Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the NJM2595M is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Functional Equivalence: Both the main part and substitute must perform identical switching functions within consumer video applications.

Package Compatibility: The 16-SOIC (0.209", 5.30mm Width) package designation and 16-DMP supplier device package must remain consistent to ensure PCB layout compatibility and assembly process alignment.

Mounting Technology: Surface mount technology is mandatory for both components to maintain manufacturing process continuity.

Electrical Classification: Both components are classified within the Linear category and function as switches, ensuring functional interchangeability.

Regulatory Compliance: While the original NJM2595M is RoHS non-compliant, the substitute NJM2595M# is RoHS Compliant, representing an improvement in environmental compliance standards.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The NJM2595M# serves as the direct equivalent substitute for the obsolete NJM2595M. Selection between these components is determined by product status and regulatory compliance requirements:

For Legacy System Maintenance: The NJM2595M remains available with 3372 pieces in stock for systems already deployed with this component. This option applies only to repair and maintenance scenarios where existing inventory must be utilized.

For New Designs and Ongoing Production: The NJM2595M# is the appropriate selection. This component is classified as Active, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain stability. The NJM2595M# achieves RoHS Compliance and REACH Unaffected status, meeting current environmental and regulatory standards. The identical package, mounting type, and functional specifications ensure direct substitution without design modification.

Both components share identical electrical and mechanical characteristics, including the 16-DMP package configuration, surface mount technology, and consumer video application suitability. The transition from NJM2595M to NJM2595M# represents a compliance upgrade with no functional compromise.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the NJM2595M# be used as a direct replacement for the NJM2595M in existing designs?

A: Yes. The NJM2595M# is functionally and mechanically equivalent to the NJM2595M. Both components share identical package specifications (16-SOIC, 0.209" width, 5.30mm), mounting type (surface mount), and application classification (consumer video switching). No design modification is required for substitution.

Q: What is the primary difference between NJM2595M and NJM2595M#?

A: The primary differences are product status and regulatory compliance. The NJM2595M is classified as Obsolete and RoHS non-compliant. The NJM2595M# is Active and RoHS Compliant, with REACH Unaffected status. Functionally and electrically, both components are identical.

Q: Why is the NJM2595M classified as obsolete?

A: The NJM2595M has been superseded by the NJM2595M#, which offers improved regulatory compliance. Nisshinbo Micro Devices Inc. has transitioned production to the compliant variant, making the original part obsolete in terms of new manufacturing.

Q: Are there any package or pinout differences between these components?

A: No. Both the NJM2595M and NJM2595M# utilize the identical 16-DMP package configuration with 16-SOIC (0.209", 5.30mm Width) specifications. Pinout and PCB footprint compatibility is guaranteed.

Q: What does RoHS Compliance mean for the NJM2595M#?

A: RoHS Compliance indicates that the NJM2595M# meets the Restriction of Hazardous Substances directive, limiting the use of specific hazardous materials in electrical and electronic equipment. This is a regulatory requirement in many markets and is preferred for new designs.

Q: Can I use the NJM2595M# in applications originally designed for the NJM2595M?

A: Yes. The NJM2595M# is a direct equivalent with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. It is suitable for all consumer video switching applications that originally specified the NJM2595M.

Q: What is the significance of the "#" designation in NJM2595M#?

A: The "#" designation typically indicates a variant or updated version of the base part number. In this case, NJM2595M# represents the RoHS-compliant version of the NJM2595 base product, maintaining functional equivalence while meeting current environmental standards.
