PI6CV2304LEX Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The PI6CV2304LEX is a Clock Fanout Buffer (Distribution) IC manufactured by Diodes Incorporated, designed for 1:4 clock distribution applications with a maximum frequency of 140 MHz. This device is currently in active production status and is available in high volume (2214 pcs in stock). The part operates across a 3V to 3.6V supply range and is housed in an 8-TSSOP surface mount package.

Substitute parts are identified when design requirements change, inventory constraints occur, or when alternative sourcing becomes necessary while maintaining functional equivalence within specified electrical and mechanical parameters.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the PI6CV2304LEX are qualified based on the following critical parameters that determine functional equivalence:

Core Substitution Criteria:

• Fanout Buffer (Distribution) type with 1:4 input-to-output ratio
• 8-TSSOP surface mount package (0.173", 4.40mm Width)
• Operating temperature range: -40°C ~ 85°C
• RoHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating
• Supply voltage compatibility within specified ranges

Identified Substitute Parts:

1. 2304NZGI-1LF (Renesas Electronics Corporation) - Manufacturer recommended substitute with identical 140 MHz maximum frequency and matching 3V ~ 3.6V supply voltage. Product status is Obsolete.

2. 5PB1104PGGI (Renesas Electronics Corporation) - Manufacturer recommended substitute with enhanced 200 MHz maximum frequency capability and extended supply voltage range (1.71V ~ 3.465V). Product status is Active with high inventory availability (30100 pcs).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

2304NZGI-1LF Selection Criteria: This substitute maintains identical electrical specifications (140 MHz maximum frequency, 3V ~ 3.6V supply voltage) and mechanical compatibility with the PI6CV2304LEX. However, the Obsolete product status indicates this part is no longer in active production. Selection of this substitute is appropriate only when existing inventory is available and long-term supply continuity is not a requirement.

5PB1104PGGI Selection Criteria: This substitute provides enhanced performance with 200 MHz maximum frequency capability, exceeding the PI6CV2304LEX specification. The extended supply voltage range (1.71V ~ 3.465V) provides greater design flexibility. Active product status and high inventory availability (30100 pcs) support long-term supply continuity. This substitute is suitable for applications where the PI6CV2304LEX frequency specification is adequate, as the 5PB1104PGGI operates within the required 140 MHz operating window while offering additional performance headroom. All compliance certifications (ROHS3, MSL 1) are maintained.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 2304NZGI-1LF be used as a direct replacement for the PI6CV2304LEX?

A: Yes, the 2304NZGI-1LF provides direct functional equivalence with identical 140 MHz frequency specification and matching 3V ~ 3.6V supply voltage range. Both parts share the same 8-TSSOP package and operating temperature range. However, the Obsolete product status of the 2304NZGI-1LF may limit availability for future production requirements.

Q: What are the advantages of using the 5PB1104PGGI over the PI6CV2304LEX?

A: The 5PB1104PGGI offers 200 MHz maximum frequency capability compared to the PI6CV2304LEX 140 MHz specification, providing additional performance margin. The extended supply voltage range (1.71V ~ 3.465V versus 3V ~ 3.6V) allows operation across a broader voltage envelope. Active product status and substantial inventory (30100 pcs) ensure supply availability. The part maintains identical package form factor and all compliance requirements.

Q: Are there any package or pinout differences between these substitute parts?

A: All three parts (PI6CV2304LEX, 2304NZGI-1LF, and 5PB1104PGGI) use the 8-TSSOP surface mount package with 0.173" width and 4.40mm body width. Mechanical compatibility is maintained across all substitutes.

Q: Do all substitute parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes, all three parts are ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating. REACH status is Unaffected for all parts, and all carry EAR99 ECCN classification.

Q: Which substitute should be selected for new designs?

A: For new designs, the 5PB1104PGGI is the recommended selection based on Active product status, high inventory availability, and enhanced frequency specification that provides performance margin beyond the 140 MHz requirement. The extended supply voltage range also supports broader application flexibility.
