Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the APD160VHTR-E1 is determined by strict equivalence across the following electrical parameters:

Primary Substitution Criteria:

• Voltage - DC Reverse (Vr) (Max): 60 V minimum
• Current - Average Rectified (Io): 1 A or greater
• Technology: Schottky rectifier
• Speed: Fast Recovery ≤ 500ns, > 200mA (Io)
• Current - Reverse Leakage @ Vr: 500 µA @ 60 V or lower

Secondary Compliance Criteria:

• RoHS3 Compliance
• Operating Temperature Range: -65°C to 125°C or broader

The SR006HA0G from Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation qualifies as a substitute part. While the SR006HA0G is rated for 500 mA average rectified current (lower than the 1 A rating of the APD160VHTR-E1), it meets all voltage, leakage, and speed specifications. The SR006HA0G is an active product with automotive-grade qualification (AEC-Q101) and extended operating temperature range (-55°C to 150°C).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The SR006HA0G is suitable as a substitute for the obsolete APD160VHTR-E1 based on the following engineering factors:

Compliance and Certification:

• Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance, satisfying environmental regulatory requirements
• SR006HA0G carries AEC-Q101 automotive qualification, providing additional reliability assurance for demanding applications

Product Availability:

• APD160VHTR-E1 is obsolete with no active manufacturing
• SR006HA0G is an active product with current inventory availability (992 pieces in stock)

Electrical Equivalence:

• Reverse voltage rating is identical at 60 V
• Reverse leakage current is identical at 500 µA @ 60 V
• Fast recovery speed specification is identical
• Forward voltage characteristics are comparable across their respective rated currents

Temperature Performance:

• SR006HA0G operating range (-55°C to 150°C) encompasses and exceeds the APD160VHTR-E1 range (-65°C to 125°C)

Current Rating Consideration:

• SR006HA0G is rated for 500 mA average rectified current versus 1 A for APD160VHTR-E1
• Circuit designs operating at or below 500 mA can directly substitute the SR006HA0G
• Designs requiring full 1 A capacity must evaluate alternative parts from the SR006HA0G cross-reference list: STPS2L60, SB160-E3/54, MBR160G, SB160-T, MBR160RLG

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the SR006HA0G directly replace the APD160VHTR-E1 in all applications?

A: The SR006HA0G is electrically equivalent for voltage, leakage, and speed specifications. However, the current rating difference (500 mA versus 1 A) requires circuit evaluation. Applications operating at 500 mA or below can use the SR006HA0G directly. Applications requiring 1 A capacity must select from alternative parts with matching current ratings.

Q: What is the significance of the DO-204AL (DO-41) package for the SR006HA0G?

A: The DO-204AL, also designated DO-41, is a through-hole axial package format. This package type is mechanically and electrically compatible with through-hole PCB designs. The APD160VHTR-E1 package specification was not provided in the original documentation, so package compatibility must be verified against the original design requirements.

Q: Are there performance differences in forward voltage between these parts?

A: The APD160VHTR-E1 specifies 680 mV maximum forward voltage at 1 A, while the SR006HA0G specifies 700 mV maximum at 500 mA. These measurements are taken at different current levels. At equivalent current densities, forward voltage characteristics are comparable for Schottky diodes of identical voltage rating and technology.

Q: Does the SR006HA0G automotive qualification (AEC-Q101) affect its use in non-automotive applications?

A: AEC-Q101 qualification indicates the part meets automotive reliability and testing standards. This certification does not restrict use in non-automotive applications; it provides additional assurance of quality and reliability applicable across all application domains.

Q: What should be considered if the circuit requires the full 1 A rating of the APD160VHTR-E1?

A: The SR006HA0G substitute list includes parts with higher current ratings: STPS2L60, SB160-E3/54, MBR160G, SB160-T, and MBR160RLG. These alternatives maintain the 60 V voltage rating and fast recovery characteristics while supporting 1 A or greater current capacity. Selection among these alternatives requires evaluation of additional parameters not provided in this reference.

Q: Is the extended temperature range of the SR006HA0G (-55°C to 150°C) a concern for designs specified for -65°C to 125°C?

A: The SR006HA0G minimum operating temperature of -55°C is higher than the APD160VHTR-E1 specification of -65°C. Designs requiring operation below -55°C must select alternative parts that meet the full -65°C minimum requirement. For designs operating within -55°C to 125°C, the SR006HA0G meets all temperature specifications.
