Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The MP2013GQ-Z and MP2013GQ-P are parametric equivalents manufactured by Monolithic Power Systems Inc. Substitution between these parts is valid based on the following criteria:

Identical Electrical Parameters:

Output configuration (Positive)
Output type (Adjustable)
Voltage specifications: Input (Max) 40V, Output range 1.215V to 15V
Current ratings: 150mA output, 7.2 µA quiescent, 50 µA supply maximum
Voltage dropout: 0.9V @ 150mA
PSRR: 58dB ~ 41dB (100Hz ~ 1kHz)
Protection features: Over Current, Over Temperature
Operating temperature range: -40°C ~ 125°C (TJ)

Identical Mechanical Parameters:

Mounting type: Surface Mount
Package / Case: 8-VDFN Exposed Pad
Supplier device package: 8-QFN (3x3)

Difference: The only distinction between these parts is packaging format: MP2013GQ-Z is supplied in standard packaging, while MP2013GQ-P is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format. This difference affects inventory management and automated assembly processes but does not alter electrical or mechanical compatibility.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both MP2013GQ-Z and MP2013GQ-P are Active products from Monolithic Power Systems Inc. with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection between these parts should be based on supply chain and manufacturing requirements:

MP2013GQ-Z is appropriate for standard inventory and lower-volume applications where packaging format is not a constraint.
MP2013GQ-P is appropriate for high-volume production environments utilizing automated pick-and-place assembly, where Tape & Reel packaging provides operational efficiency.

Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, ensuring regulatory alignment for industrial and commercial applications. The MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited) indicates no moisture sensitivity restrictions during storage or handling.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can MP2013GQ-P be used as a direct replacement for MP2013GQ-Z in circuit design?

A: Yes. Both parts are parametric equivalents with identical electrical characteristics, voltage ratings, current specifications, and thermal performance. The only difference is packaging format (Tape & Reel vs. standard packaging), which does not affect circuit functionality or performance.

Q: What is the difference between MP2013GQ-Z and MP2013GQ-P?

A: The parts are electrically and mechanically identical. MP2013GQ-Z uses standard packaging, while MP2013GQ-P is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format for automated assembly processes. Both use the same 8-QFN (3x3) package footprint.

Q: Are there any compatibility concerns when switching between these part numbers?

A: No compatibility concerns exist. Both parts use the same 8-VDFN Exposed Pad package with 8-QFN (3x3) footprint, ensuring identical PCB layout and assembly requirements. Schematic and layout designs require no modification.

Q: Which part should be selected for high-volume manufacturing?

A: MP2013GQ-P (Tape & Reel format) is recommended for high-volume production due to compatibility with automated pick-and-place equipment, reducing assembly labor and improving throughput.

Q: Do both parts meet the same regulatory and compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both MP2013GQ-Z and MP2013GQ-P are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and carry MSL rating 1 (Unlimited), ensuring equivalent regulatory status for all applications.
