CAT5171TBI Overview
What changes between part numbers, and what to check before you lock the BOM — Microcontrollers.
Key Features
- Lifecycle mix: ActiveConfirm lifecycle on the exact MPN, not just the base number prefix.
- 2 distinct suffix patternsExamples: 00GT3, 50GT3. Decode suffix meaning in the ordering notes under the variant table.
Target Applications
- Microcontrollers — design-in and field replacement
- BOM scrub where only the base prefix is known but suffix is TBD
- Second-source checks when the original MPN is constrained
Ordering Variants
Compare 2 CAT5171TBI part numbers by package, electrical parameters, lifecycle, and availability. Use RFQ for stock and lead-time confirmation.
| Part Number | Description | Manufacturer | Lifecycle | RoHS | Availability | Action |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| CAT5171TBI-00GT3 | 256-Tap Digital Potentiometer, I2C, SOT-23-8, 100kR | onsemi | Active | Compliant | In Stock | |
| CAT5171TBI-50GT3 | Digital Potentiometer 50kΩ 256POS Linear I2C SOT-23-8 | onsemi | Active | Compliant | In Stock |

How to Choose the Right CAT5171TBI Microcontrollers
Match the footprint first
Pull the exact package drawing for your MPN — base-number swaps fail most often at the footprint, not the schematic.
Electrical headroom
Compare voltage and current columns in the variant table. For CAT5171TBI, a suffix with lower voltage or current rating will not survive the same circuit without recalculation.
Temp grade letter matters
Commercial (0–70 °C) and industrial (−40–85 °C+) suffixes look similar in the prefix — confirm ambient + self-heating, not just the first page of the datasheet.
Copy the full MPN
Do not BOM only "CAT5171TBI" — include the full suffix (e.g. 00GT3, 50GT3). RFQ with reel/tube preference and required date code.
