Product details
Overview
6A60G from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 6 A, 600 V standard glass-passivated axial-lead rectifier diode in R-6 package, featuring 1.0 V max forward voltage at 6 A and 250 A surge capability, used in DC-DC converters and switching inverters.
For engineers reviewing the 6A60G datasheet, 6A60G pinout, 6A60G application, or 6A60G equivalent, key selection criteria include repetitive peak reverse voltage (600 V), forward current rating (6 A), thermal resistance (35 °C/W), junction capacitance (60 pF), and AEC-Q101 qualification availability.
Technical Context
This single-die standard rectifier operates with a maximum junction temperature of 150 °C and supports continuous forward conduction up to 6 A at 25 °C ambient. Its glass-passivated junction ensures stable reverse leakage (<10 µA at 25 °C) and high reliability under thermal cycling.
The R-6 package provides mechanical robustness with UL 94V-0 molding compound and pure tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002 solderability and JESD 201 Class 2 whisker resistance. Polarity is marked by cathode band.
Key Specifications

| IF | 6 A - continuous average forward current rating at TA = 25 °C |
| IFSM | 250 A - withstands 8.3 ms half-sine surge without failure |
| VF (max) | 1.0 V @ 6 A, 25 °C - low conduction loss enabling efficient power conversion |
| RθJA | 35 °C/W - thermal resistance from junction to ambient in free-air conditions |
| CJ | 60 pF @ 1 MHz, 4 V - limits high-frequency switching noise and EMI |
| IR (max) | 10 µA @ 25 °C - ensures minimal leakage in blocking state |
Pinout & Package

Applications
| DC-DC Converter Output Stage | Switching Inverter Freewheeling Path |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Secondary-side rectification in isolated flyback or forward converters delivering 12–48 V outputs at up to 6 A. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Standard rectifier conducting unidirectional current during transformer demagnetization phase. Use Value: 1.0 V VF minimizes power loss and thermal rise at full load; 600 V VRRM accommodates reflected voltage spikes. | Use Scenario: Freewheeling path across inductive loads (e.g., BLDC motor phases) in 3-phase bridge inverters. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Provides safe current recirculation during PWM off-time to prevent voltage overshoot. Use Value: 250 A IFSM handles motor startup surges; 35 °C/W RθJA enables natural convection cooling in compact enclosures. |
| Industrial AC-DC Power Supply | Automotive Auxiliary Power Module |
Use Scenario: Input-stage bridge rectification in 100–240 VAC input supplies powering PLCs or HMIs. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Single die in discrete bridge configuration or as part of multi-diode module. Use Value: 600 V rating covers line-voltage transients per IEC 61000-4-5; RoHS/halogen-free compliance meets industrial environmental standards. | Use Scenario: 12 V/24 V auxiliary power conversion in engine control units or ADAS domain controllers.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar standard rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH6L06S | 6 A, 600 V, TO-220AC package, VF = 1.7 V typ @ 6 A | Higher VF increases conduction loss; requires heatsink for same thermal performance | Preferred where PCB mounting is impractical and thermal mass is available |
| ON Semi MUR660E | 6 A, 600 V, ultrafast recovery (trr = 60 ns), VF = 1.75 V typ @ 6 A | Faster recovery reduces switching loss but raises conduction loss vs. standard rectifier | Chosen when EMI reduction or high-frequency operation (>100 kHz) is prioritized over efficiency |
Compared with STTH6L06S and MUR660E, the 6A60G offers lower forward voltage and simpler thermal management in R-6 axial form, making it optimal for cost-sensitive, medium-frequency (<100 kHz), naturally cooled power supplies where fast recovery is unnecessary.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for the 6A60G?
The 6A60G has a maximum junction temperature (TJ) rating of +150 °C, allowing reliable operation in high-ambient environments such as enclosed power supplies or under-hood automotive modules. This rating is maintained across its full operating current range and supports derating curves defined in the datasheet for elevated ambient temperatures.
Does the 6A60G have AEC-Q101 qualification?
The base 6A60G is not AEC-Q101 qualified; however, the variant 6A60GH is explicitly qualified per AEC-Q101 Rev D. The "H" suffix denotes automotive-grade screening including stress testing for temperature cycling, humidity bias, and mechanical shock-critical for use in automotive auxiliary power modules.
What is the forward voltage specification for the 6A60G at rated current?
The 6A60G specifies a maximum forward voltage (VF) of 1.0 V at IF = 6 A and TJ = 25 °C, measured under pulsed conditions (PW = 0.3 ms). This low VF directly reduces conduction losses and improves system efficiency in high-current rectification stages.
How is polarity indicated on the 6A60G package?
Polarity on the 6A60G is indicated by a cathode band printed on the body near one lead end. The lead adjacent to the band is the cathode; the opposite lead is the anode. This marking complies with JEDEC standards and ensures correct orientation during manual or automated assembly.
What packaging options are available for the 6A60G?
The 6A60G is supplied in R-6 package with two standard packing formats: 1,000 units per tape-and-reel (ordering code 6A60G) and 700 units per ammo box (ordering code 6A60G A0G). Both options use RoHS-compliant, halogen-free green molding compound and pure tin-plated leads.
