D-61-8 Vs PRM2 Package Type

When you are searching for an electronic component, specifically ICs, you will often find that there are industry recognized package sizes and types. i.e. 0603 (Resistors, Capacitors), TO-226, 243, 247 (Mosfets) etc…

How about schottky diodes? If you’ve come across D-61-8 or PRM2 packages and thought, “these look exactly the same”…that’s because they are. Not many manufacturers note these as the same package type but the ones that do are the ones who are doing us a wonderful service.
