Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the TPS72201DBVRG4 are determined by electrical and mechanical parameter equivalence within the TPS72201 product family. The following criteria establish valid substitution:

Electrical Parameters (Must Match):

• Output Configuration: Positive
• Output Type: Adjustable
• Voltage - Input (Max): 5.5V
• Voltage - Output (Min/Fixed): 1.22V
• Voltage - Output (Max): 2.5V
• Current - Output: 50mA
• Voltage Dropout (Max): 0.1V @ 50mA
• Operating Temperature: -40°C ~ 125°C

Mechanical Parameters (Must Match):

• Package / Case: SC-74A, SOT-753
• Supplier Device Package: SOT-23-5
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount

Compliance Parameters (Must Match):

• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL): 1 (Unlimited)

The TPS72201DBVRG4 differs from its substitutes only in packaging format (DiGi Electronics Tube vs. Tape & Reel). All electrical and functional specifications remain identical across the TPS72201 variant family.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both TPS72201DBVR and TPS72201DBVT are direct functional equivalents to the discontinued TPS72201DBVRG4. Selection between these substitutes is determined by procurement requirements and packaging format:

TPS72201DBVR (MFR Recommended): This part carries manufacturer recommendation status and maintains the highest inventory availability at 61942 units. It is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format, standard for high-volume production and automated assembly processes. Active product status ensures long-term availability and continued manufacturer support.

TPS72201DBVT (Parametric Equivalent): This part is electrically and functionally identical to TPS72201DBVR and is also supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format. Active product status confirms ongoing availability. Inventory of 2100 units supports lower-volume applications.

Both substitutes maintain ROHS3 compliance and MSL Level 1 rating, matching the original part's environmental and regulatory qualifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can TPS72201DBVR or TPS72201DBVT be used as direct replacements for TPS72201DBVRG4?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical to the TPS72201DBVRG4. All electrical parameters, output specifications, operating temperature range, and package dimensions are equivalent. The only difference is packaging format (Tape & Reel vs. DiGi Electronics Tube).

Q: What is the difference between TPS72201DBVR and TPS72201DBVT?

A: Both parts are identical in electrical specifications and package format (SOT-23-5, Tape & Reel). The difference is inventory availability and product designation. TPS72201DBVR carries manufacturer recommendation status with higher stock levels.

Q: Are these parts suitable for the same PCB assembly process?

A: Yes. All three parts use the same SOT-23-5 package and Surface Mount technology. Tape & Reel packaging (TPS72201DBVR and TPS72201DBVT) is standard for automated pick-and-place assembly. No PCB layout or footprint changes are required.

Q: Do the substitute parts maintain the same compliance certifications?

A: Yes. Both TPS72201DBVR and TPS72201DBVT are ROHS3 compliant with MSL Level 1 rating, identical to the original TPS72201DBVRG4.

Q: What is the minimum order quantity for these substitutes?

A: Tape & Reel packaging typically supports standard industry reel quantities. Contact your supplier for specific minimum order requirements and lead times.
