ICM7260IPE Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The ICM7260IPE is a Counter/Timer Circuit (CTC) binary integrated circuit manufactured by Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated, operating at 15MHz with a 16-PDIP through-hole package. This device is classified as obsolete, which necessitates identification of active equivalent components for ongoing design support and production requirements. The ICM7260IPE supports count ranges from 1 to 59 and operates across a supply voltage range of 2V to 16V with a current draw of 700 µA.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the ICM7260IPE is determined by strict alignment of the following electrical and mechanical parameters:

• Frequency: 15MHz (exact match required)
• Package / Case: 16-DIP (0.300", 7.62mm) (exact match required)
• Mounting Type: Through Hole (exact match required)
• Voltage - Supply: 2V ~ 16V (exact match required)
• Current - Supply: 700 µA (exact match required)
• Operating Temperature: -20°C ~ 85°C (exact match required)
• Type: Counter/Timer Circuit (CTC), Binary (exact match required)

The ICM7250IPE+ qualifies as a direct substitute based on identical electrical specifications and package configuration. The primary distinction is the expanded count range capability (1 ~ 99 versus 1 ~ 59) and active product status, which provides superior long-term availability and compliance posture.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The ICM7250IPE+ is the qualified substitute for the obsolete ICM7260IPE. Selection of the ICM7250IPE+ is supported by:

• Identical electrical performance across all critical parameters (frequency, voltage, current, temperature range)
• Identical mechanical compatibility (16-DIP through-hole package)
• Active product status ensuring continued availability and supply chain stability
• ROHS3 compliance, providing regulatory advantage over the non-compliant ICM7260IPE
• Extended count range (1 ~ 99) that encompasses the original part's operational envelope (1 ~ 59), ensuring functional compatibility in all existing applications

No design modifications are required for direct substitution in applications currently using the ICM7260IPE.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the ICM7250IPE+ directly replace the ICM7260IPE in existing designs?

A: Yes. The ICM7250IPE+ is electrically and mechanically identical to the ICM7260IPE across all critical parameters. The 16-DIP through-hole package, frequency, voltage range, current draw, and operating temperature are identical. No PCB modifications or design changes are required.

Q: What is the difference between the ICM7260IPE and ICM7250IPE+?

A: The primary differences are product status and count range. The ICM7260IPE is obsolete with a count range of 1 ~ 59, while the ICM7250IPE+ is active with an extended count range of 1 ~ 99. The ICM7250IPE+ also carries ROHS3 compliance, whereas the ICM7260IPE is non-compliant.

Q: Why is the ICM7260IPE obsolete?

A: The ICM7260IPE has been discontinued by the manufacturer. The ICM7250IPE+ is the active equivalent that provides superior long-term availability and regulatory compliance.

Q: Are there any compatibility concerns with the extended count range of the ICM7250IPE+?

A: No. The extended count range (1 ~ 99) of the ICM7250IPE+ is a superset of the original part's range (1 ~ 59). Applications designed for the ICM7260IPE will operate within the compatible range of the substitute.

Q: What is the package configuration for both parts?

A: Both the ICM7260IPE and ICM7250IPE+ use a 16-DIP (0.300", 7.62mm) through-hole package. Pin-to-pin compatibility is maintained, allowing direct socket substitution.

Q: Does the ICM7250IPE+ meet current regulatory requirements?

A: Yes. The ICM7250IPE+ is ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current regulatory standards. The obsolete ICM7260IPE is RoHS non-compliant.
