Is there a pin-compatible replacement for BSMD2920-075-60V?

Several candidates share the same 2920 package and are pin-compatible. However, none match the key electrical parameters (hold/trip current) exactly, so they are not drop-in replacements.

What risks should I check before replacing BSMD2920-075-60V?

The main risk is incorrect overcurrent protection. Verify the substitute's hold current, trip current, and time-to-trip characteristics to ensure they are safe and functional for your specific circuit design.

BSMD2920-075-60V Alternatives, Datasheet & Cross Reference | BHFUSE

AI replacement insight

Electrical riskhigh

Mismatched hold/trip current can lead to circuit failure or nuisance tripping.

Package risklow

All viable candidates use the same 2920 package.

Can it be replaced directly?

No direct, pin-compatible replacement for BSMD2920-075-60V has been identified. All potential substitutes have different hold or trip current ratings, requiring careful engineering evaluation.

Best replacement path

The closest options are from the same BHFUSE BSMD2920 series or Littelfuse 2920L series, but all require adjusting for different current ratings.

Main risk

The primary risk is circuit damage or malfunction due to mismatched overcurrent protection levels (hold and trip currents).

Recommended alternatives

Same series and package, but higher current ratings require careful design review.
