Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the USB7006T-I/KDX is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

Electrical Compatibility Requirements:

• Identical protocol support (USB 2.0, USB 3.2)
• Matching interface types (GPIO, I2C, SPI, USB)
• Equivalent supply voltage ranges (1.08V – 1.32V, 3V – 3.6V)
• Identical operating temperature range (-40°C to +85°C)

Mechanical & Packaging Requirements:

• Identical package type (100-VQFN with 12x12mm dimensions and Exposed Pad)
• Same pin count and footprint

Compliance & Certification Requirements:

• Automotive grade classification
• AEC-Q100 qualification
• ROHS3 compliance
• REACH Unaffected status

Functional Requirements:

• Hub Controller function classification
• USB 3.1 GEN1 operation without Power Delivery

The USB7016T-I/KDX meets all substitution criteria and is classified as a parametric equivalent. Differences in Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL 3 versus MSL 1) and specific port configuration do not affect electrical or mechanical substitutability in standard operating environments.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the USB7006T-I/KDX and USB7016T-I/KDX maintain Active product status with full Automotive grade qualification and AEC-Q100 certification, ensuring long-term availability and compliance with automotive industry standards. The USB7016T-I/KDX is electrically and mechanically interchangeable with the USB7006T-I/KDX across all critical parameters including protocol support, voltage specifications, temperature range, and package configuration.

The primary distinction between these components is the Moisture Sensitivity Level classification. The USB7006T-I/KDX carries MSL 1 (Unlimited), while the USB7016T-I/KDX carries MSL 3 (168 Hours). This difference reflects handling and storage requirements but does not affect in-service performance or electrical characteristics. Selection between these parts should be based on supply chain availability, inventory status, and specific manufacturing process requirements related to moisture exposure during assembly.

Both components are ROHS3 compliant and REACH Unaffected, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements for electronic component manufacturing and deployment.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the USB7016T-I/KDX directly replace the USB7006T-I/KDX in existing circuit designs?

A: Yes. The USB7016T-I/KDX is a parametric equivalent with identical electrical specifications, interface types, supply voltage ranges, operating temperature range, and package configuration. No circuit modifications are required for direct substitution.

Q: What does the difference in Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL 1 versus MSL 3) mean for component selection?

A: MSL classification defines the maximum time a component can be exposed to moisture before soldering. MSL 1 (Unlimited) allows indefinite storage in standard conditions, while MSL 3 (168 Hours) requires soldering within 168 hours of moisture exposure. This affects handling and storage procedures but does not impact electrical performance or in-service reliability.

Q: Are both parts qualified for Automotive applications?

A: Yes. Both the USB7006T-I/KDX and USB7016T-I/KDX carry Automotive grade classification with AEC-Q100 qualification, meeting automotive industry reliability and quality standards.

Q: Do these parts support the same USB protocols and interface types?

A: Yes. Both components support USB 2.0 and USB 3.2 standards with identical GPIO, I2C, SPI, and USB interface configurations.

Q: Is the physical package identical between these two parts?

A: Yes. Both components use the 100-VQFN (12x12mm) package with Exposed Pad configuration, ensuring identical PCB footprint and pin assignments.

Q: What is the supply voltage requirement for both parts?

A: Both components operate with dual supply voltage ranges: 1.08V to 1.32V and 3V to 3.6V, providing flexibility for multi-voltage system designs.

Q: Are there any compliance or regulatory differences between these parts?

A: No. Both components are ROHS3 compliant and REACH Unaffected, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements identically.
