ETA8120S2G
ETA
Needs validationmedium risk
Strong parametric match on voltage, current, and frequency in the same SOT23-6 package.
Best Alternatives to TMI3252
TMI3252 is a 2A, 18V synchronous buck converter in a SOT23-6 package. Finding a replacement involves matching input voltage, output current, switching frequency, and pinout.
AI replacement insight
Package risklow
All viable candidates are in the same SOT23-6 package.
Electrical riskmedium
Switching frequency and temperature range vary between candidates.
Firmware risklow
These are analog ICs with no firmware.
Can it be replaced directly?
Direct replacement for TMI3252 should use only Datasheet verified or Strong match candidates; many approved options still require engineering review.
Best replacement path
ETA8120S2G appears to be the strongest candidate, matching key electricals and package, but requires pinout and temperature verification.
Main risk
The main risks are pinout incompatibility and differences in switching frequency, which impacts external component values and EMI performance.
