Overview
1N4937G from Taiwan Semiconductor is a single-die fast recovery rectifier diode in DO-204AL (DO-41) package, rated for 1 A average forward current, 600 V repetitive peak reverse voltage, and 200 ns reverse recovery time, used in high-efficiency DC-DC converters and switching inverters.
For engineers reviewing the 1N4937G datasheet, 1N4937G pinout, 1N4937G application, or 1N4937G equivalent, key selection criteria include its 600 V VRRM, 30 A IFSM, 1.2 V VF at 1 A, 150 °C maximum junction temperature, and AEC-Q101 qualification availability in H-suffix variants.
Technical Context
This device operates as a unidirectional power rectifier with fast recovery characteristics optimized for high-frequency switching topologies. Its 200 ns trr and low 1.2 V forward voltage enable reduced conduction and switching losses in SMPS designs.
The DO-204AL package supports through-hole mounting with pure tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002 solderability and JESD 201 Class 2 whisker resistance, and features a cathode band polarity indicator.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar fast recovery rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH1R06 | Same 1 A / 600 V rating; 1.3 V VF (max), 150 ns trr; TO-220AC package | Higher thermal mass but requires PCB footprint change and heatsink mounting | Preferred where lower trr and higher surge margin justify SMT-to-through-hole redesign |
| ON Semiconductor MUR160 | 1 A / 600 V; 1.7 V VF (max), 75 ns trr; DO-41 package, same pinout | Lower VF not achieved; faster trr improves high-frequency efficiency but increases EMI sensitivity | Drop-in replacement only if layout allows tighter EMI filtering; verify snubber design compatibility |
Compared with STTH1R06 and MUR160, the 1N4937G offers balanced performance with industry-standard DO-41 footprint, lower VF than MUR160, and simpler thermal management than STTH1R06-making it optimal for cost-sensitive, space-constrained industrial and automotive auxiliary supplies.

FAQ
What is the maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage rating for the 1N4937G?
The 1N4937G has a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM) of 600 V. This rating defines the highest instantaneous reverse voltage the diode can block repeatedly without avalanche breakdown under normal operating conditions. It is the highest voltage grade in the 1N4933G–1N4937G family and is confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table on page 1 of the official TSC datasheet revision I2104.
Does the 1N4937G have AEC-Q101 qualification?
The base 1N4937G is not AEC-Q101 qualified; however, the variant 1N4937GH is explicitly listed in the Ordering Information section as AEC-Q101 qualified. The "H" suffix denotes automotive-grade testing per AEC-Q101, including stress tests for temperature cycling, humidity, and mechanical shock. Always specify the "H" suffix when automotive qualification is required for the 1N4937G.
What is the forward voltage drop of the 1N4937G at rated current?
The 1N4937G exhibits a maximum forward voltage (VF) of 1.2 V at 1 A forward current and 25 °C junction temperature, as specified in the Electrical Specifications table. This value is measured under pulsed conditions (PW = 0.3 ms) and represents the conduction loss under typical operating conditions, directly impacting power efficiency and thermal design in the 1N4937G application circuit.
What package type does the 1N4937G use, and what are its key mechanical features?
The 1N4937G uses the DO-204AL (DO-41) axial-leaded package. Key mechanical features include pure tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002 solderability, UL 94V-0 rated epoxy molding compound, cathode band polarity marking, and JESD 201 Class 2 whisker resistance. Its weight is approximately 0.330 g, and it is designed for through-hole assembly in high-reliability power applications.
How does the reverse recovery time of the 1N4937G affect its suitability for high-frequency switching?
The 1N4937G has a maximum reverse recovery time (trr) of 200 ns, measured at IF = 0.5 A, IR = 1.0 A, and Irr = 0.25 A. This fast recovery enables efficient operation in switching power supplies up to ~300 kHz, reducing switching losses and minimizing voltage spikes during turn-off-critical for stable, high-efficiency performance in the 1N4937G application in DC-DC converters and inverters.
