LP2995MX DDR Terminator PMIC Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The LP2995MX is a DDR Terminator Power Management IC manufactured by Texas Instruments in an 8-SOIC surface mount package. This component is classified as obsolete, indicating it has been discontinued by the manufacturer. The LP2995MX operates within a supply voltage range of 2.2V to 5.5V and draws 250µA supply current, making it suitable for DDR memory termination applications requiring stable reference voltage generation.

Due to its obsolete status, identifying equivalent and substitute parts is necessary for ongoing system support, design updates, and procurement continuity. The substitute part LP2995MX/NOPB maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications while offering active product status and improved compliance certifications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the LP2995MX is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Identical supply voltage operating range (2.2V ~ 5.5V)
• Identical supply current specification (250µA)
• Identical operating temperature range (0°C ~ 125°C)
• Identical package and pinout (8-SOIC, 0.154" width, 3.90mm)
• Identical functional application (DDR Terminator)
• Identical moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1)

The LP2995MX/NOPB meets all substitution criteria as a direct equivalent. The "/NOPB" suffix indicates a lead-free, RoHS3 compliant variant manufactured under the same base product number (LP2995) with no functional or electrical differences from the original part.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The LP2995MX/NOPB is the direct substitute for the obsolete LP2995MX. Both parts share identical electrical specifications, package geometry, and functional performance for DDR termination applications. The primary distinction is product status and compliance certification.

The LP2995MX/NOPB offers active product status, ensuring continued availability and manufacturer support. Additionally, the LP2995MX/NOPB achieves ROHS3 compliance, whereas the original LP2995MX is RoHS non-compliant. For new designs or system updates requiring compliance with current environmental regulations, the LP2995MX/NOPB is the appropriate selection.

Both parts maintain identical REACH and ECCN classifications, confirming regulatory equivalence for export and supply chain purposes.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the LP2995MX/NOPB be used as a direct replacement for the LP2995MX in existing designs?

A: Yes. The LP2995MX/NOPB is electrically and mechanically identical to the LP2995MX. Both parts operate at identical voltage ranges (2.2V ~ 5.5V), current specifications (250µA), temperature ranges (0°C ~ 125°C), and package configurations (8-SOIC). Pin-for-pin compatibility is maintained.

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

A: The "/NOPB" suffix designates a lead-free, RoHS3 compliant variant. This indicates the part is manufactured without lead and meets current environmental compliance standards. Electrical and functional performance remains unchanged.

Q: Why is the LP2995MX classified as obsolete?

A: Obsolete status indicates the manufacturer has discontinued production of this part number. The LP2995MX/NOPB remains in active production and serves as the current equivalent.

Q: Are there any differences in package dimensions between the LP2995MX and LP2995MX/NOPB?

A: No. Both parts use the identical 8-SOIC package with 0.154" width and 3.90mm body dimensions. PCB footprints and assembly processes are interchangeable.

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

A: Both the LP2995MX and LP2995MX/NOPB carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) classification, indicating the lowest moisture sensitivity level with no shelf-life restrictions under standard storage conditions.

Q: Are there any compliance or regulatory differences between the two parts?

A: The LP2995MX/NOPB achieves ROHS3 compliance, while the LP2995MX is RoHS non-compliant. Both maintain identical REACH and ECCN classifications. For applications requiring RoHS compliance, the LP2995MX/NOPB is the appropriate selection.
