Product details
Overview
ES1AHR3G from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 1 A, 50 V super fast recovery surface-mount rectifier in DO-214AC (SMA) package, featuring 35 ns reverse recovery time, 0.95 V max forward voltage at 1 A, and 5 µA max reverse leakage at 25°C - used for freewheeling and snubber circuits in DC-DC converters.
For engineers reviewing the ES1AHR3G datasheet, ES1AHR3G pinout, ES1AHR3G application, or ES1AHR3G equivalent, key selection criteria include peak repetitive reverse voltage rating, thermal resistance (RθJL = 35°C/W), junction temperature range (–55°C to +150°C), and RoHS/halogen-free compliance for industrial power conversion designs.
Technical Context
This discrete silicon diode uses a glass-passivated PN junction optimized for high-frequency switching operation. Its super fast recovery (trr ≤ 35 ns) minimizes switching losses in hard-switched topologies, while the single-die DO-214AC configuration supports automated placement and reflow soldering per J-STD-002.
The device operates across –55°C to +150°C junction temperature, with RθJA = 85°C/W and RθJL = 35°C/W enabling thermal management in compact power stages. Moisture sensitivity level is J-STD-020 Level 1, and the cathode band provides unambiguous polarity identification.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Forward current (IF) | 1 A continuous - supports medium-power DC-DC output rectification without forced cooling |
| Peak reverse voltage (VRRM) | 50 V - suitable for low-voltage buck, flyback, and synchronous rectifier auxiliary rails |
| Reverse recovery time (trr) | 35 ns max - enables efficient operation up to ~500 kHz switching frequencies |
| Forward voltage (VF) | 0.95 V max at 1 A, 25°C - limits conduction loss to ≤0.95 W per diode in linear operation |
| Junction-to-lead thermal resistance | 35°C/W - allows direct PCB copper pour heat sinking to maintain TJ < 150°C at full IF |
| Reverse leakage (IR) | 5 µA max at 25°C, rated VR - ensures minimal standby power loss in high-impedance bias networks |
Pinout & Package

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar super fast rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vishay VS-ES1A-M3/5BT | Same DO-214AC package, identical 1 A / 50 V / 35 ns specs; VF = 0.93 V typ vs. 0.95 V max | No functional difference; qualified for automotive AEC-Q101 but not required for industrial use | Select if AEC-Q101 qualification or tighter VF distribution is needed |
| ON Semiconductor MUR105HE3/73 | Higher VRRM (50 V same), but VF = 1.05 V max and trr = 50 ns - slower, less efficient at high frequency | Acceptable in lower-frequency (<200 kHz) or cost-sensitive designs where efficiency margin is relaxed | Choose only when thermal budget allows higher conduction/switching loss |
Compared with VS-ES1A-M3/5BT and MUR105HE3/73, ES1AHR3G delivers optimal balance of low VF, fast trr, and industrial-grade reliability in DO-214AC - making it preferred for space-constrained, high-efficiency 300–500 kHz DC-DC and snubber applications.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for ES1AHR3G?
The ES1AHR3G has a maximum junction temperature (TJ) rating of +150°C and a minimum of –55°C. This wide operating range allows reliable deployment in industrial ambient conditions up to +85°C with appropriate PCB copper area for heat dissipation. The device's RθJL of 35°C/W supports thermal design using direct lead-to-copper thermal paths.
Does ES1AHR3G have a specified reverse recovery time, and how is it measured?
Yes, ES1AHR3G has a maximum reverse recovery time (trr) of 35 ns, measured under conditions of IF = 0.5 A, IR = 1.0 A, and Irr = 0.25 A. This parameter is critical for minimizing switching losses and EMI in high-frequency DC-DC converters. The test circuit and waveform are documented in Figure 6 of the official ES1A–ES1J datasheet (Version O2112).
Is ES1AHR3G compliant with RoHS and halogen-free standards?
Yes, ES1AHR3G is fully RoHS compliant and halogen-free per IEC 61249-2-21. The molding compound is UL 94V-0 rated, and the matte tin-plated leads meet J-STD-002 solderability requirements. These certifications are confirmed in the "Features" and "Mechanical Data" sections of the Taiwan Semiconductor ES1A–ES1J datasheet.
What is the marking code on the ES1AHR3G device body?
The ES1AHR3G is marked with "ES1A" on the device body, followed by a green compound indicator (G), date code (YW), and factory code (F), as shown in the Marking Diagram on page 5 of the ES1A–ES1J datasheet. This marking confirms its 50 V VRRM rating within the ES1x family.
Can ES1AHR3G be used in place of a standard FR107 rectifier?
No - ES1AHR3G is not a direct replacement for FR107. While both are DO-214AC rectifiers, FR107 has VRRM = 1000 V and trr ≈ 500 ns, whereas ES1AHR3G is rated for only 50 V and recovers in ≤35 ns. Substituting ES1AHR3G in a 1000 V application would cause immediate avalanche failure. Use only where 50 V VRRM and ultrafast recovery are required.
