Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution between CDBMT230L-G and CDBMT230L-HF is based on identical electrical and mechanical parameters. Both parts share the following critical specifications:

• Reverse voltage rating: 30V DC
• Average rectified current: 2A
• Forward voltage drop: 400 mV @ 2A
• Recovery speed: Fast Recovery ≤ 500ns, > 200mA
• Reverse leakage current: 1 mA @ 30V
• Junction capacitance: 160 pF @ 4V, 1MHz
• Package type: SOD-123H surface mount
• Operating temperature range: -55°C to 100°C
• Compliance: ROHS3, MSL 1

The primary distinction is product status and packaging format. CDBMT230L-G is obsolete with bulk inventory, while CDBMT230L-HF is active with Tape & Reel packaging, providing superior supply chain continuity.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

CDBMT230L-HF is the direct functional equivalent for CDBMT230L-G applications. Selection criteria are based on the following factors:

Product Status: CDBMT230L-HF maintains active product status with Comchip Technology, ensuring long-term availability and manufacturing support. CDBMT230L-G is classified as obsolete, presenting supply risk for new production.

Compliance & Certifications: Both parts are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements. MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited) indicates no moisture sensitivity constraints during storage or handling.

Electrical Equivalence: All electrical parameters are identical, including voltage ratings, current capacity, forward voltage characteristics, and recovery speed specifications. Direct circuit substitution is supported without design modification.

Packaging Consideration: CDBMT230L-HF is supplied in Tape & Reel format, standard for automated assembly processes. CDBMT230L-G bulk packaging may require manual handling or reeling services, increasing production overhead.

For new designs and ongoing production, CDBMT230L-HF is the appropriate selection. Existing inventory of CDBMT230L-G may be utilized for current stock depletion, with transition to CDBMT230L-HF for future procurement.
