TLE2426IPG4 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The TLE2426IPG4 is a Ground Reference (Virtual) Voltage Reference IC manufactured by Texas Instruments, designed for power management applications. This adjustable voltage reference operates across a 2V to 20V output range with ±1% tolerance and supports output currents up to 20 mA. The device is packaged in an 8-PDIP through-hole configuration.

The TLE2426IPG4 has been discontinued at DiGi Electronics, making identification of functionally equivalent alternatives necessary for ongoing design support and production continuity. Substitute parts must maintain identical electrical specifications and mechanical compatibility to ensure direct replacement capability.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the TLE2426IPG4 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Reference Type: Ground Reference (Virtual)
• Output Type: Adjustable
• Voltage Output Range: 2V to 20V
• Output Current: 20 mA
• Tolerance: ±1%
• Temperature Coefficient: 35 ppm/°C Typical
• Noise Performance: 120 µVrms (10Hz to 10kHz)
• Input Voltage Range: 4V ~ 40V
• Supply Current: 400 µA
• Operating Temperature Range: -40°C ~ 85°C
• Package: 8-DIP (0.300", 7.62mm)
• RoHS Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant

The TLE2426IP meets all substitution criteria as a direct equivalent, differing only in packaging format (Tube versus standard packaging) and product lifecycle status.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The TLE2426IP is a direct functional equivalent to the TLE2426IPG4 and is suitable for substitution in all applications requiring a Ground Reference (Virtual) Voltage Reference IC with the specified electrical and mechanical characteristics.

Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH Unaffected status, ensuring regulatory alignment for current manufacturing standards. The TLE2426IP carries a Last Time Buy status, indicating limited availability; procurement planning should account for this lifecycle stage.

The primary distinction between the two parts is packaging format. The TLE2426IPG4 uses standard packaging, while the TLE2426IP is supplied in Tube packaging. This difference does not affect electrical performance or mechanical compatibility in through-hole PCB applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the TLE2426IP be used as a direct replacement for the TLE2426IPG4?

A: Yes. Both parts are manufactured by Texas Instruments and share identical electrical specifications, including output voltage range (2V to 20V), output current (20 mA), tolerance (±1%), and operating temperature range (-40°C to 85°C). Both use the same 8-DIP package footprint, enabling direct PCB substitution.

Q: What is the difference between TLE2426IPG4 and TLE2426IP?

A: The parts are electrically identical. The primary difference is packaging format: TLE2426IPG4 uses standard packaging, while TLE2426IP is supplied in Tube packaging. Both maintain the same 8-DIP (0.300", 7.62mm) through-hole configuration.

Q: Are there any compliance or regulatory differences between these parts?

A: No. Both parts are ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected, meeting current regulatory requirements for electronic component manufacturing and use.

Q: What is the significance of the "Last Time Buy" status for TLE2426IP?

A: Last Time Buy indicates that the manufacturer has announced end-of-life for this part number. Inventory availability is limited, and no further production is planned. Procurement should be completed within the specified Last Time Buy window to ensure supply continuity.

Q: Are the electrical characteristics identical between these parts?

A: Yes. Both parts provide identical performance across all specified parameters: reference type, output type, voltage range, current capacity, tolerance, temperature coefficient, noise performance, input voltage range, supply current, and operating temperature range.
