AL5890-40P1-13 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The AL5890-40P1-13 is a linear LED driver IC manufactured by Diodes Incorporated, designed for single-output lighting and signage applications. This part operates with a supply voltage range of 7V to 400V and delivers 40mA output current without dimming capability. The device is housed in a PowerDI™ 123 package for surface mount applications.

The AL5890-40P1-13 is classified as obsolete, making equivalent and substitute parts necessary for new designs and ongoing production requirements. Substitute parts must maintain compatibility with the 40mA output current specification and PowerDI™ 123 package form factor, while accommodating the electrical operating parameters of the target application.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the AL5890-40P1-13 is determined by the following critical parameters:

Primary Compatibility Criteria:

• Single output LED driver topology
• Linear driver type
• Surface mount packaging
• 40mA output current capability
• PowerDI™ 123 package form factor (preferred for direct replacement)
• ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status

Secondary Considerations:

• Supply voltage range compatibility with application requirements
• Operating temperature range suitability
• Dimming capability (not required for AL5890-40P1-13 applications)
• Internal switch configuration

The substitute parts listed below meet the core electrical and mechanical requirements for LED driver applications. Parts are grouped by package type and current rating compatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

AL5809-40P1-7 (Diodes Incorporated) Direct package-compatible substitute with identical PowerDI™ 123 form factor and 40mA output current. Active product status ensures long-term availability. Supply voltage range of 2.5V to 60V accommodates lower voltage applications compared to the AL5890-40P1-13. Includes PWM dimming capability and internal switch. Recommended for applications requiring package compatibility and 40mA output current specification.

MAX16835ATE+ and MAX16836ATE+ (Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated) Active linear LED drivers with 350mA output current capability, exceeding the 40mA requirement of the AL5890-40P1-13. Both devices feature PWM dimming and internal switches. Supply voltage range of 6.5V to 40V is narrower than the original part. MAX16836ATE+ explicitly lists lighting and signage applications. Automotive grade qualification available. Package form factor differs (16-TQFN vs. PowerDI™ 123), requiring PCB layout modification. Suitable for applications requiring higher output current or automotive-grade components.

NCR402UX (Nexperia USA Inc.) Active linear LED driver with 20mA output current, lower than the AL5890-40P1-13 specification. Automotive grade with AEC-Q101 qualification. Operating temperature range extends to -55°C to 150°C. Supply voltage maximum of 40V. Package form factor is 6-TSOP, requiring PCB redesign. Suitable for automotive applications with lower current requirements.

STCS2SPR (STMicroelectronics) Active linear LED driver with 2A output current capability, significantly exceeding the 40mA requirement. PWM dimming and internal switch included. Supply voltage range of 4.5V to 40V. Operating temperature range extends to -40°C to 150°C. Package form factor is 10-PowerSO, requiring PCB layout modification. Moisture sensitivity level MSL 3 (168 Hours) differs from other parts. Suitable for high-current LED applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can AL5809-40P1-7 be used as a direct replacement for AL5890-40P1-13? A: AL5809-40P1-7 shares the same PowerDI™ 123 package and 40mA output current specification, enabling direct PCB substitution. Both are Diodes Incorporated products with ROHS3 compliance. The primary difference is AL5809-40P1-7 includes PWM dimming capability and internal switch, while AL5890-40P1-13 does not. Supply voltage range differs (2.5V–60V vs. 7V–400V), requiring verification of application compatibility.

Q: Why do MAX16835ATE+ and MAX16836ATE+ have higher output current ratings? A: MAX16835ATE+ and MAX16836ATE+ are designed for higher-power LED applications with 350mA output capability. These parts are suitable for applications requiring greater current delivery than the 40mA specification of AL5890-40P1-13. Package form factor (16-TQFN) differs from the original part, necessitating PCB redesign.

Q: What is the significance of package form factor differences? A: Package form factor determines PCB footprint and layout compatibility. AL5809-40P1-7 maintains the PowerDI™ 123 package, allowing direct PCB substitution without layout modification. MAX16835ATE+, MAX16836ATE+, NCR402UX, and STCS2SPR use different packages (16-TQFN, 6-TSOP, 10-PowerSO respectively), requiring PCB redesign and thermal management evaluation.

Q: Are all substitute parts ROHS3 compliant? A: All listed substitute parts are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, matching the environmental compliance status of AL5890-40P1-13.

Q: Which substitute part is suitable for automotive applications? A: MAX16835ATE+, MAX16836ATE+, and NCR402UX carry automotive grade qualification. MAX16835ATE+ and MAX16836ATE+ include AEC-Q101 equivalent specifications. NCR402UX explicitly lists AEC-Q101 qualification.

Q: What is the operating temperature range consideration? A: AL5890-40P1-13 operates from -40°C to 105°C. AL5809-40P1-7 extends to -40°C to 125°C. NCR402UX and STCS2SPR offer wider ranges (-55°C to 150°C and -40°C to 150°C respectively). Application temperature requirements determine suitable substitutes.

Q: Does dimming capability affect substitution suitability? A: AL5890-40P1-13 lacks dimming capability. All substitute parts except NCR402UX include PWM dimming. If the application does not require dimming, PWM-capable substitutes can be configured without dimming control. If dimming is required, AL5809-40P1-7, MAX16835ATE+, MAX16836ATE+, or STCS2SPR are suitable.
