Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of VE-HAM-CM is permitted strictly by matching the manufacturer (Vicor Corporation), base product number (VE-HAM), and compliance statuses including RoHS and REACH. Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) is not applicable for either part, eliminating that parameter from substitution concerns. Only substitute models explicitly listed and matching the required compliance are considered suitable alternatives.

Key parameters:

• Manufacturer Part Number
• Manufacturer
• Base Product Number
• Product Status
• Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL)
• REACH Status
• RoHS Status

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The main part, VE-HAM-CM, is classified as obsolete, whereas VE-HAM-CL is listed as active and available in inventory. Both parts share the same manufacturer and base product number, indicating a direct product lineage. Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) is not applicable for either, removing any packaging or process limitations relating to MSL. RoHS compliance is confirmed for both, with VE-HAM-CL carrying the ROHS3 designation. REACH Status differs between the two, with VE-HAM-CM classified as unaffected and VE-HAM-CL affected. Engineers should select VE-HAM-CL as a substitute where inventory and compliance align with specific project requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What criteria determine if VE-HAM-CL is a valid substitute for VE-HAM-CM?
A1: Substitute validity is determined by matching manufacturer, base product number (VE-HAM), product status, Moisture Sensitivity Level (Not Applicable), and RoHS compliance.

Q2: Are there any differences in compliance status between VE-HAM-CM and VE-HAM-CL?
A2: VE-HAM-CM is listed as REACH Unaffected and ROHS compliant, while VE-HAM-CL is REACH Affected and ROHS3 Compliant.

Q3: Does packaging influence the substitution in this case?
A3: The main part packaging status is unspecified; VE-HAM-CL is supplied in bulk. Substitute selection is not affected by MSL, as it is Not Applicable for both.

Q4: Is there any difference in base product series between the listed parts?
A4: Both VE-HAM-CM and VE-HAM-CL are part of the VE-HAM series, ensuring compatibility within the product family.

Q5: How should engineers proceed with selection if REACH status is a concern?
A5: Engineers should reference the provided REACH status for each part and select according to project-specific compliance requirements.
