SA100CA B0G Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The SA100CA B0G is a Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diode manufactured by Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation, designed for general-purpose voltage protection applications. This component features a 100V reverse standoff voltage with a 162V maximum clamping voltage and 3.2A peak pulse current capability in a through-hole DO-204AC (DO-15) axial package.

The SA100CA B0G is currently discontinued at DiGi Electronics. Identifying equivalent and substitute parts is necessary to maintain design continuity, ensure component availability, and support ongoing production requirements. Substitute parts must maintain identical electrical performance and mechanical compatibility to ensure direct replacement without circuit redesign.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the SA100CA B0G are identified based on strict electrical and mechanical parameter matching within the TVS diode category. The substitution logic requires that alternative components maintain:

Critical Matching Parameters:

• Voltage - Reverse Standoff (Typ): 100V
• Voltage - Breakdown (Min): 111V
• Voltage - Clamping (Max) @ Ipp: 162V
• Current - Peak Pulse (10/1000µs): 3.2A
• Power - Peak Pulse: 500W
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C to 175°C (TJ)
• Mounting Type: Through Hole
• Package / Case: DO-204AC, DO-15, Axial
• Type: Zener
• Bidirectional Channels: 1

Parts meeting all these criteria are classified as direct substitutes and can be used interchangeably in the same circuit application without modification.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The SA100CA A0G is a direct substitute for the SA100CA B0G. Both components are manufactured by Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation and share identical electrical specifications and mechanical packaging. The SA100CA A0G maintains active product status, whereas the SA100CA B0G is discontinued at DiGi Electronics.
