Procurement Notes

This component is officially designated as obsolete and no longer in production by Infineon Technologies. Verification of availability should focus exclusively on remaining stock from authorized distributors or secondary market suppliers. Buyers must confirm the specific revision status and physical condition of available units, as lead times are not applicable for discontinued items. Cross-reference official replacement recommendations before procurement.

Selection Notes

Engineers replacing this part should evaluate the manufacturer-recommended substitute T1601N36TOFXPSA1, which shares the same form factor and electrical specifications. Design validation must ensure that the replacement meets all thermal and mechanical mounting requirements of the original application. Verify that the gate trigger parameters remain compatible with the existing control circuitry to maintain system stability.

Part Context

The T1601N36TOFXPSA1 belongs to Infineon's high-power thyristor module portfolio, specifically engineered for demanding power electronics applications. It represents a standard solution for phase-controlled rectifiers and inverters where high voltage blocking and massive current conduction are critical. The module integrates advanced silicon technology to ensure reliable operation under severe electrical stress conditions.

Replacement Considerations

The manufacturer recommends T1601N36TOFXPSA1 as the direct replacement. This alternative maintains identical electrical ratings and mechanical dimensions, facilitating drop-in integration without redesigning the cooling or mounting infrastructure.
