Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the AWL9293V2 is determined by the following critical parameters:

RF Compatibility: The substitute part must support 802.11b/g/n wireless standards at 2.4GHz frequency band to maintain functional equivalence in WLAN applications.

Package Compatibility: Both the main part and substitute must use the 16-XFQFN Exposed Pad package with 2.5x2.5mm dimensions to ensure PCB layout compatibility without redesign.

Mounting Technology: Surface mount technology is required for both parts to maintain assembly process consistency.

Compliance Requirements: ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating ensure environmental and manufacturing process compatibility.

Product Status Consideration: Active product status of the substitute ensures ongoing availability and manufacturing support, addressing the obsolescence of the original part.

The SKY85303-21 meets all substitution criteria through identical package specifications, compatible RF frequency band, and active product status from the same manufacturer.
