TPMR6G Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The TPMR6G is a surface mount super fast recovery rectifier diode manufactured by Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation. This component is rated for 400V DC reverse voltage with 6A average rectified current and features a 60ns reverse recovery time. The TPMR6G is classified as discontinued at DiGi Electronics, necessitating identification of equivalent substitute components for ongoing design requirements and procurement needs. The substitute part TPMR6G S1G provides functional equivalence with improved performance characteristics while maintaining identical electrical ratings and package compatibility.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the TPMR6G with the TPMR6G S1G is based on strict equivalence of the following critical electrical and mechanical parameters:

Electrical Equivalence Criteria:

• Voltage - DC Reverse (Vr) (Max): 400V (identical)
• Current - Average Rectified (Io): 6A (identical)
• Voltage - Forward (Vf) (Max) @ If: 1.2V @ 6A (identical)
• Current - Reverse Leakage @ Vr: 10µA @ 400V (identical)
• Capacitance @ Vr, F: 60pF @ 4V, 1MHz (identical)
• Operating Temperature - Junction: -55°C to 175°C (identical)

Mechanical Equivalence Criteria:

• Package / Case: TO-277, 3-PowerDFN (identical)
• Supplier Device Package: TO-277A (SMPC) (identical)
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount (identical)

Performance Enhancement:

• Reverse Recovery Time (trr): 35ns (improved from 60ns)

The TPMR6G S1G maintains full electrical and mechanical compatibility while offering superior reverse recovery performance. Both components share the same base product number (TPMR6) and are manufactured by Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The TPMR6G S1G is a direct substitute for the TPMR6G based on the following engineering criteria:

Electrical Compatibility: All critical electrical parameters are identical between the two components. The reverse recovery time of the TPMR6G S1G (35ns) is superior to the TPMR6G (60ns), providing enhanced performance without compromising any electrical specification.

Mechanical Compatibility: Both components utilize the identical TO-277A (SMPC) package and 3-PowerDFN case format. Surface mount assembly processes require no modification.

Regulatory Compliance: Both components maintain ROHS3 compliance, REACH unaffected status, and identical moisture sensitivity levels (MSL 1 - Unlimited). No compliance barriers exist for substitution.

Product Status: The TPMR6G S1G is classified as active with 4110 pieces in stock, whereas the TPMR6G is discontinued at DiGi Electronics. The substitute part ensures continued component availability for production and design requirements.

Packaging Consideration: The TPMR6G S1G is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format, whereas the original TPMR6G was available in Cut Tape (CT) & Digi-Reel® packaging. Both formats are compatible with standard surface mount assembly equipment.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the TPMR6G S1G be used as a direct replacement for the TPMR6G in existing designs?

A: Yes. The TPMR6G S1G is electrically and mechanically equivalent to the TPMR6G. All critical parameters including voltage rating (400V), current rating (6A), forward voltage drop (1.2V @ 6A), and package format (TO-277A SMPC) are identical. The substitute part features improved reverse recovery time (35ns versus 60ns), which enhances performance without introducing incompatibility.

Q: What is the primary difference between the TPMR6G and TPMR6G S1G?

A: The primary difference is the reverse recovery time specification. The TPMR6G S1G has a reverse recovery time of 35ns compared to 60ns for the TPMR6G. This improvement reduces switching losses and enhances efficiency in high-frequency
