Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the obsolete LM3215TLE-45/NOPB is determined by the following criteria:

  • Functional Classification: Both the main part and substitute must operate as step-down voltage regulators within the Power Management (PMIC) category
  • Regulatory Compliance: Substitute parts must maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status to ensure regulatory continuity
  • Moisture Sensitivity: MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited) ensures handling and storage compatibility
  • Export Classification: ECCN EAR99 classification must be maintained for supply chain consistency
  • Manufacturer Continuity: Texas Instruments as the original manufacturer provides design heritage and technical support alignment

The TPS62801YKAR qualifies as a direct substitute based on these parameters, offering active product status with equivalent compliance certifications.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The TPS62801YKAR is the designated substitute for the obsolete LM3215TLE-45/NOPB based on the following engineering criteria:

  • Product Status Transition: The substitute transitions from an obsolete component to an active product with ongoing manufacturer support and availability
  • Regulatory Alignment: Both components maintain identical ROHS3 compliance, REACH unaffected status, and EAR99 export classification, ensuring regulatory continuity in system designs
  • Compliance Certifications: Matching MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited) and identical HTSUS classification (8542.39.0001) confirm compatibility within supply chain and manufacturing processes
  • Manufacturer Consistency: Continued reliance on Texas Instruments as the component manufacturer preserves design heritage, technical documentation access, and long-term support

Selection of the TPS62801YKAR eliminates obsolescence risk while maintaining full regulatory and compliance alignment with the original LM3215TLE-45/NOPB specification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Why is the LM3215TLE-45/NOPB obsolete? A: The LM3215TLE-45/NOPB has reached end-of-life status with Texas Instruments. The TPS62801YKAR is the active substitute that maintains functional and regulatory equivalence.

Q: What are the key substitution criteria for this component? A: Substitution is based on Power Management (PMIC) category classification, ROHS3 compliance, MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited), REACH unaffected status, EAR99 export classification, and Texas Instruments manufacturer continuity.

Q: Are there package differences between the LM3215TLE-45/NOPB and TPS62801YKAR? A: The LM3215TLE-45/NOPB package specifications are not provided in the available data. The TPS62801YKAR is supplied in 6-DSBGA (1.05x0.70) package with Surface Mount mounting type. Physical compatibility must be verified against original design specifications.

Q: Does the TPS62801YKAR maintain the same compliance certifications? A: Yes. Both components are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, classified as EAR99 for export purposes, and share identical HTSUS code 8542.39.0001.

Q: What is the inventory status of the substitute part? A: The TPS62801YKAR has 9,200 pieces in stock as new original inventory, ensuring immediate availability for procurement and production requirements.
