Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the PCI2050BPDVG4 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Base product number (PCI2050) ensures functional equivalence in PCI-to-PCI bridge operation
• Package specification (208-LQFP / 208-QFP 28x28) ensures mechanical and electrical compatibility with existing PCB layouts
• Voltage supply range (3V ~ 3.6V) must remain constant for circuit operation
• Interface type (PCI) defines the communication protocol
• RoHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status maintain regulatory alignment
• Moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1) indicates handling and storage compatibility

The substitute part PCI2050BPDV shares all these critical parameters with the original part, differing only in packaging format (Tray vs. the original specification) and product status (Active vs. Discontinued).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The PCI2050BPDV is a direct functional equivalent to the PCI2050BPDVG4. Both parts are manufactured by Texas Instruments and share identical electrical specifications, package dimensions, and regulatory compliance certifications. The primary distinction is product status: PCI2050BPDVG4 is discontinued while PCI2050BPDV remains in active production.

For new designs or component replenishment, PCI2050BPDV is the appropriate selection due to its active status and higher current inventory availability. Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, ensuring regulatory alignment in manufacturing and deployment.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can PCI2050BPDV directly replace PCI2050BPDVG4 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical specifications, package dimensions (208-LQFP), voltage supply range (3V ~ 3.6V), and PCI interface characteristics. No circuit modifications are required.

Q: What is the difference between PCI2050BPDVG4 and PCI2050BPDV?

A: The parts are functionally equivalent. The primary differences are packaging format (Tray for the substitute) and product status (Active vs. Discontinued). All critical electrical and mechanical parameters are identical.

Q: Are there any compliance or certification differences?

A: No. Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance, REACH unaffected status, and identical moisture sensitivity levels (MSL 1). Regulatory requirements are equivalent.

Q: Does the 208-QFP (28x28) package remain the same for both parts?

A: Yes. Both the PCI2050BPDVG4 and PCI2050BPDV use the 208-LQFP package with 208-QFP (28x28) supplier device package specifications. PCB layout compatibility is maintained.

Q: Why is PCI2050BPDVG4 discontinued?

A: Product discontinuation is a manufacturer decision. PCI2050BPDV remains in active production and serves the same functional requirements.
