Procurement Notes

This part number is officially discontinued and no longer manufactured by NXP Semiconductors. Historical specifications are available for reference only. Verify end-of-life status before design inclusion. Sourcing new units from authorized distributors is not possible; consider secondary market availability or qualified replacement components for new designs.

Selection Notes

Select this component only for legacy system maintenance or repair where the original specification is mandatory. Evaluate alternative drivers if designing new hardware, as discontinuation limits long-term supply chain stability. Ensure the 5 MHz bus speed and 40 V rating align with the target application requirements.

Part Context

The PCU9655 series belongs to NXP's LED driver portfolio designed for high-density lighting applications. The PW suffix indicates the TSSOP28 surface-mount package. This specific variant integrates multiple channels into a single compact solution, reducing board space compared to discrete driver implementations.

Replacement Considerations

PCU9655PW,518 is discontinued. Check NXP documentation for direct pin-compatible or functionally equivalent replacements suitable for existing designs.
