Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can S5K-E3/57T replace CGRC506-G in all applications?

A: Yes. S5K-E3/57T matches all core electrical parameters (800V, 5A, 1.15V forward voltage, standard recovery speed, 10µA reverse leakage) and mechanical specifications (DO-214AB SMC package, surface mount). Both components are Active status with ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating.

Q: What is the difference between S5KC-13-F and S5KL-TP?

A: Both parts meet the CGRC506-G electrical specifications. S5KC-13-F offers extended operating temperature range (-65°C to 150°C) compared to S5KL-TP (-55°C to 150°C). S5KC-13-F forward voltage is 1.15V @ 5A; S5KL-TP is 1.2V @ 5A. Both are packaged in DO-214AB SMC format.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these substitute parts?

A: S5K-E3/57T is available in Cut Tape (CT) and Digi-Reel formats. S5KC-13-F and S5KL-TP are supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format. All three use the same DO-214AB SMC package for surface mount assembly.
