S8010LTP Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The S8010LTP is a Silicon Controlled Rectifier (SCR) manufactured by Littelfuse Inc., rated for 800V off-state voltage with a 10A RMS on-state current rating. This thyristor is designed for standard recovery applications in through-hole TO-220AB-L packaging. The part is currently active in production with full RoHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1). Substitute parts are identified based on matching electrical characteristics and mechanical compatibility within the 800V voltage class while accommodating different current ratings.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the S8010LTP are qualified based on the following criteria:

  • Voltage Class Match: All substitutes maintain 800V off-state voltage rating, ensuring compatibility in circuits designed for this voltage level.
  • Gate Trigger Characteristics: Vgt (Max) and Igt (Max) remain constant at 1.5V and 15mA respectively across all parts, ensuring gate drive circuit compatibility.
  • On-State Voltage: Vtm (Max) is held at 1.6V across all parts, maintaining consistent forward voltage drop characteristics.
  • Hold Current: Ih (Max) remains at 30mA, preserving latching behavior.
  • Off-State Leakage: Maximum off-state current is 10µA for all parts.
  • SCR Type and Recovery Characteristics: All parts are Standard Recovery thyristors with identical non-repetitive surge current ratings (83A at 50Hz, 100A at 60Hz).
  • Temperature Range: Operating temperature range of -40°C to 125°C is consistent across all parts.
  • Mounting and Packaging: All parts use through-hole mounting in TO-220-3 Isolated Tab configuration.
  • Compliance: All parts maintain ROHS3 compliance, MSL 1 rating, and REACH Unaffected status.

Current Rating Variation: Substitute parts differ in their on-state current ratings (RMS), ranging from 6A to 10A. Selection depends on circuit current requirements.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Selection among S8010LTP, S8006LTP, and S8008LTP is determined by circuit current requirements:

  • S8010LTP (10A RMS): Select when circuit design requires maximum current capacity at 800V. Suitable for high-power switching applications within the 10A RMS envelope.
  • S8008LTP (8A RMS): Select for applications requiring 8A RMS current handling. Provides intermediate current rating between 6A and 10A options.
  • S8006LTP (6A RMS): Select for applications with current requirements up to 6A RMS. Lowest current rating in the substitution group.

All three parts maintain identical gate trigger characteristics, on-state voltage, hold current, and off-state leakage specifications. All parts are active products with full RoHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating. Selection is based solely on matching the circuit's maximum continuous current requirement to the part's It (RMS) rating.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can S8006LTP replace S8010LTP in any application?

A: S8006LTP is a substitute only for applications where circuit current does not exceed 6A RMS. The 6A RMS rating of S8006LTP is lower than the 10A RMS rating of S8010LTP. Use S8006LTP only when the application's maximum continuous current requirement is 6A RMS or less.

Q: Are the gate drive requirements identical across all three parts?

A: Yes. All three parts (S8010LTP, S8008LTP, S8006LTP) have identical gate trigger voltage (Vgt Max = 1.5V) and gate trigger current (Igt Max = 15mA) specifications. Gate drive circuits designed for one part are compatible with all three.

Q: Do all parts use the same package?

A: All parts use TO-220-3 Isolated Tab configuration for through-hole mounting. S8010LTP and S8006LTP are supplied in TO-220AB-L packaging, while S8008LTP is supplied in TO-220 Isolated Tab packaging. Physical footprint compatibility is maintained across all three parts.

Q: What is the maximum surge current for these parts?

A: All three parts have identical non-repetitive surge current ratings: 83A at 50Hz and 100A at 60Hz. Surge current capacity is independent of the RMS current rating.

Q: Are there temperature or compliance differences between these parts?

A: No. All three parts operate across -40°C to 125°C, maintain ROHS3 compliance, have MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating, and are REACH Unaffected. Compliance and environmental specifications are identical.

Q: Can I use S8010LTP in place of S8006LTP?

A: S8010LTP can be used in applications designed for S8006LTP, provided the circuit can accommodate the higher current rating. All electrical characteristics match; the S8010LTP simply provides higher current capacity.
