Substitute Part Grouping Explanation
Substitute parts are classified into three categories based on electrical and mechanical compatibility with the 2PD602ARL,235:
Parametric Equivalents maintain identical electrical specifications and package designation. The 2PD602ARL,215 from Nexperia USA Inc. is a parametric equivalent with the same TO-236AB package, 50 V breakdown voltage, 500 mA collector current, 250 mW power rating, and 160 MHz transition frequency. This variant differs only in tape reel configuration.
Direct Manufacturer Substitutes provide equivalent electrical performance within the specified parameter range while maintaining surface mount compatibility. The MSD602-RT1G and SMSD602-RT1G from onsemi deliver 50 V breakdown voltage, 500 mA collector current, and equivalent saturation characteristics in SC-59 package format. These parts operate within the same thermal and electrical envelope, with power dissipation rated at 200 mW.
Similar Performance Alternatives meet the core electrical requirements of 50 V breakdown voltage and 500 mA collector current but operate with reduced voltage ratings or modified electrical characteristics. The SBCX19LT1G from onsemi operates at 45 V breakdown voltage with 300 mW power rating and automotive AEC-Q101 qualification. The BC817 series variants (BC817-16LT1G, BC817-25LT1G, BC817-25LT3G, BC817-16 RFG, BC817-25 RFG) from onsemi and Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation operate at 45 V breakdown voltage with 300 mW power rating and 100 MHz transition frequency. The 2SD1484KT146Q from Rohm Semiconductor maintains 50 V breakdown voltage and 500 mA collector current with enhanced 250 MHz transition frequency and improved saturation characteristics.
Substitution eligibility is determined by matching the following critical parameters: NPN transistor type, minimum 45 V collector-emitter breakdown voltage, 500 mA collector current capability, surface mount package compatibility (TO-236-3, SC-59, SOT-23-3), and RoHS3 compliance.

Engineering Selection Recommendations
Parametric Equivalent Selection: The 2PD602ARL,215 is a direct parametric equivalent to the 2PD602ARL,235. Both parts are manufactured by Nexperia USA Inc., maintain identical electrical specifications, and carry AEC-Q101 automotive qualification. Selection between these variants is determined by tape reel configuration requirements and supply availability.
Direct Manufacturer Substitutes: The MSD602-RT1G and SMSD602-RT1G from onsemi provide equivalent electrical performance at 50 V breakdown voltage and 500 mA collector current. These parts are suitable for applications where the 250 mW power rating of the original part is not a limiting constraint. Both devices maintain RoHS3 compliance and surface mount compatibility. The SMSD602-RT1G offers higher inventory availability (20,100 units) compared to MSD602-RT1G (8,300 units).
Automotive-Qualified Alternatives: The SBCX19LT1G from onsemi maintains AEC-Q101 automotive qualification with 45 V breakdown voltage, 500 mA collector current, and 300 mW power rating. This part is suitable for applications where the 50 V rating is not required and the higher power dissipation capability is beneficial.
General-Purpose Alternatives: The BC817 series variants (BC817-16LT1G, BC817-25LT1G, BC817-25LT3G) from onsemi and BC817 variants from Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation operate at 45 V breakdown voltage with 100 MHz transition frequency. These parts lack AEC-Q101 qualification and are suitable for non-automotive applications. The BC817-25 variants provide higher DC current gain (160 minimum) compared to BC817-16 variants (100 minimum).
Enhanced Performance Alternative: The 2SD1484KT146Q from Rohm Semiconductor maintains 50 V breakdown voltage and 500 mA collector current with enhanced 250 MHz transition frequency and improved saturation characteristics (400 mV @ 15mA, 150mA). This part lacks automotive qualification and is suitable for high-frequency applications.
