Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the PD57006TR-E is determined by the following critical parameters that must remain consistent across equivalent components:

Mandatory Compatibility Parameters:

• Technology: LDMOS
• Frequency: 945MHz
• Voltage - Test: 28V
• Voltage - Rated: 65V
• Package / Case: PowerSO-10RF Exposed Bottom Pad (2 Formed Leads)
• Manufacturer: STMicroelectronics
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 3 (168 Hours)

Performance Parameters (Allowable Variation):

• Current Rating (Amps)
• Current - Test (mA)
• Power - Output (W)
• Gain (dB)

The PD57045TR-E qualifies as a direct substitute because it maintains identical voltage ratings, frequency, package configuration, and compliance certifications. The substitute part exhibits higher current handling capability (5A vs. 1A), increased test current (250mA vs. 70mA), and significantly higher output power (45W vs. 6W) with marginally lower gain (14.5dB vs. 15dB). These performance enhancements make the substitute suitable for applications requiring greater power delivery within the same electrical and mechanical envelope.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The PD57045TR-E is the appropriate substitute for the obsolete PD57006TR-E based on the following engineering criteria:

Product Status Alignment: The PD57006TR-E is classified as obsolete, making continued procurement impractical. The PD57045TR-E maintains active product status with STMicroelectronics, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity.

Compliance and Certification Equivalence: Both components are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and classified under ECCN EAR99. Moisture sensitivity levels are identical at MSL 3 (168 Hours), ensuring equivalent handling and storage requirements.

Electrical and Mechanical Compatibility: The substitute maintains identical voltage ratings (28V test, 65V rated), frequency (945MHz), and package configuration (PowerSO-10RF with formed leads and exposed bottom pad). These parameters ensure direct mechanical fit and electrical interface compatibility in existing PCB designs.

Performance Enhancement: The PD57045TR-E provides superior performance characteristics with 7.5 times greater current rating (5A vs. 1A) and 7.5 times greater output power (45W vs. 6W). The gain differential of 0.5dB is negligible for most RF amplification applications. These enhancements enable the substitute to handle higher power levels without design modification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the PD57045TR-E be used as a direct replacement for the PD57006TR-E in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both components share identical voltage ratings, frequency, and PowerSO-10RF package configuration. The substitute requires no PCB layout modifications or electrical interface changes. The higher power output of the PD57045TR-E is compatible with existing designs and does not introduce incompatibility.

Q: What are the key differences between these two RF MOSFET components?

A: The primary differences are product status and performance specifications. The PD57006TR-E is obsolete with 6W output power and 1A current rating. The PD57045TR-E is active with 45W output power and 5A current rating. Both operate at 945MHz with 28V test voltage in the same PowerSO-10RF package.

Q: Are there any compliance or certification differences between the main part and substitute?

A: No. Both components are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and classified under ECCN EAR99. Moisture sensitivity levels are identical at MSL 3 (168 Hours), ensuring equivalent handling and storage protocols.

Q: Does the 0.5dB gain difference between the two parts affect circuit performance?

A: The gain differential of 15dB (PD57006TR-E) versus 14.5dB (PD57045TR-E) is 0.5dB. This difference is negligible in most RF amplification applications and does not require circuit redesign or bias adjustment.

Q: Is the PowerSO-10RF package identical between both components?

A: Yes. Both components use the PowerSO-10RF package with exposed bottom pad and 2 formed leads. Package dimensions, pin configuration, and thermal characteristics are identical, enabling direct PCB compatibility.

Q: What is the inventory status for the PD57045TR-E substitute?

A: The PD57045TR-E is available with 663 pieces in stock as new original inventory. The component maintains active product status with STMicroelectronics, ensuring ongoing availability for production requirements.
