Frequently asked questions
Is L4931CZ33-AP obsolete or active?
It is active — current lifecycle stage, no discontinuation notice. ROHS3 compliant. No LTB risk for new designs.
L4931CZ33-AP vs L4931CZ33 — what is the difference?
The -AP suffix indicates Tape & Box (TB) or Cut Tape (CT) packaging for automated handling, versus the standard bulk tube of the base L4931CZ33. The silicon and electrical specs are identical.
Is L4931CZ33-AP pin compatible with LM78L33?
Both are 3-terminal TO-92 regulators with the same pinout (input, ground, output), so they are physically interchangeable on the same footprint. However, the LM78L33 has a higher typical dropout (around 1.7 V) and lower PSRR — verify the input headroom and ripple rejection requirements before substituting.
