GT025N06AT N-Channel MOSFET Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The GT025N06AT is an N-Channel MOSFET manufactured by Goford Semiconductor, rated for 60V drain-to-source voltage and 170A continuous drain current in a Through Hole TO-220-3 package. This device is classified as Active product status and is designed for high-current switching applications requiring robust thermal performance up to 215W power dissipation.

Identifying equivalent and substitute parts is necessary when addressing inventory constraints, supply chain disruptions, or when specific compliance requirements must be met for production environments. This reference provides parametric equivalents that maintain electrical and mechanical compatibility with the original GT025N06AT specification.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the GT025N06AT is determined by strict parametric matching across the following critical electrical and mechanical criteria:

Electrical Parameters (Must Match):

• FET Type: N-Channel
• Drain-to-Source Voltage (Vdss): 60V
• Continuous Drain Current (Id) @ 25°C: 170A (Tc)
• On-State Resistance (Rds On Max) @ 20A, 10V: 2.5 mOhm
• Gate Threshold Voltage (Vgs(th) Max) @ 250µA: 2.5V
• Power Dissipation (Max): 215W (Tc)
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C to 150°C (TJ)

Mechanical Parameters (Must Match):

• Package Type: TO-220-3
• Mounting Type: Through Hole

The GT025N06AT from Goford Semiconductor (SGT Series) maintains full parametric equivalence with substitute candidates when all listed electrical and mechanical parameters are identical. Packaging format variations (Tube versus other configurations) do not affect electrical compatibility but may impact procurement and handling procedures.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Electrical Compatibility: The substitute GT025N06AT part maintains complete electrical equivalence with the main part across all specified parameters: 60V Vdss, 170A continuous drain current, 2.5 mOhm Rds On, and 215W power dissipation. Both parts operate across the identical temperature range of -55°C to 150°C (TJ) and utilize the same TO-220-3 Through Hole package configuration.

Compliance Considerations: The substitute part offers improved regulatory compliance status compared to the main part. The substitute achieves ROHS3 compliance, whereas the main part is RoHS non-compliant. The substitute also carries REACH Unaffected status, compared to Vendor Undefined for the main part. These compliance improvements may be required for applications subject to environmental or regulatory restrictions.

Moisture Sensitivity: The substitute part features MSL 1 (Unlimited) rating, providing superior moisture handling characteristics compared to the main part's MSL 3 (168 Hours) rating. This difference impacts storage, handling, and shelf-life management but does not affect electrical performance in operational environments.

Product Status: Both parts maintain Active product status, confirming ongoing manufacturer support and availability.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the substitute GT025N06AT be used as a direct replacement for the main GT025N06AT?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical across all specified parameters: N-Channel MOSFET, 60V Vdss, 170A continuous drain current, 2.5 mOhm Rds On, 215W power dissipation, and TO-220-3 Through Hole package. Direct substitution is supported for circuit-level compatibility.

Q: What is the difference in RoHS compliance between the two parts?

A: The main part is RoHS non-compliant, while the substitute part is ROHS3 compliant. Applications requiring RoHS compliance must use the substitute part. Non-compliant applications may use either part based on electrical requirements.

Q: Does the MSL rating difference affect circuit performance?

A: No. Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) ratings affect component storage, handling, and shelf-life management procedures, not electrical performance during operation. The main part requires storage at MSL 3 conditions (168 hours maximum), while the substitute part has no moisture sensitivity restrictions (MSL 1, Unlimited).

Q: Are the packaging formats interchangeable?

A: The main part is supplied in standard packaging, while the substitute part is supplied in Tube packaging. Both contain identical TO-220-3 Through Hole components. Tube packaging is a handling and procurement format variation that does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility.

Q: What is the REACH status difference?

A: The main part lists REACH status as Vendor Undefined, indicating incomplete regulatory documentation. The substitute part lists REACH Unaffected status, confirming full regulatory clarity. Applications requiring documented REACH compliance should use the substitute part.

Q: Are both parts from the same manufacturer?

A: Yes. Both parts are manufactured by Goford Semiconductor and belong to the SGT Series. Both maintain Active product status.

Q: Can I mix main and substitute parts in the same production batch?

A: Yes. Electrical and mechanical equivalence permits interchangeable use. However, compliance requirements and moisture sensitivity handling procedures may differ, requiring separate inventory management and documentation protocols.
