Product details
Overview
APT100D60B2G from Microsemi is an ultrasoft recovery 600V, 100A rectifier diode in TO-247 package, optimized for ZVS/ZCS topologies and resonant-mode SMPS. It delivers 487 ns reverse recovery time (trr) at 100A/–200A/µs, 2328 nC Qrr at 25°C, and 1.25–1.6 V forward voltage at 100A, enabling snubberless operation in high-frequency inverters.
For engineers reviewing the APT100D60B2G datasheet, APT100D60B2G pinout, APT100D60B2G application, or APT100D60B2G equivalent, key selection criteria include soft recovery performance under high diF/dt, thermal resistance (RθJC = 0.34°C/W), junction temperature range (–55°C to +175°C), and compatibility with phase-shifted bridge and induction heating designs.
Technical Context
This diode employs a proprietary ultra-soft recovery structure to minimize reverse recovery current overshoot and ringing. Its trr remains stable across wide diF/dt ranges (100–1000 A/µs) and junction temperatures (25°C to 125°C), supporting reliable zero-voltage switching in hard-switched and resonant converters.
Designed for anti-parallel use with IGBTs/MOSFETs, it sustains 600V blocking capability while maintaining low leakage (25 µA at 600V, 25°C) and low junction capacitance (97 pF at 200V). The TO-247 package provides direct heat sink mounting via cathode tab and supports high RMS current (131 A) under 50% duty cycle square wave conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VR / VRRM | 600 V DC / peak repetitive reverse voltage - enables use in 400V AC input rectification and 600V bus applications without derating. |
| IF(AV) | 100 A at TC = 124°C, 50% duty - supports continuous conduction mode operation in high-power industrial PSUs. |
| trr (100A, –200A/µs) | 487 ns at 25°C - ensures minimal turn-off loss and EMI in 50–100 kHz resonant converters. |
| Qrr (100A, –200A/µs) | 2328 nC at 25°C - reduces switching stress on companion switches and eliminates need for external snubbers. |
| VF (100A) | 1.25–1.6 V - lowers conduction loss and improves system efficiency vs. standard fast recovery diodes. |
| RθJC | 0.34 °C/W - allows direct thermal coupling to heatsink for high-power density layouts without forced air. |

Pinout & Package
APT100D60B2G uses the industry-standard TO-247 package with isolated metal tab (cathode). Mounting torque: 10 lb·in (1.1 N·m). Cathode is electrically connected to the case and must be insulated from heatsink unless referenced to system ground.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Lead) | Anode | Connects to positive side of AC input or switch node; carries full forward current during conduction. |
| 2 (Lead) | Anode | Second anode lead for parallel connection or enhanced current sharing; not internally redundant. |
| Case (Back) | Cathode | Primary cathode terminal; thermally and electrically coupled to heatsink; requires insulating pad if heatsink is grounded. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultrasoft Recovery | trr ≤ 487 ns and IRRM ≤ 11 A at 100A/–200A/µs - suppresses voltage spikes and EMI in high-diF/dt switching. |
| Low Forward Voltage | VF = 1.25 V typ. at 100A, 25°C - reduces conduction losses by ~15% vs. standard FRDs with comparable rating. |
| High Thermal Conductivity | RθJC = 0.34°C/W - enables >100W dissipation with passive cooling in compact industrial power modules. |
| Robust Junction Temp Range | Rated for continuous operation up to +175°C - supports integration into sealed, high-ambient-temperature systems like EV chargers. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar ultra-soft recovery diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IXYS MBR10060CT | 600V/100A, TO-247, trr ≈ 65 ns (fast, not ultrasoft), Qrr ≈ 420 nC - significantly lower recovery charge but higher diF/dt sensitivity and ringing risk. | Better for hard-switched PFC stages; unsuitable for ZVS resonant topologies due to abrupt recovery edge. | Select only when low Qrr dominates over softness; verify snubber requirements in target topology. |
| Vishay VS-100BGH06 | 600V/100A, TO-247, trr = 500 ns (25°C), Qrr = 2500 nC - near-identical dynamic specs but higher VF (1.75 V typ.) and RθJC (0.45°C/W). | Acceptable drop-in for thermal-limited designs where 0.11°C/W higher thermal resistance is tolerable. | Prefer when supply chain diversification is needed; expect ~0.5 W higher conduction loss at 100A. |
Compared with MBR10060CT and VS-100BGH06, APT100D60B2G offers the lowest VF and best thermal resistance among 600V/100A ultrasoft diodes, making it optimal for high-efficiency, high-temperature, and snubberless resonant converter designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for APT100D60B2G?
The APT100D60B2G is rated for continuous operation from –55°C to +175°C junction temperature. This extended range supports deployment in sealed enclosures, high-ambient industrial environments, and automotive under-hood applications where thermal management is constrained. Derating curves in Figure 7 confirm 100A average current capability at TC = 124°C, validating its suitability for high-power-density designs.
Does APT100D60B2G have a built-in thermal protection feature?
No, APT100D60B2G is a passive rectifier diode and does not include integrated thermal protection circuitry. Thermal management relies entirely on external design - proper heatsinking, mounting torque (10 lb·in), and thermal interface material. Its RθJC of 0.34°C/W and 175°C max TJ enable robust thermal performance when implemented per Microsemi's mechanical recommendations in the datasheet.
Is APT100D60B2G pin-compatible with APT100DL60B(G)?
Yes, APT100D60B2G shares identical TO-247 pinout, mechanical dimensions, and terminal configuration with APT100DL60B(G). Both feature dual anode leads (pins 1 and 2) and cathode-connected case. The "2G" suffix denotes RoHS-compliant plating (e3: 100% Sn), whereas "G" indicates Pb-free finish per earlier revision - no electrical or layout changes are required for substitution.
What is the reverse recovery charge (Qrr) of APT100D60B2G at elevated temperature?
At TC = 125°C and test conditions IF = 100A, diF/dt = –200A/µs, VR = 400V, the APT100D60B2G exhibits Qrr = 5954 nC. This value - more than double the 2328 nC measured at 25°C - reflects increased minority carrier lifetime at high temperature and must be accounted for in snubber sizing and switch stress analysis for high-ambient designs.
Can APT100D60B2G be used in surface-mount designs?
No, APT100D60B2G is packaged exclusively in TO-247 and is not compatible with surface-mount assembly. For SMT implementation, Microsemi offers the functionally equivalent APT100DL60S(G) in D3PAK package. That variant shares identical electrical specifications but requires re-layout for thermal pad routing and different reflow profile validation.
