A strong parametric match in a SOT-23 package, but lacks the target's AEC-Q101 automotive qualification.
Finding a substitute for the ESD2CAN24T2Q, an AEC-Q101 qualified CAN bus protector, requires careful attention to automotive standards. While several parts match its electrical parameters and SOT-23 package, ensuring equivalent reliability and qualification is key.
Target is AEC-Q qualified for automotive use; most alternatives are not.
Multiple candidates share the same SOT-23 package, but pinout must be verified.
Parameters like clamping voltage, capacitance, and power rating must be closely matched.
Direct replacement for ESD2CAN24T2Q should use only Datasheet verified or Strong match candidates; many approved options still require engineering review.
NUP2105L is the closest parametric match for non-automotive applications. No direct AEC-Q101 qualified replacement was identified.
The primary risk is using a non-AEC-Q101 qualified part in an automotive application, which can compromise reliability and safety.
