Product details
Overview
ES2AAH from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 2A, 50V super fast surface-mount rectifier in DO-214AC (SMA) package, featuring 35ns reverse recovery time, 0.95V forward voltage at 2A/25°C, and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive use in DC-DC converters and freewheeling circuits.
For engineers reviewing the ES2AAH datasheet, ES2AAH pinout, ES2AAH application, or ES2AAH equivalent, key selection criteria include repetitive peak reverse voltage (50V), surge current rating (50A), junction temperature range (−55°C to +150°C), thermal resistance (RθJL = 20°C/W), and RoHS/halogen-free compliance.
Technical Context
The ES2AAH employs a single-die, glass-passivated PN junction optimized for high-efficiency switching in low-voltage power conversion. Its 35ns trr and 0.95V VF at 2A enable reduced switching losses in high-frequency DC-DC topologies.
Designed for automotive-grade reliability, the ES2AAH meets AEC-Q101 stress test requirements and features moisture sensitivity level 1 (J-STD-020), matte tin-plated leads (J-STD-002), and JESD201 Class 2 whisker resistance - all verified under its DO-214AC mechanical construction.
Key Specifications

| VRRM | 50 V - Maximum repetitive reverse blocking voltage; defines safe operating ceiling in clamping/snubber circuits |
| IF | 2 A - Continuous average forward current; supports compact heatsinking in space-constrained automotive modules |
| trr | 35 ns - Measured at IF=0.5A, IR=1.0A, Irr=0.25A; enables >1 MHz switching in synchronous rectification |
| VF | 0.95 V @ 2A, 25°C - Low conduction loss improves efficiency in 12V/24V automotive power rails |
| RθJL | 20 °C/W - Junction-to-lead thermal resistance; allows direct PCB copper pour thermal coupling without external heatsink |
| IFSM | 50 A - Non-repetitive peak surge current (8.3ms half-sine); withstands load dump transients in vehicle electrical systems |

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-2EYH05-M3/45 | Same DO-214AC package, 50V VRRM, but 50ns trr and 1.05V VF @ 2A | Higher VF increases conduction loss; less suitable for high-efficiency 12V systems | Acceptable where cost sensitivity outweighs 0.1V VF penalty and 15ns slower recovery is tolerable |
| ON Semiconductor MUR250E | DO-201AD package (larger), 50V VRRM, 35ns trr, but 1.15V VF @ 2A and no AEC-Q101 qualification | Larger footprint limits layout density; lacks automotive qualification for underhood use | Only for non-automotive industrial applications where space and qualification are not constraints |
Compared with VS-2EYH05-M3/45 and MUR250E, the ES2AAH delivers the lowest forward voltage (0.95V) and maintains AEC-Q101 compliance in the smallest DO-214AC footprint - making it optimal for space- and efficiency-critical automotive power stages.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for ES2AAH?
The ES2AAH has a maximum junction temperature (TJ) rating of +150°C, with an operational range from −55°C to +150°C. This rating is validated under AEC-Q101 stress testing and supports reliable operation in underhood automotive environments. The ES2AAH's RθJL of 20°C/W enables effective thermal transfer to the PCB, helping maintain safe junction temperatures even at full 2A continuous current.
Is ES2AAH qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, the ES2AAH is AEC-Q101 qualified, confirming its suitability for automotive applications including engine control units, lighting modules, and body electronics. This qualification covers temperature cycling, high-temperature reverse bias, and humidity testing. The ES2AAH also features moisture sensitivity level 1 and matte tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002 - all critical for automotive manufacturing and field reliability.
What is the reverse recovery time (trr) of ES2AAH and how is it measured?
The ES2AAH has a 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 value is specified in the official Taiwan Semiconductor datasheet (Version A2102) and reflects performance at 25°C ambient. The ES2AAH's 35 ns trr contributes directly to reduced switching losses in high-frequency DC-DC converters.
Does ES2AAH have RoHS and halogen-free compliance?
Yes, the ES2AAH is RoHS compliant and halogen-free per IEC 61249-2-21. These environmental qualifications are explicitly stated in the Taiwan Semiconductor product documentation and verified through material declarations. The ES2AAH's halogen-free status applies to the molding compound and plating, supporting compliance in automotive and industrial end-equipment with strict chemical restrictions.
What package type does ES2AAH use and what are its key mechanical attributes?
The ES2AAH uses the DO-214AC (SMA) surface-mount package, with dimensions conforming to JEDEC standards. Key mechanical attributes include UL 94V-0 rated epoxy molding, cathode polarity indicated by a visible band, matte tin-plated solderable leads (J-STD-002), JESD201 Class 2 whisker resistance, and a typical weight of 0.060 g. These attributes ensure compatibility with automated placement and reflow processes used in automotive electronics manufacturing.
