Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Can RTC-8564JE:B3:ROHS be used as a direct replacement for RTC-8564JE:3?
A: Yes. The RTC-8564JE:B3:ROHS is the direct equivalent with identical electrical specifications, pinout, and 20-LSSOJ package. No circuit modifications are required. The primary differences are Active product status and ROHS3 compliance.
Q: What are the key differences between the EPSON RTC-8564JE:B3:ROHS and the Analog Devices DS1338U-18+T&R?
A: Both parts provide I2C Clock/Calendar functionality with matching time and date formats. Primary differences include: package form factor (20-LSSOJ vs. 8-TSSOP), voltage supply range (1.8V ~ 5.5V vs. 1.71V ~ 5.5V), and timekeeping current specifications. The DS1338U-18+T&R requires PCB layout redesign due to different package dimensions.
Q: Which substitute part has the lowest power consumption during timekeeping?
A: The Renesas 1337DVGI offers the lowest timekeeping current at 0.6µA @ 1.3V ~ 1.8V. The Abracon AB-RTCMC-32.768KHZ-IBO5-S3-T provides 0.29µA ~ 0.33µA @ 1.8V ~ 3V but is marked "Not For New Designs."
Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS compliant?
A: All substitute parts listed are ROHS3 compliant. The original RTC-8564JE:3 is RoHS non-compliant. The RTC-8564JE:B3:ROHS upgrade addresses this compliance requirement.
Q: What is the impact of package differences on circuit redesign?
A: The RTC-8564JE:3 and RTC-8564JE:B3:ROHS use identical 20-LSSOJ packages, requiring no redesign. Alternative packages (8-TSSOP, 8-SOIC, Module) require PCB layout modifications, schematic updates, and potential firmware adjustments for different pin assignments. Verify pinout compatibility before substitution.
Q: Can DS1307+ be used as a substitute?
A: DS1307+ is not recommended. Its operating temperature range (0°C ~ 70°C) does not meet the -40°C ~ 85°C requirement of the RTC-8564JE:3. Additionally, it uses Through Hole mounting, incompatible with surface mount assembly processes.
Q: What is the moisture sensitivity impact of substitute parts?
A: The RTC-8564JE:3 and most substitutes have MSL 1 (Unlimited). The Renesas 1337DVGI, 1339-31DVGI8, and Analog Devices DS3231M+ have MSL 3 (168 Hours), requiring controlled storage and handling procedures during manufacturing.
