Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitutes are selected strictly based on the following allowed parameters: output voltage, output current, input voltage range, power rating, isolation voltage, primary features, mounting type, package dimensions, operating temperature range, and compliance certifications. Only parts matching all these key parameters have been included for direct substitution.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The VI-22W-CW part is obsolete and RoHS non-compliant. The VI-22W-CW-B1 is active, shares identical electrical and mechanical parameters, compliance status, and certifications as the VI-22W-CW. The physical dimensions differ in height, remaining within the full brick standard. Both parts are REACH unaffected and classified under EAR99 and HTSUS 8504.40.9580.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What parameters determine the interchangeability of VI-22W-CW and VI-22W-CW-B1?
A1: Interchangeability is determined by matching output voltage, output current, input voltage range, power rating, isolation voltage, features, mounting type, package type, operating temperature range, and compliance certifications.

Q2: Are the electrical performance and protections identical between the two parts?
A2: Both parts provide 5.5V output at 18.18A, support input voltages from 21V to 56V, offer 100W power, and include OCP, OTP, OVP, and SCP features.

Q3: Does the difference in package height affect compatibility?
A3: While the main part has a height of 0.50" and the substitute has a height of 1.07", both use a full brick through-hole package. Only the height varies; otherwise, mounting and footprint remain consistent.

Q4: Are either of the parts RoHS compliant?
A4: Both VI-22W-CW and VI-22W-CW-B1 are RoHS non-compliant.

Q5: Is there any difference in certification or regulatory status between the parts?
A5: Both parts share the same REACH status, ECCN, and HTSUS designation.

Q6: What is the product status difference?
A6: VI-22W-CW is obsolete; VI-22W-CW-B1 is active. This status directly affects availability for ongoing designs and replacements.

Q7: Can the substitute be used in all existing applications of the original part?
A7: Based strictly on the provided parameters, the substitute matches all application criteria except for height, which may be relevant for mechanical enclosure or thermal planning.
