Engineering Selection Recommendations

Selection between VI-B60-EW-F1 and VI-B60-EW-F2 is determined by product status and compliance documentation. VI-B60-EW-F1 is obsolete, while VI-B60-EW-F2 is active and available. Both are identical in electrical and application parameters, share RoHS non-compliance, and have unaffected REACH status. Dimensional differences are confined to thickness, with all other package specifications remaining in full brick format.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What electrical parameters must match for DC-DC converter substitution in this category?
A1: Input voltage range, output voltage and current, power rating, isolation voltage, and efficiency must be identical to ensure compatibility.

Q2: Does the package type or dimensions impact substitution?
A2: Full brick format and through-hole mounting are required for mechanical and layout compatibility. Slight variations in overall height may occur but must remain within installation tolerances.

Q3: Are feature sets (OCP, OTP, OVP, SCP) required to match?
A3: All listed features are mandatory for substitution to maintain protection and operational equivalence.

Q4: How does product status affect selection?
A4: An active product is preferred for new designs and ongoing supply; obsolete models should be replaced where possible by active equivalents.

Q5: Are there compliance considerations in substitution?
A5: RoHS non-compliance and REACH unaffected status must both match to ensure regulatory consistency across substituted parts.

Q6: Are substitutions valid if only the thickness dimension differs?
A6: Substitution is valid within the specified full brick format as long as installation requirements are met and all listed key parameters match.
