Product details
Overview
ES3CB-13-F from Diodes Incorporated is a 150 V, 3.0 A surface-mount super-fast rectifier diode in SMB package, featuring 25 ns reverse recovery time, 0.9 V forward voltage at 3.0 A, and 100 A non-repetitive surge capability - used in high-frequency AC/DC converters and switch-mode power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the ES3CB-13-F datasheet, ES3CB-13-F pinout, ES3CB-13-F application, or ES3CB-13-F equivalent, this part supports high-efficiency rectification in compact power stages where fast switching, low conduction loss, and thermal robustness are critical design requirements.
Technical Context
This super-fast rectifier employs glass-passivated die construction to ensure stable junction performance under repetitive surge stress. Its 25 ns reverse recovery time (measured at IF = 0.5 A, IR = 1.0 A, IRR = 0.25 A) enables operation in 100–500 kHz SMPS topologies without excessive switching loss.
The device exhibits 10 µA peak reverse current at 25°C and 500 µA at 125°C under rated 150 V DC blocking voltage, with typical junction-to-terminal thermal resistance of 10 °C/W - enabling direct PCB copper pad heatsinking for sustained 3.0 A average output current at terminal temperatures up to +100°C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Peak Repetitive Reverse Voltage | 150 V - defines maximum AC or transient voltage the diode blocks in reverse bias without breakdown |
| Average Rectified Output Current | 3.0 A @ TT = +100°C - sustainable DC output current with proper PCB copper pad heatsinking |
| Forward Voltage | 0.9 V @ IF = 3.0 A - determines conduction loss and thermal load in high-current rectification paths |
| Reverse Recovery Time | 25 ns - enables efficient operation in high-frequency switching power supplies up to ~500 kHz |
| Surge Current | 100 A (8.3 ms half-sine) - withstands inrush and fault transients in AC input stages |
| Junction-to-Terminal Rθ | 10 °C/W - allows direct thermal coupling to PCB copper for passive cooling without external heatsink |
Pinout & Package
ES3CB-13-F uses the SMB (DO-214AA) surface-mount plastic package with cathode band polarity marking. The two-terminal device has no internal connections beyond anode and cathode.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Positive input terminal during forward conduction | Connected to AC source or transformer secondary; carries full load current during positive half-cycle |
| Cathode | Output terminal during forward conduction | Connected to output capacitor or filter choke; marked by visible band on package body |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Glass passivated die | Enhances humidity resistance and long-term reliability in industrial environments without hermetic sealing |
| Super-fast 25 ns recovery | Reduces switching loss and EMI generation in high-frequency flyback and forward converters |
| 100 A surge rating | Eliminates need for external surge-limiting resistors in universal-input AC/DC front-ends |
| Lead-free, RoHS-compliant finish | Enables compliance with global environmental regulations and compatibility with lead-free reflow profiles |
Applications
| AC/DC Adapter Front-End | USB PD Power Supply Output Stage |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Universal-input (90–264 VAC) rectification feeding a 65 W USB PD controller IC. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary-side super-fast rectifier converting AC line to pulsating DC before PFC and isolation stages. Use Value: 25 ns tRR minimizes switching loss at 100 kHz operation; 0.9 V VF reduces conduction loss versus standard FRD alternatives. | Use Scenario: Secondary-side synchronous rectification replacement in 20–100 W GaN-based USB PD adapters. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-speed freewheeling diode in quasi-resonant flyback topology during gate-drive dead-time intervals. Use Value: 100 A IFSM handles startup surges; SMB footprint fits dense layout constraints without thermal derating. |
| Industrial PLC Power Input | LED Driver Bulk Rectification |
Use Scenario: DIN-rail mounted programmable logic controller with wide-range 85–305 VAC input. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Input bridge rectifier leg handling continuous 2.5 A load with 10°C ambient margin. Use Value: RθJT = 10 °C/W allows direct copper pad heatsinking; -55°C to +150°C rating ensures field reliability. | Use Scenario: Constant-current LED driver for street lighting operating at 100 kHz PWM dimming. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Bulk rectifier feeding high-voltage DC bus prior to buck converter stage. Use Value: 150 V VRRM provides 2× safety margin over 700 VDC bus; 45 pF CT limits capacitive coupling noise. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar super-fast rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH3L06S | 600 V VRRM, 3.0 A IO, 50 ns tRR, TO-277 package | Higher voltage rating but slower recovery; larger footprint | Select when >300 V blocking is required and 50 ns recovery is acceptable |
| MBR3150 | 150 V VRRM, 3.0 A IO, 35 ns tRR, SMB package, Schottky architecture | Lower VF (~0.55 V) but higher leakage (>100 µA @ 125°C) | Select when ultra-low forward loss dominates over leakage sensitivity in low-temperature environments |
Compared with STTH3L06S and MBR3150, ES3CB-13-F delivers optimal balance of 150 V rating, 25 ns speed, SMB footprint, and 500 µA leakage at 125°C - making it preferred for thermally constrained, high-frequency industrial and adapter designs where leakage and size are jointly critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature for ES3CB-13-F?
The ES3CB-13-F has an operating junction and storage temperature range of –55°C to +150°C. Its thermal resistance (RθJT = 10 °C/W) allows continuous 3.0 A operation at terminal temperatures up to +100°C when mounted on a 5.0 mm² copper pad per Diodes' recommended layout.
Is ES3CB-13-F suitable for automotive applications?
ES3CB-13-F is not AEC-Q101 qualified. While it meets industrial temperature and reliability requirements, Diodes specifies that automotive-grade versions require explicit PPAP documentation and IATF 16949 manufacturing - customers must contact Diodes directly for qualified variants such as the AEC-Q101-compliant ES3CBQ-13-F.
How does the SMB package compare to SMC for ES3CB-13-F?
ES3CB-13-F is only offered in the SMB (DO-214AA) package - the "B" suffix denotes SMB. The SMC variant would be ES3C-13-F. SMB measures 3.94 × 5.59 mm with 0.093 g mass; SMC is larger (6.22 × 7.11 mm, 0.21 g) and rated for identical electrical specs but higher thermal mass.
What is the meaning of the "-13-F" suffix in ES3CB-13-F?
The "-13-F" suffix indicates tape-and-reel packaging: 3000 units per reel, with lead-free (matte tin) plating and RoHS 3 compliance. "13" refers to Diodes' internal tape specification; "F" denotes green, halogen- and antimony-free construction per their environmental definition.
