Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the TPS2384PAPRG4 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

  • Channel Configuration: 4-channel architecture
  • PoE Standard Compliance: 802.3af (PoE)
  • Power Delivery Capacity: 15.4 W maximum
  • Internal Switch Functionality: Integrated switching capability
  • Supply Voltage Range: 44V ~ 57V
  • Package Type: 64-PowerTQFP (64-HTQFP 10x10)
  • Thermal Operating Range: -40°C ~ 125°C
  • Regulatory Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant, REACH Unaffected

The TPS2384PAPR qualifies as a direct substitute based on identical electrical specifications, thermal characteristics, package configuration, and regulatory certifications. The primary distinction is product status and packaging format availability.
