V130LC5 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The V130LC5 is a 205 V, 2.5 kA varistor manufactured by Littelfuse Inc., designed for transient voltage suppression in through-hole applications. This component features a disc form factor (10mm) and is rated for surge currents up to 2.5 kA with 20 J energy absorption capability. The V130LC5 is classified as obsolete, making identification of functionally equivalent alternatives essential for ongoing system support and new design implementations.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the V130LC5 is determined by strict equivalence across all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. The substitute part V130LC5P maintains identical specifications for voltage ratings (maximum AC 130 V, maximum DC 175 V, typical varistor voltage 205 V), surge current capacity (2.5 kA), energy absorption (20 J), circuit count (1), capacitance (450 pF @ 1 MHz), operating temperature range (-55°C to 85°C), and physical form factor (through-hole disc 10mm). Both components are manufactured by Littelfuse Inc. within the LC series and comply with ROHS3 standards. The primary distinction is product status: V130LC5 is obsolete while V130LC5P is active, and packaging configuration (V130LC5P supplied in bulk format).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The V130LC5P is the direct active substitute for the obsolete V130LC5. Both components are manufactured by Littelfuse Inc. and share identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all rated parameters. Selection of V130LC5P is appropriate for applications requiring the 205 V varistor voltage rating, 2.5 kA surge current capacity, and through-hole disc 10mm form factor. Both components maintain ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating, ensuring compatibility with standard manufacturing and storage protocols. The transition from V130LC5 to V130LC5P involves no functional or performance trade-offs, with the distinction being product lifecycle status and packaging format.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can V130LC5P be used as a direct replacement for V130LC5? A: Yes. V130LC5P is electrically and mechanically identical to V130LC5 across all specified parameters, including voltage ratings, surge current capacity, energy absorption, operating temperature range, and physical form factor. The primary difference is product status (active vs. obsolete) and packaging configuration.

Q: What are the critical parameters that define substitution eligibility for this varistor? A: Substitution is determined by equivalence in maximum AC voltage (130 V), maximum DC voltage (175 V), varistor voltage rating (205 V typical), surge current capacity (2.5 kA), energy absorption (20 J), mounting type (through hole), and package form factor (disc 10mm). All these parameters must match for functional equivalence.

Q: Are there any compliance or certification differences between V130LC5 and V130LC5P? A: Both components are ROHS3 compliant and carry MSL 1 (unlimited moisture sensitivity level) rating. No compliance or certification differences exist between the two parts.

Q: What is the significance of the packaging difference between V130LC5 and V130LC5P? A: V130LC5P is supplied in bulk packaging format, while V130LC5 packaging is not specified in the provided data. This is a supply chain and logistics consideration only and does not affect electrical or mechanical performance in the application.

Q: Is the V130LC5 still available for procurement? A: V130LC5 is classified as obsolete. V130LC5P, the active equivalent, is the recommended procurement option for new designs and ongoing system support.
