PI3B16233AE Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The PI3B16233AE is an 8 x 1:2 Multiplexer/Demultiplexer logic IC manufactured by Diodes Incorporated in a 56-TSSOP surface mount package. This component is classified as obsolete, making identification of functionally equivalent alternatives essential for ongoing system support and new design implementations. The part operates on single supply voltage (3V to 3.6V) across an industrial temperature range of -40°C to 85°C. Locating suitable substitutes ensures design continuity and supply chain flexibility.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the PI3B16233AE is based on strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

• Package Compatibility: Both substitute parts use the identical 56-TFSOP (0.240", 6.10mm Width) surface mount package, ensuring PCB footprint compatibility without layout modifications.
• Voltage Supply Range: Substitute parts operate within 2.3V ~ 3.6V, which encompasses the original part's 3V ~ 3.6V specification, providing backward compatibility.
• Operating Temperature Range: Both substitutes maintain the -40°C ~ 85°C industrial temperature specification.
• Functional Classification: All parts are Multiplexer/Demultiplexer logic ICs with 2 independent circuits.
• Compliance Standards: All parts maintain ROHS3 compliance, MSL 1 rating, and identical ECCN/HTSUS classifications.

The substitute parts differ in circuit configuration (2 x 16:8 versus 8 x 1:2) and are sourced from Renesas Electronics Corporation. Substitution is valid only when the 2 x 16:8 configuration meets the application requirements.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both QS3VH16233PAG and QS3VH16233PAG8 are active products from Renesas Electronics Corporation, providing long-term supply assurance compared to the obsolete PI3B16233AE. Selection between the two Renesas substitutes depends on procurement and assembly requirements:

• QS3VH16233PAG8 is recommended for high-volume production due to availability in Cut Tape and Digi-Reel packaging formats, with 6626 units in stock.
• QS3VH16233PAG is suitable for lower-volume applications, supplied in Tube packaging, with 1211 units in stock.

Both substitutes maintain full compliance with ROHS3, REACH, and EAR99 classifications. The extended voltage supply range (2.3V ~ 3.6V) of the Renesas parts provides additional design margin compared to the original specification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can QS3VH16233PAG and QS3VH16233PAG8 be used interchangeably with PI3B16233AE?

A: Both Renesas parts share identical electrical specifications and package dimensions. The difference between QS3VH16233PAG and QS3VH16233PAG8 is packaging format only (Tube versus Cut Tape/Digi-Reel). Selection depends on assembly process requirements, not functional compatibility.

Q: What is the primary difference between the main part and substitute parts?

A: The circuit configuration differs: PI3B16233AE is 8 x 1:2, while both Renesas substitutes are 2 x 16:8. Both configurations provide 2 independent circuits and operate within compatible voltage and temperature ranges. Substitution is valid only when the 2 x 16:8 configuration satisfies application requirements.

Q: Are there any compliance or certification differences?

A: No. All three parts maintain identical ROHS3 compliance, MSL 1 rating, REACH unaffected status, and EAR99 ECCN classification.

Q: Why is the PI3B16233AE obsolete?

A: The part is classified as obsolete by the manufacturer. The active Renesas alternatives ensure continued availability and supply chain stability for new designs and legacy system support.

Q: Does the extended voltage range of the Renesas parts affect compatibility?

A: No. The Renesas parts operate within 2.3V ~ 3.6V, which fully encompasses the original 3V ~ 3.6V specification. This provides additional design margin and is fully backward compatible.

Q: What packaging considerations apply to these substitutes?

A: Both substitutes use the identical 56-TFSOP surface mount package with 0.240" width (6.10mm). PCB footprints and assembly processes require no modification. Packaging format (Tube versus Cut Tape/Digi-Reel) affects only procurement and handling procedures.
