Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the FR202GP-TP is determined by the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Criteria:

Voltage - DC Reverse (Vr) (Max): 100 V minimum
Current - Average Rectified (Io): 2 A minimum
Mounting Type: Through Hole
Package / Case: DO-15 or DO-204AC (equivalent axial packages)
Operating Temperature Range: -55°C to 150°C minimum

Performance Characteristics:

Voltage - Forward (Vf) (Max) @ If: 1.3 V @ 2 A or lower
Speed: Fast Recovery ≤ 500ns, > 200mA (Io)
Reverse Recovery Time (trr): 150 ns or lower
Current - Reverse Leakage @ Vr: 5 µA @ 100 V or lower

Substitute parts are classified into two categories:

Parametric Equivalents: Parts that match all mandatory criteria and performance characteristics, enabling direct replacement without circuit modification.

Similar Alternatives: Parts that meet mandatory voltage and current requirements but may differ in secondary performance parameters such as recovery speed or leakage current, requiring application-level verification.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Parametric Equivalents (Direct Replacement):

The following parts satisfy all mandatory electrical and mechanical parameters and are classified as active products:

FR202G (Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation): Identical electrical specifications including 2 A current rating, 150 ns reverse recovery time, and fast recovery speed. Active product status supports long-term availability.
FR202GT-G (Comchip Technology): Matches all critical parameters with 2 A current rating and 150 ns reverse recovery time. Supplied in Tape & Reel packaging. Active product status.
PG201R_R2_00001 (Panjit International Inc.): Meets all mandatory specifications with 2 A current rating and 150 ns reverse recovery time. Reverse leakage current of 1 µA @ 100 V is superior to the main part. Active product status.

All three parametric equivalents are ROHS3 compliant and operate across the -55°C to 150°C junction temperature range.

Similar Alternative (Current-Limited):

1N5392GHB0G (Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation): Rated for 1.5 A average rectified current, which is below the 2 A requirement of the FR202GP-TP. This part operates at standard recovery speed (>500ns) rather than fast recovery (≤500ns). This component is suitable only for applications where the circuit current demand does not exceed 1.5 A and where standard recovery speed is acceptable. AEC-Q101 automotive qualification is provided. Active product status.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1N5392GHB0G replace the FR202GP-TP in all applications?

A: No. The 1N5392GHB0G is rated for 1.5 A average rectified current, while the FR202GP-TP is rated for 2 A. This part is suitable only for circuits where the maximum current demand does not exceed 1.5 A. Additionally, the 1N5392GHB0G operates at standard recovery speed (>500ns) compared to the fast recovery speed (≤500ns) of the FR202GP-TP, which may affect circuit performance in high-frequency applications.

Q: Are FR202G, FR202GT-G, and PG201R_R2_00001 interchangeable with the FR202GP-TP?

A: Yes. All three parts are parametric equivalents with identical voltage ratings (100 V), current ratings (2 A), forward voltage (1.3 V @ 2 A), recovery time (150 ns), and operating temperature range (-55°C to 150°C). They are electrically and mechanically compatible for direct substitution.

Q: What is the difference between DO-15 and DO-204AC packaging?

A: DO-15 and DO-204AC are equivalent designations for the same axial through-hole package. Both refer to a cylindrical diode package with leads at each end, suitable for through-hole PCB mounting. All substitute parts listed use this same package format.

Q: Why is the FR202GP-TP marked "Not For New Designs"?

A: This designation indicates the part has reached end-of-life status and is no longer recommended for new product development. However, it remains available for legacy system support and repair. The parametric equivalents listed (FR202G, FR202GT-G, PG201R_R2_00001) are active products suitable for both new designs and replacement applications.

Q: Does the lower reverse leakage current of PG201R_R2_00001 (1 µA vs. 5 µA) affect compatibility?

A: No. Lower reverse leakage current is a beneficial characteristic that does not compromise compatibility. The PG201R_R2_00001 will perform identically to or better than the FR202GP-TP in all applications.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. All listed substitute parts are ROHS3 compliant, matching the compliance status of the FR202GP-TP.
