PD57030S-E RF MOSFET LDMOS Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The PD57030S-E is an RF MOSFET LDMOS transistor manufactured by STMicroelectronics, designed for 945 MHz applications with 30W output power and 14dB gain. The device operates at 28V test voltage with a rated voltage of 65V and is housed in a PowerSO-10 package with exposed bottom pad and straight lead configuration.

The PD57030S-E is classified as obsolete. Substitute parts are necessary to maintain design continuity and ensure availability for new production builds and field replacements. Alternative models within the STMicroelectronics RF MOSFET LDMOS product line provide equivalent or enhanced electrical performance while maintaining package compatibility and compliance standards.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the PD57030S-E are selected based on strict electrical and mechanical parameter compatibility within the RF MOSFET LDMOS category. The substitution logic is organized into two groups:

Direct Manufacturer Substitutes (Enhanced Performance): Parts that maintain identical test voltage (28V), rated voltage (65V), frequency (945 MHz), and package configuration (PowerSO-10 Exposed Bottom Pad) while offering increased output power and current rating. These substitutes are suitable for applications requiring higher power handling or improved gain characteristics.

Similar Manufacturer Substitutes (Package Variant): Parts that maintain all electrical parameters (test voltage, rated voltage, frequency, gain, power output, current rating) but utilize an alternative supplier device package designation (10-PowerSO versus PowerSO-10RF). These substitutes provide functional equivalence with package-level variation.

Key Parameters Determining Substitution:

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

Engineering Selection Recommendations

PD57060S-E (Direct Manufacturer Substitute): This part is the primary substitute for the PD57030S-E. It maintains identical package configuration (PowerSO-10RF with straight lead), voltage ratings (28V test, 65V rated), and frequency (945 MHz). The PD57060S-E provides doubled output power (60W versus 30W) and increased current rating (7A versus 4A) with marginally improved gain (14.3dB versus 14dB). The part is classified as Active product status, ensuring long-term availability. All compliance certifications (ROHS3, REACH Unaffected, EAR99) are maintained. This substitute is suitable for applications where the original 30W specification is adequate or where higher power capability is beneficial.

PD57030-E (Similar Manufacturer Substitute): This part provides electrical equivalence to the PD57030S-E with identical output power (30W), current rating (4A), gain (14dB), and all voltage specifications. The primary difference is the supplier device package designation (10-PowerSO versus PowerSO-10RF). Both packages are PowerSO-10 with exposed bottom pad. The PD57030-E is classified as Active product status. All compliance certifications are maintained. This substitute is suitable for direct functional replacement where package variant designation does not impact board-level integration.

PD57060-E (Similar Manufacturer Substitute): This part combines the electrical enhancements of the PD57060S-E (60W output power, 7A current rating, 14.3dB gain) with the alternative package designation (10-PowerSO). The part is classified as Active product status with all compliance certifications maintained. This substitute is suitable for applications requiring higher power capability with package variant tolerance.

All substitute parts are manufactured by STMicroelectronics and comply with ROHS3, REACH, and EAR99 classifications. Selection among substitutes depends on application power requirements and package designation compatibility.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the PD57060S-E be used as a direct replacement for the PD57030S-E?

A: Yes. The PD57060S-E maintains identical package configuration (PowerSO-10RF with straight lead), voltage ratings (28V test, 65V rated), and frequency (945 MHz). The increased output power (60W versus 30W) and current rating (7A versus 4A) are compatible with applications designed for the PD57030S-E. The part is Active product status, ensuring availability.

Q: What is the difference between PowerSO-10RF and 10-PowerSO package designations?

A: Both designations refer to PowerSO-10 packages with exposed bottom pad. The difference is in supplier device package nomenclature. PowerSO-10RF indicates straight lead configuration, while 10-PowerSO is an alternative designation for the same physical package. Board-level compatibility depends on design specifications for lead configuration and pad layout.

Q: Are all substitute parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. All substitute parts (PD57060S-E, PD57030-E, and PD57060-E) are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, matching the compliance status of the PD57030S-E.

Q: What is the moisture sensitivity level for these RF MOSFET parts?

A: All parts in this product family, including the PD57030S-E and all substitutes, have Moisture Sensitivity Level 3 with a 168-hour floor life rating.

Q: Can I use a PD57030-E in place of a PD57030S-E?

A: Yes. The PD57030-E provides electrical equivalence with identical output power (30W), current rating (4A), gain (14dB), and voltage specifications. The package designation differs (10-PowerSO versus PowerSO-10RF), but both are PowerSO-10 with exposed bottom pad. Compatibility depends on board design tolerance for package variant nomenclature.

Q: What is the product status of the PD57030S-E, and why are substitutes necessary?

A: The PD57030S-E is classified as Obsolete. All substitute parts (PD57060S-E, PD57030-E, PD57060-E) are classified as Active, ensuring continued availability for new production and field replacement applications.

Q: Are there any differences in electrical performance between the substitute parts?

A: PD57060S-E and PD57060-E provide doubled output power (60W versus 30W) and increased current rating (7A versus 4A) with marginally improved gain (14.3dB versus 14dB). PD57030-E maintains identical electrical specifications to the PD57030S-E. Selection depends on application power requirements.

Q: Do all parts share the same ECCN and HTSUS classifications?

A: Yes. All parts, including the PD57030S-E and all substitutes, are classified as ECCN EAR99 and HTSUS 8541.29.0095.
