TPS53319: Suggested Alternative - Reasoning?

Francisco Loras
Prodigy 10 points
Part Number: TPS53319

Hello,

We're currently looking at using the TPS53319 part for a design. This part doesn't have any EOL notifications and is currenty active. However, I do see that it recommends alternatives for it:

Recommended alternative parts

  • TPS548A20  -  4.5V to 25V input, DCAP3 Mode, 15-A Synchronous Step-Down SWIFT Converter

I was wondering why an alternative is recommended if this part is currently active or if such reasoning could be found anywhere? I don't want to use a part in my design that has known issues - but I wouldn't expect the part to be active if that is the case. Just asking for clarification on this since I haven't encountered it before.

    Francisco,

    There are no issues with TPS53319. Almost every part has links to alternatives on the product page. They are just possible alternatives in case you are looking for something similar but slightly different. You are not the first to be confused by the wording.
