Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the PI3VDP612-AZFEX is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Multiplexer/Demultiplexer Configuration: 2:1 circuit topology
• Supply Voltage Compatibility: Single supply operation in the 3V to 3.6V range
• Bandwidth Performance: Minimum -3dB bandwidth of 3.25 GHz
• Package Type: Surface mount with exposed pad configuration
• Compliance Standards: ROHS3 compliance and MSL Level 1 rating
• Manufacturer Support: Active product status for long-term availability

The PI3WVR13612ZLEX meets these substitution criteria while offering enhanced specifications and active product status.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The PI3WVR13612ZLEX is the manufacturer-recommended substitute for the obsolete PI3VDP612-AZFEX. Both components are manufactured by Diodes Incorporated and maintain identical compliance certifications including ROHS3 compliance and MSL Level 1 rating.

The substitute part offers superior performance characteristics with a -3dB bandwidth of 7 GHz compared to 3.25 GHz in the original part, and an extended operating temperature range of -40°C to 105°C versus -40°C to 85°C. The supply voltage range of 3V to 3.6V encompasses the original 3.3V specification, ensuring direct compatibility with existing power delivery systems.

The PI3WVR13612ZLEX maintains active product status with Diodes Incorporated, providing long-term availability and supply chain stability. Both components share identical regulatory classifications under ECCN EAR99 and HTSUS 8542.39.0001.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the PI3WVR13612ZLEX directly replace the PI3VDP612-AZFEX in existing designs?

A: The PI3WVR13612ZLEX is the manufacturer-recommended substitute and maintains compatibility with the original supply voltage specification of 3.3V. The enhanced bandwidth and extended temperature range provide improved performance margins. Package differences require PCB layout verification.

Q: What are the package differences between these components?

A: The PI3VDP612-AZFEX uses a 56-TQFN (11x5) package, while the PI3WVR13612ZLEX uses a 52-TQFN (4.6x9) package. Both are surface mount with exposed pads. Physical dimensions and pin configurations differ and require PCB redesign.

Q: Why does the substitute part have four channels instead of one?

A: The PI3WVR13612ZLEX is designed for DisplayPort applications with multi-channel switching capability. For single-channel video applications, only one channel requires activation while remaining channels can be disabled or left unused.

Q: Are there compliance or certification differences?

A: Both components maintain identical ROHS3 compliance, MSL Level 1 rating, REACH unaffected status, and EAR99 export classification. No compliance gaps exist between the original and substitute parts.

Q: What is the supply voltage compatibility?

A: The original PI3VDP612-AZFEX operates at 3.3V. The substitute PI3WVR13612ZLEX accepts 3V to 3.6V, which includes the original specification with additional margin. Existing 3.3V power supplies are fully compatible.
