• Current - Average Rectified (Io): 10 A
• Voltage - Forward (Vf) (Max) @ If: 1 V @ 10 A
• Speed: Standard Recovery >500ns, > 200mA (Io)
• Current - Reverse Leakage @ Vr: 10 µA @ 50 V
• Capacitance @ Vr, F: 150 pF @ 4V, 1MHz

Mechanical Parameters (Identical):

• Mounting Type: Through Hole
• Package / Case: R-6, Axial

Technology Classification:

• Both parts employ Standard rectifier diode technology

The 10A01-TP is manufactured by Micro Commercial Co and is available in Cut Tape (CT) packaging, providing an alternative source for the same electrical and mechanical specification.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

10A01-TP (Micro Commercial Co) - Primary Substitute:

The 10A01-TP is electrically and mechanically equivalent to the 10A01-T across all critical parameters. Both parts are ROHS3 Compliant and classified under the same HTSUS code (8541.10.0080). The 10A01-TP is designated as "Not For New Designs" by the manufacturer, indicating it remains available for replacement and legacy applications.

Operating Temperature Consideration:

The 10A01-TP specifies an operating temperature range of -55°C to 150°C, compared to the 10A01-T range of -65°C to 150°C. This represents a 10°C reduction in the lower temperature limit. Applications requiring operation below -55°C junction temperature must evaluate this specification difference against circuit requirements.

Compliance Status:

The 10A01-TP is REACH Unaffected, whereas the 10A01-T is REACH Affected. Both parts carry ECCN classification EAR99. Component selection should account for supply chain and regulatory requirements specific to the end application.

Packaging Availability:

The 10A01-TP is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) packaging, differing from the 10A01-T packaging specification. This affects handling, storage, and assembly processes but does not alter electrical or mechanical compatibility.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 10A01-TP directly replace the 10A01-T in existing designs?

A: The 10A01-TP is electrically and mechanically equivalent to the 10A01-T. All critical electrical parameters—reverse voltage, forward current, forward voltage drop, recovery speed, reverse leakage current, and junction capacitance—are identical. Both parts use the R-6 axial through-hole package. Direct substitution is supported from an electrical and mechanical standpoint.

Q: What is the significance of the operating temperature range difference?

A: The 10A01-T operates from -65°C to 150°C junction temperature, while the 10A01-TP operates from -55°C to 150°C. The 10A01-TP has a 10°C higher minimum temperature limit. Applications requiring operation at temperatures below -55°C must retain the 10A01-T or identify an alternative part with equivalent low-temperature performance.

Q: Why is the 10A01-TP marked "Not For New Designs"?

A: This designation indicates the part is available for replacement and legacy applications but is not recommended for new product development. For new designs, consultation with the manufacturer regarding current-generation alternatives is appropriate.

Q: Does the Cut Tape (CT) packaging of the 10A01-TP affect circuit performance?

A: Packaging format does not affect electrical or mechanical performance. Cut Tape packaging is a supply and assembly consideration. The component itself—the R-6 axial diode—remains identical in form, fit, and function.

Q: Are there compliance differences between the two parts?

A: Both parts are ROHS3 Compliant. The 10A01-T is REACH Affected, while the 10A01-TP is REACH Unaffected. Applications subject to REACH regulations should verify compliance requirements with their supply chain and regulatory teams.

Q: What is the base product number, and how does it relate to these parts?

A: The base product number is 10A01. Both the 10A01-T and 10A01-TP are variants of this base product, differentiated by manufacturer and packaging. The base number identifies the core electrical and mechanical specification.
