Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitutability for obsolete diodes such as the EL02Z is determined strictly by matching the following key parameters: category, maximum reverse voltage rating (Vr), average rectified current (Io), maximum forward voltage (Vf @ If), recovery speed, reverse recovery time (trr), maximum reverse leakage current, mounting type, package/case, operating junction temperature, and RoHS compliance status. Only parts meeting all these fields are identified as substitutes. This ensures electrical, mechanical, and regulatory compatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The EL02Z is obsolete, but is RoHS Compliant and meets standard regulatory requirements. The STTH1R02QRL is an active alternative with similar RoHS3 compliance. Both diodes are classified under the same category. Selection between these parts should be determined by the respective product status and regulatory certifications as provided. No other criteria from outside the input should be considered.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What parameters are mandatory for diode substitution in this product category?
A1: Mandatory parameters for substitution include voltage - DC reverse (Vr) (Max), current - average rectified (Io), voltage - forward (Vf) (Max) @ rated current, reverse recovery time (trr), reverse leakage current, mounting type, package/case, operating temperature - junction, and RoHS status.

Q2: Can STTH1R02QRL directly replace EL02Z in an existing design?
A2: STTH1R02QRL matches all key electrical and mechanical parameters present in the EL02Z input, including voltage, current ratings, speed, mounting type, and compliance, making it equivalent for substitution without introducing new criteria.

Q3: Is package compatibility assured between EL02Z and STTH1R02QRL?
A3: Both parts are specified as through-hole axial diodes. STTH1R02QRL uses the DO-204AC, DO-15, Axial package, which is in the axial category per the provided input.

Q4: Does RoHS compliance differ between the two parts?
A4: EL02Z is RoHS Compliant; STTH1R02QRL is ROHS3 Compliant. Both meet provided regulatory requirements.

Q5: What should be considered regarding product status during selection?
A5: EL02Z is obsolete, so for active production or replacement needs, STTH1R02QRL is suitable per its active product status as confirmed in the input data.
