Product details
Overview
ES2LG from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 2A, 400V super fast surface-mount rectifier in DO-214AA (SMB) package, featuring 35ns reverse recovery time, 1.30V max forward voltage at 2A/25°C, and 50A surge capability - used in high-frequency switching mode power supplies for telecom and computing.
For engineers reviewing the ES2LG datasheet, ES2LG pinout, ES2LG application, or ES2LG equivalent, key selection factors include its 400V VRRM rating, thermal resistance (RθJL = 35°C/W), junction temperature range (–55°C to +150°C), and RoHS/halogen-free compliance for industrial-grade power conversion designs.
Technical Context
This single-die silicon rectifier uses glass-passivated junction technology to achieve super-fast recovery (trr ≤ 35ns) with low stored charge, enabling high-efficiency operation in DC-DC converters and freewheeling paths where switching frequencies exceed 100 kHz. Its DO-214AA package supports automated placement and meets J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1.
Thermal performance is characterized on a 16mm × 16mm copper pad PCB: RθJA = 80°C/W (ambient), RθJC = 25°C/W (case), and RθJL = 35°C/W (lead). Reverse leakage remains ≤10 µA at 25°C and ≤350 µA at 125°C under rated VRRM.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 400 V - maximum repetitive reverse voltage the device blocks without breakdown |
| IF | 2 A - continuous average forward current rating at TA = 75°C on standard PCB |
| trr | 35 ns - reverse recovery time enabling efficient operation above 100 kHz switching |
| VF (max) | 1.30 V @ 2A, 25°C - low conduction loss critical for thermal management in compact SMPS |
| IFSM | 50 A - non-repetitive surge current handling capability during startup or fault conditions |
| TJ (max) | +150°C - maximum junction temperature supporting reliable operation in enclosed industrial environments |
| CJ | 20 pF @ 1 MHz, 4 V - low junction capacitance minimizing switching noise and EMI generation |
Pinout & Package
DO-214AA (SMB) surface-mount package with cathode-indicated band; matte tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002 solderability and JESD 201 Class 2 whisker resistance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar super-fast rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH2R04 | Same 2A/400V rating; trr = 30ns (slightly faster); VF = 1.35V (slightly higher); DO-214AA package | Optimized for ultra-low Qrr in high-frequency PFC; tighter VF distribution | Prefer when minimizing reverse recovery charge is critical, especially in interleaved PFC designs |
| SS24HE3/57T | Lower VRRM (40V); Schottky architecture; VF = 0.52V; same DO-214AA footprint | Only suitable for low-voltage (<60V) outputs; no reverse recovery but limited blocking capability | Select only for secondary-side <60V rectification where ultra-low VF outweighs VRRM requirement |
Compared with STTH2R04 and SS24HE3/57T, the ES2LG offers balanced trade-offs: superior VRRM headroom versus Schottkys, better thermal robustness than many 400V competitors, and proven manufacturability in high-volume telecom and server power supplies.

FAQ
What is the maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM) for ES2LG?
The ES2LG has a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM) of 400 V, as confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table of the official Taiwan Semiconductor datasheet (Version C2102). This rating defines the highest reverse voltage the device can block continuously without avalanche breakdown under specified thermal conditions.
What is the forward voltage drop (VF) of ES2LG at rated current?
The ES2LG exhibits a maximum forward voltage drop (VF) of 1.30 V at 2 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 represents worst-case conduction loss for thermal design calculations.
Is ES2LG compatible with lead-free reflow soldering processes?
Yes, ES2LG is fully compatible with lead-free reflow soldering. Its matte tin-plated leads meet J-STD-002 solderability requirements, and the device is rated for moisture sensitivity level 1 per J-STD-020 - meaning it can be placed directly into reflow without pre-baking, even after extended dry-pack storage.
What package type does ES2LG use, and what are its mechanical identifiers?
ES2LG uses the DO-214AA (SMB) surface-mount package. Mechanical identifiers include a cathode band marking, UL 94V-0 compliant molding compound, 0.110 g typical weight, and JESD 201 Class 2 whisker-resistant terminations - all verified in the Mechanical Data section of the Taiwan Semiconductor datasheet.
How does ES2LG's reverse recovery time compare to standard fast rectifiers?
ES2LG achieves a reverse recovery time (trr) of ≤35 ns under IF = 0.5 A, IR = 1.0 A, and Irr = 0.25 A conditions - significantly faster than standard fast rectifiers (typically 100–500 ns). This enables reduced switching losses and improved efficiency in high-frequency power converters operating above 100 kHz.
