SIM6813M Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The SIM6813M is a Power Management Integrated Circuit (PMIC) classified as a motor driver featuring Power MOSFET logic in a 40-DIP package. It functions as a half-bridge driver for Brushless DC (BLDC) motor applications in home appliances. The SIM6813M is currently listed as obsolete, making equivalent substitute parts necessary for ongoing design support and component procurement. The SIM6812M serves as the primary active substitute, offering compatible electrical and mechanical specifications with minor output current differences.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the SIM6813M is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

• Package / Case: 40-DIP (0.657", 16.70mm), 29 Leads — physical and pin compatibility
• Mounting Type: Through Hole — PCB assembly compatibility
• Output Configuration: Half Bridge (3) — functional topology match
• Motor Type: Brushless DC (BLDC) — application compatibility
• Voltage - Supply: 14.6V ~ 16.5V — power supply range
• Voltage - Load: 500V (Max) — maximum load voltage rating
• Operating Temperature: -20°C ~ 100°C (TA) — thermal operating range
• Technology: Power MOSFET — driver technology
• RoHS Status: RoHS Compliant — regulatory compliance

The SIM6812M meets all these criteria. The primary difference is output current capacity: SIM6813M provides 3A while SIM6812M provides 2.5A. This difference is acceptable in applications where the load current requirement does not exceed 2.5A.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

SIM6812M as Primary Substitute:

The SIM6812M is the recommended substitute for the obsolete SIM6813M. Both parts are manufactured by Sanken Electric USA Inc. and share identical electrical specifications for supply voltage, load voltage, operating temperature range, and package configuration. Both maintain RoHS compliance and MSL Level 1 rating.

The SIM6812M holds active product status, ensuring ongoing availability and supply chain continuity. The output current specification of 2.5A is lower than the SIM6813M's 3A rating. Selection of SIM6812M is appropriate for applications where the maximum output current requirement does not exceed 2.5A per half-bridge output.

For applications requiring the full 3A output current capacity of the original SIM6813M, alternative parts outside the provided substitute list must be evaluated.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can SIM6812M directly replace SIM6813M in existing designs?

A: Direct replacement is possible if the application's output current requirement does not exceed 2.5A. Both parts use identical 40-DIP packaging, pin configuration, and mounting type. Electrical specifications for supply voltage, load voltage, and operating temperature are identical. PCB layout and component placement require no modification.

Q: What is the primary difference between SIM6813M and SIM6812M?

A: The output current rating differs: SIM6813M is rated for 3A while SIM6812M is rated for 2.5A. All other electrical and mechanical parameters are identical. The SIM6812M is currently in active production status, whereas SIM6813M is obsolete.

Q: Are there any package or pinout differences?

A: No. Both parts use the 40-DIP (0.657", 16.70mm) package with 29 leads. Through-hole mounting type is identical. No PCB redesign is required for substitution.

Q: What compliance certifications apply to both parts?

A: Both SIM6813M and SIM6812M are RoHS Compliant and carry Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) 1 rating (Unlimited). Both are classified under ECCN EAR99 and HTSUS 8542.39.0001.

Q: Is SIM6812M suitable for home appliance BLDC motor driver applications?

A: Yes. SIM6812M is specified for Brushless DC (BLDC) motor driver applications in home appliances, identical to SIM6813M. The half-bridge (3) output configuration supports standard BLDC motor control topologies.
