Product details
Overview
DTH8R06D from Diodes Incorporated is an 8A, 600V hyper-fast epitaxial rectifier diode in TO220AC package, optimized for high-efficiency SMPS output rectification and continuous conduction mode (CCM) PFC stages. It delivers 2.9V max forward voltage at 8A/25°C, 25ns max reverse recovery time, and 30μA max reverse leakage at 600V/25°C, enabling compact, thermally efficient power supplies for LED drivers and battery chargers.
For engineers reviewing the DTH8R06D datasheet, DTH8R06D pinout, DTH8R06D application, or DTH8R06D equivalent, key selection criteria include its soft hyper-fast switching behavior, 2°C/W junction-to-case thermal resistance, cathode-connected tab configuration, and suitability for 600V-class industrial and consumer offline power conversion where low QRR (150nC) and controlled IRM (7.2A) are critical.
Technical Context
This hyper-fast rectifier uses epitaxial silicon construction with glass passivation to achieve tightly controlled reverse recovery characteristics-tRR ≤ 25ns at IF = 0.5A, IRR = 0.25A-and soft recovery waveform essential for reducing EMI in high-frequency SMPS. Its 21.7mJ non-repetitive avalanche energy rating supports robust transient handling during surge events.
The device operates across –55°C to +175°C junction temperature range and features a cathode-connected metal tab for direct heatsink mounting. Thermal design is enabled by RθJC = 2°C/W and RθJL = 2°C/W, allowing effective power dissipation up to 8A average current under forced-air or adequately sized heatsink conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 600 V - Withstands peak reverse voltage in 400V AC mains-derived applications with safety margin. |
| IO | 8 A - Continuous DC output current capability at TA = 25°C with appropriate heatsinking. |
| VF (max) | 2.9 V @ 8A, 25°C - Directly impacts conduction loss and thermal load in high-current rectifier paths. |
| tRR (max) | 25 ns @ IF = 0.5A - Enables operation in >100 kHz SMPS without excessive switching loss or ringing. |
| IR (max) | 30 μA @ 600V, 25°C - Ensures minimal standby power loss in offline adapter primary-side snubbers or auxiliary supplies. |
| QRR | 150 nC @ 125°C - Low stored charge reduces turn-off losses and EMI generation in hard-switched topologies. |
| RθJC | 2 °C/W - Allows precise junction temperature estimation when mounted to heatsink via insulated or direct interface. |

Use Value: 150nC QRR and soft switching reduce filter component count and meet CISPR-11 Class B emissions limits. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-voltage hyper-fast rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH8R06DJ | Same 600V/8A rating; tRR = 35ns (max); VF = 2.7V (max) at 8A/25°C; TO220AC package. | Slightly slower recovery increases switching loss in >150kHz designs; higher IR at elevated temperature. | Acceptable where EMI margin exists and cost sensitivity outweighs 10ns tRR advantage. |
| IXYS MUR860E | 600V/8A ultrafast rectifier; tRR = 50ns (max); VF = 2.8V (max); TO220AC; higher QRR (~220nC). | Less suitable for CCM PFC due to harder recovery and higher stored charge. | Preferred only in lower-frequency (<80kHz) or less noise-sensitive applications with legacy design reuse. |
Compared with STTH8R06DJ and IXYS MUR860E, DTH8R06D offers the lowest tRR (25ns) and QRR (150nC), making it optimal for high-frequency, low-EMI CCM PFC and compact SMPS where thermal and electrical efficiency are prioritized over legacy footprint compatibility.

FAQ
Is the DTH8R06D cathode-connected tab electrically isolated from the PCB mount surface?
No-the metal tab is internally bonded to the cathode terminal (Pin 2) and is not insulated. When mounting to a heatsink, electrical isolation (e.g., mica washer or silicone pad) is required unless the heatsink is referenced to cathode potential. The device's marking diagram confirms cathode connection to the tab.
What is the maximum allowable junction temperature during surge conditions?
The DTH8R06D supports a continuous operating junction temperature range of –55°C to +175°C. Under non-repetitive surge conditions (e.g., IFSM = 160A for 1ms), peak junction temperature must remain below +175°C, which requires limiting surge duty cycle and ensuring adequate thermal mass or heatsinking per JEDEC JESD24-10 guidelines.
Does DTH8R06D meet AEC-Q101 for automotive use?
No-DTH8R06D is not AEC-Q101 qualified. Diodes states that automotive-grade versions require specific change control, PPAP capability, and IATF 16949 manufacturing; this part is intended for industrial and consumer applications. For automotive designs, consult Diodes' AEC-Q101-qualified equivalents such as DTH8R06DHQ.
How does the 2.9V VF specification scale at elevated temperature?
VF decreases with rising junction temperature: typical VF is 1.8V at 8A/125°C (per datasheet Table "Electrical Characteristics"). This negative temperature coefficient helps balance thermal runaway risk in parallel configurations but requires derating conduction loss calculations using actual TJ rather than ambient.
