Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the MIC29372BT is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Output configuration (Positive)
• Output type (Adjustable)
• Voltage specifications (Input Max: 26V, Output Min: 1.24V, Output Max: 26V)
• Current rating (750mA output)
• Voltage dropout characteristics (0.75V @ 750mA)
• Package type (TO-220-5)
• Protection features (Over Current, Over Temperature)
• Control features (Enable function)
• Operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 125°C)

The MIC29372WT qualifies as a direct substitute based on complete parameter alignment across all electrical and mechanical specifications. The primary distinction is product status and packaging format.
