HCPL-7800#500 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The HCPL-7800#500 is an isolation amplifier integrated circuit manufactured by Broadcom Limited, designed for single-circuit isolation applications in 8-DIP Gull Wing surface mount packaging. This component provides galvanic isolation with a -3dB bandwidth of 100 kHz and operates across a 4.5 V to 5.5 V supply range.

The HCPL-7800#500 is discontinued at DiGi Electronics. Identifying equivalent substitute parts is necessary to maintain design continuity and ensure component availability for production and repair applications. Substitute parts must maintain identical electrical specifications, mechanical compatibility, and functional performance within the defined operating parameters.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the HCPL-7800#500 is determined by strict equivalence across all electrical and mechanical parameters. The substitute part must satisfy the following criteria:

Electrical Equivalence Requirements:

• Isolation amplifier topology with single circuit configuration
• -3dB bandwidth of 100 kHz
• Input bias current of 500 nA
• Input offset voltage of 300 µV
• Supply current of 10.9 mA
• Output current per channel of 16 mA
• Supply voltage range of 4.5 V to 5.5 V
• Operating temperature range of -40°C to 85°C

Mechanical Equivalence Requirements:

• 8-pin surface mount package with Gull Wing lead configuration
• Identical pinout and footprint compatibility
• Moisture sensitivity level MSL 1 (Unlimited)

The HCPL-7800-500E meets all specified electrical and mechanical parameters and is classified as a direct substitute for the discontinued HCPL-7800#500.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The HCPL-7800-500E is the direct substitute for the discontinued HCPL-7800#500. Both parts are manufactured by Broadcom Limited and share identical electrical specifications and mechanical packaging.

Product Status Consideration: The HCPL-7800-500E maintains active product status with higher inventory availability (6262 pieces in stock versus 681 pieces for the discontinued part). This ensures long-term supply chain reliability for new designs and production runs.

Compliance Consideration: The HCPL-7800-500E is ROHS3 compliant, whereas the HCPL-7800#500 is RoHS non-compliant. For applications subject to RoHS regulations or customer requirements mandating RoHS compliance, the HCPL-7800-500E is the appropriate selection. Both parts maintain REACH Unaffected status and EAR99 export classification.

Packaging Consideration: The HCPL-7800-500E is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) and Digi-Reel® packaging formats, providing flexibility for both manual assembly and automated production environments.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the HCPL-7800-500E be used as a direct replacement for the HCPL-7800#500?

A: Yes. The HCPL-7800-500E is electrically and mechanically equivalent to the HCPL-7800#500. All electrical parameters, including bandwidth, bias current, offset voltage, supply current, output current, supply voltage range, and operating temperature range are identical. The 8-pin Gull Wing surface mount package is identical, ensuring footprint and pinout compatibility.

Q: What is the difference between the HCPL-7800#500 and HCPL-7800-500E?

A: The primary differences are product status and regulatory compliance. The HCPL-7800#500 is discontinued and RoHS non-compliant. The HCPL-7800-500E is an active product with ROHS3 compliance. Electrical and mechanical specifications are identical.

Q: Are there any packaging differences between these parts?
