S5ML-TP Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The S5ML-TP is a general-purpose rectifier diode manufactured by Micro Commercial Co, rated for 1000 V DC reverse voltage and 5 A average rectified current in a Surface Mount SMC (DO-214AB) package. This component is classified as Active product status and is RoHS3 compliant. Alternative equivalent parts may be required due to inventory availability, packaging format preferences, or specific application performance requirements while maintaining electrical and mechanical compatibility within defined parameter ranges.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the S5ML-TP are qualified based on the following electrical and mechanical parameters:

Primary Substitution Criteria:

• Voltage - DC Reverse (Vr) (Max): Must equal or exceed 1000 V
• Package / Case: Must be DO-214AB, SMC (Surface Mount)
• Mounting Type: Must be Surface Mount
• RoHS Status: Must be ROHS3 Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL): Must be 1 (Unlimited)

Secondary Compatibility Parameters:

• Current - Average Rectified (Io): Rated at 5 A or higher
• Voltage - Forward (Vf) (Max) @ If: Must not exceed 1.2 V @ 5 A for direct substitution
• Current - Reverse Leakage @ Vr: Must not exceed 10 µA @ 1000 V
• Operating Temperature - Junction: Must support -55°C minimum and 150°C maximum

The S5MC-13-F (Diodes Incorporated) qualifies as a full electrical and mechanical equivalent. The STTH310S (STMicroelectronics) is listed as a substitute but operates at reduced current rating (3 A versus 5 A) and exhibits different recovery characteristics.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

S5MC-13-F (Diodes Incorporated): This part is a direct electrical and mechanical equivalent to the S5ML-TP. Both components share identical voltage ratings (1000 V), current ratings (5 A), reverse leakage specifications (10 µA @ 1000 V), and package format (DO-214AB, SMC). The S5MC-13-F exhibits a marginally lower forward voltage drop (1.15 V versus 1.2 V @ 5 A), which represents improved efficiency characteristics. Both parts are ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1 rating. The S5MC-13-F is available in Cut Tape and Digi-Reel® packaging formats, offering alternative procurement options to the Tape & Reel format of the S5ML-TP. This substitute is suitable for direct replacement in applications requiring identical electrical performance and thermal characteristics.

STTH310S (STMicroelectronics): This part is a qualified substitute with important operational differences. The STTH310S maintains the 1000 V reverse voltage rating and identical reverse leakage specification (10 µA @ 1000 V), but operates at a reduced average rectified current rating of 3 A compared to the 5 A rating of the S5ML-TP. The STTH310S exhibits fast recovery characteristics (≤500 ns with 75 ns reverse recovery time) versus the standard recovery profile of the S5ML-TP. Forward voltage drop is higher at 1.7 V @ 3 A. The STTH310S supports an extended operating temperature range (-40°C to 175°C) and is ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1 rating. This substitute is applicable only in applications where the 3 A current requirement is sufficient and where fast recovery characteristics provide circuit performance benefits. Direct substitution is not recommended for circuits designed for the full 5 A current capacity of the S5ML-TP.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the S5MC-13-F be used as a direct replacement for the S5ML-TP?

A: Yes. The S5MC-13-F is electrically and mechanically equivalent to the S5ML-TP. Both components are rated for 1000 V reverse voltage, 5 A average rectified current, and use the DO-214AB SMC package. The primary difference is packaging format: S5MC-13-F is supplied in Cut Tape and Digi-Reel® formats, while S5ML-TP is supplied in Tape & Reel format. Both are ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1 rating.

Q: Is the STTH310S a suitable replacement for the S5ML-TP?

A: The STTH310S is a qualified substitute with operational limitations. It maintains the 1000 V voltage rating and identical reverse leakage characteristics, but the current rating is reduced to 3 A versus the 5 A rating of the S5ML-TP. Substitution is appropriate only for applications where 3 A current capacity is sufficient. The STTH310S exhibits fast recovery characteristics, which may provide benefits in specific circuit topologies but represents a different performance profile than the standard recovery speed of the S5ML-TP.

Q: What are the key electrical parameters that determine substitution compatibility?

A: Substitution compatibility is determined by: (1) Voltage - DC Reverse (Vr) (Max) must equal or exceed 1000 V; (2) Current - Average Rectified (Io) must be rated at 5 A or higher for direct replacement; (3) Voltage - Forward (Vf) (Max) @ If must not exceed 1.2 V @ 5 A; (4) Current - Reverse Leakage @ Vr must not exceed 10 µA @ 1000 V; (5) Package / Case must be DO-214AB, SMC; (6) Mounting Type must be Surface Mount; (7) RoHS Status must be ROHS3 Compliant; (8) Moisture Sensitivity Level must be 1 (Unlimited).

Q: Are there packaging format differences between the substitute parts?

A: Yes. The S5ML-TP is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format. The S5MC-13-F is available in Cut Tape (CT) and Digi-Reel® formats. The STTH310S is available in Cut Tape (CT) and Digi-Reel® formats. All three parts use the same DO-214AB SMC package footprint and are compatible with standard surface mount assembly equipment. Packaging format selection depends on procurement and assembly workflow requirements.

Q: What is the operating temperature range for each part?

A: S5ML-TP operates from -55°C to 150°C junction temperature. S5MC-13-F operates from -65°C to 150°C junction temperature. STTH310S operates from -40°C to 175°C junction temperature. For applications requiring operation below -55°C, the S5MC-13-F provides extended low-temperature capability. For applications requiring operation above 150°C, the STTH310S provides extended high-temperature capability.

Q: Do all substitute parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes. The S5ML-TP, S5MC-13-F, and STTH310S are all ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and classified as MSL 1 (Unlimited moisture sensitivity level). All three parts carry the same ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8541.10.0080) classifications.
