Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute microcontrollers for PIC16CE625T-20E/SS are selected based strictly on equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters, ensuring direct compatibility. Parts are grouped as substitutes when they match the following defined criteria: manufacturer, PIC® 16C series, 8-bit PIC core, 20MHz speed, OTP program memory of 3.5KB (2K x 14), 128-byte EEPROM and RAM, identical I/O count (13), supply voltage range 3V ~ 5.5V, surface mount 20-SSOP packaging, and relevant compliance (RoHS3, REACH).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The main part, PIC16CE625T-20E/SS, is listed as obsolete. Substitute parts PIC16CE625-20E/SS and PIC16CE625-20I/SS conform to ROHS3, REACH, and ECCN requirements and have active product status. Selection between substitutes should be based on operating temperature range requirements and availability, as all other compliance and certifications parameters provided are equivalent.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What electrical parameters must match for substitution?
A1: Substitute microcontrollers must match the core processor type, core size, program memory size and type, I/O count, speed, EEPROM/RAM capacity, and supply voltage as specified.

Q2: What mechanical criteria are mandatory for compatibility?
A2: The mounting type, package / case, and supplier device package—specifically 20-SSOP (0.209", 5.30mm Width)—must be identical.

Q3: Are environmental ratings and compliance certifications relevant in substitution?
A3: Yes. ROHS3 compliance, REACH unaffected status, ECCN classification, and moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1 Unlimited) must align with the main part.

Q4: How do I select between available substitutes?
A4: Selection should strictly be based on suitably matching operating temperature ranges and confirming product status as active.

Q5: Can substitute parts be used for new designs?
A5: Only substitutes listed with an active product status should be considered, as obsolete components may not provide supply continuity or certification support.
