Analog Switches - Special Purpose Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix and package variant when sourcing. Confirm RoHS compliance status and moisture sensitivity level requirements for your assembly process. Ensure the supplier provides official datasheets matching the EL4544 part number to guarantee functional specifications. Check for any recent product change notices regarding labeling or manufacturing site updates.

Analog Switches - Special Purpose Selection Notes

Select this component when a 16-input by 5-output RGB crosspoint matrix is required. Ensure the design accommodates the 356-pin BGA footprint and thermal requirements. Verify that the system power supply aligns with the specified 4.75V-5.25V or 2.4V-3.6V ranges. Consider the 300MHz bandwidth limit relative to the highest frequency components of the video signals being routed.

Analog Switches - Special Purpose Part Context

The EL4544 belongs to the EL45xx series of video crosspoint switches from Renesas. This series is designed for professional video applications requiring reliable signal switching between multiple sources and destinations. The IGZ suffix typically indicates a lead-free, halogen-free RoHS-compliant version in a specific BGA package.

Analog Switches - Special Purpose Replacement Considerations

Consult the official Renesas EL4544 datasheet for direct pin-compatible substitutes or functionally equivalent devices within the same family. Verify that any alternative component matches the 16x5 configuration and 300MHz bandwidth specification.
