Product details

Overview

EGP10GHE3/53 from Vishay General Semiconductor is a glass-passivated ultrafast plastic rectifier diode in DO-41 package, rated for 400 V repetitive peak reverse voltage (V_RRM), 1.0 A average forward current (I_F(AV)), and 50 ns reverse recovery time (t_rr), used in high-frequency freewheeling and output rectification in SMPS for telecom and computing power supplies.

For engineers reviewing the EGP10GHE3/53 datasheet, EGP10GHE3/53 pinout, EGP10GHE3/53 application, or EGP10GHE3/53 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 400 V blocking capability, low 1.25 V forward voltage at 1.0 A, 30 A surge rating, 150 °C max junction temperature, and DO-41 mechanical compatibility with legacy through-hole power designs.

Technical Context

This device implements a single-die Superectifier® structure with cavity-free glass-passivated junction, enabling stable ultrafast switching performance under thermal stress. Its 50 ns reverse recovery time and low 15 pF junction capacitance (at 4.0 V, 1 MHz) support operation in 100–500 kHz switching converters without excessive switching loss.

The EGP10GHE3/53 operates across –65 °C to +150 °C junction temperature range and sustains 30 A non-repetitive surge current (8.3 ms half-sine), making it suitable for transient-heavy output stages where reliability under overload is critical. Its matte tin-plated leads meet J-STD-002 solderability and JESD 201 Class 1A whisker resistance requirements.

Key Specifications

V_RRM	400 V - supports DC bus rectification in 277 VAC input SMPS and 380 VDC intermediate bus applications
I_F(AV)	1.0 A at 55 °C ambient with 0.375" lead length - defines continuous conduction mode (CCM) output stage capability
t_rr	50 ns - enables efficient operation up to ~500 kHz without significant reverse recovery loss
V_F	1.25 V at 1.0 A - contributes to <1.25 W conduction loss per diode at full load
I_FSM	30 A - withstands inrush and short-circuit transients in offline AC/DC adapters

Equivalent & Alternatives

The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar ultrafast rectifier applications.

Alternative Part	Technical Difference	Application Difference	Selection Advice
STTH1L06U	TO-220AC package, 600 V V_RRM, 1.05 V V_F @ 1 A, 55 ns t_rr	Higher voltage rating but larger footprint; requires heatsink for >0.5 A continuous	Preferred when higher voltage margin or surface-mount replacement is needed

FAQ

What is the maximum junction temperature rating for EGP10GHE3/53?

The EGP10GHE3/53 has a maximum junction temperature (T_J(max)) of +150 °C, verified per Vishay Document Number 88582. This rating allows operation in thermally demanding environments such as enclosed power supplies or high-ambient industrial settings. Derating curves in the datasheet define safe current limits above 55 °C ambient. The EGP10GHE3/53 maintains parameter stability up to this limit when mounted with standard 0.375" lead length.

Is EGP10GHE3/53 RoHS-compliant and lead-free?

Yes, the EGP10GHE3/53 is RoHS-compliant and lead-free, as confirmed by the "E3" suffix in its part number and Vishay's material categorization documentation (www.vishay.com/doc?99912). Its matte tin-plated leads meet JESD 201 Class 1A whisker resistance requirements and are compatible with Pb-free soldering processes up to 275 °C for 10 seconds.

What does the "HE3/53" suffix mean in EGP10GHE3/53?

The "HE3/53" suffix indicates tape-and-reel packaging: "E3" denotes RoHS-compliant commercial-grade construction, and "53" specifies the preferred package code for 13" diameter paper tape and reel with 5500 units per reel. This matches Vishay's ordering information table in Document 88582, confirming EGP10GHE3/53 is supplied in standardized logistics format for automated assembly.

Can EGP10GHE3/53 replace EGP10DHE3/54 in an existing design?

EGP10GHE3/53 can replace EGP10DHE3/54 only if the circuit requires 400 V reverse blocking instead of 200 V. Both share identical DO-41 package, 1.0 A I_F(AV), and 50 ns t_rr, but V_RRM differs (400 V vs. 200 V). Substitution is electrically safe in higher-voltage designs but may incur unnecessary cost in 200 V applications. Always verify voltage stress margins before interchange.

Why is EGP10GHE3/53 marked "Not for New Designs"?

Vishay marks EGP10GHE3/53 "Not for New Designs" (per Revision 06-Oct-2021 datasheet) to indicate prioritization of newer surface-mount alternatives like TMBS or Schottky arrays for next-generation layouts. However, the device remains fully manufactured, stocked, and supported for legacy through-hole designs, with no announced discontinuance or last-time-buy notice as of current documentation.
