Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the AP2141AS-13 is based on strict electrical and mechanical parameter matching within the Diodes Incorporated power switch product family. The primary substitute, AP2151AS-13, maintains functional equivalence through identical specifications across all critical parameters: P-Channel output type, high-side configuration, 1:1 input-output ratio, 500mA maximum output current, 2.7V to 5.5V load voltage range, 95mOhm typical on-resistance, and 8-SOIC packaging. The key differentiator is product status: AP2151AS-13 is active and available, whereas AP2141AS-13 is obsolete. Both components feature identical fault protection mechanisms (current limiting, over-temperature, reverse current, and UVLO) and non-inverting input control logic, confirming direct functional interchangeability.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

AP2151AS-13 is the direct functional equivalent for AP2141AS-13 replacement. Both components are ROHS3 compliant and maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The primary advantage of AP2151AS-13 is active product status with confirmed inventory availability (12,600 Pcs), ensuring supply chain continuity for new designs and field service applications. AP2151AS-13 carries EAR99 ECCN classification and REACH unaffected status, meeting regulatory requirements for commercial and industrial deployment. The 8-SOIC package footprint is identical, permitting direct PCB layout compatibility without redesign. Selection of AP2151AS-13 eliminates obsolescence risk associated with the AP2141AS-13 designation.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
