Product details
Overview
ES1H from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 500 V repetitive peak reverse voltage, 1 A average forward current super fast surface-mount rectifier in DO-214AC (SMA) package, with 1.70 V max forward voltage at 1 A and 35 ns reverse recovery time, used for freewheeling and snubber functions in DC-DC converters.
For engineers reviewing the ES1H datasheet, ES1H pinout, ES1H application, or ES1H equivalent, key selection criteria include its 500 V VRRM, 1.70 V VF at 1 A, 35 ns trr, DO-214AC thermal performance (RθJL = 35 °C/W), and suitability for high-efficiency switching mode inverters.
Technical Context
The ES1H is a single-die, silicon planar junction super fast recovery rectifier optimized for high-frequency switching applications. Its 35 ns reverse recovery time and low junction capacitance (18 pF at 1 MHz, 4 V) minimize switching losses and EMI generation in power conversion stages.
Designed with glass passivated chip junction and matte tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002, the ES1H operates across -55 °C to +150 °C junction temperature range and meets JESD 201 Class 2 whisker resistance and UL 94V-0 flammability requirements.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 500 V - supports DC bus voltages up to 350 V RMS in bridge or freewheeling configurations |
| IF | 1 A continuous - rated for sustained conduction in compact SMPS output stages |
| VF (max) | 1.70 V @ 1 A, 25 °C - limits conduction loss to ≤1.7 W per device at full load |
| trr | 35 ns - enables operation at ≥500 kHz switching frequencies with low recovery loss |
| CJ | 18 pF @ 1 MHz, 4 V - reduces capacitive coupling noise in high-dv/dt gate drive or snubber circuits |
| RθJL | 35 °C/W - allows direct PCB copper pad heat sinking without heatsink for ≤0.5 W dissipation |
| IFSM | 30 A @ 8.3 ms - withstands typical inrush and fault currents in 12–48 V DC systems |
Pinout & Package
DO-214AC (SMA) surface-mount package with cathode-indicated band; molded epoxy case rated UL 94V-0; matte tin-plated leads; polarity marked by cathode band on body.

| Anode | Forward current entry node | Connected to lower-potential side (e.g., switch node in buck freewheel path) |
| Cathode | Forward current exit node / reverse blocking terminal | Connected to higher-potential rail; cathode band identifies this terminal visually and in layout |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|

Applications
| DC-DC Converter Output Rectification | Snubber Network Diode |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Secondary-side rectification in isolated flyback or forward converters delivering 5–24 V at ≤1 A. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Unidirectional current conduction path during transformer reset phase; blocks reverse voltage during primary switch ON time. Use Value: 1.70 V VF minimizes conduction loss; 35 ns trr prevents cross-conduction loss with synchronous MOSFETs in quasi-resonant designs. | Use Scenario: RCD snubber across MOSFET drain-source in offline SMPS or motor drives. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Fast clamping diode that conducts transient energy into capacitor during voltage spike events. Use Value: 500 V VRRM and 35 ns trr ensure reliable clamping without oscillation or delayed turn-on during rapid dv/dt transients. |
| Freewheeling Diode in Buck Regulator | Lighting Driver Freewheel Path |
Use Scenario: Low-side freewheeling path in non-synchronous buck regulators powering FPGA core rails or LED drivers. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Provides current continuity path when high-side switch turns OFF; conducts only during OFF-time. Use Value: 1 A IF rating matches typical buck inductor ripple; DO-214AC thermal resistance supports ambient temperatures up to 85 °C without derating. | Use Scenario: Freewheeling element in constant-current LED driver ICs for architectural or automotive lighting. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Completes inductive current loop during PWM OFF periods; handles repetitive 100–1000 Hz switching. Use Value: 150 °C TJMAX and 18 pF CJ prevent thermal runaway and capacitive feedthrough in high-density LED modules. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar super fast rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH1L06U (STMicroelectronics) | 600 V VRRM, 1.05 V VF @ 1 A, 30 ns trr, same DO-214AC package | Slightly lower VF improves efficiency in low-VOUT designs; tighter trr margin for >1 MHz operation | Select when lower conduction loss or higher frequency operation is prioritized over cost |
| MBR150 (ON Semiconductor) | 50 V VRRM, 0.85 V VF @ 1 A, Schottky architecture, no reverse recovery | Not suitable for 500 V blocking; limited to ≤35 V DC bus; zero Qrr eliminates recovery loss entirely | Choose only for low-voltage (<40 V) applications where ultra-low VF and zero trr outweigh voltage limitation |
Compared with STTH1L06U, ES1H offers lower cost and sufficient 500 V rating for 375 V DC link use, while MBR150 is not a voltage-compatible alternative but serves distinct low-VIN niches where Schottky advantages apply.

FAQ
What is the maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM) for ES1H?
The ES1H has a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM) of 500 V, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This rating ensures reliable blocking capability in applications with DC bus voltages up to approximately 350 V RMS, such as offline SMPS front-end rectification or high-voltage buck-derived outputs. The ES1H datasheet confirms this value applies exclusively to the ES1H marking code.
What is the forward voltage (VF) of ES1H at 1 A and 25 °C?
The ES1H exhibits a maximum forward voltage (VF) of 1.70 V at 1 A forward current and 25 °C junction temperature, per the Electrical Specifications table. This value is measured under pulsed conditions (PW = 0.3 ms) and defines worst-case conduction loss-critical for thermal design in compact power stages where the ES1H is commonly deployed.
Does ES1H have a specified reverse recovery time (trr)?
Yes, the ES1H has a maximum reverse recovery time (trr) of 35 ns, tested at IF = 0.5 A, IR = 1.0 A, and Irr = 0.25 A. This parameter is explicitly listed in the Electrical Specifications section and distinguishes ES1H as a "super fast" rectifier suitable for switching frequencies above 300 kHz, unlike standard or fast recovery diodes.
What package type does ES1H use, and what are its key mechanical attributes?
The ES1H uses the DO-214AC (SMA) surface-mount package, confirmed in Mechanical Data and Ordering Information sections. Key attributes include UL 94V-0 rated molding compound, matte tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002, cathode polarity indicated by a band, and a weight of approximately 0.060 g. The package supports automated placement and meets JESD 201 Class 2 whisker resistance.
Is ES1H RoHS and halogen-free compliant?
Yes, ES1H is RoHS compliant and halogen-free per IEC 61249-2-21, as stated in the FEATURES section. This compliance is verified for the entire ES1A–ES1J family, including ES1H, and applies to all homogeneous materials in the device-ensuring suitability for export-controlled and environmentally regulated end equipment.
