Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For Obsolete Part Replacement: The 5L35021B-000NDGI8 is the manufacturer-recommended substitute for the obsolete 280GILFT. Both components are manufactured by Renesas Electronics Corporation and operate within the Clock/Timing product category.

Compliance and Regulatory Considerations: The substitute part 5L35021B-000NDGI8 carries REACH Unaffected status and EAR99 ECCN classification, indicating compliance with current environmental and export control regulations. The MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited) indicates minimal moisture sensitivity, supporting standard handling and storage procedures.

Product Status Advantage: The substitute's active production status ensures manufacturer technical support, continued availability, and alignment with current manufacturing standards. The obsolete status of the original part necessitates transition to an active alternative for new procurement and long-term system support.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Why is the 280GILFT classified as obsolete? A: The 280GILFT has reached end-of-life status with Renesas Electronics Corporation and is no longer recommended for new designs. Obsolete classification indicates the manufacturer has discontinued active production and support.

Q: Is the 5L35021B-000NDGI8 a direct replacement for the 280GILFT? A: The 5L35021B-000NDGI8 is the manufacturer-recommended substitute. Both components are Renesas Electronics Clock/Timing ICs. Functional compatibility depends on specific circuit requirements and pinout configuration, which must be evaluated against application schematics.

Q: What is the packaging difference between these parts? A: The 280GILFT packaging specification is not provided in available documentation. The substitute 5L35021B-000NDGI8 is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging with a 20QFN form factor. Packaging compatibility must be confirmed against PCB design specifications.

Q: What does MSL 1 (Unlimited) mean for the substitute part? A: MSL 1 indicates the lowest moisture sensitivity level, meaning the component can be stored indefinitely without moisture bake-out requirements prior to soldering, simplifying inventory management and assembly procedures.

Q: Are there regulatory compliance differences? A: The substitute part carries REACH Unaffected status and EAR99 ECCN classification. These designations confirm compliance with current environmental regulations and standard export control classifications for electronic components.

Q: Should I use remaining 280GILFT inventory or transition to the substitute? A: Existing 280GILFT inventory (827 Pcs) can support current maintenance and repair operations. New designs and long-term system support should transition to the active substitute 5L35021B-000NDGI8 to ensure manufacturer support and supply chain continuity.
