Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute models are determined strictly by evaluating the following key parameters: Category, Configuration, Technology, Drain to Source Voltage (Vdss), Current - Continuous Drain (Id) @ 25°C, Power - Max, Mounting Type, Package / Case, RoHS Status, and MSL. Parts are considered compatible substitutes only when they match or exceed electrical, mechanical, and compliance requirements defined by these parameters.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Based strictly on product status, compliance, and provided certifications: CAS100H12AM1 is obsolete and non-compliant with RoHS requirements, whereas BSM180D12P2C101 is active with ROHS3 compliance and the same Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL 1). These factors support the use of BSM180D12P2C101 as a substitute in applications requiring suitable compliance documentation and continued sourcing.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What parameters must match to consider a MOSFET module a suitable substitute?
A1: Key parameters include Drain to Source Voltage (Vdss), Current - Continuous Drain (Id) at specified temperatures, Configuration, Mounting Type, Package / Case, RoHS Status, and MSL.

Q2: Are the substitute parts in the same mechanical package as the original part?
A2: Both CAS100H12AM1 and BSM180D12P2C101 are supplied in Module package format.

Q3: How does RoHS status affect substitution decisions?
A3: Compliance with RoHS or other regulations may be a requirement for certain designs or markets; the substitute BSM180D12P2C101 is ROHS3 Compliant, in contrast to the RoHS non-compliant status of CAS100H12AM1.

Q4: Do the electrical characteristics of BSM180D12P2C101 meet or exceed those of CAS100H12AM1?
A4: BSM180D12P2C101 matches the 1200V voltage rating and exceeds the continuous drain current and power ratings listed for CAS100H12AM1.

Q5: Is Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) a consideration in this substitution?
A5: Both parts are rated MSL 1 (Unlimited), indicating equivalence in this aspect.
