Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the ICS180M-53 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Maximum frequency output: 28MHz
• Supply voltage range: 3.135V ~ 5.5V
• Operating temperature range: 0°C ~ 70°C
• Package type: 8-SOIC (0.154", 3.90mm Width)
• Mounting type: Surface Mount
• Functional architecture: Spread Spectrum Clock Generator with PLL
• Input/Output configuration: Clock or Crystal input, CMOS output
• Circuit count: 1
• Input:Output ratio: 1:1
• Differential capability: No/No

The substitute part 180M-01LF meets all electrical and mechanical parameters required for direct substitution. Both parts share the same base product number (180M) and are manufactured by Renesas Electronics Corporation, confirming functional and pin compatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 180M-01LF is a direct parametric equivalent to the ICS180M-53 across all electrical and mechanical specifications. Both devices are obsolete products from Renesas Electronics Corporation with identical functional characteristics and package configurations.

A key distinction exists in regulatory compliance: the 180M-01LF carries ROHS3 compliance certification, whereas the ICS180M-53 is RoHS non-compliant. For applications subject to RoHS directives or environmental regulations, the 180M-01LF provides compliance advantage while maintaining full electrical and mechanical compatibility.

Both parts carry REACH Unaffected status and EAR99 export classification. Moisture sensitivity level is equivalent at MSL 1 (Unlimited) for both variants.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 180M-01LF directly replace the ICS180M-53 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The 180M-01LF is a parametric equivalent across all electrical and mechanical parameters. Pin configuration, package dimensions, voltage supply range, frequency output, and operating temperature range are identical. No circuit modifications are required for direct substitution.

Q: What is the difference between ICS180M-53 and 180M-01LF?

A: The primary difference is RoHS compliance status. The 180M-01LF is ROHS3 compliant, while the ICS180M-53 is RoHS non-compliant. All other specifications, including electrical performance, package type, and functional architecture, are identical.

Q: Are both parts available in the same packaging?

A: Both parts use 8-SOIC (0.154", 3.90mm Width) surface mount packaging. The ICS180M-53 is supplied in standard packaging, while the 180M-01LF is available in Tube packaging. The physical package dimensions and pin configuration are identical.

Q: What is the significance of the base product number 180M?

A: The base product number 180M indicates the core device family. Both ICS180M-53 and 180M-01LF share this base designation, confirming they are variants of the same fundamental clock generator architecture with identical functional specifications.

Q: Are there any temperature or voltage derating considerations between these parts?

A: No. Both parts operate across the identical temperature range (0°C ~ 70°C) and supply voltage range (3.135V ~ 5.5V). Operating conditions and derating curves are equivalent.

Q: What is the moisture sensitivity level for these parts?

A: Both parts carry MSL 1 (Unlimited), indicating unlimited shelf life under standard storage conditions without moisture bake requirements prior to soldering.
