Replacement verdict
Compatible functional replacement candidate
The AD8367ARUZ-RL7 and AD8367ARUZ are functionally identical VGA/AGC amplifiers from Analog Devices, differing only in packaging format (tape-and-reel versus tube). Both share the same die, electrical specifications, and TSSOP-14 footprint, making them interchangeable for design and qualification purposes. The RL7 variant is the preferred choice for high-volume automated assembly, while the standard AD8367ARUZ suits prototyping and low-volume runs.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between AD8367ARUZ-RL7 and AD8367ARUZ?
The AD8367ARUZ and AD8367ARUZ-RL7 are the same AD8367 device in the same 14-lead TSSOP package; the "-RL7" suffix denotes a tape-and-reel packaging option (7-inch reel, 750 pieces per reel), while AD8367ARUZ is the standard tube/rail packaging. Electrical performance and die are identical.
Are AD8367ARUZ-RL7 and AD8367ARUZ electrically and functionally interchangeable?
Yes. Both part numbers refer to the same AD8367 500 MHz, 45 dB linear-in-dB variable gain amplifier (VGA) in a 14-lead TSSOP, so they are electrically and functionally interchangeable; only the shipping packaging differs.
What are the key specifications of the AD8367?
The AD8367 is a 500 MHz, 45 dB linear-in-dB variable gain amplifier with a gain range of -2.5 dB to +42.5 dB, an output-referred 1 dB compression point of approximately 9.5 dBm at 70 MHz, and a noise figure of about 7.5 dB at maximum gain. It operates from a single 5 V supply and is specified over the -40°C to +85°C temperature range.
What package do AD8367ARUZ and AD8367ARUZ-RL7 use?
Both parts are supplied in a 14-lead TSSOP (RU-14) package, with an exposed paddle for thermal and ground connection. The package and pinout are identical between the two orderable part numbers.
Why would a design choose AD8367ARUZ-RL7 instead of AD8367ARUZ?
AD8367ARUZ-RL7 is supplied on a 7-inch tape-and-reel (750 pieces per reel), which suits automated high-volume SMT assembly lines. AD8367ARUZ in tubes/rails is typically preferred for low-volume prototyping or manual handling.
Can AD8367ARUZ and AD8367ARUZ-RL7 be mixed on the same PCB assembly?
Yes. Because both orderable part numbers share the same die, package, and pinout, they can be used interchangeably on the same PCB assembly without any layout or rework changes; only reel/tube handling differs.
What supply voltage and control interface does the AD8367 require?
The AD8367 operates from a single 5 V supply and provides a linear-in-dB gain control via an analog gain voltage (VGAIN) pin, with gain slope of 20 mV/dB and a gain range of 45 dB. It also includes an on-chip square-law detector output for RSSI/AGC applications.
Are AD8367ARUZ and AD8367ARUZ-RL7 RoHS compliant?
Yes. The "Z" suffix in both part numbers indicates RoHS-compliant, lead-free (Pb-free) construction per Analog Devices ordering nomenclature, and both are rated for the industrial temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.
