P6002ACMC Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The P6002ACMC is a Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) thyristor manufactured by Littelfuse Inc. under the SIDACtor® series. This component is designed for overvoltage protection applications, featuring dual-element configuration with 275V/550V off-state voltage ratings and 400A peak pulse current capability in a 3-SIP TO-220 Modified package. The P6002ACMC is classified as obsolete, making identification of active equivalent parts essential for new designs and ongoing system support.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the P6002ACMC is determined by electrical and mechanical parameter equivalence. The following criteria establish direct substitutability:

• Voltage ratings (breakover and off-state) must match exactly: 350V/700V breakover and 275V/550V off-state
• Peak pulse current capability must meet or exceed 400A (8/20µs) and 100A (10/1000µs)
• Hold current (Ih) must be 150 mA
• Number of elements must be 2
• Capacitance range must be 25pF to 45pF
• Package configuration must be 3-SIP with Through Hole mounting
• Supplier device package must be TO-220 Modified

The P6002ACMCL satisfies all these criteria and is therefore a direct electrical and mechanical equivalent.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The P6002ACMCL is the direct active equivalent for the obsolete P6002ACMC. All electrical parameters and mechanical specifications are identical. The primary distinction is product status and regulatory compliance: the P6002ACMCL is currently in active production and carries ROHS3 compliance certification, whereas the P6002ACMC is obsolete and RoHS non-compliant.

For new designs and system replacements, the P6002ACMCL is the appropriate selection. Both parts share identical voltage ratings, current handling capabilities, and package configuration, ensuring direct functional interchangeability in circuit applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the P6002ACMCL directly replace the P6002ACMC in existing designs?

A: Yes. The P6002ACMCL is electrically and mechanically identical to the P6002ACMC. All voltage ratings, current specifications, and package dimensions are equivalent. The primary difference is product status and RoHS compliance.

Q: What is the significance of the product status difference?

A: The P6002ACMC is classified as obsolete, indicating it is no longer manufactured or supported by Littelfuse Inc. The P6002ACMCL is in active production, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity.

Q: Does the RoHS3 compliance of the P6002ACMCL affect compatibility?

A: No. RoHS3 compliance indicates the P6002ACMCL meets environmental and material restriction standards. This does not alter electrical performance or mechanical fit. The compliance status makes the P6002ACMCL suitable for applications with regulatory requirements that the obsolete P6002ACMC cannot satisfy.

Q: Are the packaging options different between these parts?

A: Both parts are supplied in 3-SIP TO-220 Modified packages with Through Hole mounting. Packaging configuration is identical.

Q: What is the difference between bulk and standard packaging?

A: The P6002ACMCL is supplied in bulk packaging, while the P6002ACMC packaging type is not specified. Bulk packaging typically refers to loose component quantities without individual component packaging. This does not affect electrical or mechanical specifications.
