ES1CL RTG Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The ES1CL RTG is a general-purpose rectifier diode manufactured by Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation, rated for 150 V DC reverse voltage and 1 A average rectified current in a Sub SMA surface mount package. This component is classified as a fast recovery diode with a reverse recovery time of 35 ns, suitable for applications requiring efficient switching characteristics at moderate voltage and current levels. The part maintains Active product status with full RoHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating. Substitute parts are identified to provide alternative sourcing options while maintaining electrical and mechanical compatibility within the specified parameter ranges.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the ES1CL RTG with the ES1CL RVG is based on parametric equivalence across all critical electrical and mechanical specifications. Both parts share identical ratings for reverse voltage (150 V), average rectified current (1 A), forward voltage drop (950 mV @ 1 A), reverse recovery time (35 ns), reverse leakage current (5 µA @ 150 V), and fast recovery speed classification. Both components utilize the DO-219AB package with Sub SMA supplier device package designation and surface mount mounting type. Operating temperature range, RoHS3 compliance, and base product number (ES1C) are identical across both parts. The primary distinction between these parts is packaging format: ES1CL RTG is supplied in reel tape (RTG), while ES1CL RVG is supplied in cut tape (CT). This difference affects inventory management and component handling but does not alter electrical performance or mechanical compatibility in circuit applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Selection between ES1CL RTG and ES1CL RVG is determined by procurement and assembly requirements rather than electrical performance. Both parts are Active products with ROHS3 compliance, REACH Unaffected status, and EAR99 export classification. The ES1CL RTG in reel tape format is suitable for high-volume automated assembly operations where continuous tape feeding is required. The ES1CL RVG in cut tape format accommodates lower-volume production runs, manual assembly processes, or applications where component-level inventory management is preferred. Inventory availability should be considered: ES1CL RVG maintains significantly higher stock levels (59,700 pcs) compared to ES1CL RTG (679 pcs). Both parts meet identical electrical specifications and thermal operating ranges, ensuring functional interchangeability in circuit design without modification to PCB layout or component footprint.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are ES1CL RTG and ES1CL RVG electrically identical?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical ratings: 150 V reverse voltage, 1 A average rectified current, 950 mV forward voltage drop at 1 A, 35 ns reverse recovery time, and 5 µA reverse leakage current at 150 V. Fast recovery speed classification and operating temperature range (-55 to 150°C) are identical.

Q: What is the difference between reel tape (RTG) and cut tape (CT) packaging?

A: Reel tape (RTG) supplies components on continuous tape spools suitable for automated pick-and-place assembly equipment. Cut tape (CT) supplies components in individual tape segments, typically used for lower-volume assembly, manual placement, or component-level distribution. Both formats contain identical components in the same DO-219AB package.

Q: Can ES1CL RVG be used as a direct replacement for ES1CL RTG in production?

A: Direct substitution is possible from an electrical and mechanical standpoint. However, assembly process compatibility must be evaluated. Automated assembly lines configured for reel tape feeding require adjustment to accommodate cut tape format. Manual assembly processes or semi-automated systems can accommodate cut tape without modification.

Q: Are there any compliance or certification differences between these parts?

A: No. Both ES1CL RTG and ES1CL RVG maintain identical RoHS3 compliance, REACH Unaffected status, and EAR99 export classification. Moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1 - Unlimited) is identical for both parts.

Q: Which part should be selected for new designs?

A: Selection depends on production volume and assembly capability. High-volume automated production favors reel tape format (RTG). Lower-volume production, prototype development, or manual assembly processes favor cut tape format (CT). Both parts are Active products suitable for new designs.

Q: Is there a performance difference in circuit operation between these parts?

A: No. Circuit performance is identical. Both parts exhibit the same forward voltage drop, reverse recovery characteristics, leakage current, and thermal behavior across the specified operating temperature range.
