P2202ABRP Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The P2202ABRP is a SIDACtor® thyristor transient voltage suppressor manufactured by Littelfuse Inc., designed for 90V/180V off-state voltage applications with 250A peak pulse current capability in a 3-SIP TO-220 Modified package. This part is classified as obsolete, making equivalent substitutes necessary for ongoing production and maintenance applications. The electrical and mechanical specifications remain consistent across available alternatives, with primary differences in product status and packaging configuration.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the P2202ABRP is determined by strict equivalence across the following electrical and mechanical parameters:

• Voltage ratings (Off-State: 90V, 180V; Breakover: 130V, 260V; On-State: 4V)
• Current specifications (Peak Pulse 8/20µs: 250A; Peak Pulse 10/1000µs: 80A; Hold Current: 150mA)
• Element count (2 elements)
• Capacitance values (65pF, 115pF)
• Physical package (3-SIP, TO-220 Modified, Through Hole mounting)

All substitute parts listed maintain identical electrical performance and mechanical compatibility. Differences are limited to product status (Active vs. Obsolete) and packaging format (Bulk vs. Tape & Reel).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For applications currently using the P2202ABRP, transition to active production parts is necessary due to obsolete status. Both P2202ABL and P2202ABLRP provide identical electrical and mechanical performance.

P2202ABL (Bulk packaging) is suitable for applications requiring standard component quantities and manual assembly processes. This part maintains ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status.

P2202ABLRP (Tape & Reel packaging) is appropriate for automated assembly operations and high-volume production environments. This configuration also maintains ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, with the added benefit of standardized reel handling for pick-and-place equipment.

The selection between P2202ABL and P2202ABLRP should be based solely on assembly methodology and production volume requirements, as electrical performance and compliance certifications are equivalent.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can P2202ABL or P2202ABLRP be used as direct replacements for P2202ABRP?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical to the P2202ABRP across all specified parameters including voltage ratings, current ratings, element count, capacitance, and physical package configuration.

Q: What is the difference between P2202ABL and P2202ABLRP?

A: The primary difference is packaging format. P2202ABL is supplied in Bulk packaging, while P2202ABLRP is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format. Electrical specifications and compliance certifications are identical.

Q: Why is the P2202ABRP classified as obsolete?

A: The P2202ABRP has reached end-of-life status. Active equivalent parts (P2202ABL and P2202ABLRP) are available from Littelfuse Inc. with identical performance characteristics.

Q: Are there RoHS compliance differences between the substitute parts and the original?

A: Yes. The P2202ABRP is RoHS non-compliant, while both P2202ABL and P2202ABLRP are ROHS3 compliant. This represents an improvement in environmental compliance for new designs and production runs.

Q: Which substitute part should be selected for automated assembly?

A: P2202ABLRP (Tape & Reel format) is designed for automated pick-and-place assembly operations. P2202ABL (Bulk format) is suitable for manual assembly or lower-volume applications.

Q: Are the pin configurations identical across all three parts?

A: Yes. All three parts use the 3-SIP TO-220 Modified package with identical pin configuration and through-hole mounting compatibility.
