Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the PI90LV047ALE is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Protocol: LVDS (Low-Voltage Differential Signaling)
• Driver/Receiver Configuration: 4/0 (4 drivers, 0 receivers)
• Data Rate: 400Mbps
• Supply Voltage Range: 3V ~ 3.6V
• Operating Temperature Range: -40°C ~ 85°C
• Package Type: 16-TSSOP with identical physical dimensions (0.173", 4.40mm Width)
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount

The identified substitute parts maintain full electrical and mechanical compatibility with the original component across all specified parameters. Both substitute parts are manufactured by Texas Instruments and carry active product status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both SN65LVDS047PW and SN65LVDS047PWR are direct functional equivalents to the PI90LV047ALE. The primary distinction between the two Texas Instruments alternatives lies in packaging format and inventory availability:

SN65LVDS047PW is supplied in Tube packaging and maintains 2100 units in stock inventory.

SN65LVDS047PWR is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) & Digi-Reel® packaging with 10000 units in stock inventory, providing greater availability for high-volume applications.

Both parts carry active product status, ensuring continued manufacturer support and supply chain reliability. All three components maintain identical ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, meeting current regulatory requirements for electronic component manufacturing and distribution.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can SN65LVDS047PW and SN65LVDS047PWR be used interchangeably with PI90LV047ALE?

A: Yes. Both Texas Instruments parts are electrically and mechanically equivalent. They share identical LVDS protocol implementation, 4/0 driver/receiver configuration, 400Mbps data rate, 3V to 3.6V supply voltage range, -40°C to 85°C operating temperature range, and 16-TSSOP package dimensions. The difference between the two TI parts is packaging format only.

Q: What is the difference between SN65LVDS047PW and SN65LVDS047PWR?

A: Both parts are functionally identical. SN65LVDS047PW uses Tube packaging, while SN65LVDS047PWR uses Cut Tape (CT) & Digi-Reel® packaging. Selection depends on assembly process requirements and volume needs. SN65LVDS047PWR offers higher inventory availability.

Q: Why is the PI90LV047ALE listed as obsolete?

A: Obsolete status indicates the manufacturer has discontinued production. Texas Instruments SN65LVDS047PW and SN65LVDS047PWR provide active product alternatives with ongoing manufacturer support and guaranteed long-term availability.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between the original and substitute parts?

A: No. All three parts maintain ROHS3 compliance, REACH unaffected status, and MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating. Regulatory and environmental compliance requirements are identical across all options.

Q: Can these parts be used in new designs?

A: Yes. The Texas Instruments SN65LVDS047PW and SN65LVDS047PWR are active products suitable for new design implementations. The PI90LV047ALE should not be used in new designs due to obsolete status.
