XRT6164AIP-F Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The XRT6164AIP-F is a full-duplex 1/1 transceiver interface IC manufactured by MaxLinear, Inc., housed in a 16-DIP package. This component is classified as obsolete, making identification of suitable substitute parts essential for ongoing system support and new design implementations. The part operates within a 4.75V to 5.25V supply voltage range and supports operating temperatures from -40°C to 85°C. Due to its obsolete status, equivalent parts with compatible electrical and mechanical specifications are required for procurement and design continuity.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the XRT6164AIP-F are identified based on the following critical parameters:

• Transceiver Type & Configuration: Full-duplex 1/1 driver/receiver architecture
• Supply Voltage Compatibility: 4.75V ~ 5.25V operating range
• Operating Temperature Range: -40°C ~ 85°C
• Mounting Technology: Through-hole configuration
• Package Form Factor: DIP package with 0.300" (7.62mm) pitch

The MAX489EPD+ qualifies as a substitute based on matching duplex configuration (full), driver/receiver count (1/1), supply voltage range (4.75V ~ 5.25V), operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 85°C), and through-hole mounting. While the MAX489EPD+ uses a 14-DIP package compared to the 16-DIP of the XRT6164AIP-F, both maintain compatible DIP pitch specifications and through-hole mounting technology, allowing for board-level adaptation through standard PCB layout modifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MAX489EPD+ is an active-status substitute for the obsolete XRT6164AIP-F. Both components share identical electrical specifications for supply voltage (4.75V ~ 5.25V) and operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 85°C), with matching 1/1 full-duplex transceiver architecture. The MAX489EPD+ carries ROHS3 compliance certification, providing regulatory advantage for new designs and long-term procurement stability.

The primary design consideration is package pin count: the XRT6164AIP-F uses 16 pins while the MAX489EPD+ uses 14 pins. PCB layout modification is required to accommodate this difference. Both components maintain identical DIP pitch (0.300", 7.62mm) and through-hole mounting technology, enabling straightforward adapter solutions or redesigned footprints.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the MAX489EPD+ directly replace the XRT6164AIP-F without PCB modifications?

A: Direct socket replacement is not possible due to different pin counts (14-DIP vs. 16-DIP). PCB layout modification or an adapter solution is required. Pin function mapping must be verified against both datasheets before implementation.

Q: Are the electrical operating ranges identical between these parts?

A: Yes. Both components operate within 4.75V to 5.25V supply voltage and -40°C to 85°C temperature ranges, ensuring electrical compatibility in equivalent circuit designs.

Q: What is the significance of the XRT6164AIP-F being obsolete?

A: Obsolete status indicates the part is no longer manufactured or supported by MaxLinear, Inc. Substitute parts with active production status, such as the MAX489EPD+, ensure long-term availability and supply chain continuity.

Q: Does the MAX489EPD+ offer any compliance advantages?

A: Yes. The MAX489EPD+ is ROHS3 compliant, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements. This certification supports compliance requirements for new product designs and international markets.

Q: Are moisture sensitivity levels equivalent?

A: Yes. Both components carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) classification, indicating no moisture sensitivity constraints during storage or handling.
