TPIC6C595D Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The TPIC6C595D is an 8-bit shift register with open drain output, manufactured by Texas Instruments in a 16-SOIC surface mount package. This device functions as a serial-to-parallel converter and is designed for logic-level applications requiring power output capabilities. The part is currently active in production with 1950 units in stock.

Substitute parts become necessary when the primary part reaches end-of-life status, experiences supply constraints, or when alternative manufacturers' components meet identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The parts listed below maintain full compatibility based on matching core parameters: logic type, output configuration, bit width, package form factor, voltage supply range, and operating temperature range.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the TPIC6C595D is determined by strict equivalence across the following parameters:

• Logic Type: Shift Register
• Output Type: Open Drain
• Bit Configuration: 1 Element, 8 Bits per Element
• Function: Serial to Parallel, Serial
• Voltage Supply Range: 4.5V ~ 5.5V
• Operating Temperature Range: -40°C ~ 125°C
• Package: 16-SOIC (0.154", 3.90mm Width)
• Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant, REACH Unaffected

All substitute parts listed maintain these core specifications. Variations in product status, packaging format (tube vs. cut tape), and moisture sensitivity level do not affect functional interchangeability in circuit applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Substitute (Active Status): STPIC6C595MTR (STMicroelectronics) is the recommended substitute for new designs and long-term supply assurance. This part maintains active production status and offers the highest inventory availability (305,400 units). Both ROHS3 and REACH compliance are met. The MSL rating of 3 (168 hours) requires standard moisture control during storage and handling, consistent with industry practice for surface mount components.

Alternative Substitute (Active Status): STPIC6D595MTR (STMicroelectronics) provides equivalent functionality with active product status and substantial inventory (40,100 units). This part is suitable for applications where supply continuity is prioritized.

Secondary Options (Limited Availability): TPIC6C595DG4 (Texas Instruments) remains available with 2,740 units in stock but is discontinued at DiGi Electronics. TPIC6C596D carries Last Time Buy status with 1,955 units available. TPIC6C596DG4 is obsolete and should not be selected for new applications.

All substitute parts satisfy the electrical and mechanical requirements for direct circuit replacement without design modification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can STPIC6C595MTR replace TPIC6C595D in existing designs? A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically equivalent across all specified parameters: 8-bit shift register, open drain output, 4.5V–5.5V supply, -40°C to 125°C operating range, and 16-SOIC package. No circuit redesign is required.

Q: What is the significance of the MSL rating difference between TPIC6C595D (MSL 1) and STPIC6C595MTR (MSL 3)? A: MSL 1 indicates unlimited shelf life under controlled conditions. MSL 3 requires storage at ≤30°C and ≤60% relative humidity, with a 168-hour floor life after bag opening. For standard manufacturing environments with proper moisture control, this difference does not affect component reliability or performance.

Q: Why is TPIC6C596D listed as a substitute if it has a different base product number? A: TPIC6C596D maintains identical electrical specifications and package configuration as TPIC6C595D. The base product number difference reflects internal Texas Instruments product line organization but does not affect functional compatibility in circuit applications.

Q: Are there any package format considerations when substituting TPIC6C595D (Tube) with STPIC6C595MTR (Cut Tape & Digi-Reel)? A: No functional difference exists. Tube and cut tape are packaging and delivery formats only. The 16-SOIC component itself is identical. Selection between formats depends on assembly process requirements and order quantity.

Q: Which substitute offers the best long-term supply assurance? A: STPIC6C595MTR (STMicroelectronics) is the optimal choice for supply continuity, with active production status and the highest inventory level (305,400 units). This part is suitable for high-volume production and long-lifecycle applications.
