Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the MP8764GLE-Z is determined by strict equivalence across all electrical and mechanical parameters. The substitute parts MPQ8632GLE-12-Z and MPQ8632GLE-12-P maintain identical specifications in the following critical areas:

  • Input voltage range: 4.5V to 18V
  • Output voltage range: 0.611V to 13V
  • Output current capacity: 12A
  • Switching frequency: 200kHz to 1MHz
  • Synchronous rectifier functionality: Present
  • Operating temperature range: -40°C to 125°C
  • Package configuration: 16-PowerVFQFN (3x4)
  • Surface mount mounting type
  • RoHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating

The primary distinction between substitute parts lies in product status and packaging designation. MPQ8632GLE-12-Z and MPQ8632GLE-12-P are both classified as "Active" products, whereas the original MP8764GLE-Z is "Not For New Designs."
