Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the PE64908MLAA-Z is determined by strict equivalence across the following parameters:

• Identical function as a digitally tunable capacitor
• Matching frequency range of 100MHz to 3GHz
• General-purpose RF type classification
• SPI interface requirement
• Identical package specification: 10-UFQFN with exposed pad
• Surface mount mounting type
• Equivalent moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1)
• Same manufacturer (pSemi) and series designation (UltraCMOS®, DuNE™)

The PE64906B-Z meets all substitution criteria and is classified as an active product with current manufacturing support.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The PE64906B-Z is the direct substitute for the PE64908MLAA-Z. Both components share identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters. The primary distinction is product status: PE64908MLAA-Z is obsolete while PE64906B-Z is active with current manufacturing support.

PE64906B-Z carries ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, providing additional regulatory alignment for new designs and production continuity. Both parts maintain the same ECCN and HTSUS classifications.
