Product details
Overview
APD160VH-G1 from BCD Semiconductor Manufacturing Limited is a Schottky barrier rectifier in R-1 package (DO-214AC equivalent), rated for 60 V repetitive peak reverse voltage, 1.0 A average forward current, and 35 A non-repetitive surge current. It delivers low 0.68 V forward voltage at 1.0 A, enabling high-efficiency operation in DC-DC converters and polarity protection circuits.
For engineers reviewing the APD160VH-G1 datasheet, APD160VH-G1 pinout, APD160VH-G1 application, or APD160VH-G1 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 60 V VRRM rating, 0.68 V VF at 1.0 A, 35 A IFSM surge capability, R-1 (DO-214AC) package thermal resistance of 100 °C/W, and green RoHS-compliant packaging.
Technical Context
This discrete Schottky diode operates as a unidirectional power rectifier with metal–semiconductor junction architecture, optimized for high-frequency switching applications. Its low forward voltage drop and fast recovery characteristics minimize conduction and switching losses in compact power supplies.
The device exhibits 10 mA reverse leakage at rated 60 V blocking voltage and 100 °C junction temperature, and maintains stable performance across –65 °C to +125 °C operating range. Junction capacitance is 91 pF at 4 V reverse bias, supporting efficient high-frequency rectification.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Schottky rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SB160-E3/52T (Vishay) | Same 60 V VRRM, 1.0 A IF(AV), but VF = 0.75 V @ 1.0 A; DO-41 package (θJA = 80 °C/W) | Better thermal performance in leaded through-hole layouts; higher VF increases conduction loss | Select when board layout mandates axial-leaded DO-41 and thermal margin exists |
| SS16 (ON Semiconductor) | 60 V VRRM, 1.0 A IF(AV), VF = 0.72 V @ 1.0 A; SMA package (DO-214AC), same footprint as R-1 | Identical mounting and thermal interface; slightly higher VF impacts efficiency at full load | Choose for second-source availability with no PCB redesign required |
Compared with SB160-E3/52T and SS16, APD160VH-G1 offers the lowest VF (0.68 V) in DO-214AC-compatible R-1 packaging, delivering superior efficiency in space-constrained surface-mount DC-DC designs where thermal resistance of 100 °C/W is acceptable.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature for continuous operation of APD160VH-G1?
The APD160VH-G1 has a specified operating junction temperature range of –65 °C to +125 °C. For continuous reliability, derating curves indicate that at ambient temperatures above 70 °C, average forward current must be reduced below 1.0 A to maintain TJ ≤ 125 °C, based on its 100 °C/W θJA in R-1 package.
Is APD160VH-G1 suitable for use in automotive applications?
Yes - APD160VH-G1 meets AEC-Q101 stress test requirements for discrete semiconductors (per BCD's qualification report Q101-2021-APD160). Its –65 °C to +125 °C operating range, 35 A surge rating, and green RoHS packaging support under-hood and infotainment power supply use, provided board-level thermal design maintains TJ within limits.
How does the R-1 package compare electrically to DO-214AC?
R-1 is BCD's proprietary designation for a package dimensionally and electrically identical to industry-standard DO-214AC (SMA). Pinout, thermal resistance (100 °C/W), solder footprint, and mechanical dimensions match exactly - enabling direct substitution without layout changes.
What is the reverse recovery time of APD160VH-G1?
Schottky barrier rectifiers like APD160VH-G1 have no minority-carrier storage, so reverse recovery time is effectively zero. The device exhibits only junction capacitance discharge delay (~1–2 ns), confirmed by typical reverse recovery waveform data in Figure 6 of the datasheet, making it ideal for >100 kHz switching applications.
