Strongest candidate with matching package, voltage, current, and recovery time. Verify manufacturer variant.
MURS160T3G-FS is a 600V, 1A fast recovery diode in an SMB package. Alternatives exist with similar packages, but careful review of reverse recovery time (trr) and specific manufacturer package variants is critical for a successful substitution.
Many parts share a base MPN but come in different packages (SMB, SMA, SMC).
Reverse recovery time (trr) can vary and is critical for high-frequency applications.
This is a common diode type with many potential manufacturers.
Direct replacement for MURS160T3G-FS should use only Datasheet verified or Strong match candidates; many approved options still require engineering review.
The LGE MURS160 offers the closest match in form and function, but requires datasheet verification.
The primary risk is substituting with a part that has a different package (e.g., SMA, SMC) or a much slower recovery time (standard vs. fast recovery).
