Replacement verdict
Compatible functional replacement candidate
The AD8367ARU and AD8367ARU-REEL7 are the same AD8367 variable gain amplifier die in an identical 20-lead TSSOP package, differing only in shipping format (tube vs. tape-and-reel). They are functionally interchangeable for design, prototyping, and production use, with the reel variant suited to automated SMT assembly lines.

Key electrical and mechanical differences between the two devices
| Parameter | AD8367ARU | AD8367ARU-REEL7 | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|---|
| Function | Variable gain amplifier (VGA) with AGC detector | Variable gain amplifier (VGA) with AGC detector | Confirms both parts provide the same core signal-chain function, so they are functionally interchangeable. |
| Frequency Range | LF to 500 MHz | LF to 500 MHz | The operating bandwidth must cover the target application's signal frequencies for the part to be usable. |
| Gain Range | -2.5 dB to +42.5 dB | -2.5 dB to +42.5 dB | Defines the available dynamic gain span, which determines the AGC loop's ability to compensate signal level variation. |
| Supply Voltage | 2.7 V to 5.5 V | 2.7 V to 5.5 V | Must match the system power rail; identical range means the same supply design works for either part. |
| Package / Case | 14-Lead TSSOP | 14-Lead TSSOP | Same footprint and pinout allow drop-in replacement on an existing PCB without layout changes. |
| Packaging / Delivery Form | Tube | Tape & Reel (7-inch reel) | Delivery form affects manufacturing handling: tape-and-reel suits automated pick-and-place assembly, while tubes suit manual or low-volume builds. |
| Operating Temperature Range | -40 °C to +85 °C | -40 °C to +85 °C | Ensures the device meets the environmental requirements of the target application in both variants. |
| Mounting Type | Surface Mount | Surface Mount | Confirms both parts are compatible with the same SMT assembly process and board design. |

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between AD8367ARU and AD8367ARU-REEL7?
The AD8367ARU and AD8367ARU-REEL7 are the same AD8367 device in the same 20-lead TSSOP package. The suffix difference refers to packaging format: AD8367ARU is the standard tube packaging, while AD8367ARU-REEL7 denotes tape-and-reel packaging with a 7-inch reel. Electrical performance and die are identical.
Are AD8367ARU and AD8367ARU-REEL7 electrically and functionally identical?
Yes. Both part numbers refer to the same AD8367 variable gain amplifier die in a 20-lead TSSOP package. The only difference is the shipping packaging (tube vs. 7-inch tape-and-reel), so electrical specifications, pinout, and functional behavior are the same.
What are the key specifications of the AD8367?
The AD8367 is an analog-controlled variable gain amplifier (VGA) operating from DC to 500 MHz. It provides a gain range of -2.5 dB to +42.5 dB with a linear-in-dB gain control slope of 20 mV/dB, an OIP3 of approximately 20 dBm at 70 MHz, and operates from a single 5 V supply. It is housed in a 20-lead TSSOP package.
Can AD8367ARU and AD8367ARU-REEL7 be used interchangeably in a design?
Yes. Because both part numbers share the same die, package, pinout, and electrical specifications, they are interchangeable in a design. The choice between them depends only on the assembly/production packaging preference (tube for prototyping or low volume, tape-and-reel for automated SMT production).
Which part number should be ordered for automated pick-and-place assembly?
AD8367ARU-REEL7 should be selected for automated surface-mount assembly, as it is supplied in 7-inch tape-and-reel format compatible with pick-and-place equipment. AD8367ARU in tube packaging is more suitable for manual handling, prototyping, or low-volume builds.
Do AD8367ARU and AD8367ARU-REEL7 differ in moisture sensitivity level or handling requirements?
No. Both part numbers use the same 20-lead TSSOP package and therefore share the same moisture sensitivity level and handling requirements as specified in the Analog Devices datasheet and packaging information. Packaging format does not change the MSL classification of the device.
What is the operating temperature range for the AD8367ARU and AD8367ARU-REEL7?
Both part numbers are specified over the industrial temperature range of -40°C to +85°C, consistent with the AD8367 datasheet. The packaging variant does not affect the rated operating temperature range.
