BSP220,115 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The BSP220,115 is a P-Channel MOSFET manufactured by Nexperia USA Inc., rated for 200V drain-to-source voltage with 225mA continuous drain current in a surface mount SOT-223 package. This device is classified as "Not For New Designs," indicating it has been superseded in the manufacturer's product roadmap. Finding equivalent or substitute parts is necessary for applications requiring continued supply, design flexibility, or performance optimization within the specified electrical and mechanical parameters.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the BSP220,115 is determined by strict alignment of the following electrical and mechanical parameters:

Critical Matching Parameters:

• FET Type: P-Channel topology
• Drain to Source Voltage (Vdss): 200V minimum rating
• Continuous Drain Current (Id): Equal to or greater than 225mA
• Drive Voltage: 10V gate drive compatibility
• Package / Case: SOT-223 surface mount form factor
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount

Compliance Parameters:

• RoHS3 Compliance
• Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL): 1 or equivalent
• REACH Status: REACH Unaffected

The ZVP2120GTA from Diodes Incorporated meets the core electrical requirements (200V Vdss, P-Channel topology, SOT-223 package) and maintains full regulatory compliance. Substitution is valid where the application tolerates the specified parameter variations listed in the comparison table below.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

BSP220,115 (Nexperia USA Inc.):

• Product status is "Not For New Designs," indicating end-of-life trajectory
• ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected
• MSL 1 rating provides unlimited moisture sensitivity tolerance
• Suitable for existing designs requiring continued supply or component replacement

ZVP2120GTA (Diodes Incorporated):

• Active product status ensures long-term availability and supply chain stability
• ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected
• MSL 1 rating provides unlimited moisture sensitivity tolerance
• Lower continuous drain current (200mA vs. 225mA) requires verification in current-limited applications
• Higher Rds On (25 Ohm vs. 12 Ohm) results in increased power dissipation; thermal design review is necessary
• Extended operating temperature range (−55°C to 150°C) provides broader environmental tolerance
• SOT-223-3 package maintains mechanical and thermal compatibility with SOT-223 footprints

Selection between these parts depends on application current requirements, thermal budget, and supply chain continuity objectives. The ZVP2120GTA is suitable for applications where the specified parameter variations do not exceed design margins.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the ZVP2120GTA directly replace the BSP220,115 in existing PCB designs?

A: Yes, the ZVP2120GTA is mechanically compatible with the SOT-223 footprint used by the BSP220,115. Both devices use the TO-261-4 and TO-261AA package designations. However, electrical parameter differences (lower Id rating and higher Rds On) must be evaluated against circuit requirements before implementation.

Q: What is the significance of the lower continuous drain current rating in the ZVP2120GTA?

A: The ZVP2120GTA is rated for 200mA continuous drain current compared to the BSP220,115's 225mA. Applications operating near or above 200mA must be re-evaluated to ensure the substitute part operates within safe current limits and does not exceed thermal dissipation capacity.

Q: How does the higher Rds On of the ZVP2120GTA affect circuit performance?

A: The ZVP2120GTA has a maximum Rds On of 25 Ohm (at 150mA, 10V) versus the BSP220,115's 12 Ohm (at 200mA, 10V). Higher on-resistance increases power dissipation and voltage drop across the device. Thermal analysis and voltage margin verification are required to confirm compatibility with the target application.

Q: Are both parts compliant with current regulatory standards?

A: Yes, both the BSP220,115 and ZVP2120GTA are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and carry MSL 1 (unlimited) moisture sensitivity ratings. Both meet current environmental and regulatory requirements for electronic component use.

Q: Why is the BSP220,115 marked as "Not For New Designs"?

A: This designation indicates the manufacturer has discontinued active development and promotion of this part number. The ZVP2120GTA, with active product status, represents a current alternative that ensures ongoing supply availability and manufacturer support.

Q: What is the difference between SOT-223 and SOT-223-3 package designations?

A: Both designations refer to the same physical package form factor (TO-261-4, TO-261AA). The "-3" suffix in SOT-223-3 specifies the three-terminal configuration. These packages are mechanically and thermally interchangeable on standard SOT-223 PCB footprints.

Q: Can the ZVP2120GTA operate at lower temperatures than the BSP220,115?

A: Yes, the ZVP2120GTA has an extended operating temperature range of −55°C to 150°C, compared to the BSP220,115's 150°C maximum. This provides additional environmental flexibility for applications requiring sub-zero operation.
