SJ6016L2TP Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The SJ6016L2TP is a Silicon Controlled Rectifier (SCR) rated for 600V off-state voltage with 16A RMS on-state current capacity. Manufactured by Littelfuse Inc., this thyristor operates in the standard recovery category and is housed in an ITO-220AB through-hole package. The device maintains active product status with full RoHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating.

Substitute parts are necessary when addressing application requirements for higher current capacity, extended thermal performance, or inventory availability across the SJ and SV series families. All substitute relationships maintain electrical compatibility within the 600V voltage class while accommodating variations in current ratings and thermal characteristics.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution logic for the SJ6016L2TP is based on the following criteria:

Voltage Class Compatibility: All substitute parts maintain 600V off-state voltage rating, ensuring direct electrical compatibility in circuit applications.

Gate Trigger Parameters: Gate trigger voltage (Vgt) and gate trigger current (Igt) remain constant at 1.5V maximum and 10mA maximum across all substitutes, preserving gate drive circuit compatibility.

On-State Characteristics: On-state voltage (Vtm) and hold current (Ih) are identical across all parts at 1.6V maximum and 35mA maximum, respectively.

Current Rating Variations: Substitute parts are grouped by RMS current capacity: 16A (SJ6016L2TP, SV6016L2TP, SV6016L2QTP), 20A (SJ6020L2TP), and 25A (SJ6025L2TP, SV6025L2TP, SV6025L2QTP). Higher current ratings accommodate applications requiring increased thermal headroom or load capacity.

Series Designation: SJ series parts represent standard Littelfuse SCR offerings, while SV series parts provide high-temperature variants within the same electrical specification envelope.

Package Consistency: All substitute parts use identical ITO-220AB through-hole packaging with isolated tab configuration, ensuring mechanical interchangeability.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All substitute parts maintain active product status with ROHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating (MSL 1), ensuring regulatory alignment with the original SJ6016L2TP specification.

For applications requiring identical 16A RMS current capacity, SV6016L2TP and SV6016L2QTP provide direct electrical equivalence with higher inventory availability (1822 and 1952 units respectively) compared to the original part (1097 units).

For applications permitting increased current capacity, SJ6020L2TP (20A RMS) and SJ6025L2TP (25A RMS) offer higher thermal headroom within the same 600V voltage class and identical gate drive characteristics. These higher-rated devices are suitable for designs with margin requirements or future load growth.

SV series parts (SV6016L2TP, SV6016L2QTP, SV6025L2TP, SV6025L2QTP) represent high-temperature variants maintaining identical electrical specifications and operating temperature range (-40°C to 150°C) as the SJ series, with no thermal performance differentiation in the provided parameters.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can SJ6020L2TP or SJ6025L2TP be used as direct replacements for SJ6016L2TP?

A: Yes. Both parts maintain identical 600V off-state voltage, gate trigger parameters (1.5V Vgt, 10mA Igt), on-state voltage (1.6V Vtm), and hold current (35mA Ih). The higher RMS current ratings (20A and 25A respectively) provide additional capacity without affecting gate drive circuit compatibility or electrical behavior at the original 16A operating point.

Q: What is the difference between SJ and SV series parts?

A: Within the provided specifications, SJ and SV series parts maintain identical electrical parameters, operating temperature range (-40°C to 150°C), and package configuration (ITO-220AB). Series designation reflects Littelfuse product line categorization; both series are active products with full RoHS3 compliance.

Q: Are SV6016L2TP and SV6016L2QTP electrically identical?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical specifications: 600V off-state voltage, 1.5V Vgt, 10mA Igt, 1.6V Vtm, 16A RMS current, and 35mA hold current. The "Q" designation in SV6016L2QTP reflects packaging or supplier variant classification without electrical differentiation.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably in the same PCB layout?

A: Yes. All substitute parts use identical ITO-220AB through-hole packaging with isolated tab configuration, ensuring mechanical and thermal interface compatibility without PCB redesign.

Q: What inventory considerations apply to part selection?

A: Current stock levels range from 1097 to 1952 units across the substitute family. SV6016L2QTP maintains the highest availability (1952 units) for 16A applications, while SJ6025L2TP (1393 units) and SV6025L2TP (1883 units) provide highest availability for 25A applications.
