BORN
A higher voltage (24V) version in the same series from the same manufacturer, offering a direct upgrade path.
Find and compare alternatives for the BORN 0402ESDA-18N, an 18V bi-directional ESD suppressor in a 0402 package. Review key parameter differences like voltage, capacitance, and leakage current before selecting a substitute.
Must verify key parameters like clamping voltage and leakage current.
0402 package is standard and widely available.
No exact 1-to-1 direct replacement is listed, but the BORN 0402ESDA-24N is a near-identical part from the same family with a higher voltage rating, making it a very low-risk substitute.
For a low-risk upgrade, use 0402ESDA-24N from the same manufacturer. For improved performance, especially in high-speed circuits, the Littelfuse AXGD10402KR is a superior choice.
The primary risk is selecting a substitute with weaker protection characteristics, such as higher clamping voltage or leakage current, which could compromise circuit reliability.
