Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitutes for the AM26C32CDR are identified strictly according to the following parameters: type (receiver), supported protocol (RS422, RS423), number of drivers/receivers (0/4), receiver hysteresis (60 mV), voltage supply range (4.5V ~ 5.5V), mounting type (surface mount), package/case (16-SOIC, 0.154", 3.90mm width), RoHS and REACH compliance, and MSL. The temperature range and product status are also used to ensure direct compatibility and ongoing availability.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All substitute parts presented are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and have an MSL of 1 (unlimited), matching the compliance requirements of the AM26C32CDR. The substitute parts are in active product status and use the same surface-mount 16-SOIC package, ensuring compatibility for assembly and replacement in existing designs originally utilizing the AM26C32CDR.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: Which parameters must match to ensure full compatibility when substituting AM26C32CDR in a design?
A1: To ensure full compatibility, the essential parameters are the receiver type, RS422/RS423 protocol support, number of drivers/receivers (0/4), receiver hysteresis (60 mV), supply voltage range (4.5V ~ 5.5V), surface-mount 16-SOIC package, RoHS and REACH compliance, and MSL rating.

Q2: Are all listed substitute parts mechanically compatible with the AM26C32CDR?
A2: Yes, all listed substitute parts use the 16-SOIC package with a 0.154" (3.90mm) width, matching the mechanical footprint of the AM26C32CDR.

Q3: Do the substitute parts cover a wider operating temperature range than the original part?
A3: Yes, all substitutes feature an operating temperature range of -40°C to 85°C, whereas the original AM26C32CDR is rated for 0°C to 70°C.

Q4: Are there any differences in compliance or quality control for the substitute parts?
A4: All substitute parts are ROHS3 compliant, MSL 1 (unlimited), and REACH unaffected, aligning with the compliance and quality control profile of the AM26C32CDR.

Q5: Is there any change in pinout or functional arrangement among the substitutes?
A5: All substitutes maintain the same functional type, driver/receiver count, protocol, and supplier device package, supporting a drop-in replacement approach within the category.
