Needs validationlow risk
A 60V, 3A Schottky diode in a SOD-123FL package with nearly identical electrical parameters.
Best Alternatives to DS36W
DS36W is a 60V, 3A Schottky rectifier in a SOD-123FL package for rectification and freewheeling. Alternatives exist with similar or upgraded voltage, but require checking forward voltage and package details.
AI replacement insight
Electrical risklow
DSS36/DSK36 are very close. DSS310/DSK310 have higher Vf, increasing power loss.
Package risklow
SOD-123FL vs SOD-123 are very similar but require footprint verification.
Sourcing risklow
Multiple manufacturers produce these common diode types.
Can it be replaced directly?
DSS36 and DSK36 are the closest functional matches, but require datasheet verification for pin-to-pin compatibility due to minor package variations (SOD-123 vs SOD-123FL).
Best replacement path
DSS36 or DSK36 for similar performance; DSS310 or DSK310 for higher voltage tolerance at the cost of efficiency.
Main risk
The primary risk is a mismatch in forward voltage (Vf) leading to thermal issues, or a subtle package dimension difference affecting PCB layout.
