Product details
Overview
2A06G-T from Diodes Incorporated is a 2.0A glass passivated general-purpose rectifier diode in DO-15 package, rated for 800V peak repetitive reverse voltage (VRRM), 1.1V forward voltage at 2.0A, and 65A non-repetitive surge current. It serves as a primary AC-to-DC conversion element in offline power supplies, LED drivers, and industrial control input stages.
For engineers reviewing the 2A06G-T datasheet, 2A06G-T pinout, 2A06G-T application, or 2A06G-T equivalent, key selection criteria include VRRM derating for capacitive loads, thermal resistance (60°C/W), ambient temperature derating above 55°C, and DO-15 mechanical compatibility with through-hole PCB layouts.
Technical Context
This device operates as a single-phase, half-wave silicon rectifier optimized for 50/60Hz line-frequency applications. Its glass passivated die construction ensures stable junction isolation and enhanced moisture resistance versus epoxy-passivated alternatives.
Rated for continuous average forward current of 2.0A at TA = 55°C (derated to zero at 175°C), it supports surge currents up to 65A (8.3ms half-sine) and exhibits low junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (60°C/W) under standard lead conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 800 V - Maximum peak reverse voltage before breakdown; defines safe operating margin in 400–600VAC input circuits. |
| IF(AV) | 2.0 A @ TA = 55°C - Continuous DC output current capability; requires heatsinking or airflow above ambient 55°C. |
| VF | 1.1 V @ IF = 2.0A - Forward conduction loss; contributes ~2.2W dissipation at full load, impacting thermal design. |
| IFSM | 65 A - Peak surge rating for cold-start inrush or lightning-induced transients; validates robustness in unfiltered AC inputs. |
| RθJA | 60 °C/W - Junction-to-ambient thermal resistance with 9.5mm lead length; sets minimum copper area or forced-air requirements. |
| IRM | 5.0 µA @ 25°C - Reverse leakage at rated blocking voltage; critical for high-impedance bias networks or precision hold-up circuits. |
| CT | 40 pF @ 1MHz, 4V - Junction capacitance; affects EMI filtering design and high-frequency switching noise coupling. |
Pinout & Package
Package: DO-15 molded plastic case (UL 94V-0), axial leads, cathode band marking, 0.4g weight. Lead finish: matte tin, solderable per MIL-STD-202 Method 208.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | AC input connection point | Accepts alternating input; polarity must align with transformer secondary or bridge configuration. |
| Cathode | DC output connection point | Delivers rectified positive voltage; marked by visible band on body for orientation verification. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Glass passivated die | Eliminates moisture ingress at PN junction, enabling reliable operation in humid industrial environments without conformal coating. |
| 65A surge rating | Withstands repeated cold-start surges in AC mains-fed equipment without degradation, reducing need for upstream NTC thermistors. |
| DO-15 mechanical standard | Ensures drop-in replacement compatibility with legacy designs using 2A-rated DO-15 rectifiers (e.g., 1N4007, BY228). |
| RoHS-compliant tin finish | Supports lead-free reflow and wave soldering processes without whisker risk or intermetallic formation issues. |
Applications
| AC-DC Power Adapter | Industrial Motor Control Input |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Converts 120/230VAC mains to unregulated DC for 5–24V SMPS front-ends in wall adapters and chargers. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary rectification stage; conducts only during positive half-cycles to charge bulk capacitor. Use Value: 800V VRRM provides 2× safety margin over 230VAC peak (325V), minimizing failure risk during brownouts or surges. | Use Scenario: Rectifies AC feedback signals or auxiliary power for PLC I/O modules and relay driver boards. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Signal-level rectifier for zero-cross detection or isolated DC bias generation. Use Value: Low 5.0µA IRM at 25°C ensures minimal signal distortion in high-impedance sensing paths. |
| LED Streetlight Driver | Appliance Main Power Supply |
Use Scenario: Provides bulk rectification in constant-current LED drivers for outdoor lighting with wide input range (90–305VAC). IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Front-end rectifier feeding PFC stage; handles full line current continuously. Use Value: 2.0A IF(AV) rating supports >40W output with margin; 60°C/W RθJA enables natural convection cooling in sealed enclosures. | Use Scenario: Delivers unregulated DC to linear regulators or microcontroller power rails in washing machines, microwaves, and HVAC controls. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Mains-side rectifier in low-cost non-isolated power supplies. Use Value: DO-15 footprint allows direct replacement of legacy 1N400x series while offering higher VRRM and surge tolerance. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar general-purpose rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4007-T | Same DO-15 package, but lower 1000V VRRM and higher 1.1V VF at 1A (not 2A); 30A IFSM vs. 65A. | Marginally sufficient for 230VAC inputs; inadequate for surge-heavy industrial environments. | Select when cost is primary constraint and surge exposure is low. |
| BY228-T | DO-15, 1000V VRRM, 2.5A IF(AV), 1.15V VF @ 2.5A, 100A IFSM; higher thermal mass. | Better suited for high-reliability motor drives with frequent restarts or regenerative braking spikes. | Select when extended surge endurance or higher continuous current headroom is required. |
Compared with 1N4007-T and BY228-T, the 2A06G-T delivers optimal balance of 800V blocking, 2.0A continuous rating, and 65A surge capability in a cost-effective DO-15 form factor-ideal for mid-power industrial and consumer AC-DC conversion where space and thermal constraints preclude larger packages.

FAQ
What is the maximum ambient temperature for full 2.0A current rating?
The 2A06G-T sustains 2.0A average forward current only up to 55°C ambient temperature. Above this, current must be linearly derated to zero at 175°C, per Figure 1 in DS29006. At 85°C ambient, maximum allowable IF(AV) drops to approximately 1.3A without heatsinking.
Can 2A06G-T replace 1N4007 in existing designs?
Yes, with caveats: both use DO-15 package and share cathode-band polarity, but 2A06G-T has lower VRRM (800V vs. 1000V) and is rated at 2.0A (vs. 1.0A for 1N4007). It is suitable if circuit peak reverse voltage stays below 800V and average current exceeds 1.0A-verify thermal performance under actual load.
Is the 2A06G-T suitable for capacitive-input filter applications?
No-datasheet explicitly states "For capacitive load, derate current by 20%." In such configurations, maximum IF(AV) reduces to 1.6A at 55°C ambient. Additional derating applies for ripple current and inrush stress; consider higher-rated alternatives like BY228-T for heavy capacitive loads.
Does the DO-15 package support automated through-hole insertion?
Yes-the DO-15 axial-leaded package is compatible with standard automated insertion equipment. Lead spacing is standardized at 5.0–7.6mm (per datasheet dimension B), and the 0.4g weight ensures stable placement. Ensure tape-and-reel packaging (4K/reel, 13-inch) matches your pick-and-place feeder specifications.
