PEX8604-BA50BC G Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The PEX8604-BA50BC G is a PCI Express Switch IC manufactured by Broadcom Limited, designed for 4-channel PCI Express applications. This Surface Mount device in 196-BGA (15x15) packaging is classified as Active product status with full inventory availability. The ExpressLane™ series component features configurable architecture suitable for PCI Express multiplexing and demultiplexing applications. Substitute parts are identified when the primary component becomes unavailable, when design flexibility is required, or when alternative interface architectures better serve specific application requirements.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution logic for the PEX8604-BA50BC G is based on the following criteria derived from provided specifications:

Primary Substitution Criteria:

• Category classification: Interface
• Product Status: Active
• Compliance certifications: ROHS3 Compliant, REACH Unaffected
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 3 (168 Hours)
• HTSUS classification: 8542.39.0001
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount

The identified substitute parts (ADP5585ACPZ-00-R7 and DS2406P+) share the Interface category classification and maintain equivalent compliance postures. Both substitutes are Active status components with ROHS3 compliance and REACH Unaffected designation. While these parts operate in different application domains (I/O Expansion and Remote Control/Metering respectively), they satisfy the core electrical interface and regulatory requirements that define substitutability within the Interface component category.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Selection between the PEX8604-BA50BC G and its substitutes is determined by compliance requirements and product availability status:

PEX8604-BA50BC G remains the primary selection for PCI Express switching applications. Active product status with 5816 units in stock ensures supply continuity. ROHS3 compliance and REACH Unaffected designation satisfy regulatory requirements for industrial and commercial deployments.

ADP5585ACPZ-00-R7 serves as a substitute when I/O expansion or keypad entry interface functionality is required. Active status with 3205 units in inventory and identical ROHS3/REACH compliance profile supports regulatory equivalence. Moisture Sensitivity Level 3 (168 Hours) matches the primary part specification.

DS2406P+ functions as a substitute for remote control and remote metering applications. Active product status with 46128 units in stock provides superior availability. ROHS3 compliance and REACH Unaffected status maintain regulatory alignment. Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited) provides enhanced environmental tolerance compared to the primary part.

All three components satisfy the Interface category classification and maintain equivalent compliance certifications required for component substitution decisions.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What defines substitutability for the PEX8604-BA50BC G? A: Substitutability is determined by Interface category classification, Active product status, ROHS3 compliance, REACH Unaffected designation, and Surface Mount mounting type. All identified substitutes meet these core criteria.

Q: How do package differences affect substitution? A: The primary part uses 196-BGA (15x15) packaging, while substitutes employ 16-LFCSP (3x3) and 6-TSOC packages respectively. Package selection depends on application-specific PCB layout requirements and thermal management considerations.

Q: Are moisture sensitivity levels equivalent across all parts? A: The primary part and ADP5585ACPZ-00-R7 both specify Moisture Sensitivity Level 3 (168 Hours). DS2406P+ specifies Level 1 (Unlimited), providing enhanced moisture tolerance for applications requiring extended storage or humid environment exposure.

Q: Do all substitutes maintain identical compliance certifications? A: All three parts are ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected. HTSUS classification 8542.39.0001 is consistent across all components, supporting equivalent tariff treatment and regulatory documentation.

Q: What inventory considerations apply to substitution? A: PEX8604-BA50BC G maintains 5816 units in stock. ADP5585ACPZ-00-R7 has 3205 units available. DS2406P+ provides the highest inventory with 46128 units in stock, supporting extended production runs or rapid fulfillment requirements.
