P2304UBTP Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The P2304UBTP is a SIDACtor® Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) thyristor manufactured by Littelfuse Inc., designed for overvoltage protection in surface mount applications. This component features a 6-SMD Gull Wing package with dual voltage ratings (190V/380V off-state, 260V/520V breakover) and peak pulse current handling of 250 A at 8/20µs. The P2304UBTP is classified as obsolete, making identification of active equivalent parts essential for new designs and ongoing production support.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the P2304UBTP is determined by strict equivalence across the following electrical and mechanical parameters:

• Voltage ratings (breakover and off-state): 260V/520V and 190V/380V
• Peak pulse current capacity: 250 A (8/20µs) and 80 A (10/1000µs)
• Hold current: 150 mA
• Number of elements: 4
• Capacitance range: 50pF to 85pF
• Package configuration: 6-SMD, Gull Wing
• Mounting type: Surface Mount

The P2304UBLTP meets all these criteria and serves as a direct electrical and mechanical equivalent. The primary distinction between these parts is packaging format (tube vs. unspecified for the original) and product status (active vs. obsolete).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The P2304UBLTP is the direct substitute for the obsolete P2304UBTP. Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical across all specified parameters. The P2304UBLTP offers the advantage of active product status, ensuring continued availability and supply chain support. Additionally, the P2304UBLTP carries ROHS3 compliance, whereas the original P2304UBTP is RoHS non-compliant. For new designs and production continuity, the P2304UBLTP is the appropriate selection.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are the P2304UBTP and P2304UBLTP electrically interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical specifications including voltage ratings (260V/520V breakover, 190V/380V off-state), peak pulse current (250 A at 8/20µs), hold current (150 mA), and capacitance values (50pF, 85pF).

Q: What is the difference between these two part numbers?

A: The primary differences are packaging format (tube for P2304UBLTP), product status (active vs. obsolete), and RoHS compliance (ROHS3 compliant vs. non-compliant). Electrical and mechanical specifications are identical.

Q: Can I use P2304UBLTP in place of P2304UBTP in existing designs?

A: Yes. The P2304UBLTP is a direct substitute with identical package configuration (6-SMD, Gull Wing), mounting type (surface mount), and all electrical parameters.

Q: Why is the P2304UBTP marked as obsolete?

A: Obsolescence indicates the part is no longer in active production. The P2304UBLTP serves as the active equivalent for continued supply and support.

Q: Does RoHS compliance affect electrical performance?

A: No. RoHS compliance relates to material composition and environmental standards, not electrical function. Both parts perform identically in circuit applications.
