CDCLVP1212RHAR Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The CDCLVP1212RHAR is a Clock Fanout Buffer (Distribution) Multiplexer IC manufactured by Texas Instruments, designed for high-speed clock distribution applications. This 2:12 clock buffer operates at frequencies up to 2 GHz and supports multiple input standards (LVCMOS, LVDS, LVPECL, LVTTL) with LVPECL output. The device is housed in a 40-VFQFN Exposed Pad surface mount package and is currently in active production status with full RoHS3 compliance.

Substitute parts are identified when they maintain identical electrical performance specifications and mechanical compatibility while differing only in packaging format or inventory source designation.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The CDCLVP1212RHAT qualifies as a parametric equivalent to the CDCLVP1212RHAR based on the following substitution criteria:

Identical Electrical Parameters:

• Ratio - Input:Output: 2:12
• Frequency - Max: 2 GHz
• Input Standards: LVCMOS, LVDS, LVPECL, LVTTL
• Output Standard: LVPECL
• Voltage - Supply: 2.375V ~ 3.6V
• Operating Temperature: -40°C ~ 85°C
• Number of Circuits: 1

Identical Mechanical Parameters:

• Package / Case: 40-VFQFN Exposed Pad
• Supplier Device Package: 40-VQFN (6x6)
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount

Identical Compliance & Certifications:

• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL): 3 (168 Hours)
• REACH Status: REACH Unaffected
• ECCN: EAR99
• HTSUS: 8542.39.0001

The only difference between these parts is the packaging format: CDCLVP1212RHAR is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) & Digi-Reel® format, while CDCLVP1212RHAT is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format. Both parts share the same base product number (CDCLVP1212) and are manufactured by Texas Instruments.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the CDCLVP1212RHAR and CDCLVP1212RHAT are active production parts from Texas Instruments with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection between these parts should be based on packaging and procurement requirements:

CDCLVP1212RHAR (Cut Tape & Digi-Reel®): Suitable for applications requiring smaller order quantities or mixed component procurement where cut tape format is preferred for manual assembly or low-volume production runs.

CDCLVP1212RHAT (Tape & Reel): Suitable for high-volume automated assembly operations where standard tape and reel packaging is required for pick-and-place equipment compatibility.

Both parts maintain full RoHS3 compliance and REACH compliance status, ensuring regulatory conformance for industrial and commercial applications. The identical MSL rating (3, 168 Hours) indicates equivalent moisture handling requirements during storage and assembly.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can CDCLVP1212RHAT be used as a direct replacement for CDCLVP1212RHAR?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical. The only difference is packaging format (Cut Tape vs. Tape & Reel). Direct substitution is valid for applications where the packaging format change does not affect assembly processes.

Q: What is the difference between Cut Tape (CT) & Digi-Reel® and Tape & Reel (TR) packaging?

A: Cut Tape format provides individual component strips suitable for manual handling and lower-volume applications. Tape & Reel format provides continuous component reels optimized for automated pick-and-place assembly equipment in high-volume manufacturing.

Q: Are there any electrical performance differences between these parts?

A: No. Both parts have identical electrical specifications including frequency rating (2 GHz), input/output standards, supply voltage range (2.375V ~ 3.6V), and operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 85°C).

Q: Do both parts have the same moisture sensitivity requirements?

A: Yes. Both parts have MSL rating 3 (168 Hours), indicating identical moisture handling and storage requirements.

Q: Are both parts RoHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. Both CDCLVP1212RHAR and CDCLVP1212RHAT are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current environmental and regulatory standards.

Q: Which part should I select for automated assembly?

A: CDCLVP1212RHAT (Tape & Reel format) is optimized for automated pick-and-place assembly equipment. CDCLVP1212RHAR (Cut Tape format) is better suited for manual assembly or lower-volume production.
