SMF60A-T13 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The SMF60A-T13 is a unidirectional Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diode manufactured by Littelfuse Inc., designed for general-purpose overvoltage protection applications. This surface-mount component operates with a 60V reverse standoff voltage and provides clamping at 96.8V maximum, making it suitable for protecting sensitive circuits from transient voltage events. The part is currently in active production status with 714 units available in inventory. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical specifications and mechanical compatibility are maintained across the same package type and performance envelope.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the SMF60A-T13 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Voltage - Reverse Standoff: 60V (typical)
• Voltage - Breakdown (Min): 66.7V
• Voltage - Clamping (Max) @ Ipp: 96.8V
• Current - Peak Pulse (10/1000µs): 1.8A
• Power - Peak Pulse: 200W
• Package / Case: SOD-123F
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount
• Type: Zener, Unidirectional (1 channel)

The SMF60A-TP manufactured by Micro Commercial Co meets all electrical specifications and mechanical requirements, maintaining identical voltage ratings, peak pulse current, and power dissipation characteristics within the same SOD-123F surface-mount package footprint.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the SMF60A-T13 and SMF60A-TP are active production components with identical electrical performance specifications and mechanical compatibility. Selection between these parts may be based on inventory availability, lead time, or supply chain requirements. The SMF60A-T13 (Littelfuse) currently has 714 units in stock, while the SMF60A-TP (Micro Commercial Co) has 3306 units available. Both components maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, meeting current regulatory requirements for electronic component manufacturing and use.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can SMF60A-TP be used as a direct replacement for SMF60A-T13?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically equivalent, with identical voltage ratings (60V standoff, 96.8V clamping), peak pulse current (1.8A), power dissipation (200W), and SOD-123F package specifications. They are functionally interchangeable in circuit applications.

Q: Are there differences in operating temperature ranges between these parts?

A: The SMF60A-T13 operates from -55°C to 150°C (TJ), while the SMF60A-TP operates from -65°C to 175°C (TA). The SMF60A-TP provides a wider operating temperature envelope. Application requirements determine whether this difference is relevant to your design.

Q: Do both parts use the same package footprint?

A: Yes. Both components use the SOD-123F surface-mount package with identical mechanical dimensions and land pattern compatibility for PCB assembly.

Q: Are there any compliance or certification differences?

A: No. Both parts are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting equivalent regulatory standards for electronic component use.

Q: What is the difference between the packaging designations TR (Tape & Reel)?

A: Both parts are supplied in Tape & Reel format suitable for automated assembly processes. The SMF60A-T13 uses SOD-123F supplier device packaging, while the SMF60A-TP uses SOD-123FL. These designations refer to the same physical package with identical footprint and performance characteristics.
