Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the KP236N6165XTMA2 is determined by the following critical parameters:

  • Identical pressure measurement range (8.7PSI ~ 23.93PSI / 60kPa ~ 165kPa)
  • Absolute pressure type classification
  • Analog voltage output configuration
  • Matching supply voltage specification (4.5V ~ 5.5V)
  • Equivalent accuracy rating (±0.29PSI / ±2kPa)
  • Identical operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 125°C)
  • Same package type (8-SMD Module)
  • Surface mount termination style
  • Automotive grade with AEC-Q100 qualification
  • ROHS3 compliance

The KP236N6165XTMA1 qualifies as a direct substitute based on these parameters. Both parts share the same base product number (KP236N6165) and maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications within the allowed tolerance parameters.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The KP236N6165XTMA1 is the qualified substitute for the discontinued KP236N6165XTMA2. Both parts maintain identical automotive-grade specifications and AEC-Q100 qualification status. The KP236N6165XTMA1 is currently active in production with higher inventory availability (2789 Pcs), compared to the discontinued status of the original part.

The output voltage range difference (0.1V ~ 4.85V versus 0.2V ~ 4.8V) represents a minor specification variation that does not affect functional compatibility within standard automotive pressure sensing applications. Both parts are ROHS3 compliant and carry identical accuracy, temperature range, and supply voltage specifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can KP236N6165XTMA1 be used as a direct replacement for KP236N6165XTMA2?
