Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the PIC24FV16KM102-E/SS is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Identical core processor architecture (PIC 16-Bit)
• Matching clock speed (32MHz)
• Equivalent program memory capacity (16KB FLASH)
• Identical RAM and EEPROM sizes (1K x 8 and 512 x 8 respectively)
• Same supply voltage range (2V ~ 5V)
• Identical I/O count (23 pins)
• Matching connectivity interfaces (I2C, IrDA, LINbus, SPI, UART/USART)
• Identical peripheral feature set
• Same package type and pinout (28-SSOP)

The PIC24FV16KM102-I/SS qualifies as a direct substitute based on complete alignment with these parameters. The primary distinction is product status and operating temperature range, which do not affect functional substitution in applications designed for the original part.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The PIC24FV16KM102-I/SS is the direct substitute for the obsolete PIC24FV16KM102-E/SS. Both parts maintain identical electrical specifications, memory configurations, and peripheral functionality. The substitute part carries Active product status, ensuring continued availability and manufacturer support.

Both parts comply with ROHS3 standards and carry unlimited moisture sensitivity ratings, indicating equivalent environmental robustness. The operating temperature range difference (-40°C ~ 125°C versus -40°C ~ 85°C) should be evaluated against specific application requirements. Applications operating within the -40°C ~ 85°C range experience no functional limitation with the substitute part.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are the PIC24FV16KM102-E/SS and PIC24FV16KM102-I/SS pin-compatible?

A: Yes. Both parts use the 28-SSOP package with identical pinout and electrical characteristics. Direct socket substitution is supported without circuit modification.

Q: What is the significance of the temperature range difference?

A: The original part operates to 125°C; the substitute operates to 85°C. Applications designed for operation within -40°C to 85°C experience no impact. Applications requiring operation above 85°C require thermal analysis to confirm the substitute part's suitability.

Q: Why is the original part classified as obsolete?

A: Microchip Technology has transitioned this product to end-of-life status. The PIC24FV16KM102-I/SS remains in active production and is the recommended replacement for new designs and ongoing support.

Q: Are there any differences in programming or firmware compatibility?

A: No. Both parts share identical instruction set architecture, memory organization, and peripheral register definitions. Firmware developed for the original part executes without modification on the substitute.

Q: What packaging options are available for the substitute part?

A: The PIC24FV16KM102-I/SS is supplied in Tube packaging, whereas the original part was supplied in standard packaging. Both contain identical die and functionality.
