Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The AP7361C-12SPR-13 qualifies as a parametric equivalent to the AP7361C-12SP-13 based on identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Both parts share the same base product number (AP7361), output voltage (1.2V fixed), output current rating (1A), input voltage maximum (6V), dropout voltage specification (0.7V @ 1A), quiescent current (80 µA), PSRR characteristics (75dB ~ 55dB across 1kHz ~ 10kHz), operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 85°C), and package configuration (8-SOIC with exposed pad). The substitution is valid when the following criteria are met: identical output voltage and current ratings, matching input voltage specifications, equivalent thermal and protection characteristics, and identical surface-mount packaging with exposed pad design.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the AP7361C-12SP-13 and AP7361C-12SPR-13 are active products from Diodes Incorporated with full regulatory compliance. Selection between these parts is based on availability and supply chain requirements rather than electrical or mechanical differences. The AP7361C-12SP-13 maintains 904 units in current inventory, while the AP7361C-12SPR-13 has 7600 units available. Both parts carry identical RoHS3 compliance, REACH unaffected status, and MSL Level 1 moisture sensitivity rating, confirming suitability for standard PCB assembly processes without additional handling precautions. The choice between these equivalents depends on procurement lead times and inventory allocation.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are AP7361C-12SP-13 and AP7361C-12SPR-13 electrically interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both parts deliver identical electrical performance with 1.2V fixed output at 1A maximum current, 0.7V dropout voltage, 80 µA quiescent current, and matching PSRR characteristics across the specified frequency range.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably on the same PCB?

A: Yes. Both parts use identical 8-SOIC surface-mount packaging with exposed pad design and matching pin configurations, allowing direct substitution without PCB layout modifications.

Q: What is the difference between the part numbers?

A: The part numbers differ only in the packaging designation suffix. AP7361C-12SP-13 and AP7361C-12SPR-13 represent the same die and electrical specifications supplied in different tape and reel configurations from Diodes Incorporated.

Q: Are there any compliance or certification differences?

A: No. Both parts maintain identical RoHS3 compliance, REACH unaffected status, and MSL Level 1 rating. No additional handling or storage precautions are required for either variant.

Q: What operating conditions are supported by both parts?

A: Both parts operate across -40°C to 85°C ambient temperature range with integrated over-current and over-temperature protection, suitable for industrial and commercial applications.
