Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the AP130-18YG-13 are identified based on strict electrical and mechanical parameter equivalence. The critical parameters determining substitution eligibility are:

• Fixed output voltage of 1.8V
• Output current rating of 300mA
• Maximum input voltage of 5.5V
• Dropout voltage specification of 0.5V @ 300mA
• Quiescent current of 100 µA
• PSRR of 58dB (100Hz)
• Surface Mount packaging in TO-243AA case
• Identical protection features (Over Current, Over Temperature, Short Circuit)
• Operating temperature range of -40°C ~ 85°C
• Active product status
• ROHS3 compliance

The AP130-18YRG-13 meets all these criteria and is classified as a parametric equivalent. The difference between AP130-18YG-13 and AP130-18YRG-13 lies in the supplier device package designation (SOT-89-3 versus SOT-89R-3), which represents a packaging variant of the same TO-243AA case. Both variants maintain identical electrical specifications and are mechanically compatible.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both AP130-18YG-13 and AP130-18YRG-13 are Active products from Diodes Incorporated with full ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status. Selection between these parts is based on availability and packaging variant requirements. The AP130-18YG-13 (SOT-89-3) and AP130-18YRG-13 (SOT-89R-3) are electrically and mechanically interchangeable for all specified applications. Component selection should prioritize inventory availability and lead time considerations, as both parts deliver identical electrical performance and thermal characteristics across the operating temperature range of -40°C to 85°C.
