Product details
Overview
6A100G A0G from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 6A, 1000V standard glass-passivated axial-lead rectifier diode in R-6 package, featuring 1.0V forward voltage at 6A/25°C, 250A surge capability, and 35°C/W junction-to-ambient thermal resistance - deployed in high-reliability DC-DC converters and industrial inverters.
For engineers reviewing the 6A100G A0G datasheet, 6A100G A0G pinout, 6A100G A0G application, or 6A100G A0G equivalent, key selection criteria include peak reverse voltage (1000V), forward current rating (6A), thermal resistance (35°C/W), RoHS/halogen-free compliance, and R-6 mechanical form factor with cathode band polarity marking.
Technical Context
This device is a single-die, standard recovery rectifier optimized for switching-mode power supplies. Its glass-passivated junction ensures stable operation up to 150°C junction temperature, while the R-6 package supports high surge current handling (250A, 8.3ms half-sine) without thermal runaway under transient loads.
Electrical behavior is defined by low forward voltage (1.0V typ. at 6A/25°C), minimal reverse leakage (10 µA max at 25°C), and 60 pF junction capacitance at 4V reverse bias - enabling efficient high-frequency rectification with reduced switching losses in SMPS topologies.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 1000 V - maximum repetitive reverse voltage the diode blocks reliably in circuit |
| IF | 6 A - continuous average forward current rating at TA = 25°C |
| IFSM | 250 A - non-repetitive surge current tolerance (8.3ms half-sine), critical for inrush protection |
| VF @ 6A, 25°C | 1.0 V - forward voltage drop determining conduction loss and thermal load in power stage |
| RθJA | 35 °C/W - junction-to-ambient thermal resistance defining heatsink requirements for 6A operation |
| IR @ VR=1000V, 25°C | 10 µA - reverse leakage current affecting standby power and isolation integrity |
| TJ max | 150 °C - maximum allowable junction temperature for long-term reliability |
Pinout & Package
Package: R-6 axial-leaded through-hole package with pure tin-plated leads (J-STD-002 compliant), UL 94V-0 molding compound, cathode indicated by band, weight ≈1.65g.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar standard rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH6L06D | 6A/600V, TO-220AC package, VF = 1.15V @ 6A, RθJA = 40°C/W | Limited to ≤600V systems; requires heatsink due to higher thermal resistance | Select when 600V rating suffices and PCB space allows TO-220 mounting |
| ON Semi MUR6100CT | 6A/1000V, TO-220AB dual common-cathode, VF = 1.2V @ 6A, fast recovery (75ns) | Fast recovery enables higher-frequency operation but increases cost and EMI risk in standard rectifier use | Select only if switching frequency exceeds 100kHz or dual-diode configuration is required |
Compared with STTH6L06D and MUR6100CT, the 6A100G A0G provides optimal balance of 1000V blocking, low VF, axial R-6 form factor, and cost-effective through-hole assembly - making it preferred for 50–100kHz industrial SMPS where thermal and voltage margins are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for the 6A100G A0G?
The 6A100G A0G has a maximum junction temperature (TJ max) of 150°C, validated per absolute maximum ratings in the official Taiwan Semiconductor datasheet F2104. This rating enables reliable operation in enclosed industrial enclosures with ambient temperatures up to 85°C when mounted on appropriate PCB copper area or heatsink. Thermal derating must be applied above 25°C ambient per the forward current derating curve in Figure 1.
Does the 6A100G A0G meet AEC-Q101 qualification?
No, the 6A100G A0G does not meet AEC-Q101 qualification. Per the ordering information table, only part numbers ending in "H" (e.g., 6A100GH) are AEC-Q101 qualified. The "A0G" suffix indicates ammo box packaging (700 units) with standard industrial qualification - suitable for industrial and telecom applications but not automotive-grade stress testing.
What is the forward voltage specification for the 6A100G A0G at rated current?
The 6A100G A0G exhibits a typical forward voltage (VF) of 1.0 V at IF = 6 A and TJ = 25°C, as specified in the Electrical Specifications table for devices ≥200V (6A20G through 6A100G). This value is measured under pulsed conditions (PW = 0.3 ms) and represents conduction loss baseline for thermal design calculations.
How is polarity marked on the 6A100G A0G package?
Polarity on the 6A100G A0G is indicated by a cathode band printed on the body of the R-6 package - the lead adjacent to the band is the cathode terminal. This marking aligns with JEDEC standard orientation for axial-leaded diodes and must be observed during PCB layout and assembly to prevent reverse-bias failure in circuit operation.
What packaging options are available for the 6A100G A0G?
The 6A100G A0G is supplied in 700-unit ammo boxes, as defined in the Ordering Information table. It is not offered in tape-and-reel format; that option applies only to variants with "H" or no suffix (e.g., 6A100G or 6A100GH). Ammo box packaging supports manual or semi-automated insertion processes common in low-to-medium volume industrial manufacturing.
