Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the LMH0024MA is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

• Manufacturer and base product number (LMH0024 series from Texas Instruments)
• Functional application support (SMPTE 259M / 344M serial interface)
• Electrical specifications (3.3V supply voltage)
• Physical packaging (16-SOIC surface mount configuration)
• Package dimensions (0.154", 3.90mm width)
• Interface classification (Serial)

The LMH0024MA/NOPB qualifies as a direct substitute based on identical alignment across all these parameters. The primary distinction between the main part and its substitute is product status and regulatory compliance posture.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The LMH0024MA/NOPB is the direct substitute for the obsolete LMH0024MA. Selection of the LMH0024MA/NOPB is supported by the following factors:

• Active product status ensures ongoing availability and manufacturer support
• ROHS3 compliance aligns with current regulatory requirements for electronic components
• Identical electrical and mechanical specifications guarantee functional compatibility
• Tube packaging provides standard handling and storage conditions for surface mount components
• All critical parameters including supply voltage, interface type, and package configuration remain unchanged

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the LMH0024MA/NOPB be used as a direct replacement for the LMH0024MA?

A: Yes. The LMH0024MA/NOPB is a direct substitute. All functional parameters, electrical specifications, and physical packaging are identical. The primary differences are product status (active versus obsolete) and RoHS compliance posture.

Q: What does the "/NOPB" suffix indicate?

A: The "/NOPB" suffix designates "No Plumbum" (lead-free) packaging, indicating compliance with RoHS3 regulations. This is a packaging and compliance designation that does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility.

Q: Are there any compatibility concerns when substituting the LMH0024MA with the LMH0024MA/NOPB?

A: No compatibility concerns exist. Both parts share identical 16-SOIC package dimensions, mounting type, supply voltage, and SMPTE 259M / 344M interface specifications. PCB layouts and circuit designs require no modification.

Q: What is the significance of the obsolete status of the LMH0024MA?

A: Obsolete status indicates that Texas Instruments has discontinued manufacturing and support for the LMH0024MA. The LMH0024MA/NOPB remains in active production and is the recommended source for new inventory and future designs.

Q: Are the moisture sensitivity levels identical between both parts?

A: Yes. Both the LMH0024MA and LMH0024MA/NOPB carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) classification, indicating no moisture sensitivity constraints during storage or handling.
