Equivalent & Substitute Parts for VGDS2-S12-D5-DIP

Part Overview

The CUI Inc. VGDS2-S12-D5-DIP is an isolated module DC-DC converter delivering dual outputs of +5V and -5V at up to 200mA per channel, rated at 2 watts total output. It operates within a 10.8V to 13.2V DC input range, features 6 kV isolation, and is designed for ITE (commercial) applications with through-hole mounting in a 24-DIP module. This part is classified as obsolete, making the identification of suitable substitute models necessary for continued system maintenance, new designs, or repairs where this footprint and specification are required.
