IPS6041STRLPBF Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The IPS6041STRLPBF is a high-side N-channel power switch driver manufactured by Infineon Technologies, designed for general-purpose switching applications in the 6V to 28V load voltage range. This component operates as a 1:1 ratio switch with a maximum output current of 2.3A and an on-resistance of 110mOhm typical. The device features auto-restart capability, current limiting, open load detection, and over-temperature protection.

The IPS6041STRLPBF is classified as obsolete. Identifying equivalent and substitute parts is necessary to maintain design continuity, ensure supply chain availability, and support ongoing production requirements for systems utilizing this component.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the IPS6041STRLPBF is determined by strict alignment of the following electrical and mechanical parameters:

• Output Configuration & Type: High-side N-channel switching topology
• Ratio: 1:1 input-to-output ratio
• Interface: On/Off control (non-inverting input)
• Package Compatibility: TO-263-5 / D2PAK form factor for direct PCB replacement
• Operating Temperature Range: -40°C to 150°C junction temperature
• Fault Protection Features: Current limiting, open load detection, and over-temperature protection

The BTS441RGATMA1 qualifies as a substitute part because it maintains identical output configuration, control interface, package form factor, and operating temperature range. While the substitute exhibits enhanced electrical performance characteristics (higher current rating and lower on-resistance), these represent improvements that do not compromise compatibility with the original design intent.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The BTS441RGATMA1 is the manufacturer-recommended substitute for the obsolete IPS6041STRLPBF. Both components are manufactured by Infineon Technologies and share identical package geometry (TO-263-5 / D2PAK), enabling direct PCB replacement without layout modifications.

The BTS441RGATMA1 carries active product status and ROHS3 compliance certification, ensuring long-term supply chain availability and regulatory alignment with current environmental standards. The IPS6041STRLPBF, classified as obsolete, presents supply continuity risk and lacks current compliance documentation.

From an electrical perspective, the BTS441RGATMA1 operates within the original design voltage envelope (4.75V to 43V load voltage encompasses the 6V to 28V specification of the IPS6041STRLPBF). The enhanced current rating (17A versus 2.3A) and reduced on-resistance (15mOhm versus 110mOhm) represent performance improvements that do not introduce incompatibility. The addition of over-voltage protection in the substitute provides enhanced fault coverage beyond the original design.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the BTS441RGATMA1 be used as a direct replacement for the IPS6041STRLPBF without PCB modifications?

A: Yes. Both components utilize the TO-263-5 / D2PAK package with identical pinout and lead spacing. Direct PCB replacement is possible without layout changes.

Q: What is the primary reason for substitution?

A: The IPS6041STRLPBF is classified as obsolete. The BTS441RGATMA1 is the active, manufacturer-recommended equivalent that maintains functional and mechanical compatibility while ensuring supply availability.

Q: Are there electrical performance differences between these parts?

A: The BTS441RGATMA1 exhibits higher current capacity (17A versus 2.3A) and lower on-resistance (15mOhm versus 110mOhm). These represent performance enhancements. The substitute also supports a wider load voltage range (4.75V to 43V versus 6V to 28V) and includes over-voltage protection in addition to the original fault protection features.

Q: Will the substitute part function correctly in existing circuit designs?

A: Yes. The BTS441RGATMA1 maintains the same high-side N-channel switching topology, 1:1 ratio, on/off control interface, and operating temperature range as the original part. Enhanced electrical performance does not compromise functional compatibility.

Q: What compliance certifications apply to the substitute part?

A: The BTS441RGATMA1 is ROHS3 compliant and carries REACH Unaffected status. The original IPS6041STRLPBF compliance documentation is not specified in the available data.

Q: Is the substitute part available in the same packaging options?

A: The BTS441RGATMA1 is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) and Digi-Reel® packaging. Both parts use the TO-263-5 / D2PAK form factor suitable for surface mount assembly.
