Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for BYM36A-TAP are determined strictly by matching category (Diodes, Rectifiers), DC Reverse Voltage (Vr), average current (Io), mounting type (Through Hole), and package (Axial format). Only those meeting or exceeding the required electrical and mechanical characteristics are considered. The selection does not consider inferred attributes, ensuring compatibility solely on the provided technical specifications.

Key substitution parameters:

• Voltage - DC Reverse (Vr) (Max)
• Current - Average Rectified (Io)
• Mounting Type
• Package / Case
• RoHS compliance
• Operating temperature range
• Reverse leakage current

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

• BYM36A-TAP, 1N5402G, 1N5402RLG, and EGP30D are all ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected.
• BYM36A-TAP and 1N5402G show active product status, while 1N5402RLG and EGP30D are identified as not for new designs.
• All substitute parts possess the required DC reverse voltage, current rating, through-hole mounting, and axial package format relevant for the category.
• Consider available operating temperature and reverse leakage parameters when selecting between active and not-for-new-design alternatives.
• Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) is classified as “1 (Unlimited)” or Not Applicable for all parts.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Which parameter must always be matched when substituting diodes in the rectifier category?
A: Voltage rating (Vr), current rating (Io), mounting type, and package dimensions must be matched to ensure identical electrical and mechanical fit.

Q: Are axial packages interchangeable across the substitute parts listed?
A: Substitute parts in DO-201AD, DO-201AA, DO-27, SOD-64 axial formats maintain through-hole compatibility. Dimensional deviations may occur between package styles but mounting type remains consistent.

Q: Is reverse leakage current a critical specification for substitution?
A: Compatibility requires equal or lower reverse leakage current when substituting. All substitute parts listed meet or closely match this value as specified.

Q: Are any of the substitute parts non-compliant with RoHS?
A: All substitute parts provided are ROHS3 compliant.

Q: What is the significance of product status: 'Not For New Designs'?
A: 'Not For New Designs' signifies a part is not recommended for future development but remains suitable for ongoing or maintenance applications if the remaining parameters align. Availability should be confirmed.

Q: How does speed/recovery time affect substitutability?
A: Substitute selection requires specifying equivalent or better speed/recovery time for fast-switching applications. Provided substitutes offer standard or fast recovery within the required range.

Q: Can substitute diodes be selected solely on base product number equivalency?
A: Only explicit electrical and mechanical specifications, not inferred product family relationships, should be considered for substitution per engineering best practices.
