RF Misc ICS And Modules Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix designation, as the -E1 variant is listed as obsolete while the -E1-A version indicates lead-free compliance. Confirm current availability through authorized distributors, as stock levels may vary significantly between regions and suppliers. Ensure the ordering part number matches the required package type and RoHS status for your manufacturing line.

RF Misc ICS And Modules Selection Notes

Select this component when a divide-by-2 prescaler is required for frequencies up to 3 GHz. The 8-SSOP package suits space-constrained surface mount designs. Ensure the circuit design accommodates the minimum 4.5 V supply requirement. Consider the obsolete status of the base model if long-term production stability is a primary concern.

RF Misc ICS And Modules Part Context

This device belongs to the UPB series of silicon RF integrated circuits designed for wireless and RF applications. It serves as a critical frequency division stage in receiver front-ends. The family utilizes specialized bipolar processes to achieve high-speed switching characteristics necessary for UHF and microwave signal processing tasks.

RF Misc ICS And Modules Replacement Considerations

The base model UPB1508GV is listed as obsolete. The UPB1508GV-E1-A is the available lead-free equivalent. Verify pinout compatibility before substitution.
