MPC8347VRAGD Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The MPC8347VRAGD is a PowerPC e300 microprocessor IC from the MPC83xx series, featuring a single 32-bit core operating at 400MHz. This embedded processor integrates dual Gigabit Ethernet ports, dual USB 2.0 interfaces with PHY, DDR RAM controller, and additional connectivity options including DUART, I2C, PCI, and SPI interfaces. The device is housed in a 620-HBGA (29x29) package with exposed pad and operates across the industrial temperature range of 0°C to 105°C.

The MPC8347VRAGD has reached obsolete product status. Identifying equivalent substitute parts is necessary to maintain design continuity, ensure supply chain availability, and support long-term product lifecycle management for systems currently deployed with this processor.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the MPC8347VRAGD is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Core Functional Parameters:

• PowerPC e300 core processor architecture
• Single 32-bit core configuration
• 400MHz clock speed
• DDR RAM controller support
• Dual Gigabit Ethernet (10/100/1000Mbps)
• Dual USB 2.0 with integrated PHY
• DUART, I2C, PCI, and SPI interface support

Physical & Environmental Parameters:

• 620-HBGA (29x29) package with exposed pad
• Surface mount mounting type
• 0°C to 105°C operating temperature range
• 2.5V and 3.3V I/O voltage compatibility

Compliance & Certification Parameters:

• ROHS3 compliance
• REACH unaffected status
• MSL 3 (168 Hours) moisture sensitivity

The MPC8347VRAGDB qualifies as a direct substitute based on identical alignment across all functional, physical, and environmental parameters. The primary distinction is product status transition and packaging format.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MPC8347VRAGDB is the direct equivalent substitute for the MPC8347VRAGD. Both devices share identical electrical specifications, core architecture, interface configurations, and physical package dimensions. The transition from obsolete to active product status makes the MPC8347VRAGDB the appropriate selection for new designs and ongoing supply requirements.

Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, ensuring regulatory alignment for industrial and embedded applications. The MSL 3 rating (168 Hours) applies uniformly across both variants, requiring standard moisture control during storage and handling.

The primary operational difference is packaging format: the MPC8347VRAGD is supplied in bulk format, while the MPC8347VRAGDB is supplied in tray format. This distinction affects inventory management and component handling procedures but does not impact electrical or functional performance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are the MPC8347VRAGD and MPC8347VRAGDB electrically identical?

A: Yes. Both devices feature identical PowerPC e300 core architecture, 400MHz clock speed, DDR RAM controller, dual Gigabit Ethernet ports, dual USB 2.0 interfaces, and complete interface support (DUART, I2C, PCI, SPI). Electrical specifications, voltage ratings (2.5V/3.3V I/O), and operating temperature range (0°C to 105°C) are identical.

Q: What is the difference between these two part numbers?

A: The MPC8347VRAGDB represents the active production variant of the MPC8347VRAGD. The primary distinction is product lifecycle status: MPC8347VRAGD is obsolete, while MPC8347VRAGDB is active. Secondary differences include packaging format (bulk versus tray) and manufacturer entity designation (NXP USA Inc. versus NXP Semiconductors).

Q: Can the MPC8347VRAGDB be used as a direct replacement in existing designs?

A: Yes. The MPC8347VRAGDB is a direct pin-for-pin and functionally equivalent replacement. The 620-HBGA (29x29) package dimensions, exposed pad configuration, and surface mount characteristics are identical. No PCB redesign or layout modifications are required.

Q: Are there any compliance or certification differences?

A: No. Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status. Moisture sensitivity level (MSL 3, 168 Hours) is identical for both variants, requiring equivalent handling and storage protocols.

Q: What is the significance of the packaging format difference?

A: The MPC8347VRAGD is supplied in bulk format, while the MPC8347VRAGDB is supplied in tray format. This affects component handling, storage organization, and pick-and-place automation compatibility. The functional and electrical performance of the device is unaffected by packaging format.

Q: Should new designs use the MPC8347VRAGDB instead of the MPC8347VRAGD?

A: Yes. The MPC8347VRAGDB is the active production part and represents the current standard for this device family. The obsolete status of the MPC8347VRAGD makes the MPC8347VRAGDB the appropriate selection for new product development and long-term supply continuity.
