I need an equivalent for the above product please. I originally ordered this in 2023; spec sheet here:

Hello @rluker

I have searched the category for [Triac, SCR Output Optoisolators](https://www.digikey.com/en/products/filter/optocouplers-optoisolators/triac-scr-output-optoisolators/904) Unfortunately I was unable to locate a suitable cross. Primarily options having the SCR output type. I do see in stock those with Triac output type. You may review those alternatives [Click Here](https://www.digikey.com/en/products/filter/triac-scr-output-optoisolators/904?s=N4IgjCBcpgbFoDGUBmBDANgZwKYBoQB7KAbRACZZYBWADgAYQBdAgBwBcoQBldgJwCWAOwDmIAL4FYATgQhkkdNnxFSIACxgwtaQHZmbTpB79hYyRWrk5CpbgLFIZcuvLT6jAi7f1aIL2De1P4Ugerq%2BgTaYNRg6gYgHFy8gqISBADMYLLQ8qiY9qpOGhFgGSHh0hnxBOrUmuW1tLr0ELWwGbqRGi3kwbW64X5N5B4hsVrwBBPk1tMZ9LAQLIlGJqnmUdI6NvnKDmqMTBbkWta5tgUqjmTqHgAEAGohsA-PBC30TyEMX88rSWMAFUhAJ2AB5FAAWRwaCwAFc%2BDh0qEFrtFFcDsVXvcALYAQQSgJAILBkJhcMRyIsAFpzkgoPx4dc1MFjgQaTkGZAmSzistxCc1FhEHx7oQOMRjkA)

It looks like the NTE part is a zero-cross type, so that narrows it down a bit.

I didn’t find anything that looked like an exact match, but since they don’t standardize how the specs are given, it’s difficult to pin that down precisely.

Based on what I have seen, the following seem like they are the most similar among the parts we stock:

- [14230216011](https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/w%C3%BCrth-elektronik/14230216011/24634599) from [Würth Elektronik](https://www.digikey.com/en/supplier-centers/wurth-electronics)
- [VO3023](https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/vishay-semiconductor-opto-division/VO3023/6174561) from [Vishay Semiconductor Opto Division](https://www.digikey.com/en/supplier-centers/vishay)

Be sure to check the datasheets to verify suitability in your particular application.
