Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The AP7370-15W5-7 qualifies as a parametric equivalent based on the following criteria:

Matching Parameters:

• Identical output voltage specification (1.5V fixed)
• Identical maximum input voltage (18V)
• Identical output current rating (300mA)
• Identical quiescent current (2.5 µA)
• Identical operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 125°C)
• Identical package type (SC-74A, SOT-753 / SOT-25)
• Identical mounting configuration (Surface Mount)
• Identical protection feature set (Over Current, Over Temperature, Reverse Current, Short Circuit)
• Identical regulatory compliance (ROHS3, REACH Unaffected)
• Identical moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1)

Both parts share the same base product number (AP7370) and are manufactured by Diodes Incorporated with Active product status. The substitution is valid for applications requiring identical electrical and mechanical specifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the AP7370-15WR-7 and AP7370-15W5-7 are Active status components with identical electrical specifications and package configurations. Selection between these parts may be based on inventory availability or supply chain considerations. The AP7370-15W5-7 currently maintains higher inventory levels (1057 Pcs) compared to the AP7370-15WR-7 (904 Pcs). Both components meet ROHS3 compliance requirements and carry REACH Unaffected status, making them suitable for regulated applications. The identical MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited) indicates equivalent moisture handling requirements during storage and assembly.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
