Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MBR1640CT-BP is designated as obsolete. For replacement purposes, the substitute part MBR1645CT-BP maintains REACH unaffected status and shares the same compliance profile. Both parts use identical mechanical packaging standards and mounting types. Selection should be based on product status and compliance equivalence within inventory and procurement requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What parameters must match for correct substitution in diode array rectifiers?
A1: Substitute selection must match diode configuration, technology, maximum DC reverse voltage, average rectified current per diode, forward voltage rating at operational current, speed classification, reverse leakage characteristics, operating temperature range, mounting type, package/case, and compliance status.

Q2: Is package compatibility maintained between MBR1640CT-BP and MBR1645CT-BP?
A2: Yes, both models use the TO-220-3 case and TO-220AB supplier device package, supporting direct mechanical substitution.

Q3: Is the substitute part compliant with the same REACH and ECCN standards?
A3: The MBR1645CT-BP retains REACH unaffected status and EAR99 ECCN classification, matching the compliance requirements of the original part.

Q4: Can reverse voltage and forward voltage differences impact substitution?
A4: Substitute parts are listed only if the maximum DC reverse voltage and forward voltage at operating currents align within allowed parameters for the product category.

Q5: Does the substitute maintain matching operating temperature ratings and mounting type?
A5: Both main and substitute parts support an operating junction temperature of -55°C to 150°C and through-hole mounting, ensuring compatibility for engineering replacement.
