GPAS1002 MNG Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The GPAS1002 MNG is a general-purpose rectifier diode manufactured by Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation, rated for 100 V DC reverse voltage and 10 A average rectified current. The device is housed in a Surface Mount TO-263AB (D2PAK) package and is classified as Active product status with standard recovery characteristics. This diode is suitable for general rectification applications requiring moderate current handling in compact surface-mount form factors.

Substitute parts are identified to provide alternative sourcing options when the primary part becomes unavailable or when application requirements necessitate different performance characteristics within compatible electrical and mechanical parameters.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the GPAS1002 MNG is determined by the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Compatibility Criteria:

• Voltage - DC Reverse (Vr) (Max): Must equal or exceed 100 V
• Package / Case: Must be TO-263-3, D2PAK (2 Leads + Tab), TO-263AB
• Mounting Type: Must be Surface Mount
• RoHS Status: Must be ROHS3 Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL): Must be 1 (Unlimited)

Performance Parameters:

• Current - Average Rectified (Io): Substitute must support minimum 10 A
• Voltage - Forward (Vf): Substitute forward voltage characteristics must be compatible with circuit design
• Current - Reverse Leakage @ Vr: Substitute leakage must not exceed application requirements
• Operating Temperature - Junction: Substitute maximum junction temperature must support application thermal environment

The FERD40H100SG-TR meets all mandatory compatibility criteria and provides enhanced current handling capability (40 A versus 10 A), making it suitable for applications requiring higher current capacity within the same voltage and package specifications.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

GPAS1002 MNG Selection: Select the GPAS1002 MNG when the application requires a standard recovery rectifier diode with 10 A current rating at 100 V reverse voltage. This part is suitable for general-purpose rectification circuits where standard recovery speed is acceptable and current demands do not exceed 10 A. The part maintains Active product status with full RoHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating.

FERD40H100SG-TR Selection: Select the FERD40H100SG-TR when the application requires higher current capacity (40 A) within the same 100 V voltage rating and D2PAK package footprint. This substitute employs Field Effect Rectifier Diode (FERD) technology with fast recovery characteristics (≤500ns), providing improved switching performance compared to standard recovery devices. The part maintains Active product status with full RoHS3 compliance, unlimited moisture sensitivity rating, and higher maximum junction temperature (175°C versus 150°C).

Both parts are suitable for direct PCB footprint compatibility and meet all regulatory compliance requirements. Selection between these parts depends on application current requirements and recovery speed performance needs.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the FERD40H100SG-TR directly replace the GPAS1002 MNG on the same PCB?

A: Yes. Both devices share identical TO-263-3 D2PAK package geometry with 2 leads plus tab configuration. PCB footprints are mechanically and electrically compatible for direct substitution.

Q: What is the primary difference between these two diodes?

A: The FERD40H100SG-TR provides 40 A current capacity compared to the GPAS1002 MNG at 10 A, both at 100 V reverse voltage. The FERD40H100SG-TR uses Field Effect Rectifier Diode technology with fast recovery (≤500ns) versus standard recovery (>500ns) in the GPAS1002 MNG. Forward voltage at rated current is lower in the FERD40H100SG-TR (705 mV @ 40 A) compared to the GPAS1002 MNG (1.1 V @ 10 A).

Q: Are there any thermal considerations when substituting these parts?

A: The FERD40H100SG-TR has a higher maximum junction temperature rating (175°C) compared to the GPAS1002 MNG (150°C). Both parts are rated for the same operating temperature range minimum (-55°C). Thermal design considerations depend on application power dissipation and heat management requirements.

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both the GPAS1002 MNG and FERD40H100SG-TR are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, classified as EAR99, and carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating.

Q: What is the difference in reverse leakage current between these parts?

A: The GPAS1002 MNG has 5 µA reverse leakage at 100 V, while the FERD40H100SG-TR has 190 µA reverse leakage at 100 V. Applications sensitive to leakage current should account for this difference in circuit design.

Q: Can the GPAS1002 MNG be used in applications requiring 40 A current?

A: No. The GPAS1002 MNG is rated for maximum 10 A average rectified current. Using this part in 40 A applications exceeds its current rating and will result in device failure or degradation.
