Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the P4SMA5.0A TR13 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Voltage - Reverse Standoff: 5V
• Voltage - Breakdown (Min): 6.4V
• Voltage - Clamping (Max) @ Ipp: 9.2V
• Current - Peak Pulse (10/1000µs): 44.6A
• Power - Peak Pulse: 400W
• Type: Zener (unidirectional)
• Package / Case: DO-214AC, SMA
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C ~ 150°C (TJ)

The SMAJ5.0A-13-F from Diodes Incorporated meets all specified electrical and mechanical parameters, providing direct functional equivalence for the obsolete P4SMA5.0A TR13.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The SMAJ5.0A-13-F is the qualified substitute for the P4SMA5.0A TR13. Selection is based on the following factors:

• Electrical parameter equivalence across all critical specifications
• Active product status ensuring ongoing availability and supply chain support
• RoHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, meeting current regulatory requirements
• Identical package and mounting specifications (DO-214AC, SMA surface mount)
• Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited), matching the original component

The transition from the obsolete P4SMA5.0A TR13 to the SMAJ5.0A-13-F requires no circuit modifications and maintains full functional compatibility.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the SMAJ5.0A-13-F be used as a direct replacement for the P4SMA5.0A TR13?

A: Yes. The SMAJ5.0A-13-F meets all electrical and mechanical specifications of the P4SMA5.0A TR13, including voltage ratings, current handling, package type, and operating temperature range. No circuit design changes are required.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between the original and substitute part?

A: The SMAJ5.0A-13-F carries active RoHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, providing enhanced regulatory alignment compared to the obsolete P4SMA5.0A TR13.

Q: What is the package compatibility between these parts?

A: Both components use the DO-214AC (SMA) surface-mount package with identical pinout and footprint. PCB layout modifications are not necessary.

Q: Are there any thermal or environmental considerations for substitution?

A: Both parts operate across the same temperature range (-55°C to 150°C junction temperature) and share identical Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 ratings, ensuring equivalent performance in equivalent environmental conditions.

Q: What is the availability difference between these parts?

A: The P4SMA5.0A TR13 is obsolete with limited remaining inventory. The SMAJ5.0A-13-F is an active product with established supply chain availability, making it the recommended choice for new designs and ongoing production.
