Device identity and key parametrics
The EQCO125X40C1T-I/8EX is a full-duplex driver from Microchip Technology, rated for 12.5 Gbps data rate with a 1/1 driver/receiver configuration. The 1.25 V supply rail and 16-QFN (4x4 mm) package target high-speed serial links in automotive and industrial environments. AEC-Q100 qualification and an industrial temperature range of -40°C to 85°C suit this part for under-hood or chassis-mounted modules where thermal cycling and reliability screening are non-negotiable.
Sourcing and lifecycle status
The part is available in Tape & Reel (TR) or Cut Tape (CT) packaging. For volume BOM commitments, the part is sourced to order against your quantity. Confirm lead time and current pricing at quote time through an RFQ — no stock-holding claim is made here.
Package and mounting considerations
The 16-VQFN Exposed Pad requires a thermal pad on the PCB for adequate heat dissipation. The 4x4 mm footprint with 0.50 mm pitch demands careful solder-paste stencil design to avoid bridging. Surface-mount assembly is standard.
