BYV52PI-200RG Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The BYV52PI-200RG is a general-purpose diode array manufactured by STMicroelectronics, configured as a 1 Pair Common Cathode rectifier with 200 V reverse voltage rating and 30 A average rectified current per diode. The component is packaged in a TOP-3 Insulated through-hole configuration and is classified as obsolete. Due to its obsolete product status, equivalent substitute parts with active availability are necessary for new designs and ongoing production requirements. Substitute components maintain electrical and mechanical compatibility while offering improved performance characteristics and current market availability.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the BYV52PI-200RG is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Diode Configuration: 1 Pair Common Cathode
• Voltage - DC Reverse (Vr) (Max): 200 V
• Current - Average Rectified (Io) (per Diode): 30 A
• Technology: Standard
• Speed Classification: Fast Recovery ≤ 500ns, > 200mA (Io)
• Mounting Type: Through Hole
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant

Package Compatibility Consideration: Substitute parts are grouped into two categories based on package type. The STTH6002CPI maintains identical TOP-3 Insulated packaging, providing direct mechanical and electrical interchangeability. The STTH6002CW utilizes TO-247-3 packaging, which differs mechanically and requires board-level design accommodation.

Both substitute parts are manufactured by STMicroelectronics with active product status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain reliability.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

STTH6002CPI Selection: The STTH6002CPI is the primary substitute for BYV52PI-200RG applications. This component maintains identical TOP-3 Insulated packaging, enabling direct board-level replacement without PCB modification. The STTH6002CPI is manufactured by STMicroelectronics with active product status, ensuring continuous availability and supply chain stability. The component meets all ROHS3 compliance requirements and carries unlimited moisture sensitivity classification. Improved performance characteristics include reduced reverse recovery time (27 ns versus 50 ns) and extended maximum junction temperature rating (175°C versus 150°C).

STTH6002CW Selection: The STTH6002CW is an alternative substitute when TO-247-3 packaging is acceptable within the application design. This component shares identical electrical specifications with the STTH6002CPI but utilizes a different through-hole package footprint. Selection of STTH6002CW requires PCB redesign to accommodate the TO-247-3 package geometry. The component maintains active product status and full ROHS3 compliance. This option is suitable for applications where thermal management or mechanical mounting requirements favor the TO-247-3 package configuration.

Both substitute parts are qualified for direct electrical substitution based on matching voltage ratings, current ratings, diode configuration, and fast recovery speed classification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can STTH6002CPI be used as a direct replacement for BYV52PI-200RG without PCB modification?

A: Yes. The STTH6002CPI maintains identical TOP-3 Insulated packaging and through-hole mounting configuration. No PCB redesign is required for electrical or mechanical integration.

Q: What are the key differences between STTH6002CPI and STTH6002CW?

A: Both components share identical electrical specifications (200 V reverse voltage, 30 A current rating, 1 Pair Common Cathode configuration). The primary difference is packaging: STTH6002CPI uses TOP-3 Insulated, while STTH6002CW uses TO-247-3. Package selection determines PCB footprint requirements and thermal management characteristics.

Q: Are the substitute parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. Both STTH6002CPI and STTH6002CW are ROHS3 compliant, matching the compliance status of the original BYV52PI-200RG component.

Q: What is the impact of the forward voltage difference between BYV52PI-200RG and substitute parts?

A: The BYV52PI-200RG specifies 850 mV forward voltage at 20 A, while substitute parts specify 1.05 V at 30 A. These measurements are taken at different current levels and represent normal variation within the fast recovery diode technology class. Both values are within acceptable operating parameters for general-purpose rectification applications.

Q: Does the reduced reverse recovery time in substitute parts affect circuit compatibility?

A: The STTH6002CPI and STTH6002CW feature 27 ns reverse recovery time compared to 50 ns in the BYV52PI-200RG. Faster recovery time improves switching performance and reduces switching losses. This characteristic is compatible with all applications designed for the original component and provides enhanced performance in high-frequency switching applications.

Q: What is the inventory status of substitute parts?

A: STTH6002CPI has 16,124 pieces in stock. STTH6002CW has 2,214 pieces in stock. Both components are actively manufactured by STMicroelectronics with established supply chain availability.

Q: Can STTH6002CW be used in applications requiring TOP-3 Insulated packaging?

A: No. STTH6002CW uses TO-247-3 packaging and cannot be mechanically substituted in designs requiring TOP-3 Insulated package geometry. Use STTH6002CPI for TOP-3 Insulated package requirements.
