Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the AP1601M10G-13 is determined by the following critical parameters:

  • Boost topology with positive adjustable output configuration
  • Input voltage range compatibility (minimum 1.1V to 5.5V maximum)
  • Output voltage range (2V to 5.5V adjustable)
  • Output current capability (1.5A switch current)
  • Surface mount packaging suitable for PCB integration
  • Operating temperature range (-40°C to 85°C)
  • Regulatory compliance (ROHS3, REACH Unaffected, EAR99)

The MAX8569AEUT+T qualifies as a manufacturer-recommended substitute based on matching boost topology, adjustable output configuration, overlapping voltage specifications, and equivalent operating temperature range. Both devices maintain ROHS3 compliance and surface mount implementation.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MAX8569AEUT+T is the manufacturer-recommended substitute for the obsolete AP1601M10G-13. Both devices share identical boost topology, adjustable output voltage range (2V to 5.5V), and operating temperature specifications (-40°C to 85°C). Both maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH Unaffected status.

Key differences exist in output current capability and package form factor. The AP1601M10G-13 provides 1.5A switch current in a 10-MSOP package, while the MAX8569AEUT+T delivers 750mA in a smaller SOT-23-6 package. The MAX8569AEUT+T includes an integrated synchronous rectifier, which the AP1601M10G-13 does not feature.

Selection between these devices depends on application current requirements. Applications requiring output currents exceeding 750mA must evaluate alternative boost regulators with higher current ratings. Applications within the 750mA limit can proceed with the MAX8569AEUT+T as a direct functional substitute, with consideration for the smaller package footprint and improved efficiency from the synchronous rectifier implementation.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the MAX8569AEUT+T directly replace the AP1601M10G-13 in all applications?

A: Functional substitution is possible for applications requiring output currents up to 750mA. The AP1601M10G-13 supports 1.5A output current. Applications exceeding 750mA output current cannot use the MAX8569AEUT+T as a substitute.

Q: What are the package differences between these devices?

A: The AP1601M10G-13 uses a 10-MSOP package (0.118" width, 3.00mm), while the MAX8569AEUT+T uses SOT-23-6. PCB layout modifications are required for package substitution.

Q: Are the input voltage ranges compatible?

A: Both devices support 5.5V maximum input voltage. The AP1601M10G-13 accepts input as low as 1.1V, while the MAX8569AEUT+T minimum input is 1.5V. Applications operating below 1.5V input voltage cannot use the MAX8569AEUT+T.

Q: Do both devices support the same output voltage range?

A: Yes. Both the AP1601M10G-13 and MAX8569AEUT+T provide adjustable output from 2V to 5.5V.

Q: What is the significance of the synchronous rectifier in the MAX8569AEUT+T?

A: The MAX8569AEUT+T includes an integrated synchronous rectifier, which reduces conduction losses compared to the AP1601M10G-13 asynchronous design. This results in improved efficiency and reduced thermal dissipation.

Q: Are both devices RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both the AP1601M10G-13 and MAX8569AEUT+T are ROHS3 compliant and REACH Unaffected.
