Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the LMZ14201HTZE/NOPB is determined by equivalence across all electrical performance parameters, mechanical form factor, and regulatory compliance specifications. The primary differentiator between the main part and its substitute is the packaging configuration supplied by the manufacturer.

The LMZ14201HTZE/NOPB is supplied in Tube packaging, while the substitute part LMZ14201HTZ/NOPB is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) and Digi-Reel® packaging. Both parts share the identical base product number (LMZ14201) and are manufactured by Texas Instruments under the same SIMPLE SWITCHER® series designation.

Substitution eligibility is established through the following criteria:

• Input voltage specification: 6V to 42V (identical)
• Output voltage specification: 5V to 30V (identical)
• Maximum output current: 1A (identical)
• Package type: TO-PMOD-7 Power Module (identical)
• Physical dimensions: 0.40" L × 0.39" W × 0.18" H (identical)
• Operating temperature range: -40°C to 125°C (identical)
• Protection and control features: OCP, OTP, OVP, SCP, UVLO with Enable Active High (identical)
• Regulatory compliance: ROHS3 Compliant, REACH Unaffected (identical)
• Moisture sensitivity level: MSL 3 (168 Hours) (identical)

The packaging format difference does not affect electrical performance, thermal characteristics, or functional operation. Selection between these parts is based on supply chain requirements, inventory availability, and assembly process compatibility with either tube or tape-and-reel feeding systems.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the LMZ14201HTZE/NOPB and LMZ14201HTZ/NOPB are Active status products manufactured by Texas Instruments and maintain full compliance with ROHS3 and REACH regulatory requirements. The devices are functionally and electrically equivalent across all specified parameters.

Selection between these parts is determined by packaging and supply chain requirements:

LMZ14201HTZE/NOPB (Tube Packaging): Suitable for applications requiring tube-format component delivery, manual assembly processes, or inventory management systems configured for tube-based storage and handling.

LMZ14201HTZ/NOPB (Cut Tape & Digi-Reel® Packaging): Suitable for high-volume automated assembly operations utilizing tape-and-reel feeding systems, pick-and-place equipment, or supply chains optimized for reel-based component distribution.

Both parts deliver identical electrical performance, thermal characteristics, protection functionality, and regulatory compliance. The choice between packaging formats does not affect circuit performance, reliability, or long-term operational characteristics.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are the LMZ14201HTZE/NOPB and LMZ14201HTZ/NOPB electrically identical?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical specifications including input voltage range (6V to 42V), output voltage range (5V to 30V), maximum output current (1A), operating temperature range (-40°C to 125°C), efficiency (97%), and all protection features (OCP, OTP, OVP, SCP, UVLO).

Q: What is the only difference between these two parts?

A: The packaging format. The LMZ14201HTZE/NOPB is supplied in Tube packaging, while the LMZ14201HTZ/NOPB is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) and Digi-Reel® packaging. The physical component dimensions, form factor, and mounting characteristics remain identical.

Q: Can I use LMZ14201HTZ/NOPB in place of LMZ14201HTZE/NOPB in my circuit design?

A: Yes. The parts are functionally equivalent and can be used interchangeably in circuit applications. The substitution is valid from an electrical and mechanical standpoint. Selection should be based on your assembly process requirements and supply chain logistics.

Q: Does the packaging format affect thermal performance or heat dissipation?

A: No. Both packaging formats contain the identical TO-PMOD-7 power module with the same physical dimensions (0.40" L × 0.39" W × 0.18" H). Thermal characteristics and heat dissipation performance are identical regardless of packaging format.

Q: Are both parts compliant with current regulatory standards?

A: Yes. Both the LMZ14201HTZE/NOPB and LMZ14201HTZ/NOPB are ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected. Both maintain Active product status with Texas Instruments.

Q: Which packaging format is better for automated assembly?

A: The LMZ14201HTZ/NOPB in Cut Tape and Digi-Reel® packaging is optimized for automated pick-and-place assembly systems and high-volume production environments. The LMZ14201HTZE/NOPB in Tube packaging is suitable for manual assembly or lower-volume production processes.

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

A: Both parts have a Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) of 3 with a floor life of 168 hours. Proper storage and handling procedures must be followed to maintain component reliability.

Q: Can I mix these two packaging formats in the same production batch?

A: Yes. Since the parts are electrically and mechanically identical, they can be used together in the same design and production environment. However, assembly process compatibility should be verified based on your specific equipment and handling procedures.
