BYT60P-1000 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The BYT60P-1000 is a diode array module manufactured by STMicroelectronics, configured as 2 independent rectifier diodes rated for 1000 V DC reverse voltage and 60 A average rectified current per diode. The device is packaged in SOD-93-2 through-hole configuration and features fast recovery characteristics with a reverse recovery time of 170 ns.

This part is classified as obsolete. Locating equivalent or substitute components is necessary to support ongoing system maintenance, repair, and production continuity where the original part is no longer available from primary sources.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the BYT60P-1000 is determined by the following critical electrical and mechanical parameters:

Electrical Compatibility Criteria:

• Voltage - DC Reverse (Vr) rating must equal or exceed 1000 V
• Current - Average Rectified (Io) per diode must equal or exceed 60 A
• Diode configuration must be 2 independent diodes
• Speed classification must be Fast Recovery (≤ 500 ns, > 200 mA)
• Technology must be Standard

Mechanical Compatibility Criteria:

• Mounting type must be compatible with the application circuit design
• Package form factor must physically fit the PCB or assembly layout

Compliance Criteria:

• RoHS3 compliance required
• MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited) required

The substitute part APT2X60D100J meets the electrical requirements for voltage and configuration but presents a different mounting type (Chassis Mount versus Through Hole) and package form (SOT-227-4, miniBLOC versus SOD-93-2). This substitute is suitable only for applications where the mechanical form factor can be accommodated.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Product Status Consideration: The BYT60P-1000 is classified as obsolete, making the APT2X60D100J a viable alternative due to its active product status and continued availability from the manufacturer.

Compliance Alignment: Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited), ensuring regulatory and environmental compatibility with existing supply chain requirements.

Electrical Performance Trade-offs: The APT2X60D100J substitute exhibits the following electrical differences:

• Current rating is 55 A per diode versus 60 A on the original part
• Forward voltage drop is 2.5 V versus 1.9 V, resulting in higher power dissipation
• Reverse recovery time is 280 ns versus 170 ns, indicating slower switching characteristics
• Reverse leakage current is 250 µA versus 100 µA at rated voltage

Mechanical Compatibility: The substitute part uses a different mounting technology (Chassis Mount, SOT-227-4, miniBLOC) compared to the through-hole SOD-93-2 package of the original part. Circuit board redesign or mechanical adaptation may be required for physical integration.

Selection of the APT2X60D100J is appropriate only when the application circuit can accommodate the mechanical form factor change and the electrical performance differences do not exceed system design margins.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the APT2X60D100J directly replace the BYT60P-1000 in an existing circuit?

A: Direct replacement is not possible without circuit board modification. The BYT60P-1000 uses through-hole mounting (SOD-93-2 package), while the APT2X60D100J uses chassis mount technology (SOT-227-4, miniBLOC package). Physical layout and mounting structure must be redesigned to accommodate the substitute part.

Q: What are the electrical performance differences between these parts?

A: The APT2X60D100J has a lower current rating (55 A versus 60 A), higher forward voltage drop (2.5 V versus 1.9 V), longer reverse recovery time (280 ns versus 170 ns), and higher reverse leakage current (250 µA versus 100 µA). These differences result in increased power dissipation and slower switching response.

Q: Are both parts compliant with environmental and regulatory standards?

A: Yes. Both the BYT60P-1000 and APT2X60D100J are ROHS3 compliant and carry MSL rating 1 (Unlimited), meeting current environmental and moisture sensitivity requirements.

Q: What is the voltage rating compatibility between these parts?

A: Both parts are rated for 1000 V DC reverse voltage and feature 2 independent diode configuration, making them electrically compatible in terms of voltage class and topology.

Q: Why is the BYT60P-1000 classified as obsolete?

A: The BYT60P-1000 is no longer manufactured by STMicroelectronics and is not available through primary distribution channels. The APT2X60D100J from Microchip Technology is an active product with ongoing manufacturing and availability.

Q: Should thermal management considerations differ between these parts?

A: Yes. The APT2X60D100J exhibits higher forward voltage drop (2.5 V versus 1.9 V at 60 A), resulting in greater power dissipation per diode. Thermal design calculations must account for this increased heat generation in the substitute part.

Q: Are there other substitute parts listed for the BYT60P-1000?

A: According to the provided data, the BYT60P-1000 lists APT2X60D100J as a substitute. The APT2X60D100J itself lists additional substitutes (STTH6110TV2 and APT2X61D100J), which may be evaluated through separate cross-reference documentation.
