SS36LHE-TP Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The SS36LHE-TP is a Schottky rectifier diode manufactured by Micro Commercial Co, rated for 60V DC reverse voltage and 3A average rectified current in a surface mount SOD-123HE package. This component is classified as obsolete, necessitating identification of active equivalent alternatives for new designs and production continuity. Substitute parts must maintain electrical performance within the specified parameters while offering active product status and current manufacturing availability.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the SS36LHE-TP are identified based on strict electrical and mechanical parameter matching. The primary substitution criteria are:

Electrical Parameters (Must Match):

• Voltage - DC Reverse (Vr) (Max): 60V
• Current - Average Rectified (Io): 3A
• Technology: Schottky
• Speed: Fast Recovery ≤ 500ns, > 200mA (Io)

Mechanical Parameters (Must Match):

• Mounting Type: Surface Mount
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C to 150°C minimum

Compliance Parameters (Must Match):

• RoHS3 Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL): 1 (Unlimited)

Substitute parts are grouped into two categories: parametric equivalents with identical electrical specifications and similar alternatives with acceptable performance variations within the defined operating envelope.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Substitutes (Parametric Equivalents):

SSM3060VHE_R1_00001 and SSM3060VHE-AU_R1_000A1 are parametric equivalents to the SS36LHE-TP. Both parts are manufactured by Panjit International Inc. and maintain active product status. These parts deliver identical forward voltage specifications (500 mV @ 3 A) and matching operating temperature ranges (-55°C to 150°C). The SSM3060VHE-AU_R1_000A1 variant includes automotive-grade qualification (AEC-Q101), suitable for applications requiring automotive compliance. Both parts are supplied in Tape & Reel packaging and are ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1 rating.

Secondary Substitute (Similar Alternative):

RBR3MM60BTR, manufactured by Rohm Semiconductor, is a similar alternative with matching voltage and current ratings. This part exhibits lower reverse leakage current (120 µA @ 60 V) compared to the main part (500 µA @ 60 V), indicating superior leakage performance. The forward voltage specification is higher at 610 mV @ 3 A. The package variant is SOD-123F rather than SOD-123H, requiring physical footprint verification. Operating temperature specification is limited to 150°C maximum without explicit lower temperature rating. This part is active and ROHS3 compliant.

Selection Criteria:

For direct replacement in existing designs, SSM3060VHE_R1_00001 is recommended due to identical electrical specifications and matching SOD-123H package. For automotive applications, SSM3060VHE-AU_R1_000A1 provides AEC-Q101 qualification. RBR3MM60BTR is suitable when lower reverse leakage current is beneficial and package footprint compatibility is confirmed.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can SSM3060VHE_R1_00001 directly replace SS36LHE-TP without circuit modification?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical specifications: 60V reverse voltage, 3A average rectified current, 500 mV forward voltage @ 3A, and matching operating temperature range (-55°C to 150°C). Both use SOD-123H packaging. No circuit modification is required.

Q: What is the difference between SSM3060VHE_R1_00001 and SSM3060VHE-AU_R1_000A1?

A: Both parts are electrically identical with matching specifications. SSM3060VHE-AU_R1_000A1 includes automotive-grade qualification (AEC-Q101) and is supplied in Tape & Reel packaging. Selection depends on application requirements for automotive compliance.

Q: Why does RBR3MM60BTR have a higher forward voltage (610 mV vs 500 mV)?

A: Forward voltage variation is a characteristic difference between manufacturers and process technologies. RBR3MM60BTR operates within acceptable parameters for 60V/3A Schottky diodes. Circuit design must account for this 110 mV difference in power dissipation calculations.

Q: Is the SOD-123F package of RBR3MM60BTR compatible with SOD-123H footprints?

A: SOD-123F and SOD-123H are distinct package variants with different physical dimensions. Footprint compatibility must be verified against PCB design specifications. Direct substitution without layout verification is not recommended.

Q: Are all substitute parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. SS36LHE-TP, SSM3060VHE_R1_00001, SSM3060VHE-AU_R1_000A1, and RBR3MM60BTR are all ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating.

Q: Which substitute part has the lowest reverse leakage current?

A: RBR3MM60BTR exhibits the lowest reverse leakage at 120 µA @ 60V, compared to 220 µA for Panjit parts and 500 µA for the original SS36LHE-TP. Lower leakage reduces standby power consumption in applications with sustained reverse bias.

Q: Can I use RBR3MM60BTR in a design originally specified for SS36LHE-TP?

A: RBR3MM60BTR is electrically compatible for voltage and current ratings. However, verification is required for: (1) PCB footprint compatibility between SOD-123F and SOD-123H packages, (2) circuit tolerance for 110 mV higher forward voltage, and (3) operating temperature requirements, as RBR3MM60BTR specifies 150°C maximum without explicit lower temperature limit.
