ES1CL R3G Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The ES1CL R3G is a general-purpose rectifier diode manufactured by Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation, classified as a fast recovery diode in the Sub SMA package format. This component operates at 150 V DC reverse voltage with 1 A average rectified current and features a reverse recovery time of 35 nanoseconds. The part is actively produced and maintains full RoHS3 compliance with unlimited moisture sensitivity rating (MSL 1).

Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical performance and mechanical compatibility are maintained across all critical parameters. Alternative packaging configurations may be necessary due to inventory availability, supply chain considerations, or specific procurement requirements while maintaining identical functional performance.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the ES1CL R3G is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical Parameters (Must Match Exactly):

• Voltage - DC Reverse (Vr) (Max): 150 V
• Current - Average Rectified (Io): 1 A
• Voltage - Forward (Vf) (Max) @ If: 950 mV @ 1 A
• Reverse Recovery Time (trr): 35 ns
• Current - Reverse Leakage @ Vr: 5 µA @ 150 V
• Speed Classification: Fast Recovery ≤ 500ns, > 200mA (Io)

Mechanical Parameters (Must Match Exactly):

• Package / Case: DO-219AB
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount
• Supplier Device Package: Sub SMA

Compliance Parameters (Must Match Exactly):

• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL): 1 (Unlimited)
• REACH Status: REACH Unaffected

Variable Parameter (Allowed to Differ):

• Packaging Format: Tape & Reel (TR) or Cut Tape (CT) — both formats are acceptable for the same component

The ES1CL RVG qualifies as a parametric equivalent substitute based on identical electrical, mechanical, and compliance specifications. The only difference is the packaging format (Cut Tape versus Tape & Reel), which does not affect component functionality or circuit performance.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Selection (ES1CL R3G): The ES1CL R3G in Tape & Reel format is the primary specification for high-volume automated assembly operations. This packaging format provides continuous component feed capability for pick-and-place equipment and is suitable for production environments requiring maximum throughput.

Substitute Selection (ES1CL RVG): The ES1CL RVG in Cut Tape format is functionally equivalent and maintains all electrical and mechanical specifications. This packaging format is appropriate for lower-volume applications, manual assembly processes, or situations where component inventory from Cut Tape stock is available. Both parts carry identical RoHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, ensuring regulatory equivalence.

Compliance Assurance: Both parts maintain active product status with full RoHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating (MSL 1). No additional handling or storage procedures are required beyond standard component management practices. Both parts are classified under identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8541.10.0080) codes.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can ES1CL RVG be used as a direct replacement for ES1CL R3G in circuit design?

A: Yes. The ES1CL RVG is electrically and mechanically equivalent to the ES1CL R3G. All critical parameters including reverse voltage rating (150 V), forward current (1 A), forward voltage drop (950 mV @ 1 A), and reverse recovery time (35 ns) are identical. The only difference is the packaging format (Cut Tape versus Tape & Reel), which does not affect circuit performance.

Q: What is the difference between Tape & Reel (TR) and Cut Tape (CT) packaging?

A: Tape & Reel packaging provides components on a continuous reel suitable for automated pick-and-place assembly equipment. Cut Tape packaging provides components on individual tape segments, typically used for manual assembly, lower-volume production, or component distribution. Both formats contain the same component with identical electrical specifications.

Q: Are there any temperature or environmental differences between these parts?

A: No. Both the ES1CL R3G and ES1CL RVG operate across the identical temperature range of -55°C to 150°C junction temperature. Both maintain the same moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1 - Unlimited) and require no special handling or storage conditions beyond standard component management.

Q: Do both parts meet the same regulatory compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both parts are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and classified under the same ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8541.10.0080) codes. They are functionally equivalent from a regulatory and compliance perspective.

Q: What is the significance of the capacitance measurement difference (1V versus 4V)?

A: The capacitance specification is measured at different bias voltages (1V for ES1CL R3G and 4V for ES1CL RVG) but both measure 10 pF at 1 MHz. This represents the same capacitive characteristic measured under different test conditions and does not affect circuit performance or substitution eligibility.

Q: Which part should be selected for new designs?

A: Selection between ES1CL R3G and ES1CL RVG depends on manufacturing requirements. For automated assembly with pick-and-place equipment, the Tape & Reel format (ES1CL R3G) is standard. For manual assembly or lower-volume applications, the Cut Tape format (ES1CL RVG) is appropriate. Both are equally suitable from an electrical and compliance standpoint.

Q: Is inventory availability a factor in part selection?

A: Inventory levels may influence procurement decisions. The ES1CL RVG currently maintains higher inventory (59,700 pcs) compared to the ES1CL R3G (766 pcs). However, inventory status does not affect the technical equivalence or substitution eligibility of either part.
