Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the 1SMB6.0CA TR13 PBFREE are qualified based on the following critical parameters:

• Voltage - Reverse Standoff: 6V (exact match required)
• Voltage - Clamping (Max) @ Ipp: 10.3V or 10.2V (within acceptable tolerance)
• Current - Peak Pulse (10/1000µs): 58.3A to 61A (within acceptable tolerance)
• Power - Peak Pulse: 600W (exact match)
• Package / Case: DO-214AA, SMB (exact match required)
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount (exact match required)
• Type: Zener, Bidirectional (exact match required)
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant (compliance requirement)
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited) (exact match required)

All identified substitute parts maintain electrical equivalence within specified tolerances and are functionally interchangeable in the same circuit application.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All substitute parts listed are active in production status and RoHS3 compliant, meeting regulatory requirements for modern electronics manufacturing. Selection among these equivalents should be based on:

Packaging Format: The 1SMB6.0CA TR13 PBFREE is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format. Direct equivalents in the same packaging format include SMBJ6.0CA-13-F, SMBJ6.0CD-M3/H, SMBJ6.0CD-M3/I, and SMBJ6V0CA. Alternative packaging in Cut Tape (CT) & Digi-Reel® format includes SMBJ6.0CA and SMBJ6.0CA-E3/52, suitable for applications where reel format is not required.

Operating Temperature Range: The original part operates from -65°C to 150°C. Substitute parts from EVVO Semi maintain this full range. Parts from Diodes Incorporated, Vishay, STMicroelectronics, and Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation operate from -55°C to 150°C, which is acceptable for most general-purpose applications but may require verification if the design requires operation below -55°C.

Electrical Tolerance: SMBJ6.0CA-TR from STMicroelectronics exhibits a peak pulse current of 61A versus the original 58.3A, representing a 4.6% increase within acceptable tolerance for TVS diode applications. SMBJ6.0CD-M3/H and SMBJ6.0CD-M3/I from Vishay feature a clamping voltage of 10.2V versus 10.3V, a 0.97% reduction within acceptable tolerance.

Inventory Availability: SMBJ6.0CA from EVVO Semi offers the highest inventory level at 95,300 pieces. SMBJ6.0CA-E3/52 from Vishay provides 29,847 pieces, and SMBJ6.0CD-M3/H from Vishay provides 29,350 pieces.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can I substitute SMBJ6.0CA-TR from STMicroelectronics for the original 1SMB6.0CA TR13 PBFREE?

A: Yes. SMBJ6.0CA-TR is electrically equivalent with a peak pulse current of 61A (versus 58.3A) and maintains the same 6V reverse standoff voltage, 10.3V clamping voltage, and 600W peak pulse power. The 4.6% increase in peak pulse current is within acceptable tolerance for TVS diode substitution. Operating temperature range is -55°C to 150°C.

Q: What is the difference between SMBJ6.0CA and SMBJ6.0CD-M3/I?

A: Both are 6V TVS diodes in DO-214AA (SMB) package with 600W peak pulse power. SMBJ6.0CA maintains a 10.3V clamping voltage with 58.3A peak pulse current. SMBJ6.0CD-M3/I features a 10.2V clamping voltage with 58.9A peak pulse current. The clamping voltage difference is 0.97%, making them functionally equivalent for general-purpose protection applications.

Q: Does packaging format affect electrical performance?

A: No. Tape & Reel (TR) and Cut Tape (CT) & Digi-Reel® packaging formats do not affect electrical performance. Selection should be based on assembly equipment compatibility and procurement requirements. All listed parts maintain identical electrical specifications regardless of packaging format.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. All substitute parts listed are RoHS3 compliant and meet current regulatory requirements for lead-free manufacturing and hazardous substance restrictions.

Q: Can I use SMBJ6V0CA if my circuit requires operation below -55°C?

A: SMBJ6V0CA operates from -55°C to 150°C. If your application requires operation below -55°C, the original 1SMB6.0CA TR13 PBFREE from Central Semiconductor Corp, which operates from -65°C to 150°C, or SMBJ6.0CA from EVVO Semi with the same temperature range, should be used.

Q: What is the moisture sensitivity level for all these parts?

A: All parts, including the original 1SMB6.0CA TR13 PBFREE and all substitutes, have Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions during storage and handling.
