Product details
Overview
BA158GH from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 1A, 600V fast recovery rectifier diode in DO-204AL (DO-41) package, featuring 150ns reverse recovery time, 1.2V max forward voltage at 1A, and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive-grade reliability. It serves as a primary output rectifier in switching-mode power supplies where low conduction loss and fast switching are required.
For engineers reviewing the BA158GH datasheet, BA158GH pinout, BA158GH application, or BA158GH equivalent, key selection criteria include its 600V VRRM, AEC-Q101 qualification status, 30A IFSM surge rating, thermal resistance of 60°C/W, and compatibility with automated tape-and-reel assembly due to its DO-41 packaging.
Technical Context
This device employs a single-die, glass-passivated PN junction optimized for fast recovery (trr = 150 ns) under IF = 0.5A / IR = 1.0A / Irr = 0.25A test conditions. Its 600V repetitive peak reverse voltage and 420V RMS reverse voltage support use in 230VAC input-derived DC-DC stages.
The BA158GH operates across –55°C to +150°C junction temperature range, with 5µA max reverse leakage at 25°C and 100µA at 125°C, enabling stable performance in thermally constrained automotive cabin and engine bay environments.
Key Specifications

| VRRM | 600 V - supports 230VAC-derived 400–500V DC bus designs with margin |
| IF | 1 A continuous - suitable for low-to-medium power SMPS outputs up to ~12W |
| trr | 150 ns - enables efficient operation in 50–200 kHz switching converters |
| VF (max) | 1.2 V @ 1A, 25°C - limits conduction loss to ≤1.2W at full load |
| IFSM | 30 A (8.3ms half-sine) - withstands cold-start inrush and transient surges |
| RθJA | 60 °C/W - requires minimal heatsinking on standard FR-4 PCB with 1 cm² copper pour |
| Junction temp | –55°C to +150°C - qualified for under-hood automotive applications per AEC-Q101 |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar fast recovery rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH1R06 | Same 1A/600V rating; trr = 120ns (faster), RθJA = 75°C/W (higher thermal resistance) | Better switching efficiency but higher junction temperature rise at same PCB layout | Prefer STTH1R06 when optimizing for <100ns trr; verify thermal margin with 75°C/W RθJA |
| ON Semi MUR106 | Same 1A/600V; trr = 75ns; not AEC-Q101 qualified; VF = 1.7V (higher conduction loss) | Lower-cost industrial alternative without automotive qualification or low-VF advantage | Select MUR106 only for non-automotive, cost-driven designs where 1.7V VF is acceptable |
Compared with STTH1R06 and MUR106, the BA158GH uniquely combines AEC-Q101 qualification, 1.2V low forward voltage, and 150ns recovery-making it optimal for space-constrained, thermally demanding automotive and industrial power supplies where reliability and efficiency must coexist.

FAQ
What is the peak repetitive reverse voltage rating of the BA158GH?
The BA158GH has a peak repetitive reverse voltage (VRRM) rating of 600 V. This value is specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table of the official Taiwan Semiconductor datasheet (Version I2106) and defines the maximum reverse-biased voltage the device can block continuously without breakdown. It provides design margin for 230VAC-derived 400–500V DC bus systems.
Is the BA158GH qualified to AEC-Q101 standards?
Yes, the BA158GH is explicitly AEC-Q101 qualified, as confirmed by the "H" suffix in its ordering code and stated in the Features section of the Taiwan Semiconductor datasheet. This qualification covers stress tests including HTSL, TC, UHAST, and mechanical shock, validating its suitability for automotive electronics such as body control modules and infotainment power supplies.
What is the reverse recovery time (trr) specification for the BA158GH?
The BA158GH has a maximum reverse recovery time (trr) of 150 ns, measured under IF = 0.5A, IR = 1.0A, and Irr = 0.25A conditions. This parameter is documented in the Electrical Specifications table (Page 2, Version I2106) and directly impacts switching loss in high-frequency SMPS designs operating up to 200 kHz.
Does the BA158GH have a specified forward voltage drop?
Yes, the BA158GH has a maximum forward voltage (VF) of 1.2 V at 1 A forward current and 25°C junction temperature. This value is specified in the Electrical Specifications table and reflects conduction loss under typical operating conditions-critical for calculating thermal rise and system efficiency in 1A-output power stages.
What package type does the BA158GH use, and is it lead-free?
The BA158GH uses the DO-204AL (DO-41) axial package with pure tin-plated leads, fully compliant with RoHS and halogen-free requirements per IEC 61249-2-21. The package weight is approximately 0.330 g, and the molding compound meets UL 94V-0 flammability rating-confirmed in the Mechanical Data section of the official datasheet.
