Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the HCPL-2601#320 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Isolation Voltage: 5000Vrms minimum
• Output Configuration: Open Collector, Schottky Clamped topology
• Number of Channels: Single channel (1)
• Data Rate: 10MBd minimum
• Common Mode Transient Immunity: 10kV/µs minimum
• Package Type: 8-SMD, Gull Wing form factor
• Supply Voltage Range: 4.5V ~ 5.5V compatibility
• Propagation Delay: Maximum 100ns for both tpLH and tpHL

The direct substitute HCPL-2601-320E maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications while offering improved product status and compliance certifications. Additional cross-substitutes (FOD260LSD, FOD260LS) are available from alternative manufacturers but require full parameter verification before implementation.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The HCPL-2601-320E is the direct equivalent substitute for the HCPL-2601#320. Both components share identical electrical specifications and package configuration. The primary distinction is product status: HCPL-2601-320E is currently active with improved availability (2210 pcs in stock versus 1077 pcs for the original part). Additionally, HCPL-2601-320E carries ROHS3 compliance certification, whereas the original part is RoHS non-compliant. For new designs or systems requiring regulatory compliance, HCPL-2601-320E is the preferred selection. For legacy system maintenance where RoHS compliance is not a requirement, both parts are electrically interchangeable.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can HCPL-2601-320E be used as a direct replacement for HCPL-2601#320?

A: Yes. Both parts are manufactured by Broadcom Limited and maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters including isolation voltage, output configuration, data rate, propagation delay, and package type.

Q: What is the difference between HCPL-2601#320 and HCPL-2601-320E?

A: The primary differences are product status and compliance certification. HCPL-2601-320E is currently active with higher inventory availability and carries ROHS3 compliance. The original HCPL-2601#320 is discontinued and RoHS non-compliant. Electrical performance is identical.

Q: Are FOD260LSD and FOD260LS compatible with HCPL-2601#320?

A: FOD260LSD and FOD260LS are listed as cross-substitutes but originate from alternative manufacturers. Full parameter verification against your specific application requirements is necessary before implementation, as these parts may have different packaging, compliance certifications, or performance characteristics not detailed in this reference.

Q: What packaging format is used for HCPL-2601-320E?

A: HCPL-2601-320E uses 8-SMD, Gull Wing surface mount package configuration, identical to the original HCPL-2601#320. Tube packaging is specified for the substitute part.

Q: Is HCPL-2601-320E suitable for applications requiring RoHS compliance?

A: Yes. HCPL-2601-320E carries ROHS3 compliance certification, making it suitable for applications with RoHS regulatory requirements. The original HCPL-2601#320 is RoHS non-compliant.
