FR607-AP Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The FR607-AP is a general-purpose rectifier diode manufactured by Micro Commercial Co, rated for 1000 V DC reverse voltage and 6 A average rectified current in an R-6 axial through-hole package. This part is classified as obsolete, necessitating identification of active equivalent alternatives for new designs and ongoing production requirements. Substitute parts must maintain identical electrical performance characteristics and mechanical compatibility to ensure direct replacement capability.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the FR607-AP are classified based on strict electrical and mechanical parameter matching. All substitute diodes must satisfy the following criteria to ensure functional equivalence:

Critical Matching Parameters:

• Voltage - DC Reverse (Vr) (Max): 1000 V
• Current - Average Rectified (Io): 6 A
• Voltage - Forward (Vf) (Max) @ If: 1.3 V @ 6 A
• Reverse Recovery Time (trr): 500 ns
• Current - Reverse Leakage @ Vr: 10 µA @ 1000 V
• Mounting Type: Through Hole
• Package / Case: R-6, Axial
• Operating Temperature - Junction: -55°C to 150°C
• Technology: Standard

Substitutes are grouped into two categories: direct manufacturer equivalents (same manufacturer, active product status) and parametric equivalents (alternative manufacturers with identical electrical specifications). Capacitance variations within the specified range do not preclude substitution eligibility.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

FR607GP-AP (Direct Equivalent - Recommended Primary Choice)

The FR607GP-AP is manufactured by Micro Commercial Co and maintains active product status. This part is electrically and mechanically identical to the FR607-AP across all specified parameters. The FR607GP-AP carries ROHS3 compliance and REACH Unaffected status, providing regulatory continuity. Current inventory availability is 856 pieces. Selection of this part eliminates any design or supply chain transition considerations.

FR607B-G (Parametric Equivalent - Secondary Choice)

The FR607B-G is manufactured by Comchip Technology and holds active product status. This part satisfies all critical electrical parameters and maintains R-6 axial through-hole package compatibility. The capacitance specification differs (100 pF versus 150 pF at 4V, 1MHz), which remains within acceptable operating ranges for general-purpose rectification applications. The FR607B-G is supplied in Tape & Box packaging with 954 pieces in current inventory. This part is suitable for applications where manufacturer diversification is required or where primary equivalent availability is constrained.

Both substitute parts are ROHS3 compliant and carry identical operating temperature ranges and reverse leakage specifications. Selection between FR607GP-AP and FR607B-G depends on supply chain strategy, packaging requirements, and manufacturer preference.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can FR607GP-AP be used as a direct replacement for FR607-AP?

A: Yes. The FR607GP-AP is electrically and mechanically identical to the FR607-AP. All critical parameters including voltage rating, current capacity, forward voltage drop, reverse recovery time, and package configuration match exactly. The primary distinction is product status: FR607GP-AP is active while FR607-AP is obsolete.

Q: What is the difference between FR607GP-AP and FR607B-G?

A: Both parts meet all critical electrical specifications for 1000 V, 6 A rectification. The FR607B-G has a lower capacitance rating (100 pF versus 150 pF at 4V, 1MHz). Both are R-6 axial through-hole packages. FR607GP-AP is manufactured by Micro Commercial Co; FR607B-G is manufactured by Comchip Technology. FR607GP-AP is supplied in standard packaging; FR607B-G is supplied in Tape & Box.

Q: Are there any compatibility concerns when substituting these parts?

A: No compatibility concerns exist for either substitute part. All three diodes share identical mounting type (through-hole), package configuration (R-6 axial), operating temperature range (-55°C to 150°C), and electrical performance specifications. Direct board-level substitution is supported without circuit modification.

Q: Which substitute part should be selected for new designs?

A: FR607GP-AP is the recommended selection for new designs. It maintains manufacturer continuity with the original FR607-AP and carries active product status with established supply chain availability. FR607B-G is suitable as an alternative source when FR607GP-AP availability is limited or when multi-source qualification is required.

Q: Does the capacitance difference in FR607B-G affect circuit performance?

A: The capacitance difference (100 pF in FR607B-G versus 150 pF in FR607-AP and FR607GP-AP) does not affect rectification performance in standard general-purpose applications. Capacitance becomes relevant only in high-frequency switching circuits or where specific junction capacitance values are design-critical. For general-purpose rectification, both values are functionally equivalent.

Q: Are all three parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. FR607-AP, FR607GP-AP, and FR607B-G are all ROHS3 compliant. FR607GP-AP additionally carries REACH Unaffected status. All three parts have Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture-related handling restrictions.
