V20E130PL4B Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The V20E130PL4B is a 205 V, 10 kA Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) varistor manufactured by Littelfuse Inc. in the UltraMOV™ series. This through-hole disc varistor (20mm) is designed for transient overvoltage protection in electronic circuits. The part is currently Active in product status with full RoHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating (MSL 1). Equivalent substitute parts are identified based on matching electrical specifications, mechanical form factor, and compliance certifications to ensure direct interchangeability in circuit applications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the V20E130PL4B are qualified based on the following critical parameters that determine functional interchangeability:

• Voltage Rating: Maximum AC volts (130 V), maximum DC volts (170 V), and varistor voltage range (184.5 V minimum to 225.5 V maximum) must match exactly
• Surge Current Capacity: 10 kA rating must be maintained
• Energy Dissipation: 100 J energy rating must be equivalent
• Electrical Characteristics: Capacitance at 1 MHz (1900 pF) and number of circuits (1) must be identical
• Mechanical Form Factor: Through-hole mounting with 20mm disc package is required
• Environmental Compliance: RoHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating must be maintained
• Operating Temperature: -55°C to 85°C range must be supported

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The TMOV20RP130E is a direct parametric equivalent to the V20E130PL4B. Both parts are manufactured by Littelfuse Inc., share identical electrical specifications across all critical parameters, and maintain the same mechanical form factor. Both parts carry Active product status and full RoHS3 compliance with unlimited moisture sensitivity rating (MSL 1). The TMOV20RP130E is qualified as a substitute where V20E130PL4B availability is constrained or where design flexibility permits use of the TMOV® series in place of the UltraMOV™ series. Component selection between these two parts should be based on inventory availability, lead time, and cost considerations, as electrical and mechanical performance are equivalent.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can TMOV20RP130E be used as a direct replacement for V20E130PL4B?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical specifications (130 V AC maximum, 170 V DC maximum, 205 V typical varistor voltage, 10 kA surge current, 100 J energy rating), identical capacitance characteristics (1900 pF @ 1 MHz), and identical mechanical packaging (through-hole, 20mm disc). Both are RoHS3 compliant with MSL 1 rating and operate across the same temperature range (-55°C to 85°C).

Q: What are the key parameters that determine substitutability?

A: Substitutability is determined by: voltage ratings (AC/DC maximums and varistor voltage range), surge current capacity (10 kA), energy dissipation (100 J), capacitance value (1900 pF @ 1 MHz), circuit count (1), mounting type (through-hole), package form factor (20mm disc), and compliance certifications (RoHS3, MSL 1).

Q: Are there any differences between the UltraMOV™ and TMOV® series that affect substitution?

A: The TMOV20RP130E includes thermal protection as an additional feature. All electrical and mechanical parameters remain identical to the V20E130PL4B. The thermal protection feature does not affect circuit compatibility or performance in standard applications.

Q: What is the operating temperature range for both parts?

A: Both the V20E130PL4B and TMOV20RP130E operate across -55°C to 85°C ambient temperature range (TA).

Q: Are both parts compliant with environmental regulations?

A: Yes. Both parts are RoHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and carry MSL 1 (unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating. Both are classified under ECCN EAR99 and HTSUS 8533.40.4000.
