Best Alternatives to AS4950

Package: SOP8-PPASSEMSTARControllersSupply Voltage: 8V ~ 40VOutput Current (Peak): 3.5AOutput Current (Continuous): 2ARDS(on): 600mΩControl Interface: PWM

AS4950 is an 8V-40V brushed DC motor driver in SOP8-PP. Alternatives need careful pinout, footprint, and current review.

AI replacement insight

Electrical riskmedium

BDR6170T matches 40V but lacks cont-current data.

Package riskhigh

Only PN7706 lists SOP8-PP, but it is lower rated.

Firmware risklow

PWM control is common where listed.

Sourcing riskmedium

Lifecycle data is limited.

Can it be replaced directly?

No pin-compatible AS4950 replacement is proven from the provided data.

Best replacement path

BDR6170T is the best functional candidate, pending pinout, footprint, and continuous-current checks.

Main risk

Pinout and package compatibility are not verified.
