are protection features equivalent in both models?
A5: Both parts provide OCP (Overcurrent Protection), OTP (Overtemperature Protection), OVP (Overvoltage Protection), and SCP (Short Circuit Protection), as specified.
