AM4962GSTR-G1 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The AM4962GSTR-G1 is an integrated motor driver IC manufactured by Diodes Incorporated, designed for brushless DC (BLDC) motor control applications. This fully integrated driver combines control and power stage functionality in a 16-SSOP surface mount package, operating across a 4.6V to 16V supply range with 1A output current capability. The device is currently in active production status with ROHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating (MSL 1). Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters align with the original specification, enabling direct replacement in applications where component availability or inventory requirements necessitate alternative sourcing.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The AM4961GSTR-G1 qualifies as a parametric equivalent based on alignment across all critical electrical and mechanical specifications. Substitution eligibility is determined by the following parameters:

Electrical Parameters (Must Match):

• Motor Type: Brushless DC (BLDC)
• Function: Fully Integrated Driver with Control and Power Stage
• Output Configuration: Half Bridge (2)
• Interface: PWM
• Technology: Bipolar
• Current - Output: 1A
• Voltage - Supply: 4.6V ~ 16V
• Voltage - Load: 4.6V ~ 16V
• Operating Temperature: -30°C ~ 90°C (TA)

Mechanical Parameters (Must Match):

• Mounting Type: Surface Mount
• Package / Case: 16-SSOP (0.154", 3.90mm Width)

Compliance Parameters:

• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant
• REACH Status: REACH Unaffected

The AM4961GSTR-G1 maintains identical electrical performance and mechanical compatibility while differing only in moisture sensitivity rating (MSL 3 vs. MSL 1) and inventory availability.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the AM4962GSTR-G1 and AM4961GSTR-G1 are active production devices with ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, meeting current regulatory requirements for electronic component manufacturing and distribution.

The AM4962GSTR-G1 features MSL 1 (unlimited moisture sensitivity), suitable for applications with extended storage periods or environments with variable humidity conditions prior to assembly.

The AM4961GSTR-G1 features MSL 3 (168-hour moisture sensitivity), appropriate for standard manufacturing environments with controlled storage and assembly timelines within the specified moisture exposure window.

Selection between these parts should be based on supply chain requirements, inventory availability, and manufacturing process conditions. Both devices deliver identical electrical performance and mechanical compatibility for BLDC motor driver applications operating within the specified voltage and current parameters.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the AM4961GSTR-G1 directly replace the AM4962GSTR-G1 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical specifications, output configuration, interface protocol, and 16-SSOP package dimensions. Direct substitution is electrically and mechanically compatible.

Q: What is the difference between MSL 1 and MSL 3 ratings?

A: MSL 1 indicates unlimited moisture sensitivity, allowing indefinite storage without moisture control. MSL 3 requires storage in controlled humidity conditions and limits moisture exposure to 168 hours before assembly. Selection depends on manufacturing environment and storage duration.

Q: Are both parts suitable for BLDC motor control applications?

A: Yes. Both the AM4962GSTR-G1 and AM4961GSTR-G1 are fully integrated BLDC motor drivers with identical half-bridge output configuration, PWM interface, and 1A output current capability across the 4.6V to 16V operating range.

Q: Do these parts require different PCB layouts or assembly procedures?

A: No. Both parts use the same 16-SSOP package with identical pin configuration and mechanical footprint, requiring no PCB layout modifications or assembly procedure changes.

Q: Are both parts compliant with current environmental regulations?

A: Yes. Both the AM4962GSTR-G1 and AM4961GSTR-G1 are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current regulatory requirements for electronic component manufacturing and distribution.
