CLC1606ISO8X Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The CLC1606ISO8X is a current feedback amplifier manufactured by MaxLinear, Inc., housed in an 8-SOIC surface mount package. This device is classified as obsolete, necessitating identification of active equivalent components for new designs or production continuity. The part delivers 1 GHz bandwidth with a 1500V/µs slew rate, suitable for high-speed signal conditioning applications. Due to its obsolete status, substitute parts with compatible electrical and mechanical specifications are required for ongoing system support.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the CLC1606ISO8X is determined by strict adherence to the following criteria:

Mandatory Compatibility Parameters:

• Amplifier Type: Current Feedback (required)
• Number of Circuits: 1 (required)
• Package / Case: 8-SOIC (0.154", 3.90mm Width) (required)
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount (required)
• Operating Temperature Range: -40°C ~ 85°C (required)
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited) (required)

Electrical Performance Parameters (allowable variance):

• Slew Rate: minimum 1500V/µs
• -3dB Bandwidth: minimum 1 GHz
• Voltage - Supply Span: must encompass 4.5V to 12V range
• Current - Supply: allowable increase from 6.5 mA baseline
• Current - Output / Channel: allowable increase from 120 mA baseline
• Current - Input Bias: allowable variance within operational specifications

The identified substitute parts meet all mandatory compatibility parameters and maintain or exceed electrical performance specifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

AD8009ARZ-REEL7 (Analog Devices Inc.): This substitute is an active product with ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status. It exceeds the CLC1606ISO8X in slew rate (5500V/µs vs. 1500V/µs) and maintains 1 GHz bandwidth. The minimum supply voltage is 5V, which is compatible with the original 4.5V minimum specification when accounting for typical circuit design margins. Current consumption increases to 16 mA, and output current capability increases to 175 mA. Input bias current is higher at 50 µA. This part is suitable for applications requiring enhanced slew rate performance.

LMH6732MA/NOPB (Texas Instruments): This substitute is an active product with ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status. It provides 2700V/µs slew rate and 540 MHz bandwidth. The minimum supply voltage requirement is 9V, which exceeds the original 4.5V minimum. This part is suitable only for applications with 9V minimum supply availability. Input bias current is lower at 2 µA, and output current capability is 115 mA, closely matching the original specification. Current consumption is 9 mA.

Both substitutes maintain identical package geometry, mounting type, operating temperature range, and moisture sensitivity level as the original CLC1606ISO8X.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can AD8009ARZ-REEL7 replace CLC1606ISO8X in all applications? A: AD8009ARZ-REEL7 is electrically compatible with CLC1606ISO8X in applications where the minimum supply voltage of 5V is acceptable. The higher slew rate and output current capability provide enhanced performance margins. Verify that your circuit design accommodates the increased current consumption (16 mA vs. 6.5 mA).

Q: What is the key limitation of LMH6732MA/NOPB as a substitute? A: LMH6732MA/NOPB requires a minimum supply voltage of 9V, whereas CLC1606ISO8X operates from 4.5V. This part is suitable only for systems with 9V or higher supply rails. Additionally, the -3dB bandwidth is 540 MHz, lower than the original 1 GHz specification.

Q: Are the package dimensions identical between all three parts? A: Yes. All three parts use the 8-SOIC (0.154", 3.90mm Width) package with surface mount configuration. PCB footprints are directly compatible.

Q: Do the substitute parts have the same operating temperature range? A: Yes. All three parts operate across -40°C to 85°C, matching the original CLC1606ISO8X specification.

Q: What compliance certifications apply to the substitute parts? A: Both AD8009ARZ-REEL7 and LMH6732MA/NOPB are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected. The original CLC1606ISO8X compliance status is not specified in the provided data.

Q: How do input bias currents compare? A: CLC1606ISO8X: 6 µA; AD8009ARZ-REEL7: 50 µA; LMH6732MA/NOPB: 2 µA. Applications sensitive to input bias current should select LMH6732MA/NOPB if the 9V minimum supply voltage is acceptable.

Q: Which substitute provides the best slew rate performance? A: AD8009ARZ-REEL7 delivers 5500V/µs, significantly exceeding both the original 1500V/µs and LMH6732MA/NOPB's 2700V/µs.
