P0080EB Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The P0080EB is a 6V off-state TVS thyristor from Littelfuse's SIDACtor® series, designed for transient voltage suppression applications. This component features a 250 A peak pulse current rating (8/20µs) and is housed in a TO-226-2 package. The P0080EB is classified as obsolete, making identification of active equivalent parts essential for ongoing design support and procurement.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the P0080EB is determined by electrical parameter equivalence and package compatibility. The critical parameters for substitution are:

• Voltage ratings (breakover, off-state, and on-state)
• Peak pulse current ratings (both 8/20µs and 10/1000µs specifications)
• Hold current (Ih)
• Capacitance
• Package type and mounting configuration

The P0080EBL maintains identical electrical specifications and package configuration as the P0080EB, establishing it as a direct equivalent. The primary distinction is product status: P0080EBL is active and available in higher inventory quantities, whereas P0080EB is obsolete.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The P0080EBL is the direct substitute for the P0080EB. Both components share identical electrical characteristics and package specifications. Selection of P0080EBL is supported by:

• Active product status with established supply chain availability
• ROHS3 compliance, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements
• Equivalent electrical performance across all specified parameters
• Identical through-hole mounting configuration and package footprint
• Higher inventory availability (20,100 units versus 722 units)

For new designs or component replacement in existing applications, P0080EBL is the appropriate selection.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can P0080EBL be used as a direct replacement for P0080EB in existing designs?

A: Yes. The P0080EBL is electrically and mechanically identical to the P0080EB. Both components have the same voltage ratings, current ratings, capacitance, and TO-226-2 package configuration. Direct substitution is possible without circuit modification.

Q: What is the primary reason to transition from P0080EB to P0080EBL?

A: The P0080EB is obsolete, while P0080EBL is an active product with reliable supply availability. Additionally, P0080EBL meets ROHS3 compliance requirements, whereas P0080EB does not.

Q: Are the package dimensions identical between P0080EB and P0080EBL?

A: Yes. Both components use the TO-226-2 package (also designated TO-92-2 or TO-226AC), ensuring identical PCB footprint and mounting hole spacing.

Q: What are the critical electrical parameters for substitution?

A: The key parameters are breakover voltage (25V), off-state voltage (6V), on-state voltage (4V), peak pulse current (250A at 8/20µs), and hold current (50mA). P0080EBL matches all these specifications.

Q: Is there a difference in moisture sensitivity between these parts?

A: No. Both P0080EB and P0080EBL have Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity concerns for storage or handling.
