Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the RL205GP-TP are qualified based on the following electrical and mechanical parameters:

Electrical Equivalence Criteria:

• Voltage - DC Reverse (Vr) (Max): 600 V
• Current - Average Rectified (Io): 2 A
• Voltage - Forward (Vf) (Max) @ If: 1 V @ 2 A
• Speed: Standard Recovery >500ns, > 200mA (Io)
• Current - Reverse Leakage @ Vr: 5 µA @ 600 V

Mechanical Compatibility Criteria:

• Mounting Type: Through Hole
• Package / Case: DO-204AC, DO-15, Axial
• Operating Temperature - Junction: -55°C to 150°C

Regulatory Compliance Criteria:

• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant
• REACH Status: REACH Unaffected
• Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL): 1 (Unlimited)

The substitute parts 2A05G and 2A05GH, both manufactured by Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation, meet all electrical and mechanical equivalence criteria. Both parts maintain identical voltage, current, and thermal specifications while supporting the same through-hole axial package format.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

RL205GP-TP (Primary Part): Suitable for general-purpose applications requiring 600 V, 2 A rectification. Active product status with ROHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating. Tape & Reel packaging format.

2A05G (Substitute): Parametrically equivalent to RL205GP-TP with identical electrical specifications and thermal operating range. ROHS3 and REACH compliant. Available in Cut Tape packaging. Capacitance specification is 15 pF versus 20 pF on primary part, remaining within acceptable tolerance for general-purpose rectification applications.

2A05GH (Substitute - Automotive Grade): Parametrically equivalent to RL205GP-TP with identical electrical specifications and thermal operating range. Includes AEC-Q101 automotive qualification and Automotive grade designation. ROHS3 and REACH compliant. Available in Cut Tape packaging. Suitable for applications requiring automotive-grade component certification. Capacitance specification is 15 pF versus 20 pF on primary part, remaining within acceptable tolerance for general-purpose rectification applications.

Selection between substitute parts depends on packaging format requirements (Tape & Reel versus Cut Tape) and automotive qualification necessity. All three parts maintain electrical and thermal equivalence for direct substitution in circuit applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 2A05G and 2A05GH be used interchangeably with RL205GP-TP?

A: Yes. Both substitute parts meet all electrical equivalence criteria: 600 V reverse voltage, 2 A average rectified current, 1 V forward voltage at 2 A, standard recovery speed, and 5 µA reverse leakage current. All three parts support through-hole axial mounting in DO-15 package format and operate across -55°C to 150°C junction temperature range.

Q: What is the difference between 2A05G and 2A05GH?

A: Both parts are electrically and mechanically equivalent. The 2A05GH includes AEC-Q101 automotive qualification and Automotive grade designation, making it suitable for applications requiring automotive-grade component certification. The 2A05G is standard grade without automotive qualification.

Q: Does the capacitance difference between RL205GP-TP (20 pF) and the substitute parts (15 pF) affect substitution?

A: No. The capacitance difference of 5 pF at 4 V, 1 MHz does not prevent substitution for general-purpose rectification applications. Both values fall within acceptable operating parameters for standard recovery diodes in this voltage and current class.

Q: Are packaging format differences between Tape & Reel and Cut Tape significant?

A: Packaging format differences affect handling, storage, and assembly processes but do not impact electrical or mechanical performance. Selection depends on manufacturing and assembly requirements. Both formats maintain identical component specifications.

Q: Do all three parts comply with environmental and regulatory standards?

A: Yes. RL205GP-TP, 2A05G, and 2A05GH are all ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating. All parts are suitable for applications with equivalent environmental and regulatory requirements.

Q: Can 2A05GH be used in non-automotive applications?

A: Yes. The 2A05GH automotive qualification is an additional certification that does not restrict use in non-automotive applications. It remains electrically and mechanically equivalent to RL205GP-TP and 2A05G for all general-purpose rectification applications.
