FFF CompatibilityThe part offers an identical 44-LQFP package with a 100% match on all pin assignments including NC pins.Matches the 10x10mm physical body dimensions, 0.8mm pin pitch, and SMD mounting style.Identical 80C51 core executing at up to 60MHz, identical memory size, and 2.7V to 5.5V supply voltage range.The four 'NIC' (Not Internally Connected) pins (6, 17, 28, 39) on the original AT89C51RD2 are mapped to Port 4 general-purpose I/O lines (P4.1, P4.3, P4.0, P4.2) on this LP version.Identical physical 44-LQFP 10x10mm package dimensions and pin pitch.Offers equal or superior electrical ratings, equivalent 64KB Flash, and an advanced single-cycle 8051 core architecture.
AI Summary

AT89C51RD2-RLTUM by Microchip Technology: 80C51 89C Microcontroller IC 8-Bit 60MHz 64KB (64K x 8) FLASH 44-VQFP (10x10).

This is the official active direct drop-in replacement recommended by Microchip. It transitions the obsolete silicon to an active, identical-specification revision in the same 44-LQFP footprint, eliminating the need for any hardware or software redesign.

  • Official manufacturer-recommended direct drop-in replacement
  • Identical core architecture, 64KB Flash, and 2KB RAM specifications
  • Fully active lifecycle status providing long-term availability

This is an upgraded, active sibling from Microchip's low-power 89LP single-cycle series. It offers substantially improved execution throughput and modernized peripherals, though care must be taken with the four NC pins which are now active Port 4 I/Os.

  • Upgraded single-cycle 8051 core delivering up to 20 MIPS at 20MHz clock speed
  • Expanded 2.25KB RAM compared to the original 2KB RAM
  • Added on-chip peripherals including an internal oscillator, 10-bit ADC, and TWI/I2C capability
  • Requires board layout verification to ensure previous 'NIC' pins (6, 17, 28, 39) were not tied to GND or VCC on the PCB.
  • Software timing routines may require tuning due to the upgraded single-cycle clock instruction cycle structure.

You searched one part. Parter watches your whole BOM.

  1. All your BOM, at once

    Parter maps every line to live stock, lead time, lifecycle and compliance data across the entire market — not part by part.

  2. Hear about problems before they hit production

    Allocation, EOL and last-time-buy notices surface the moment they appear, not when your buyer's PO bounces.

  3. Qualified replacements in minutes, not days

    Every at-risk line gets form-fit-function matches like the ones above — deltas flagged, evidence attached. Review, push to your BOM, and Parter starts watching the new part too.

Frequently asked questions

Yes. The Microchip Technology AT89C51RD2-RLTUM is marked obsolete, so the manufacturer has discontinued it and any remaining supply is limited to distributor stock. The qualified second sources on this page are active parts you can design in today.
