TPS2223APWPRG4 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The TPS2223APWPRG4 is a Power Management Integrated Circuit (PMIC) functioning as a power switch/driver with 3:4 input-to-output ratio and 1A maximum output current. This component is designed for PCMCIA switch applications with high-side output configuration and serial interface control. The TPS2223APWPRG4 is currently discontinued at DiGi Electronics, necessitating identification of equivalent substitute parts to maintain design continuity and ensure component availability for production and maintenance applications.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the TPS2223APWPRG4 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Switch Type: PCMCIA Switch
• Number of Outputs: 4
• Ratio - Input:Output: 3:4
• Output Configuration: High Side
• Interface: Serial
• Voltage - Load: 3.3V, 5V
• Current - Output (Max): 1A
• Rds On (Typ): 95mOhm
• Features: Status Flag
• Fault Protection: Current Limiting (Fixed), Over Temperature
• Operating Temperature: -40°C ~ 85°C (TA)
• Package / Case: 24-PowerTSSOP (0.173", 4.40mm Width)
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant

Substitute parts are classified into two categories based on product status and packaging configuration:

MFR Recommended Substitute: TPS2223APWPR meets all electrical and mechanical parameters with active product status and tape & reel packaging.

Parametric Equivalent: TPS2223PWPR matches all electrical specifications and package requirements but carries discontinued status at DiGi Electronics.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Selection: TPS2223APWPR

The TPS2223APWPR is the manufacturer-recommended substitute for the discontinued TPS2223APWPRG4. This part maintains complete electrical and mechanical equivalence across all critical parameters including switch type, output configuration, current rating, and thermal specifications. The TPS2223APWPR carries active product status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity. Packaging is supplied in tape & reel format, suitable for automated assembly processes. Moisture sensitivity level is rated at MSL 2 (1 Year), requiring standard moisture control during storage and handling. ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status confirm regulatory alignment with current environmental standards.

Secondary Selection: TPS2223PWPR

The TPS2223PWPR provides parametric equivalence with identical electrical specifications and package configuration. However, this part is discontinued at DiGi Electronics, limiting its suitability for new production applications. This option may be considered only when existing inventory is available and supply chain constraints prevent access to the primary substitute.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can TPS2223APWPR be used as a direct replacement for TPS2223APWPRG4?

A: Yes. The TPS2223APWPR is electrically and mechanically equivalent across all specified parameters. Both parts feature identical PCMCIA switch functionality, 3:4 input-to-output ratio, 1A maximum output current, 95mOhm typical on-resistance, and 24-PowerTSSOP package configuration. The primary difference is product status: TPS2223APWPR is active, while TPS2223APWPRG4 is discontinued.

Q: What is the difference between TPS2223APWPR and TPS2223PWPR?

A: Both parts are parametrically equivalent with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The distinction lies in product status: TPS2223APWPR is active and recommended by the manufacturer, while TPS2223PWPR is discontinued at DiGi Electronics. For new designs and production, TPS2223APWPR is the preferred choice.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these substitutes?

A: The TPS2223APWPR is supplied in tape & reel (TR) packaging, optimized for automated assembly. The TPS2223APWPRG4 and TPS2223PWPR packaging specifications do not specify tape & reel format. All three parts use the identical 24-PowerTSSOP (0.173", 4.40mm Width) case.

Q: What is the moisture sensitivity level difference, and does it affect compatibility?

A: The TPS2223APWPRG4 has MSL 1 (Unlimited), while TPS2223APWPR and TPS2223PWPR have MSL 2 (1 Year). MSL 2 requires moisture control during storage and handling within a one-year period. This does not affect electrical compatibility but requires adherence to standard moisture management protocols during component storage and assembly.

Q: Are all three parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. TPS2223APWPRG4, TPS2223APWPR, and TPS2223PWPR are all ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, confirming compliance with current environmental regulations.

Q: Which part should be selected for new production designs?

A: TPS2223APWPR is the recommended selection for new production. This part maintains active product status, ensuring availability and supply chain stability. It meets all electrical and mechanical requirements of the original TPS2223APWPRG4 specification.
