Is there a pin-compatible replacement for TPS62162DSGR?

No direct pin-for-pin replacement is identified. The closest alternative, TPS62160DSGR, shares the same package but requires changes to the external circuit (adding feedback resistors) as it is an adjustable, not fixed, voltage regulator.

What risks should I check before replacing TPS62162DSGR?

Key risks include: 1) Pinout differences for adjustable vs. fixed versions. 2) Input voltage range mismatch. 3) Switching frequency changes, which affect external inductor/capacitor values and EMI performance.
