Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Rabbit 5000 module is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type: Must maintain Edge Connector - 52 for physical and electrical compatibility
• Physical Dimensions: Must match 1.200" L x 2.000" W (30.00mm x 51.00mm) for form factor compatibility
• Operating Temperature Range: Must support -40°C ~ 85°C minimum operating envelope
• Module/Board Type: Must be MPU Core classification
• Series Compatibility: MiniCore® series maintains pin-level and functional compatibility

The substitute part 20-101-1319 (Rabbit 6000) meets all critical substitution criteria while providing enhanced performance characteristics. This part maintains identical physical form factor, connector configuration, and operating temperature specifications, enabling direct replacement in existing designs.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Rabbit 6000 module (20-101-1319) serves as the direct substitute for the obsolete Rabbit 5000 module. Both parts maintain identical physical form factors, connector configurations, and operating temperature specifications, ensuring mechanical and electrical compatibility in existing socket configurations.

The Rabbit 6000 provides performance enhancements including increased processor speed (162.5MHz versus 50MHz) and expanded RAM capacity (1.032MB versus 128KB) while maintaining the same Flash memory size (1MB). The Rabbit 6000 achieves RoHS Compliance status, whereas the Rabbit 5000 is RoHS non-compliant.

Both parts carry MSL Level 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity classification and operate within the identical temperature range of -40°C to 85°C. The Rabbit 6000 is classified as "Not For New Designs," indicating it is also in end-of-life status but remains available in higher inventory quantities (6552 units versus 708 units for the Rabbit 5000).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Rabbit 6000 (20-101-1319) be used as a direct replacement for the Rabbit 5000 (20-101-1235)?
