AP2401AMP-13 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The AP2401AMP-13 is a P-Channel power switch/driver IC manufactured by Diodes Incorporated, designed for USB switching applications with 1:1 input-to-output ratio and high-side output configuration. This component operates across a 2.7V to 5.5V load voltage range with a maximum output current of 2A and typical on-resistance of 70mOhm. The part is classified as obsolete, making equivalent and substitute parts necessary for new designs and ongoing production requirements. Substitute parts must maintain electrical compatibility across voltage ratings, current capacity, output configuration, and fault protection mechanisms while accommodating packaging and product status considerations.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the AP2401AMP-13 are qualified based on the following electrical and mechanical parameters:

Primary Substitution Criteria:

• Output Type: P-Channel (required match)
• Output Configuration: High Side (required match)
• Voltage - Load: 2.7V ~ 5.5V (required match)
• Package / Case: 8-TSSOP, 8-MSOP with Exposed Pad (required match)
• Rds On (Typ): 70mOhm (required match)
• Operating Temperature: -40°C ~ 85°C (required match)
• Fault Protection: Current Limiting (Fixed), Over Temperature, Reverse Current, UVLO (required match)

Secondary Substitution Criteria:

• Current - Output (Max): 2A or higher (equal or greater capacity acceptable)
• Input Type: Inverting or Non-Inverting (functional difference noted)
• Features: Load Discharge and Status Flag (core features required; Slew Rate Controlled optional)
• Product Status: Active preferred for new designs; Obsolete acceptable for legacy support

All substitute parts maintain identical load voltage range, package footprint, thermal operating range, and core fault protection architecture. Current capacity variations and input type differences are documented to enable informed selection based on circuit requirements.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Recommendation: AP2511MP-13

The AP2511MP-13 is the manufacturer-recommended substitute. It maintains all critical electrical parameters (voltage range, output configuration, fault protection) while offering increased current capacity (2.5A vs. 2A) and active product status. The non-inverting input type requires circuit logic verification but provides functional equivalence. Tape & Reel packaging supports production environments.

Secondary Recommendations: AP2311AMP-13, AP2411AMP-13, AP2511AMP-13

These parts provide parametric equivalence with active product status and identical electrical specifications to the main part. All three maintain 2A output current, non-inverting input logic, and complete feature sets including slew rate control. Tape & Reel packaging ensures manufacturing compatibility. Selection among these three depends on inventory availability and supply chain considerations.

Legacy Support: AP2301AMP-13, AP2501AMP-13

These obsolete parts maintain full electrical equivalence but lack active product status. Use only when existing inventory supports legacy production or when new design migration is not feasible.

Input Type Consideration

The AP2401AMP-13 features inverting input logic, while all substitute parts employ non-inverting input logic. Circuit designs must accommodate this functional difference through appropriate signal conditioning or logic inversion at the control interface.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can AP2511MP-13 replace AP2401AMP-13 directly?

A: AP2511MP-13 is electrically compatible across all critical parameters: load voltage range (2.7V–5.5V), output configuration (high-side P-Channel), package footprint (8-MSOP-EP), and fault protection mechanisms. The higher current rating (2.5A vs. 2A) provides design margin. However, the input type differs (non-inverting vs. inverting), requiring circuit logic verification before implementation.

Q: What is the difference between inverting and non-inverting input types?

A: Inverting input (AP2401AMP-13) activates the switch with a low logic signal. Non-inverting input (all substitutes) activates the switch with a high logic signal. Circuit designs must apply appropriate signal conditioning to maintain intended switch behavior.

Q: Are all substitute parts pin-compatible?

A: Yes. All substitute parts use the 8-MSOP-EP package with identical pinout and exposed pad configuration, enabling direct PCB footprint compatibility.

Q: Why is AP2511MP-13 recommended over other active alternatives?

A: AP2511MP-13 is the manufacturer-designated recommended substitute, combining active product status with enhanced current capacity (2.5A). This provides both long-term supply assurance and design margin for current-limited applications.

Q: Can I use AP2301AMP-13 or AP2501AMP-13 in new designs?

A: Both parts maintain full electrical equivalence but carry obsolete product status. New designs should prioritize active parts (AP2511MP-13, AP2311AMP-13, AP2411AMP-13, AP2511AMP-13) to ensure long-term supply availability and manufacturing support.

Q: What packaging formats are available?

A: AP2511MP-13, AP2311AMP-13, AP2411AMP-13, and AP2511AMP-13 are supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format for production environments. AP2401AMP-13, AP2301AMP-13, and AP2501AMP-13 lack specified packaging format designation.

Q: Do all parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes. All parts are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and classified under ECCN EAR99 with identical HTSUS code (8542.39.0001). Moisture sensitivity level is 1 (Unlimited) across all variants.
