Best Alternatives to MURS160T3G-FS

Package: SMB/DO-214AAFUXINSEMIDiodes - Rectifiers - SingleVoltage - DC Reverse (Vr) (Max): 600 VCurrent - Average Rectified (Io): 1.0 AVoltage - Forward (Vf) (Max) @ If: 1.25 V @ 1.0 ASpeed: Fast Recovery = 200mA (Io)Reverse Recovery Time (trr): 50 ns

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.

AI replacement insight

Package riskhigh

Many parts share a base MPN but come in different packages (SMB, SMA, SMC).

Electrical riskmedium

Reverse recovery time (trr) can vary and is critical for high-frequency applications.

Sourcing risklow

This is a common diode type with many potential manufacturers.

Can it be replaced directly?

Direct replacement for MURS160T3G-FS should use only Datasheet verified or Strong match candidates; many approved options still require engineering review.

Best replacement path

The LGE MURS160 offers the closest match in form and function, but requires datasheet verification.

Main risk

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).
