Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the CD4072BM is determined by strict equivalence across the following electrical and mechanical parameters:

• Logic function: 2-channel OR gate with 4 inputs per channel
• Electrical specifications: Supply voltage range 3V ~ 18V, quiescent current 1 µA maximum, output current 3.4mA
• Input logic levels: Low 1.5V ~ 4V, High 4.6V ~ 11V
• Propagation delay: 90ns maximum at 15V with 50pF load
• Operating temperature range: -55°C ~ 125°C
• Package: 14-SOIC surface mount form factor
• Compliance: ROHS3 compliant, MSL Level 1

The CD4072BM96 qualifies as a direct substitute based on identical electrical performance and package specifications. The primary distinction is packaging format and product status.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The CD4072BM96 is the direct substitute for the discontinued CD4072BM. Both parts are manufactured by Texas Instruments and share identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The CD4072BM96 maintains active product status with higher inventory availability (9656 pcs vs. 1225 pcs), ensuring supply chain continuity.

Both parts meet ROHS3 compliance and carry MSL Level 1 rating, indicating no moisture sensitivity constraints during storage and handling. The difference in packaging format (Tube vs. Cut Tape & Digi-Reel) does not affect functional compatibility and is determined by procurement and assembly requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can CD4072BM96 be used as a direct replacement for CD4072BM?

A: Yes. The CD4072BM96 is electrically and mechanically identical to the CD4072BM. Both parts deliver the same logic function, electrical performance, and operate within identical parameter ranges. The only differences are product status and packaging format.

Q: What is the difference between Tube and Cut Tape packaging?

A: Tube packaging contains loose components in a plastic tube, while Cut Tape & Digi-Reel packaging provides components on continuous tape wound on a reel. Both formats contain the same component. Selection depends on assembly equipment compatibility and procurement volume requirements.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between the two parts?

A: No. Both CD4072BM and CD4072BM96 are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and carry identical MSL Level 1 ratings. Compliance certifications are equivalent.

Q: Why is the CD4072BM discontinued?

A: The CD4072BM is discontinued at DiGi Electronics. The CD4072BM96 remains in active production and is the recommended source for new procurement.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably in PCB assembly?

A: Yes, provided the assembly process accommodates the packaging format. The 14-SOIC package dimensions are identical (0.154" width, 3.90mm). Reflow soldering parameters remain unchanged between parts.
