NV6115 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The NV6115 is an active power management integrated circuit manufactured by Navitas Semiconductor, Inc., operating within the GaNFast™ series. This component functions as a power switch/driver with 1:1 input-to-output ratio configuration, designed for general-purpose switching applications. The device integrates an N-channel output stage capable of delivering 8A maximum output current at 650V load voltage rating.

The NV6115 is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) and Digi-Reel® packaging formats. Identifying equivalent substitute parts becomes necessary when specific packaging configurations are unavailable, inventory constraints exist, or procurement timelines require alternative sourcing while maintaining identical electrical and mechanical performance characteristics.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the NV6115 are determined by strict equivalence across all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. The substitution logic is based on the following criteria:

Electrical Parameters (Must Match Exactly):

• Output Type: N-Channel
• Number of Outputs: 1
• Ratio - Input:Output: 1:1
• Output Configuration: High Side or Low Side
• Interface: PWM
• Voltage - Load: 650V
• Voltage - Supply (Vcc/Vdd): 10V ~ 24V
• Current - Output (Max): 8A
• Rds On (Typ): 170mOhm
• Input Type: Non-Inverting
• Operating Temperature: -40°C ~ 125°C (TC)

Mechanical Parameters (Must Match Exactly):

• Mounting Type: Surface Mount
• Supplier Device Package: 8-QFN (5x6)
• Package / Case: 8-PowerVDFN

Compliance Parameters (Must Match Exactly):

• Manufacturer: Navitas Semiconductor, Inc.
• Series: GaNFast™
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL): 1 (Unlimited)

The NV6115-RA qualifies as a parametric equivalent substitute because it maintains identical electrical specifications, mechanical form factor, and compliance certifications. The only difference is the packaging format: NV6115-RA is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format, whereas the NV6115 is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) and Digi-Reel® format.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the NV6115 and NV6115-RA are active products manufactured by Navitas Semiconductor, Inc., with identical electrical performance and mechanical specifications. Selection between these parts is determined by packaging and procurement requirements rather than functional capability.

NV6115 (Cut Tape & Digi-Reel® Packaging): Select this part number when procurement processes require Cut Tape format or when Digi-Reel® packaging is specified in design documentation or supply chain agreements.

NV6115-RA (Tape & Reel Packaging): Select this part number when Tape & Reel format is required for automated assembly processes, high-volume production runs, or when standard reel-based component handling is specified.

Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating, ensuring compatibility with standard manufacturing and storage protocols. The electrical and thermal performance characteristics are identical, permitting direct substitution at the circuit level without design modification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can NV6115-RA be used as a direct substitute for NV6115 in circuit design?

A: Yes. The NV6115-RA is a parametric equivalent with identical electrical specifications, output current rating (8A), load voltage (650V), supply voltage range (10V ~ 24V), on-resistance (170mOhm), and operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 125°C). The only difference is packaging format. Circuit-level performance is identical.

Q: What is the difference between Cut Tape (CT) and Tape & Reel (TR) packaging?

A: Cut Tape packaging supplies individual components on tape segments, suitable for manual assembly or small-batch production. Tape & Reel packaging supplies components on continuous reels, optimized for automated pick-and-place assembly equipment used in high-volume manufacturing. Both formats contain the same component in the same 8-PowerVDFN package.

Q: Are there any compliance or certification differences between NV6115 and NV6115-RA?

A: No. Both part numbers carry identical ROHS3 compliance status and MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating. Regulatory and environmental compliance characteristics are equivalent.

Q: Can I substitute NV6115-RA for NV6115 in an existing design without PCB layout changes?

A: Yes. Both parts use the same 8-QFN (5x6) surface mount package with 8-PowerVDFN case designation. PCB footprints, pad layouts, and mounting requirements are identical. No design modification is required.

Q: Which part number should I specify for high-volume production?

A: NV6115-RA (Tape & Reel format) is optimized for high-volume automated assembly. This packaging format reduces handling time and integrates with standard manufacturing equipment. NV6115 (Cut Tape format) is suitable for lower-volume or manual assembly processes.

Q: Are the electrical performance characteristics identical between these part numbers?

A: Yes. Both parts deliver 8A maximum output current, operate across 10V ~ 24V supply voltage range, support 650V load voltage, and maintain 170mOhm typical on-resistance. Operating temperature range, input type (Non-Inverting), interface (PWM), and output configuration (High Side or Low Side) are identical.
