Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the TGL41-24-E3/97 is determined by electrical and mechanical compatibility within the following parameters:

Critical Substitution Criteria:

• Package / Case: DO-213AB, MELF (surface mount, same footprint)
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount
• Type: Zener, Unidirectional (single channel protection)
• Voltage - Reverse Standoff: Within acceptable tolerance of 19.4V nominal
• Voltage - Clamping (Max) @ Ipp: Within acceptable tolerance of 34.7V nominal
• Current - Peak Pulse (10/1000µs): Minimum 11.5A capability
• Power - Peak Pulse: 400W rating
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C ~ 150°C (TJ)
• RoHS Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant
• Series: TransZorb® (same product family)

The substitute part TGL41-24A-E3/97 meets all mechanical and electrical compatibility requirements for direct substitution.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The TGL41-24A-E3/97 is the direct substitute for the obsolete TGL41-24-E3/97. Both components share identical mechanical compatibility (DO-213AB MELF package, surface mount), equivalent electrical performance within the TVS diode application envelope, and full compliance with ROHS3 and REACH requirements.

The substitute part offers the advantage of active product status, ensuring continued availability and manufacturing support. Electrical parameters remain within acceptable tolerance for general-purpose transient voltage suppression applications. Both components maintain identical operating temperature ranges and moisture sensitivity classifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can TGL41-24A-E3/97 be used as a direct replacement for TGL41-24-E3/97?

A: Yes. Both components are housed in identical DO-213AB MELF surface mount packages with matching footprints. Electrical parameters are within acceptable tolerance for TVS diode applications. The substitute part is currently in active production status.

Q: What are the key electrical differences between these parts?

A: The TGL41-24A-E3/97 has a slightly higher reverse standoff voltage (20.5V vs. 19.4V) and breakdown voltage (22.8V vs. 21.6V), with a marginally lower clamping voltage (33.2V vs. 34.7V). Peak pulse current capability is slightly higher (12A vs. 11.5A). These variations remain within the operational tolerance of the TVS diode category.

Q: Are there any packaging or handling differences?

A: The substitute part is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging, whereas the original part number does not specify packaging format. Both components maintain identical Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) classification of 1 (Unlimited), requiring no special moisture control during storage or handling.

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both TGL41-24-E3/97 and TGL41-24A-E3/97 are ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected, with identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8541.10.0080) classifications.

Q: Why is the original part marked as obsolete?

A: Product obsolescence is determined by the manufacturer based on production lifecycle decisions. The TGL41-24A-E3/97 remains in active production and provides equivalent functionality for the same application requirements.
