Engineering Selection Recommendations
Selection between SMBJ4742A/TR13 and substitute 1SMB5927B-13 may be based on product status and compliance documentation. Main distinction is RoHS status: SMBJ4742A/TR13 is RoHS non-compliant, while 1SMB5927B-13 is ROHS3 compliant. Both parts are active with identical Zener voltage, tolerance, mounting type, and package. Only the substitute maintains ROHS3 compliance. Both components have Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited) and REACH unaffected status.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: What are the primary criteria for substituting SMBJ4742A/TR13 with 1SMB5927B-13?
A: Substitution is based on matching Zener voltage (12 V), tolerance (±5%), case/package (DO-214AA, SMB), mounting type, and operating temperature range.
Q: Does the difference in RoHS compliance affect substitution?
A: SMBJ4742A/TR13 is RoHS non-compliant. If RoHS compliance is mandatory, only ROHS3 compliant substitutes like 1SMB5927B-13 are selectable.
Q: Are both parts suitable for surface mount applications?
A: Yes, both SMBJ4742A/TR13 and 1SMB5927B-13 support surface mount in DO-214AA, SMB packaging.
Q: Do these substitutes have the same operating temperature range?
A: Yes, both devices specify an operating temperature range of -65°C to +150°C.
Q: Is the power rating identical between the main and substitute part?
A: SMBJ4742A/TR13 supports 2 W. Substitute 1SMB5927B-13 provides 550 mW. Only select substitutes that meet system power dissipation requirements.
Q: Are the Moisture Sensitivity Levels compatible?
A: Both products are rated at Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited), supporting unrestricted mounting and handling in standard manufacturing.
