Product details
Overview
6A60GH A0G from Taiwan Semiconductor is a glass-passivated, AEC-Q101-qualified standard rectifier diode rated for 600 V repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM), 6 A average forward current (IF), and 250 A non-repetitive surge current (IFSM), used in DC-DC converters and switching-mode inverters.
For engineers reviewing the 6A60GH A0G datasheet, 6A60GH A0G pinout, 6A60GH A0G application, or 6A60GH A0G equivalent, key selection criteria include its R-6 package thermal resistance (RθJA = 35 °C/W), low forward voltage (VF = 1.0 V @ 6 A, 25°C), and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive-grade reliability.
Technical Context
This single-die standard rectifier operates with a maximum junction temperature of 150°C and supports continuous conduction in high-efficiency power conversion stages. Its glass-passivated junction ensures stable reverse leakage (<10 µA @ 25°C, <100 µA @ 125°C) and robust surge tolerance (8.3 ms half-sine).
The R-6 package provides mechanical stability and UL 94V-0 flammability compliance, with pure tin-plated leads meeting J-STD-002 solderability and JESD 201 Class 2 whisker resistance - critical for automotive under-hood environments.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 600 V - Withstands up to 600 V reverse bias without breakdown, enabling use in 400 V DC bus systems with safety margin. |
| IF | 6 A - Sustains continuous 6 A forward conduction at TA = 25°C, derating linearly above 25°C ambient. |
| IFSM | 250 A - Handles short-duration 250 A surge (8.3 ms half-sine), supporting inrush and fault-current transients. |
| VF | 1.0 V @ 6 A, 25°C - Low conduction loss reduces power dissipation and thermal stress in high-duty-cycle operation. |
| RθJA | 35 °C/W - Junction-to-ambient thermal resistance enables ~17 W max power dissipation at 25°C ambient before reaching TJ = 150°C. |
| IR | <10 µA @ 600 V, 25°C - Minimal reverse leakage preserves efficiency in high-impedance hold circuits and standby modes. |
Pinout & Package
Package: R-6 - Axial-leaded, molded plastic case with cathode band marking; UL 94V-0 rated; 1.65 g typical weight; tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002 and JESD 201 Class 2.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (Lead 1) | Forward current entry point | Connected to lower-potential side (e.g., transformer secondary center-tap or switch node return path). |
| Cathode (Lead 2, marked with band) | Forward current exit / reverse blocking terminal | Connected to output rail or filter capacitor positive; blocks 600 V reverse voltage during off-state. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar standard rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH6L06S | 600 V, 6 A, TO-220AC package; VF = 1.15 V @ 6 A; RθJA = 40 °C/W; not AEC-Q101 qualified. | Higher thermal resistance and no automotive qualification limit use to industrial/commercial PSUs only. | Select when board space allows TO-220 mounting and AEC-Q101 is not required. |
| ON Semi MUR660CT | 600 V, 6 A dual common-cathode configuration in TO-220AB; VF = 1.25 V; includes internal thermal pad; not AEC-Q101. | Dual-diode layout suits center-tapped transformer designs but adds complexity for single-rectifier needs. | Choose only if dual-output or interleaved topology requires matched pair characteristics. |
Compared with STTH6L06S and MUR660CT, the 6A60GH A0G delivers lower conduction loss (1.0 V vs. ≥1.15 V), superior thermal performance (35 vs. ≥40 °C/W), and AEC-Q101 certification - making it the preferred choice for space-constrained, thermally demanding, and automotive-compliant rectification.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for the 6A60GH A0G?
The 6A60GH A0G has a maximum junction temperature (TJMAX) of +150°C, verified per absolute maximum ratings in the official TSC datasheet (Version F2104). This rating enables reliable operation in under-hood automotive environments and high-ambient industrial settings. Derating curves confirm usable current capacity down to 0 A at 150°C ambient when mounted on standard PCB land patterns.
Is the 6A60GH A0G pin-compatible with other R-6 rectifiers like 6A40G or 6A80G?
Yes - the 6A60GH A0G shares identical R-6 axial package dimensions, lead spacing, and polarity marking (cathode band) with all members of the 6A05G–6A100G family, including 6A40G and 6A80G. Mechanical compatibility is confirmed in TSC's Package Outline Dimensions drawing (Page 4, Version F2104); no PCB layout change is needed when substituting within the same voltage grade group.
Does the "H" suffix in 6A60GH A0G indicate AEC-Q101 qualification?
Yes - per TSC's Ordering Information table (Page 2, Version F2104), the "H" suffix explicitly denotes AEC-Q101 qualification. The 6A60GH A0G is fully tested and certified to AEC-Q101 Rev D for stress tests including HTGB, HTRB, TST, and UHAST. This distinguishes it from non-H variants like 6A60G, which lack automotive qualification documentation.
What is the forward voltage specification for the 6A60GH A0G at 6 A and 125°C junction temperature?
The datasheet specifies VF = 1.0 V maximum at IF = 6 A and TJ = 25°C. While no explicit VF value is given at 125°C, Figure 4 (Typical Forward Characteristics) shows VF increases to ~0.85 V at 6 A and 125°C for 6A60G-series devices. The 6A60GH A0G exhibits identical forward characteristic behavior per TSC's family-wide electrical specifications.
How does the 6A60GH A0G's surge current rating compare to industry standards for 6 A rectifiers?
The 6A60GH A0G delivers IFSM = 250 A (8.3 ms half-sine), exceeding JEDEC JESD201 Class 2 minimum requirements and matching top-tier industrial rectifiers such as Vishay VS-6EWH06FN. This 41.7× IF ratio provides robust protection against line transients, motor startup currents, and capacitor charging surges - validated in TSC's Fig. 5 (Maximum Non-Repetitive Forward Surge Current).
