Product details
Overview
EGP10GE-M3/54 from Vishay General Semiconductor is a glass-passivated ultrafast plastic rectifier diode in DO-41 package, rated for 400 V repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM), 1.0 A average forward current (IF(AV)), and 50 ns reverse recovery time (trr). It delivers low forward voltage drop (1.25 V at 1.0 A), low leakage (5.0 μA at 25 °C), and high surge capability (30 A IFSM), enabling efficient high-frequency freewheeling in SMPS and inverters.
For engineers reviewing the EGP10GE-M3/54 datasheet, EGP10GE-M3/54 pinout, EGP10GE-M3/54 application, or EGP10GE-M3/54 equivalent, key selection criteria include VRRM = 400 V, trr = 50 ns, VF = 1.25 V @ 1 A, TJ max = 150 °C, and DO-41 mechanical compatibility with lead-free soldering per J-STD-002.
Technical Context
This device implements a single-diode Superectifier® structure with cavity-free glass-passivated junction, engineered to minimize switching losses and enhance reliability under repetitive surge stress. Its ultrafast recovery (trr = 50 ns) and low junction capacitance (15 pF at 4.0 V, 1 MHz) support operation in high-frequency DC-DC converters above 100 kHz.
The DO-41 package provides robust thermal performance (RθJA = 50 °C/W) and mechanical stability, with matte tin-plated leads compliant to JESD 22-B102 solderability and JESD 201 Class 1A whisker testing. Polarity is marked by a cathode band on the glass body.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 400 V - supports input rectification in 277 VAC industrial supplies and 380 VDC bus systems |
| IF(AV) | 1.0 A at 55 °C with 0.375" lead length - suitable for medium-power output stage freewheeling |
| trr | 50 ns - enables efficient operation in 100–500 kHz switching converters with minimal tail current loss |
| VF | 1.25 V @ 1.0 A - reduces conduction loss vs. standard fast recovery diodes (typically ≥1.7 V) |
| IR | 5.0 μA @ 25 °C, 400 V - ensures low standby power loss in high-impedance hold-up circuits |
| TJ max | 150 °C - allows sustained operation in thermally constrained enclosures without derating below 100 °C ambient |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar ultrafast rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH1R04 | VRRM = 400 V, trr = 35 ns, VF = 1.30 V @ 1 A, DO-41 package | Lower trr improves light-load efficiency but higher VF increases conduction loss at full load | Prefer when switching frequency exceeds 400 kHz and thermal margin is sufficient |
| 1N4937G | VRRM = 600 V, trr = 200 ns, VF = 1.2 V @ 1 A, DO-41 package | Higher voltage rating trades off speed; unsuitable for >250 kHz designs due to excessive Qrr | Choose only if system requires >400 V blocking and operates ≤100 kHz |
Compared with STTH1R04 and 1N4937G, EGP10GE-M3/54 offers optimal balance of 400 V rating, 50 ns trr, and 1.25 V VF for 100–300 kHz industrial SMPS-delivering lower total loss than 1N4937G and better thermal stability than STTH1R04 under sustained 1 A load.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for EGP10GE-M3/54?
The EGP10GE-M3/54 has a maximum junction temperature (TJ max) of +150 °C, verified per Vishay Document Number 88582. This rating allows continuous operation in thermally demanding environments such as enclosed power supplies and industrial control cabinets. Derating begins above 55 °C ambient when mounted with 0.375" lead length, and the device maintains full IF(AV) = 1.0 A up to that point. The 150 °C limit reflects its glass-passivated junction construction and thermal resistance of 50 °C/W.
Is EGP10GE-M3/54 RoHS-compliant and lead-free solder compatible?
Yes, EGP10GE-M3/54 is RoHS-compliant (per base P/N-E3 designation) and features matte tin-plated leads qualified to J-STD-002 and JESD 22-B102 solderability standards. It supports lead-free reflow and wave soldering up to 275 °C for 10 seconds, consistent with JEDEC JESD22-B106. The "E3" suffix also confirms compliance with JESD 201 Class 1A whisker testing, ensuring long-term reliability in vibration-prone applications.
What does the "-M3/54" suffix indicate in EGP10GE-M3/54?
The "-M3/54" suffix identifies the packaging configuration: "M3" denotes tape-and-reel packaging per Vishay's standard carrier specification, and "/54" specifies a 13-inch diameter paper tape with 5500 units per reel. This matches the ordering information in Vishay Document 88582. The base part EGP10GE defines the electrical variant (400 V VRRM), while the full orderable number EGP10GE-M3/54 ensures correct logistics and assembly line feeding.
How does the 50 ns reverse recovery time of EGP10GE-M3/54 impact converter efficiency?
The 50 ns trr of EGP10GE-M3/54 directly reduces reverse recovery charge (Qrr), lowering switching losses in hard-switched topologies like flyback and forward converters operating between 100–300 kHz. At 200 kHz and 1 A load, this translates to ~15–20% less switching loss compared to standard fast recovery diodes with trr > 150 ns. Verified test data in Fig. 2 of Document 88582 confirms stable trr performance across temperature and current conditions, supporting consistent efficiency across operating range.
Can EGP10GE-M3/54 replace EGP10G in existing designs?
Yes, EGP10GE-M3/54 is functionally identical to EGP10G-the "E" suffix denotes the same 400 V VRRM, 1.0 A IF(AV), and 50 ns trr specifications per Vishay Document 88582. Both share DO-41 packaging, cathode band polarity, and thermal characteristics. The "-M3/54" denotes updated packaging format; electrical and mechanical behavior remains unchanged, enabling drop-in replacement without layout or firmware modification.
