Equivalent & Substitute Parts for USB260HM3/5BT

Part Overview

The USB260HM3/5BT from Vishay General Semiconductor - Diodes Division is a surface-mount, general-purpose rectifier diode in the DO-214AA (SMB) package, rated for 600 V reverse voltage and 2 A average rectified current. Specification parameters include fast recovery time, low forward voltage, and automotive-grade AEC-Q101 qualification. The product status is Active, but finding alternative models is necessary for supply chain flexibility, multi-sourcing, or packaging preferences within the category of diodes and rectifiers.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All substitute parts listed match the main part in product status (Active), RoHS3 compliance, REACH status, MSL rating, and—where applicable—meet the AEC-Q101 qualification required for automotive-grade parts. Selection should be based on required certifications and packaging format as specified by application or procurement requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What are the main criteria for substituting USB260HM3/5BT with another part?
A: The substitute must match maximum reverse voltage, average rectified current, forward voltage at rated current, reverse recovery time, reverse leakage, capacitance, package type, mounting method, and appropriate grade and qualification (such as AEC-Q101 for automotive applications).

Q: Are the substitute diode rectifiers compatible by package?
A: All listed substitutes are supplied in the DO-214AA (SMB) surface-mount package, matching the USB260HM3/5BT.

Q: Are there differences in the environmental or regulatory compliance?
A: All compared parts are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and MSL 1 (Unlimited), ensuring compliance consistency.

Q: How does packaging type affect selection?
A: USB260HM3/5BT and USB260HM3/52T are available in Tape & Reel (TR), while USB260-M3/52T is provided as Cut Tape (CT). Packaging can influence automated assembly requirements and should be selected as per handling needs.

Q: Is the automotive qualification preserved across substitutes?
A: Only those substitute parts explicitly carrying "Grade: Automotive" and "Qualification: AEC-Q101" comply with automotive application standards. USB260HM3/5BT and USB260HM3/52T both meet these criteria.
