Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the USB2240-AEZG-05 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Base product number match (USB2240 series)
• Identical package specification (36-VFQFN Exposed Pad / 36-QFN 6x6)
• Compatible supply voltage (3.3V operation)
• Surface mount mounting type
• Equivalent regulatory compliance (ROHS3, REACH Unaffected)
• Matching ECCN and HTSUS classifications

The USB2240-AEZG-06 qualifies as a direct substitute based on these criteria, sharing the same base product designation, package geometry, and regulatory certifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The USB2240-AEZG-06 is the qualified substitute for the obsolete USB2240-AEZG-05. Both components share identical package specifications, regulatory compliance certifications, and export classifications.
