P0080SAMC Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The P0080SAMC is a 6V off-state TVS thyristor from Littelfuse Inc.'s SIDACtor® series, designed for transient voltage suppression applications. Housed in a DO-214AA (SMB) surface mount package, this component provides 150 A peak pulse current capability at 8/20µs pulse width. The part is currently listed as obsolete, necessitating identification of active equivalent components to maintain design continuity and ensure supply chain availability for new production and field replacements.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the P0080SAMC is determined by electrical and mechanical parameter equivalence within the TVS thyristor category. The following parameters establish substitution validity:

• Voltage ratings (breakover, off-state, and on-state) must match exactly
• Peak pulse current ratings at both 8/20µs and 10/1000µs pulse widths must be identical
• Hold current (Ih) must be equivalent
• Capacitance must match
• Package type (DO-214AA, SMB) and mounting configuration (surface mount) must be identical
• Number of elements must be the same

The P0080SAMCLRP meets all substitution criteria as a direct electrical and mechanical equivalent, differing only in packaging format (tape & reel versus bulk) and product status (active versus obsolete).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The P0080SAMCLRP is the direct substitute for the obsolete P0080SAMC. Selection of P0080SAMCLRP is based on the following engineering factors:

• All electrical parameters are identical, ensuring functional equivalence in transient voltage suppression applications
• The component maintains the same DO-214AA (SMB) package footprint and surface mount configuration, allowing direct PCB placement without layout modification
• P0080SAMCLRP holds active product status, ensuring continued availability and supply chain support
• P0080SAMCLRP is ROHS3 compliant, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements, whereas the original P0080SAMC is RoHS non-compliant
• The tape & reel packaging format of P0080SAMCLRP is standard for automated assembly processes in modern manufacturing environments

For applications requiring the original bulk packaging format, component procurement should specify P0080SAMCLRP with appropriate packaging conversion or reel-to-bulk repackaging services through authorized distributors.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can P0080SAMCLRP be used as a direct replacement for P0080SAMC in existing designs?

A: Yes. P0080SAMCLRP is electrically and mechanically identical to P0080SAMC. All voltage ratings, current ratings, capacitance, and package specifications match exactly. The component can be substituted without circuit redesign or PCB layout modification.

Q: What is the difference between P0080SAMC and P0080SAMCLRP?

A: The primary differences are product status, RoHS compliance, and packaging format. P0080SAMC is obsolete and RoHS non-compliant, supplied in bulk packaging. P0080SAMCLRP is active, ROHS3 compliant, and supplied in tape & reel format. Electrical and mechanical specifications are identical.

Q: Is the tape & reel packaging of P0080SAMCLRP compatible with automated assembly equipment?

A: Yes. Tape & reel packaging is the standard format for automated surface mount assembly. P0080SAMCLRP in tape & reel format is compatible with standard pick-and-place equipment and reflow soldering processes.

Q: Does the RoHS3 compliance of P0080SAMCLRP affect circuit performance compared to the non-compliant P0080SAMC?

A: No. RoHS3 compliance indicates material composition standards and environmental responsibility. It does not alter electrical performance, voltage ratings, current ratings, or functional characteristics of the TVS thyristor.

Q: Are there any other equivalent parts from other manufacturers for this application?

A: This reference covers only the substitute parts explicitly provided. For additional equivalent options from other manufacturers, consult the component manufacturer's cross-reference documentation or contact authorized distributors.
