Equivalent & Substitute Parts Reference: PMG8618LP

Part Overview

The PMG8618LP by Flex Power Modules is a DC DC converter classified as a non-isolated Point-of-Load (PoL) module, offering a wide output voltage range (1.2V to 5.5V), a maximum output current of 12A, and 66W maximum output power. It is designed for ITE (commercial) applications and packaged in a 10-DIP through-hole module with adjustable output, remote enable, and advanced certifications. As the PMG8618LP is currently listed as obsolete, it is necessary to identify and evaluate substitute models to maintain device design continuity and production support.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For continuity of supply, substitute selection should prioritize models listed as “Active” with equivalent compliance profiles (ROHS3, REACH unaffected, ECCN, HTSUS) and matching certifications. PTH12010WAH is suitable for direct replacement as it matches the electrical, mechanical, and regulatory criteria required for the DC DC converter category.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What defines a valid substitute for PMG8618LP in DC DC converter applications?
A: A valid substitute must match the input voltage range, output voltage range, maximum output current, package type, mounting style, operating temperature range, and required compliance standards.

Q2: Are PMG8618LP and PTH12010WAH interchangeable mechanically?
A: Both parts share the same 10-DIP module footprint and through-hole mounting, supporting drop-in replacement in layouts designed for this package.

Q3: Does the substitute maintain regulatory compliance?
A: Both PMG8618LP and PTH12010WAH are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, with identical ECCN and HTSUS categorization.

Q4: Is there any performance difference to consider?
A: Both components provide a maximum output current of 12A and output voltage range of 1.2V to 5.5V, with efficiency values of 94.5% (PMG8618LP) and 94% (PTH12010WAH).

Q5: Why seek an alternative for PMG8618LP?
A: The PMG8618LP is listed as obsolete; substitutes like PTH12010WAH are active and maintain equivalent technical and regulatory characteristics for uninterrupted production and maintenance.
