Engineering Selection Recommendations

Direct Equivalent (Preferred):

MBR160RLG is the direct active equivalent manufactured by onsemi. This part maintains identical electrical specifications to the MBR160RL while offering active product status and ROHS3 compliance. The MBR160RLG is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) packaging format with 16,700 units in stock inventory.

Primary Substitutes (Fully Compatible):

SB160-E3/54 (Vishay), SB160-T (Diodes Incorporated), and SB160E-G (Comchip Technology) are functionally equivalent alternatives. All three parts meet the 60 V, 1 A electrical specifications with fast recovery characteristics and operate across the -65°C to 150°C temperature range. These parts carry active product status and ROHS3 compliance. Forward voltage characteristics range from 650 mV to 700 mV, which is within acceptable operating parameters.

Secondary Substitutes (Temperature-Dependent):

SR106 R1G (Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation), SR106-AP, SR106-BP, and SR106-TP (Micro Commercial Co) are suitable for applications where the minimum operating temperature requirement does not exceed -55°C. These parts maintain all critical electrical parameters but have a reduced lower temperature limit of -55°C compared to the original -65°C specification.

Alternative with Enhanced Performance:

STPS1L60RL (STMicroelectronics) offers superior reverse leakage characteristics (50 µA @ 60 V versus 500 µA @ 60 V) and lower forward voltage drop (570 mV @ 1 A). This part is suitable for applications requiring reduced power dissipation or lower leakage current. The minimum operating temperature is -55°C.

Compliance Considerations:

All recommended substitutes carry ROHS3 compliance or have compliance status not specified. The original MBR160RL is RoHS non-compliant. For applications requiring RoHS compliance, MBR160RLG, SB160-E3/54, SB160-T, SB160E-G, SR106 R1G, and STPS1L60RL are appropriate selections.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can MBR160RLG be used as a direct replacement for MBR160RL?

A: Yes. MBR160RLG is manufactured by onsemi and maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications to MBR160RL. The primary differences are active product status and ROHS3 compliance. Both parts are rated for 60 V, 1 A with 750 mV forward voltage drop and operate across -65°C to 150°C.

Q: What is the difference between the various SR106 part numbers (R1G, AP, BP, TP)?

A: All SR106 variants meet the same electrical specifications (60 V, 1 A, 700 mV forward voltage). The differences are in packaging format and temperature range. SR106 R1G operates from -55°C to 150°C. SR106-AP and SR106-BP are supplied in Bulk packaging and operate from -55°C to 125°C. SR106-TP is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format and operates from -55°C to 125°C.

Q: Are there any electrical differences between SB160-E3/54, SB160-T, and SB160E-G?

A: All three parts meet the 60 V, 1 A core specifications. Forward voltage varies slightly: SB160-E3/54 is rated at 650 mV @ 1 A, while SB160-T and SB160E-G are rated at 700 mV @ 1 A. All three operate across -65°C to 150°C and carry ROHS3 compliance.

Q: Why does STPS1L60RL have different reverse leakage specifications?

A: STPS1L60RL is manufactured by STMicroelectronics using different process technology. The part exhibits 50 µA reverse leakage @ 60 V compared to 500 µA for other substitutes. This lower leakage characteristic results in reduced power dissipation in standby conditions and may be beneficial for battery-powered or low-power applications.

Q: Can I use SR106-AP or SR106-BP in applications requiring -65°C operation?

A: No. SR106-AP and SR106-BP are rated for minimum operating temperature of -55°C. For applications requiring -65°C operation, use MBR160RLG, SB160-E3/54, SB160-T, SB160E-G, or STPS1L60RL.

SR106 R1G packaging format is not specified. SR106-AP and SR106-BP are supplied in Bulk. SR106-TP is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR). STPS1L60RL is supplied in Cut Tape (CT). Verify packaging requirements for your procurement process.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS compliant?

A: ROHS3 compliance is confirmed for MBR160RLG, SB160-E3/54, SB160-T, SB160E-G, SR106 R1G, SR106-TP, and STPS1L60RL. RoHS status is not specified for SR106-AP and SR106-BP. Verify compliance documentation with your supplier if RoHS certification is required.
