Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the BAS16L-G3-08 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical Parameters (Must Match Exactly):

• Voltage - DC Reverse (Vr) (Max): 100 V
• Current - Average Rectified (Io): 250 mA
• Voltage - Forward (Vf) (Max) @ If: 1.25 V @ 150 mA
• Reverse Recovery Time (trr): 4 ns
• Current - Reverse Leakage @ Vr: 1 µA @ 100 V
• Capacitance @ Vr, F: 0.36 pF @ 0 V, 1 MHz

Mechanical Parameters (Must Match Exactly):

• Package / Case: 0402 (1006 Metric)
• Supplier Device Package: DFN1006-2A
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount

Compliance Parameters (Must Match or Exceed):

• Operating Temperature - Junction: -55°C to 150°C
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL): 1 (Unlimited)

Substitute parts identified maintain identical electrical performance and mechanical compatibility while differing only in packaging format (tape & reel versus cut tape) or supplier configuration. All substitute parts retain Active product status and full compliance certifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

BAS16L-G3-08 (Primary Part):

• Tape & Reel packaging format for high-volume automated assembly
• Standard grade classification
• Active product status with full RoHS3 compliance
• Suitable for general-purpose fast recovery diode applications requiring 100 V, 250 mA performance

BAS16L-HG3-08 (Substitute Part):

• Cut Tape and Digi-Reel® packaging formats for flexible procurement and lower-volume requirements
• Automotive grade with AEC-Q101 qualification, providing enhanced reliability for automotive applications
• Active product status with identical electrical and mechanical specifications
• Identical RoHS3 compliance and REACH status
• Functionally interchangeable in all circuit applications where BAS16L-G3-08 is specified

Both parts maintain identical electrical performance, mechanical compatibility, and compliance certifications. Selection between these parts is determined by packaging requirements and application grade specifications rather than electrical performance differences.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can BAS16L-HG3-08 be used as a direct replacement for BAS16L-G3-08?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical with matching voltage ratings (100 V), current ratings (250 mA), forward voltage (1.25 V @ 150 mA), and reverse recovery time (4 ns). The primary difference is packaging format (Cut Tape & Digi-Reel® versus Tape & Reel) and grade classification (Automotive with AEC-Q101 versus Standard).

Q: What is the difference between the packaging formats?

A: BAS16L-G3-08 is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format, optimized for high-volume automated pick-and-place assembly. BAS16L-HG3-08 is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) and Digi-Reel® formats, providing flexibility for lower-volume orders and manual assembly processes. Both use identical DFN1006-2A surface mount packages.

Q: Does the Automotive grade of BAS16L-HG3-08 affect circuit performance?

A: No. The Automotive grade and AEC-Q101 qualification of BAS16L-HG3-08 indicate enhanced manufacturing and testing standards for automotive applications. Electrical and mechanical performance parameters remain identical to the standard grade BAS16L-G3-08.

Q: Are both parts RoHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. Both BAS16L-G3-08 and BAS16L-HG3-08 are ROHS3 compliant with unlimited moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1) and REACH Unaffected status.

Q: What is the operating temperature range for both parts?

A: Both parts operate across a junction temperature range of -55°C to 150°C, providing identical thermal performance specifications.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably in high-speed switching applications?

A: Yes. Both parts feature identical fast recovery characteristics with 4 ns reverse recovery time and fast recovery speed classification (≤ 500 ns, > 200 mA), making them functionally equivalent for high-speed switching circuit requirements.

Q: What inventory considerations apply to these substitute parts?

A: BAS16L-G3-08 has 10,828 pieces in stock (Tape & Reel format). BAS16L-HG3-08 has 6,467 pieces in stock (Cut Tape & Digi-Reel® format). Selection should account for packaging format requirements and available inventory levels.
