Product details
Overview
1N4936GHB0G from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 1A, 400V fast recovery rectifier diode in DO-41 package, featuring 200ns reverse recovery time, 1.2V forward voltage at 1A, and 30A surge current capability-used in switching-mode DC/DC converters requiring efficient unidirectional conduction.
For engineers reviewing the 1N4936GHB0G datasheet, 1N4936GHB0G pinout, 1N4936GHB0G application, or 1N4936GHB0G equivalent, key selection criteria include VRRM = 400V, IF = 1A, trr ≤ 200ns, thermal resistance RθJA = 65°C/W, and AEC-Q101 qualification status for automotive-grade reliability.
Technical Context
This device operates as a single-die, unidirectional fast recovery rectifier with cathode-band polarity marking. Its 200ns reverse recovery time enables high-frequency switching in SMPS topologies, while the 1.2V VF at 1A and 30A IFSM support transient-heavy power conversion stages.
The DO-41 (DO-204AL) package provides axial lead mounting, UL 94V-0 molding compound, pure tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002, and junction temperature range of –55°C to +150°C-enabling use in thermally constrained industrial and automotive environments.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 400 V - Maximum repetitive reverse blocking voltage; defines safe operating ceiling in bridge or flyback secondary rectification |
| IF | 1 A - Continuous average forward current; sets steady-state power handling limit without derating |
| trr | 200 ns - Reverse recovery time; determines minimum switching frequency compatibility and switching loss in hard-switched converters |
| VF | 1.2 V @ 1A, 25°C - Forward voltage drop; directly impacts conduction loss and thermal design in high-duty-cycle operation |
| IFSM | 30 A - Non-repetitive surge current (8.3ms half-sine); supports inrush and fault-current tolerance during startup or overload |
| RθJA | 65 °C/W - Junction-to-ambient thermal resistance; used to calculate temperature rise under given power dissipation in free-air conditions |
Pinout & Package
Package: DO-204AL (DO-41), axial-leaded, epoxy-molded case with cathode band marking. Leads are pure tin-plated and solderable per J-STD-002.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward current entry point | Connected to lower-potential side (e.g., transformer secondary center-tap or switch node) in rectifier configuration |
| Cathode | Forward current exit point | Marked by colored band; connects to output capacitor positive rail or load return path in standard half-wave or full-wave setups |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|

| Low VF = 1.2 V @ 1A | Reduces conduction loss by ~15% vs. standard 1N400x series, improving efficiency in low-voltage, high-current outputs |
| RoHS & halogen-free | Complies with IEC 61249-2-21 and EU RoHS directives-required for export to EU, China, and other regulated markets |
Applications
| DC/DC Converter Secondary Rectification | Automotive Body Control Module (BCM) Power Supply |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Rectifying transformer secondary output in isolated 12V-to-5V/3.3V flyback converter for microcontroller power rails. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Unidirectional current valve enabling energy transfer from primary to secondary side during switch-off phase. Use Value: 200ns trr minimizes reverse recovery loss at 65–100 kHz switching, while 400V VRRM provides margin against reflected voltage spikes. | Use Scenario: Input rectification in BCM auxiliary power supply fed from vehicle battery (12V nominal, up to 16V running, 36V load dump). IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Polarity protection and AC-to-DC conversion for downstream LDOs and PMICs. Use Value: AEC-Q101 qualification ensures survivability across –40°C to +125°C ambient, and 30A IFSM withstands 12V load-dump transients. |

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-reliability output rectifier delivering stable 15V/20mA bias to isolated gate drivers. Use Value: 150°C TJMAX and 65°C/W RθJA allow operation in enclosed enclosures with minimal heatsinking. | Use Scenario: Output rectification in compact 5V/2A wall adapter using QR flyback topology. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Final-stage power conversion element delivering regulated DC to USB ports. Use Value: Low 1.2V VF reduces thermal stress on PCB layout, and DO-41 footprint enables automated axial insertion in high-volume assembly. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar fast recovery rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH1R04 | VRRM = 400V, IF = 1A, trr = 50ns (faster), VF = 1.3V @ 1A | Lower trr enables >200 kHz operation; higher VF increases conduction loss | Preferred when switching frequency exceeds 150 kHz and thermal headroom permits slightly higher VF |
| ON Semiconductor MUR140 | VRRM = 400V, IF = 1A, trr = 75ns, VF = 1.25V @ 1A, DO-41 package | Similar VF, faster trr, but not AEC-Q101 qualified | Cost-effective alternative for non-automotive industrial or consumer designs where qualification is not required |
Compared with STTH1R04 and MUR140, the 1N4936GHB0G offers AEC-Q101 qualification and identical VRRM/IF ratings but slower trr-making it optimal for cost-sensitive automotive auxiliary supplies operating below 100 kHz where qualification outweighs ultra-fast recovery.

FAQ
What is the peak repetitive reverse voltage rating for the 1N4936GHB0G?
The 1N4936GHB0G has a peak repetitive reverse voltage (VRRM) rating of 400 V. This value is specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table and defines the maximum reverse-biased voltage the diode can block repeatedly without breakdown. It is critical for selecting appropriate voltage margin in rectifier circuits-especially in flyback or forward converters where reflected voltages may exceed nominal input levels.
Is the 1N4936GHB0G AEC-Q101 qualified, and what does the 'H' suffix indicate?
Yes, the 1N4936GHB0G is AEC-Q101 qualified-the 'H' in the part number explicitly denotes qualification per the AEC-Q101 stress test standard for discrete semiconductors. This includes testing for temperature cycling, humidity bias, mechanical shock, and high-temperature operating life. The qualification confirms suitability for automotive applications such as body electronics, infotainment power supplies, and ADAS subsystems where long-term reliability under harsh environmental conditions is mandatory.
What is the reverse recovery time (trr) of the 1N4936GHB0G, and how does it affect circuit performance?
The reverse recovery time (trr) of the 1N4936GHB0G is rated at 200 ns under standard test conditions (IF = 0.5 A, IR = 1.0 A, Irr = 0.25 A). This parameter directly influences switching losses and EMI generation in high-frequency converters. At 200 ns, the 1N4936GHB0G supports reliable operation up to approximately 100 kHz in hard-switched topologies-beyond which faster alternatives like the STTH1R04 (50 ns) may be preferred to minimize recovery-related losses.
What package type does the 1N4936GHB0G use, and what are its mechanical features?
The 1N4936GHB0G uses the DO-204AL (DO-41) axial-leaded package. Key mechanical features include UL 94V-0 rated epoxy molding compound, pure tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002 solderability requirements, cathode polarity indicated by a visible band, and a typical weight of 0.330 g. Its standardized DO-41 footprint allows compatibility with legacy through-hole assembly lines and manual prototyping without retooling.
How does the forward voltage (VF) of the 1N4936GHB0G compare to standard rectifiers like the 1N4007?
The 1N4936GHB0G has a maximum forward voltage (VF) of 1.2 V at 1 A and 25°C, significantly lower than the 1N4007's typical 1.7 V under the same conditions. This 0.5 V reduction lowers conduction loss by ~30% at full load, improving overall system efficiency and reducing thermal stress on the PCB-particularly beneficial in compact, sealed, or thermally limited applications such as automotive ECUs or industrial power adapters.
