VI-J1P-CY Equivalent & Substitute Parts Reference

Part Overview

The Vicor Corporation VI-J1P-CY is an isolated DC-DC converter module with a single output of 13.8V at 3.62A, 21V – 32V input voltage range, 50W output power, through-hole mounting, and a half brick package. This product is obsolete, necessitating the identification of equivalent and substitute models to ensure continued support for designs requiring identical electrical and mechanical specifications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution is strictly defined based on the simultaneous match of all key electrical and mechanical parameters:

• Output voltage (13.8V) and current (3.62A)
• Input voltage range (21V – 32V)
• Output power (50W)
• Isolation rating (3 kV)
• Module type (Isolated Module)
• Number of outputs (1)
• Mounting type (Through Hole)
• Package/case type (Half Brick)
• Operating temperature range (-25°C ~ 100°C)
• Series consistency (VI-J00™ (50W))
• Feature set (OCP, SCP)
• Compliance status (RoHS, MSL, REACH, ECCN, HTSUS)

Only substitute parts meeting every specified parameter are listed as equivalents.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The VI-J1P-CY is classified as obsolete, and all relevant compliance details provided show non-applicability for modern certification requirements (RoHS non-compliant, MSL not applicable, REACH unaffected). The VI-J1P-CY-F1 retains identical specifications, series, compliance, and mounting, with only slight dimensional variation within the half brick category, meeting strict substitution requirements for maintenance or design continuity.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What are the mandatory criteria for substituting VI-J1P-CY DC-DC converters?
A: Substitution requires an exact match for output voltage, output current, input voltage range, output power, isolation rating, module type, number of outputs, and mounting/package type, as well as identical compliance and feature status.

Q: Is the VI-J1P-CY-F1 suitable for direct replacement of VI-J1P-CY in existing hardware?
A: VI-J1P-CY-F1 matches all specified electrical and mechanical parameters; dimensional differences remain within the half brick category.

Q: Do substitutes adhere to the same regulatory and compliance designations as the original VI-J1P-CY?
A: Both VI-J1P-CY and VI-J1P-CY-F1 are RoHS non-compliant and REACH unaffected, with equivalent ECCN and HTSUS designations.

Q: Does the substitute part maintain the same protection and feature set?
A: OCP (Overcurrent Protection) and SCP (Short Circuit Protection) features are present in both VI-J1P-CY and VI-J1P-CY-F1.

Q: What are the implications of different size dimensions within the half brick package family?
A: Both parts are classified as half brick modules; specific enclosure or heatsink interfaces should consider dimensional differences as listed.
