Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three substitute parts—FR203G, FR203GT-G, and PG202R_R2_00001—are qualified equivalents for the FR203GP-TP based on electrical and mechanical parameter matching. The following factors support selection:

FR203G (Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation): Active product status with 725 units in stock. Meets all electrical specifications. Supplied in DO-204AC (DO-15) package configuration. ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1 rating.

FR203GT-G (Comchip Technology): Active product status with 925 units in stock. Meets all electrical specifications. Supplied in DO-15 package with tape and reel packaging option. ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1 rating.

PG202R_R2_00001 (Panjit International Inc.): Active product status with highest inventory availability at 4667 units in stock. Meets all electrical specifications with improved reverse leakage performance (1 µA vs. 5 µA). Supplied in DO-15 package with cut tape packaging option. ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1 rating.

All substitute parts maintain compliance with ROHS3 and REACH requirements. Selection among these equivalents depends on packaging preference (tape & reel vs. cut tape), manufacturer preference, and inventory availability requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can FR203G be used as a direct replacement for FR203GP-TP?

A: Yes. FR203G meets all critical electrical parameters: 200 V reverse voltage, 2 A average rectified current, 1.3 V forward voltage at 2 A, and 150 ns reverse recovery time. Both are through-hole mounted in DO-15 package configuration. The primary difference is product status (FR203G is active vs. FR203GP-TP not for new designs) and reverse leakage specification (5 µA).

Q: What is the difference between FR203GT-G and FR203G?

A: Both parts are electrically equivalent with identical voltage, current, and recovery time specifications. The primary differences are manufacturer (Comchip Technology vs. Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation) and packaging format (tape & reel vs. standard packaging). FR203GT-G offers higher inventory availability (925 units vs. 725 units).

Q: Why does PG202R_R2_00001 show lower reverse leakage current?

A: PG202R_R2_00001 specifies 1 µA reverse leakage at 200 V compared to 5 µA for the main part and other substitutes. This represents improved leakage performance and does not affect substitution compatibility. Lower reverse leakage is a beneficial characteristic in rectifier applications.

Q: Are all substitute parts available in the same package?

A: All substitute parts use DO-15 through-hole axial package configuration, which is mechanically and electrically compatible with FR203GP-TP. FR203G is supplied as DO-204AC (DO-15), FR203GT-G as DO-15, and PG202R_R2_00001 as DO-15. These designations refer to the same physical package form.

Q: What packaging options are available for these substitutes?

A: FR203GP-TP is supplied in tape & reel (TR) format. FR203GT-G is also available in tape & reel format. PG202R_R2_00001 is supplied in cut tape (CT) format. FR203G packaging format is not specified in available data. Packaging selection depends on assembly process requirements and volume needs.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. All substitute parts—FR203G, FR203GT-G, and PG202R_R2_00001—are ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1 (unlimited moisture sensitivity level). All meet REACH requirements and carry EAR99 ECCN classification.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably in existing designs?

A: Yes, within the scope of the electrical and thermal specifications provided. All substitute parts maintain the same voltage rating (200 V), current rating (2 A), forward voltage (1.3 V @ 2 A), recovery time (150 ns), and operating temperature range (-55°C to 150°C). Physical package dimensions are identical for through-hole mounting.
