ICS180MI-01 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The ICS180MI-01 is a Spread Spectrum Clock Generator IC manufactured by Renesas Electronics Corporation, designed to generate a 28MHz clock output from clock or crystal input. This device operates across a 3.135V to 5.5V supply range and is housed in an 8-SOIC surface mount package. The ICS180MI-01 is classified as obsolete, making identification of active equivalent parts essential for new designs and ongoing production support.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The 180MI-01LF qualifies as a direct substitute for the ICS180MI-01 based on the following matching parameters:

• Identical manufacturer (Renesas Electronics Corporation)
• Identical functional type (Spread Spectrum Clock Generator)
• Identical maximum frequency (28MHz)
• Identical input/output configuration (Clock/Crystal input, CMOS output)
• Identical PLL functionality
• Identical supply voltage range (3.135V ~ 5.5V)
• Identical operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 85°C)
• Identical package type and dimensions (8-SOIC, 0.154", 3.90mm Width)
• Identical number of circuits (1)
• Identical input:output ratio (1:1)

The primary distinction is product status: the ICS180MI-01 is obsolete, while the 180MI-01LF is active. Additionally, the 180MI-01LF achieves ROHS3 compliance, whereas the original part is RoHS non-compliant.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 180MI-01LF is the direct functional equivalent of the ICS180MI-01. Selection of the 180MI-01LF is appropriate for applications requiring an active, supported component with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The 180MI-01LF provides the additional benefit of ROHS3 compliance, meeting modern regulatory requirements for new designs and production environments subject to RoHS directives.

For legacy systems currently using the ICS180MI-01, the 180MI-01LF provides pin-compatible, functionally identical operation without circuit redesign. Both components share identical package geometry, supply voltage requirements, operating temperature range, and clock generation characteristics.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 180MI-01LF directly replace the ICS180MI-01 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The 180MI-01LF is functionally and mechanically identical to the ICS180MI-01. Both devices operate at 28MHz, accept clock or crystal input, provide CMOS output, and are housed in the same 8-SOIC package. No circuit modifications are required.

Q: What is the primary reason to transition from ICS180MI-01 to 180MI-01LF?

A: The ICS180MI-01 is classified as obsolete. The 180MI-01LF is an active product from the same manufacturer with identical specifications, ensuring continued availability and supply chain reliability.

Q: Are there compliance differences between these parts?

A: Yes. The 180MI-01LF is ROHS3 compliant, while the ICS180MI-01 is RoHS non-compliant. For applications subject to RoHS regulations, the 180MI-01LF is the required choice.

Q: Do both parts have the same moisture sensitivity level?

A: Yes. Both the ICS180MI-01 and 180MI-01LF have MSL 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions during storage or handling.

Q: Are the supply voltage and operating temperature ranges identical?

A: Yes. Both parts operate across 3.135V to 5.5V supply voltage and -40°C to 85°C operating temperature range.
