TS3A27518E: Replacement for EOL BGA package

Part Number: TS3A27518E
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TS3A27518, , TMUX154E, TMUX1574

Hello,

My customer is using TS3A27518 in their new module project and learnt that TI just EOL’ed BGA package. From the PCN we understand that they should use the WQFN package instead. As this module is quite space constraint, we are looking for a replacement that is about same size. Which device do you recommend?

Application for this device is switching SDIO signals between SD card and WiFi module.

Thanks,

Shashank

  • Shashank,

    The TS3A27518E is the only 6-channel 2:1 device in the current portfolio offering.  The BGA package is 3mm x 3mm (9 mm^2) and the WQN is 4 mm x 4 mm  (16 mm^2). 

    If you want to use multiple ICs to achieve a total 8 mm ^2 solution, you can use a 4-channel 2:1 device like the TMUX1574 1.86mm x 2.60mm (5mm^2) paired with a 2-channel 2:1 device like TMUX154E 1.4 mm x 1.8 mm (3mm^2).

    Another option is using 2x TMUX1574 devices 1.8 mm x 2.6 mm (4.68mm ^2 * 2 = 9.36 mm ^2) 

    Thank you,

    Adam
