Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the AM26C31ING4 is determined by strict equivalence across the following parameters:

• Base product number (AM26C31)
• Driver/receiver configuration (4/0)
• Package type (16-DIP)
• Electrical specifications (4.5V ~ 5.5V supply, -40°C ~ 85°C operating range)
• Compliance certifications (ROHS3, REACH Unaffected, EAR99)

The AM26C31IN qualifies as a direct substitute based on identical electrical characteristics, package specifications, and regulatory compliance. The primary distinction is product status: AM26C31ING4 is discontinued, while AM26C31IN remains active in production.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The AM26C31IN is the direct substitute for the AM26C31ING4. Both parts share identical electrical specifications, package dimensions, and regulatory compliance certifications. Selection of AM26C31IN is supported by its active product status, ensuring ongoing availability and supply chain continuity. The packaging difference (Tube for AM26C31IN versus unspecified for AM26C31ING4) does not affect functional compatibility or board-level integration.
