Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the TPIC6C596DRDN is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Logic Type: Shift Register
• Number of Elements: 1
• Number of Bits per Element: 8
• Output Type: Open Drain
• Function: Serial to Parallel, Serial
• Voltage - Supply: 4.5V ~ 5.5V
• Operating Temperature: -40°C ~ 125°C
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount
• Package / Case: 16-SOIC (0.154", 3.90mm Width)

All substitute parts listed below meet these electrical and mechanical requirements without exception. Substitution is valid only when all parameters align with the original specification.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

TPIC6C596D (Texas Instruments)

The TPIC6C596D is a direct parametric equivalent to the TPIC6C596DRDN. Both parts share identical electrical specifications, package configuration, and RoHS3 compliance status. The TPIC6C596D carries Last Time Buy status, indicating limited availability. Current inventory is 1955 pieces. This part is suitable for immediate replacement in existing designs but should not be selected for new long-term production due to its discontinued status.

TPIC6C596DG4 (Texas Instruments)

The TPIC6C596DG4 meets all electrical and mechanical parameters required for substitution. However, this part carries Obsolete product status, indicating it is no longer manufactured or supported. While parametrically equivalent, selection of this part is not recommended for any application due to severe supply constraints and lack of manufacturer support.

NPIC6C596D,118 (NXP USA Inc.)

The NPIC6C596D,118 is manufactured by NXP USA Inc. (Nexperia brand) and provides full parametric equivalence to the TPIC6C596DRDN across all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. This part maintains Active product status with current inventory of 7036 pieces, providing superior long-term availability. The NPIC6C596D,118 is the recommended substitute for new designs and ongoing production requirements. RoHS compliance and moisture sensitivity data are not specified in available documentation; verification with the manufacturer is advised for applications with specific environmental requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can TPIC6C596D be used as a direct replacement for TPIC6C596DRDN?

A: Yes. The TPIC6C596D is a parametric equivalent with identical electrical specifications, output type, supply voltage range, operating temperature range, and 16-SOIC package configuration. Pin-for-pin compatibility is maintained. However, both parts carry Last Time Buy or discontinued status, limiting long-term supply viability.

Q: Why is NPIC6C596D,118 recommended over other substitutes?

A: The NPIC6C596D,118 maintains Active product status with significantly higher current inventory (7036 pieces) compared to other alternatives. It meets all mandatory electrical and mechanical parameters without exception. Active status ensures ongoing manufacturer support and predictable supply chain availability for future production runs.

Q: Are there package compatibility concerns when substituting these parts?

A: No. All substitute parts use the 16-SOIC (0.154", 3.90mm Width) package configuration. PCB footprints, land patterns, and assembly processes remain unchanged. No design modifications are required.

Q: What is the difference between 16-SOIC and 16-SO package designations?

A: Both designations refer to the same 16-pin Small Outline Integrated Circuit package with 0.154-inch width. The NPIC6C596D,118 uses the 16-SO designation while other parts use 16-SOIC; these are functionally equivalent package specifications.

Q: Does the NPIC6C596D,118 meet RoHS3 compliance requirements?

A: RoHS3 compliance status is not specified in the available technical data for the NPIC6C596D,118. For applications requiring verified RoHS3 compliance, contact NXP USA Inc. directly to obtain current certification documentation.

Q: Should TPIC6C596DG4 be considered as a substitute?

A: No. Although TPIC6C596DG4 is parametrically equivalent, its Obsolete product status indicates discontinued manufacturing and no manufacturer support. Selection of this part creates unacceptable supply chain risk and is not recommended for any application.
