MAX5063CASA Half-Bridge Gate Driver IC Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The MAX5063CASA is a half-bridge gate driver IC manufactured by Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated, designed for driving N-channel MOSFETs in half-bridge configurations. This device operates with a supply voltage range of 8V to 12.6V and delivers peak output currents of 2A for both source and sink operations. The part is classified as obsolete, which necessitates identification of functionally equivalent alternatives for new designs and production continuity.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the MAX5063CASA is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Driven Configuration: Half-Bridge topology
• Number of Drivers: 2 independent channels
• Gate Type: N-Channel MOSFET
• Voltage - Supply: 8V ~ 12.6V range
• Current - Peak Output: 2A source and 2A sink capability
• Input Type: Non-Inverting logic
• High Side Voltage - Max (Bootstrap): 125V minimum
• Rise / Fall Time: 65ns typical
• Operating Temperature: -40°C ~ 150°C (TJ)
• Package / Case: 8-SOIC with exposed pad
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount

The MAX5063CASA+ meets all these criteria and is therefore classified as a direct functional equivalent.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MAX5063CASA+ is the direct substitute for the MAX5063CASA. Both parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters. The primary distinction is product status: the MAX5063CASA is obsolete while the MAX5063CASA+ is active. Both parts are ROHS3 compliant and carry MSL Level 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity ratings, ensuring equivalent reliability and environmental compliance for new designs and production applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can MAX5063CASA+ be used as a direct replacement for MAX5063CASA?

A: Yes. The MAX5063CASA+ is electrically and mechanically identical to the MAX5063CASA across all specified parameters, including supply voltage, output current, timing characteristics, and package configuration.

Q: What is the difference between MAX5063CASA and MAX5063CASA+?

A: The primary difference is product status. The MAX5063CASA is obsolete, while the MAX5063CASA+ is active. The "+" designation indicates the active production variant with identical electrical performance.

Q: Are there any packaging differences between these parts?

A: Both parts use the same 8-SOIC package with exposed pad (0.154", 3.90mm width). The MAX5063CASA is supplied in standard packaging, while the MAX5063CASA+ is supplied in tube packaging. Both are surface mount components with identical footprints.

Q: What are the key parameters that determine substitution eligibility?

A: Substitution is determined by matching: half-bridge configuration, 2 independent drivers, N-channel MOSFET gate type, 8V to 12.6V supply voltage, 2A peak output current (source and sink), non-inverting input logic, 125V bootstrap voltage, 65ns rise/fall time, -40°C to 150°C operating temperature, and 8-SOIC surface mount package.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both MAX5063CASA and MAX5063CASA+ are ROHS3 compliant with MSL Level 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity ratings.
