AI Summary

PCA9546APW,112 by NXP: Translating Switch Interface 16-TSSOP.

This alternative is the exact same silicon and package from NXP as the queried part, but is shipped in tape and reel packaging instead of tubes. Since the original tube-packaged part is obsolete, this serves as an absolute drop-in replacement with zero design modifications required.

  • Same active silicon and manufacturer (NXP) as the original, ensuring complete parameter matching.
  • Identical electrical specifications including 2.3V to 5.5V supply voltage range.
  • Drop-in physical and pinout compatibility in the 16-TSSOP package.
  • Shipped in Tape & Reel packaging rather than tube packaging.

Texas Instruments' PCA9546APWR is a direct second-source industry equivalent in the same TSSOP-16 package. It matches the original's 2.3V to 5.5V supply voltage, I2C logic level behavior, and pin mapping perfectly.

  • Active and widely available direct equivalent from Texas Instruments.
  • Identical 16-TSSOP footprint and pinout configuration.
  • Fully equivalent supply voltage range (2.3V to 5.5V) and 400 kHz I2C speed.

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 NXP PCA9546APW,112 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.
