AM26LV31E: Comparison with DS26LV31

Genius 17395 points
Part Number: AM26LV31E

Hi Experts,

Can you confirm the differences of the two parts below?

  • DS26LV31TM
  • AM26LV31EIDR 

I do understand that the AM26LV31EIDR is the closest option for the old part DS26LV31TM.

Also, I do see that the AM26LV31EIDR is IEC certified and nothing showing that the DS26LV31TM offers this feature/certification.

Would you be able to confirm as to whether this is accurate?

Regards,
Archie A.

  • Hi Archie,

    Please see full comparison table below: (please note it says /NOPB on the end of the DS device - but its the same specifications - this isn't the first request on this change - so I had a pre-made table, from a comparison viewpoint its the same however)

    Most of the specifications are marginally different - and yes you are correct the AM device is IEC rated where the DS device is not.

    The differences are mainly marginal or beneficial to switch from DS devices to AM device - so it shouldn't negatively impact the system in most applications, but it is a good idea for the designers to review possible changes to gauge whether or not there could a edge case type issue.

    Please let me know if you have any other questions!
