TV Repair - Choosing a MOSFET replacement - generic

[anonymic]

I'm in the process of repairing a TV and believe the failure is down to one positively nuked MOSFET on the main board. It's an expensive board but I know the part number of the MOSFET. The problem is that it's only available in 3000 off quantity. I'm okay with replacing the part with an exact equivalent because apparently a firmware update to the board resolves the problem once it is repaired.

I've googled how to choose MOSFET's but I'm met with terminology and equations I just don't understand, use cases I can't identify, and in this application, a solution I don't understand. Searching here I mostly find users looking to solve specific problems for their circuit. Here the circuit exists but is merely missing a known component.

So my part number is ZXMP3F30FH P-Channel MOSFET in a SOT-23 package for what it's worth. One reference I found said it's okay to replace it with a BCW72LTIG or SBCW72LTIG bipolar transistor.  I'm not really interested in asking if that's appropriate because a yes or no really doesn't help me learn anything.  If anyone would like to expand on the whens and whys of replacing a MOSFET with a standard transistor, I'm certainly interested however.

My main question is, if I'm looking at a datasheet and I need something that isn't going to self destruct when I power the unit on, what parameters are most important to me to look for? Should I be looking for higher or lower values for those particular parameters?

Replacement part recommended is TSM2307CX

Continuous breakdown Voltage and Currents, those listed as "Absolute Maximum Ratings" at the top of every datasheet.
You would have to read up about mosfet, I am afraid.

Thanks for the part number.

My first go-around was with Digi-key's parameter search, which netted me the exact part and nothing else. Perhaps I should have selected a range from the datasheet value to something somewhat higher and that would have given me a range of solutions that would work. My concern was that if a particular parameter was too far from the datasheet value it would throw something else out of the acceptable range.

How about this one? It has better RDSon and Id specs ...

Thanks fzabkar, I've already ordered the part recommended by Armadillo.  TBH, the part wasn't the target, the reasoning was.
