Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the P0720ECRP2 is determined by electrical and mechanical parameter equivalence. The critical parameters defining substitutability are:

• Voltage - Off State: 65V
• Voltage - Breakover: 88V
• Voltage - On State: 4V
• Current - Peak Pulse (8/20µs): 400A
• Current - Peak Pulse (10/1000µs): 100A
• Current - Hold (Ih): 150mA
• Capacitance: 150pF
• Package / Case: TO-226-2, TO-92-2 (TO-226AC)
• Mounting Type: Through Hole

The P0720ECLRP2 meets all electrical specifications and mechanical requirements, differing only in packaging format (Tape & Reel versus individual packaging) and product status (Active versus Obsolete).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The P0720ECLRP2 is the direct substitute for the P0720ECRP2. All electrical and mechanical parameters are identical. The P0720ECLRP2 is classified as Active product status, ensuring continued availability and supply chain support. The P0720ECLRP2 is ROHS3 compliant, whereas the P0720ECRP2 is RoHS non-compliant. Selection of the P0720ECLRP2 is appropriate for applications requiring current production components and regulatory compliance with RoHS3 standards. The packaging difference (Tape & Reel for P0720ECLRP2 versus standard packaging for P0720ECRP2) does not affect electrical or mechanical performance and is determined by procurement and assembly requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the P0720ECLRP2 replace the P0720ECRP2 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The P0720ECLRP2 is electrically and mechanically equivalent to the P0720ECRP2. All voltage ratings, current specifications, capacitance, and package dimensions are identical. The components are pin-compatible and functionally interchangeable.

Q: What is the difference between P0720ECRP2 and P0720ECLRP2?

A: The primary differences are product status and packaging format. The P0720ECRP2 is obsolete and supplied in standard packaging. The P0720ECLRP2 is an active product supplied in Tape & Reel format. Both components share identical electrical specifications and the same TO-226-2 package.

Q: Does the Tape & Reel packaging of the P0720ECLRP2 affect performance?

A: No. Tape & Reel packaging is a supply format used for automated assembly processes. It does not alter the electrical characteristics, thermal performance, or reliability of the component. The device itself remains unchanged.

Q: Is the P0720ECLRP2 RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The P0720ECLRP2 is ROHS3 compliant. The P0720ECRP2 is RoHS non-compliant. If RoHS compliance is required, the P0720ECLRP2 is the appropriate selection.

Q: Are there any other substitute parts for the P0720ECRP2?

A: Based on the provided specifications, the P0720ECLRP2 is the documented substitute. Both parts are manufactured by Littelfuse Inc. in the SIDACtor® series with identical electrical and mechanical parameters.
