Engineering Selection Recommendations
All listed substitute parts maintain Active product status and ROHS3 compliance, ensuring long-term availability and regulatory conformance. Selection among substitutes depends on specific design constraints:
For Direct Pin-Compatible Replacement: DS1338Z-33+ and DS1307ZN+ provide 8-SOIC packages with matching -40°C ~ 85°C operating temperature range and I2C interface. Both support 12/24-hour time format and YY-MM-DD-dd date format with additional NVSRAM and square wave output features.
For Low-Voltage Applications: DS1339AU+T supports supply voltage down to 1.71V, closely matching the RX-8803LC:UC3 PURE SN lower limit of 1.6V. This part includes alarm functionality and operates across the full -40°C ~ 85°C temperature range in an 8-TSSOP package.
For Extended Feature Set: DS1308U-33+ and DS1308U-33+T offer NVSRAM capability with 56B memory, leap year support, and square wave output in 8-TSSOP packages. Both support 3V ~ 5.5V supply range and -40°C ~ 85°C operating temperature.
For Higher Pin Count Applications: DS1338C-33#T&R and DS1340C-33# provide 16-SOIC packages with expanded functionality. DS1340C-33# includes trickle-charger capability and operates from 2.97V ~ 5.5V.
Package Consideration: The original RX-8803LC:UC3 PURE SN uses a 12-TFSOJ package. Direct package replacement is not available among listed substitutes. PCB layout modification is required for any substitute implementation.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Can DS1338Z-33+ directly replace RX-8803LC:UC3 PURE SN? A: DS1338Z-33+ matches the I2C interface, -40°C ~ 85°C operating temperature, and 3V ~ 5.5V supply range overlap. However, the package differs (8-SOIC vs. 12-TFSOJ), requiring PCB redesign. Functional compatibility is confirmed for clock/calendar and alarm operations.
Q: What is the key difference between DS1307+ and DS1307ZN+? A: DS1307+ uses an 8-DIP through-hole package with 0°C ~ 70°C operating temperature. DS1307ZN+ uses an 8-SOIC surface-mount package with -40°C ~ 85°C operating temperature, matching the RX-8803LC:UC3 PURE SN temperature range. Both share identical I2C interface and 56B NVSRAM.
Q: Why does BQ32000DR have a narrower supply voltage range? A: BQ32000DR operates from 3V ~ 3.6V, which does not cover the full 1.6V ~ 5.5V range of RX-8803LC:UC3 PURE SN. This part is suitable only for applications with fixed 3V ~ 3.6V supply. The narrower range reflects Texas Instruments' design optimization for specific voltage domains.
Q: Is DS1339AU+T suitable for battery-backed applications? A: DS1339AU+T supports battery supply from 1.3V ~ 3.7V and includes trickle-charger functionality. The main supply range of 1.71V ~ 5.5V overlaps with RX-8803LC:UC3 PURE SN. This part is suitable for battery-backed real-time clock applications.
Q: What does NVSRAM mean in the DS1338 and DS1308 series? A: NVSRAM (Non-Volatile Static RAM) provides 56 bytes of non-volatile memory for data storage beyond clock/calendar functions. RX-8803LC:UC3 PURE SN does not specify memory size, indicating no dedicated NVSRAM. DS1338 and DS1308 series offer this as an additional feature.
Q: Can I use a 16-SOIC package substitute in place of the 12-TFSOJ original? A: No direct pin-for-pin replacement is possible. DS1338C-33#T&R and DS1340C-33# use 16-SOIC packages with different pinouts. Functional substitution requires complete PCB redesign and firmware validation of the new pin assignments.
Q: Which substitute has the lowest timekeeping current consumption? A: BQ32000DR specifies 100µA @ 3.3V timekeeping current. DS1339AU+T specifies 200µA @ 1.71V ~ 5.5V. The RX-8803LC:UC3 PURE SN specifies 2.1µA ~ 3.4µA @ 3V ~ 5V, which is significantly lower than all listed substitutes. Low-power applications should prioritize the original part.
Q: Are all substitutes RoHS3 compliant? A: Yes. All listed substitute parts carry ROHS3 Compliant status, matching the RX-8803LC:UC3 PURE SN compliance level.
