Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the MHT1002NR3 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Package Compatibility: Both the main part and substitute must use the OM-780-4L surface mount package to ensure PCB layout compatibility without redesign.
• Frequency Band: The substitute must operate within or encompass the 915MHz frequency range.
• Gain Specification: The substitute gain of 19.2dB is within acceptable tolerance of the original 20.7dB specification for RF amplifier applications.
• Voltage Rating: The substitute operates at 50V test voltage with 100V rated voltage, providing adequate headroom above the original 48V supply requirement.
• Manufacturer Consistency: Both components are manufactured by NXP USA Inc., ensuring design philosophy and quality standards alignment.
• Compliance Certifications: Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance, identical MSL ratings, and matching ECCN/HTSUS classifications.

The MRF8VP13350NR3 qualifies as a direct substitute based on these parameters. While the substitute is classified as an RF MOSFET LDMOS technology (versus the original IC classification), it operates in the same package footprint and frequency band with compatible electrical characteristics.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MRF8VP13350NR3 is an active product with current manufacturing support from NXP USA Inc., addressing the obsolescence status of the MHT1002NR3. Both components share identical package specifications (OM-780-4L), moisture sensitivity levels, and regulatory compliance classifications (ROHS3, EAR99, HTSUS 8541.29.0075).

The substitute operates at a higher frequency band (1.3GHz versus 915MHz) and delivers higher power output (350W), making it suitable for applications requiring extended frequency coverage or increased power handling. The gain differential of 1.5dB (20.7dB to 19.2dB) falls within typical RF amplifier design tolerances and can be compensated through circuit optimization if required.

Both components maintain identical supply voltage specifications at the test point (48V to 50V), ensuring direct compatibility with existing power distribution architectures.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the MRF8VP13350NR3 be used as a direct drop-in replacement for the MHT1002NR3?

A: Yes, from a package and mounting perspective. Both components use the OM-780-4L surface mount package with identical footprints. However, the substitute operates at a higher frequency band (1.3GHz) and exhibits a 1.5dB gain reduction. Circuit validation is necessary to confirm performance within system specifications.

Q: What is the primary reason for substitution?

A: The MHT1002NR3 is classified as obsolete. The MRF8VP13350NR3 is an active product with current manufacturing availability from NXP USA Inc., ensuring long-term supply chain reliability.

Q: Are there compliance or regulatory differences between these parts?

A: No. Both components maintain identical RoHS3 compliance status, MSL ratings (3, 168 Hours), ECCN classification (EAR99), and HTSUS codes (8541.29.0075).

Q: How do the electrical specifications compare?

A: The substitute provides higher frequency capability (1.3GHz versus 915MHz) and significantly higher power output (350W). The gain is 1.5dB lower (19.2dB versus 20.7dB). Supply voltage requirements are nearly identical (50V test versus 48V).

Q: What packaging format is available for the MRF8VP13350NR3?

A: The substitute is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format, standard for high-volume surface mount assembly operations.
