Feature Summary

• Functions as a radio frequency filter for signal bandwidth control.

Applications

• Radio frequency signal processing

Procurement Notes

Verify the manufacturer lineage, as National Semiconductor's semiconductor assets were acquired by Texas Instruments. Confirm that the specific PT86C618A1-B designation remains valid within current inventory systems or if it has been superseded by updated part numbers from the acquiring entity. Ensure compatibility with existing circuit designs before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component specifically for its role as an RF filter within the former Pico Power portfolio. Due to the corporate acquisition history, confirm technical specifications against current datasheets from the successor manufacturer to ensure performance parameters meet design requirements.

Part Context

National Semiconductor was an American semiconductor manufacturer specializing in analog devices. Its power products division, including Pico Power, was acquired by Texas Instruments. The PT86C618A1-B belongs to this historical product range, now managed under TI's catalog structure.

Replacement Considerations

Consult Texas Instruments documentation for direct equivalents or updated part numbers replacing the former National Semiconductor Pico Power lineup. Verify pinout and electrical characteristics against current TI offerings.
