Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the TMS320DM6441ZWT is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical Compatibility:

• Identical clock rates: 513MHz DSP and 256MHz ARM® processor
• Matching core voltage specifications: 1.05V and 1.20V
• Matching I/O voltage specifications: 1.8V and 3.3V
• Identical on-chip memory configuration: 160kB RAM and 8kB ROM

Physical & Mechanical Compatibility:

• Package type: 361-LFBGA (Ball Grid Array)
• Supplier device package: 361-NFBGA (16x16)
• Surface mount mounting type
• Identical interface support: ASP, EBI/EMI, Host Interface, I2C, SPI, UART, USB

Compliance & Certification:

• RoHS3 compliance maintained
• Moisture Sensitivity Level 3 (168 Hours)
• REACH Unaffected status
• ECCN and HTSUS classifications

The substitute part TMS320DM6441AZWT meets all these criteria and is therefore electrically and mechanically interchangeable with the main part number.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The TMS320DM6441AZWT is the direct substitute for TMS320DM6441ZWT based on complete electrical and mechanical parameter equivalence. Both components are from the same manufacturer and series, with identical functional specifications and interface capabilities.

Product Status Consideration: The main part (TMS320DM6441ZWT) is classified as Obsolete, while the substitute (TMS320DM6441AZWT) is classified as Not For New Designs. This distinction indicates that the substitute part remains available in inventory but is not recommended for new design implementations. For existing systems requiring component replacement or maintenance stock, the TMS320DM6441AZWT provides full functional compatibility.

Compliance Alignment: Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance, identical moisture sensitivity specifications, and equivalent REACH and ECCN classifications, ensuring regulatory and supply chain compatibility.

Packaging Consideration: The substitute part is supplied in Tray packaging, whereas the main part packaging specification is not detailed. Verify packaging requirements for your specific procurement and handling procedures.
