Product details
Overview
ES1FH from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 1A, 400V super fast recovery surface-mount rectifier in DO-214AC (SMA) package, featuring 35ns reverse recovery time, 1.30V max forward voltage at 1A/25°C, and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive-grade reliability. It serves as a freewheeling or snubber diode in DC-DC converters and car lighting systems.
For engineers reviewing the ES1FH datasheet, ES1FH pinout, ES1FH application, or ES1FH equivalent, key selection criteria include its 400V VRRM, 30A IFSM, 150°C TJ rating, glass-passivated junction, and J-STD-020 Level 1 moisture sensitivity - all critical for high-efficiency, thermally constrained automotive power designs.
Technical Context
The ES1FH operates as a single-die, unidirectional silicon rectifier with super-fast switching optimized for reduced switching losses in high-frequency power conversion. Its 35ns trr and 18pF junction capacitance at 1MHz/4V support stable operation up to several hundred kHz in flyback and buck-derived topologies.
Designed for automotive environments, the ES1FH meets AEC-Q101 stress test requirements and features matte tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002 solderability, JESD201 Class 2 whisker resistance, and UL 94V-0 molding compound - enabling robust automated assembly and long-term field reliability.

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-ES1FH-M3/5BT | Same VRRM (400V), identical DO-214AC package, 35ns trr, but 1.25V max VF @ 1A/25°C (slightly lower conduction loss) | Also AEC-Q101 qualified; tighter VF distribution supports more predictable thermal modeling | Preferred where margin in forward drop is critical; same footprint and assembly process |
| ON Semiconductor MUR140HE3/73 | 400V VRRM, 1A IF, but 50ns trr and 1.3V VF; TO-220AC package (not surface-mount) | Larger thermal mass and through-hole mounting - suited for prototyping or legacy board upgrades, not high-density SMT | Consider only if DO-214AC footprint is unavailable; requires PCB redesign and manual soldering |
Compared with VS-ES1FH-M3/5BT and MUR140HE3/73, the ES1FH offers optimal balance of automotive qualification, SMT compatibility, and 35ns switching speed - making it the preferred choice for new automotive power designs requiring high-frequency efficiency and zero rework risk.

FAQ
What is the maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM) for ES1FH?
The ES1FH has a VRRM of 400 V, meaning it can reliably block up to 400 volts in reverse bias without breakdown. This rating is confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table of the official Taiwan Semiconductor datasheet (Version B2112) and applies under standard test conditions (TA = 25°C). The ES1FH is part of the ES1AH–ES1JH series where "F" explicitly denotes the 400V variant.
Is ES1FH qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, ES1FH is AEC-Q101 qualified, as stated in the FEATURES section of the official Taiwan Semiconductor documentation. This qualification covers stress tests including high-temperature reverse bias, temperature cycling, and mechanical shock - confirming suitability for under-hood and safety-critical automotive subsystems such as lighting and engine control.
What is the forward voltage (VF) specification for ES1FH at rated current?
The ES1FH has a maximum forward voltage of 1.30 V at IF = 1 A and TJ = 25°C, per the Electrical Specifications table. This value is measured under pulsed conditions (PW = 0.3 ms) and represents worst-case conduction loss for thermal design. At elevated junction temperatures, VF decreases slightly due to semiconductor physics.
Does ES1FH have a defined reverse recovery time (trr)?
Yes, ES1FH has a specified reverse recovery time of 35 ns, measured under standardized conditions: IF = 0.5 A, IR = 1.0 A, and Irr = 0.25 A. This parameter is listed in the Electrical Specifications table and confirms its classification as a super fast rectifier - critical for minimizing switching loss in high-frequency power supplies.
What package type does ES1FH use, and is it RoHS-compliant?
ES1FH uses the DO-214AC (SMA) surface-mount package with matte tin-plated leads and UL 94V-0 molding compound. It is fully RoHS-compliant and halogen-free per IEC 61249-2-21, as documented in the FEATURES section. The device also carries J-STD-020 Level 1 moisture sensitivity - eliminating bake requirements prior to reflow soldering.
