Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the S8KC are identified based on strict electrical and mechanical parameter matching. The primary substitution criteria are:

Electrical Parameters:

• Voltage - DC Reverse (Vr) (Max): 800 V
• Current - Average Rectified (Io): 8 A
• Current - Reverse Leakage @ Vr: 10 µA @ 800 V
• Speed: Standard Recovery >500ns, > 200mA (Io)

Mechanical Parameters:

• Package / Case: DO-214AB, SMC
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount
• Operating Temperature - Junction: -55°C to 150°C

Compliance Parameters:

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

Parts meeting all these criteria are classified as direct substitutes. Variations in secondary parameters such as capacitance or forward voltage do not disqualify substitution when primary electrical and mechanical specifications are matched.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

S8KC (Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation)

The S8KC is the primary reference part and maintains Active product status with full inventory availability (7472 Pcs). This part is ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected, meeting all regulatory requirements for industrial and commercial applications.

S8K_R1_00001 (Panjit International Inc.)

The S8K_R1_00001 is functionally equivalent to the S8KC across all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. Both parts share identical voltage ratings (800 V), current ratings (8 A), reverse leakage characteristics (10 µA @ 800 V), recovery speed specifications, and operating temperature range (-55°C to 150°C). Both are packaged in DO-214AB (SMC) surface mount configuration and maintain Active product status. The S8K_R1_00001 is ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected. Inventory availability for S8K_R1_00001 is 1396 Pcs. The capacitance specification differs (65 pF versus 48 pF @ 4V, 1MHz), which does not affect substitution eligibility for standard rectification applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can S8K_R1_00001 be used as a direct replacement for S8KC?

A: Yes. Both parts meet identical specifications for voltage rating (800 V), current rating (8 A), reverse leakage (10 µA @ 800 V), recovery speed, package type (DO-214AB, SMC), and operating temperature range (-55°C to 150°C). Both are ROHS3 Compliant and maintain Active product status.

Q: Are there differences in capacitance between S8KC and S8K_R1_00001?

A: Yes. S8KC has 48 pF capacitance @ 4V, 1MHz, while S8K_R1_00001 has 65 pF @ 4V, 1MHz. This difference does not affect substitution for general-purpose rectification applications where capacitance is not a critical design parameter.

Q: Do both parts use the same package?

A: Yes. Both S8KC and S8K_R1_00001 use DO-214AB (SMC) surface mount packaging, ensuring mechanical and thermal compatibility on PCB layouts designed for either part.

Q: What is the operating temperature range for these parts?

A: Both parts operate across a junction temperature range of -55°C to 150°C, suitable for industrial and commercial temperature environments.

Q: Are both parts compliant with environmental regulations?

A: Yes. Both S8KC and S8K_R1_00001 are ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected, meeting current environmental and hazardous substance restrictions.

Q: What is the moisture sensitivity level for these diodes?

A: Both parts have Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions during storage and handling.
