Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the PI5C3301CEX is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Circuit Configuration: 1 x 1:1 bus switch topology
• Voltage Supply Range: 4V ~ 5.5V single supply operation
• Operating Temperature Range: -40°C ~ 85°C
• Package Type: 5-TSSOP / SC-70-5 / SOT-353 surface mount
• Functional Category: Bus Switch logic IC

The NC7SZ384P5X from Fairchild Semiconductor meets all these criteria, providing direct functional and physical compatibility for the obsolete PI5C3301CEX.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The NC7SZ384P5X is the direct parametric equivalent for the PI5C3301CEX. Both components share identical electrical specifications, circuit topology, and physical packaging. The primary distinction is product status: the PI5C3301CEX is obsolete while the NC7SZ384P5X maintains active production status.

For new designs or system replacements, the NC7SZ384P5X from Fairchild Semiconductor is the appropriate selection. The component maintains ROHS3 compliance alignment with the original part and operates within the same voltage and temperature parameters, ensuring functional compatibility in existing circuit designs.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the NC7SZ384P5X directly replace the PI5C3301CEX in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both components are 1 x 1:1 bus switches with identical voltage supply ranges (4V ~ 5.5V), operating temperature ranges (-40°C ~ 85°C), and SC-70-5 package specifications. Pin-to-pin compatibility is maintained.
