VI-J0W-CZ Equivalent & Substitute Parts Reference

Part Overview

The Vicor Corporation VI-J0W-CZ is an isolated DC-DC converter module delivering 5.5V output at up to 4.55A from a 10V to 20V input. The part is rated for 25W power, features 3kV isolation, and supports ITE (Commercial) applications. Integrated OCP (Overcurrent Protection) and SCP (Short Circuit Protection) enhance system reliability. It is designed for through-hole mounting in a half-brick case. The product status is listed as obsolete, making it necessary for engineers to identify substitute models with matching electrical and mechanical characteristics for ongoing program support or maintenance.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The VI-J0W-CZ is listed as obsolete, while VI-J0W-CZ-B1 is active, supporting direct substitution to maintain supply chain continuity. Both models share identical RoHS non-compliance and REACH unaffected status. The ECCN and HTSUS codes are equivalent. The substitute part conforms to all listed certifications and regulatory criteria present in the main part number.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What parameters determine a valid substitute for VI-J0W-CZ?
A: Substitute selection is based on manufacturer, series, electrical ratings (input/output voltage, output current, power, isolation), type, application, protection features, mounting type, package/case, size/dimension, and compliance certifications.

Q: Are mounting and package types compatible between VI-J0W-CZ and VI-J0W-CZ-B1?
A: Both parts use a half brick package and through hole mounting. The overall footprint dimensions are similar. However, the substitute is taller; mechanical clearance should be confirmed by comparing the size/dimension fields.

Q: Are there any compliance or environmental differences between the models?
A: Both VI-J0W-CZ and VI-J0W-CZ-B1 are RoHS non-compliant and REACH unaffected. Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) is Not Applicable, and both share ECCN EAR99 and HTSUS 8504.40.9580.

Q: Does the substitution affect electrical protection features?
A: Both main and substitute models provide OCP and SCP, ensuring equivalent fault protection in ITE (Commercial) applications.

Q: Which substitute part is recommended based on product lifecycle status?
A: VI-J0W-CZ is obsolete; VI-J0W-CZ-B1 is active. Lifecycle status supports selection of VI-J0W-CZ-B1 when continuity and availability are required.
