AI replacement insight

Package riskhigh

Many alternatives are in different packages, requiring a PCB redesign.

Electrical riskmedium

Candidates may have higher forward voltage or reverse leakage, impacting performance.

Can it be replaced directly?

No verified direct, pin-to-pin replacement has been identified. MSK4010 shares the same package and primary ratings but has conflicting datasheet information and weaker secondary parameters that require engineering review.

Best replacement path

The best path is to find a part in the same SOD-523 package with 40V/1A ratings or better, paying close attention to forward voltage (Vf) and reverse leakage (Ir). MSK4010 is a potential candidate but requires datasheet verification.

Main risk

The main risks are package incompatibility, which requires a board redesign, and electrical mismatches in forward voltage or reverse leakage, which can affect circuit efficiency and performance.
