Product details
Overview
ES3CHR7G from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 3A, 700V super fast recovery surface-mount rectifier in DO-214AB (SMC) package, featuring 35ns reverse recovery time, 0.95V typical forward voltage at 3A/25°C, and 100A peak surge current - used for high-frequency freewheeling and output rectification in switching-mode power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the ES3CHR7G datasheet, ES3CHR7G pinout, ES3CHR7G application, or ES3CHR7G equivalent, key selection criteria include VRRM = 700V, IF = 3A, trr = 35ns, thermal resistance RθJA = 47°C/W, and DO-214AB mechanical compatibility with automated SMT assembly.
Technical Context
This super fast rectifier employs a glass-passivated silicon junction optimized for high-efficiency switching converters operating above 50kHz. Its low Qrr and tight trr distribution support reduced switching losses and EMI in DC-DC stages and secondary-side rectification.
The device operates across -55°C to +150°C junction temperature range, with moisture sensitivity level 1 (J-STD-020), matte tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002, and UL 94V-0 molding compound - enabling robust reliability in industrial and telecom power designs.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 700 V - maximum repetitive reverse blocking voltage; defines safe operating margin in 400–600V DC bus applications |
| IF | 3 A continuous - average forward current rating at TL = 75°C; determines heatsink-free operation in compact SMPS layouts |
| trr | 35 ns - measured at IF = 0.5A, IR = 1.0A, Irr = 0.25A; enables >200kHz switching without excessive diode recovery loss |
| VF | 0.95 V typ @ 3A, 25°C - low conduction loss improves efficiency in high-current output rails |
| RθJA | 47 °C/W - junction-to-ambient thermal resistance; informs PCB copper area requirements for thermal management |
| IFSM | 100 A - non-repetitive surge rating for inrush and fault conditions; supports robust startup in offline converters |
Pinout & Package
Package: DO-214AB (SMC), surface-mount, single-die configuration with cathode band polarity marking. Weight: 0.210 g.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward current entry point | Connected to lower-potential node (e.g., transformer secondary center-tap or switch node) |
| Cathode | Forward current exit / reverse blocking terminal | Connected to output rail; cathode band identifies this terminal visually and on PCB silkscreen |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Glass-passivated junction | Enables stable long-term leakage performance and humidity resistance per J-STD-020 MSL-1 |
| Super fast recovery (trr ≤ 35 ns) | Reduces reverse recovery charge (Qrr) and associated switching losses in hard-switched topologies |
| Matte tin-plated leads | Ensures reliable solder wetting and intermetallic formation per J-STD-002, supporting lead-free reflow |
| UL 94V-0 molding compound | Meets flammability safety requirements for enclosed power supply enclosures and telecom equipment |
Applications
| AC-DC Adapter Output Rectification | DC-DC Converter Freewheeling Diode |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Secondary-side rectification in 36–72W universal-input AC-DC adapters powering networking gear. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Unidirectional current conduction during flyback transformer reset phase; blocks reverse voltage during primary switch ON time. Use Value: 35ns trr minimizes voltage overshoot and snubber losses, improving efficiency by ~0.8% over standard fast rectifiers at 100kHz. | Use Scenario: Freewheeling path in synchronous buck converter output stage where high-side FET is active. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Provides low-loss current path when high-side switch turns OFF and inductor current must continue. Use Value: 0.95V VF reduces conduction loss at 3A load, lowering thermal stress on PCB layout versus higher-VF alternatives. |
| Telecom DC Power Distribution | Industrial SMPS Input Bridge Leg |
Use Scenario: OR-ing diode in redundant 48V DC distribution systems for base station power shelves. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Blocks reverse current flow between parallel power modules while conducting forward current during normal operation. Use Value: 700V VRRM provides 2× derating margin against transients on 48V bus, enhancing system uptime. | Use Scenario: Upper leg of full-wave bridge rectifier feeding PFC stage in 1kW industrial SMPS. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Conducts during positive half-cycle of AC input; blocks reverse voltage during negative half-cycle. Use Value: 100A IFSM withstands line surge events per IEC 61000-4-5, reducing need for external clamping. |
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-3EYH07-M3/45 | VRRM = 700V, trr = 30ns, VF = 0.92V @ 3A - slightly faster but same package and thermal profile | Identical use in SMPS freewheeling; tighter trr spec may reduce EMI filtering cost | Preferred where <30ns trr is required for EMI compliance; same footprint and reflow profile |
| ON Semiconductor MUR370G | VRRM = 700V, trr = 50ns, VF = 1.15V @ 3A - slower recovery and higher conduction loss | Suitable for lower-frequency (<100kHz) converters where efficiency trade-off is acceptable | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs efficiency gain; requires thermal review due to higher VF |
Compared with VS-3EYH07-M3/45 and MUR370G, ES3CHR7G delivers balanced performance: 35ns trr ensures low switching loss without premium pricing, while its 0.95V VF and DO-214AB thermal resistance support compact, thermally constrained designs without derating.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for ES3CHR7G?
The ES3CHR7G has a maximum junction temperature (TJ) of +150°C and a minimum of –55°C. This wide operating range allows the ES3CHR7G to function reliably in industrial environments with elevated ambient temperatures, provided PCB thermal design maintains junction temperature within limits using its specified RθJA = 47°C/W.
Is ES3CHR7G RoHS and halogen-free compliant?
Yes, ES3CHR7G is RoHS compliant and halogen-free per IEC 61249-2-21. The device uses matte tin-plated leads and UL 94V-0 molding compound, meeting environmental and safety requirements for commercial and industrial electronics without requiring special handling or exemptions.
What does the 'R7G' suffix indicate in ES3CHR7G?
The 'R7G' suffix in ES3CHR7G denotes the 700V VRRM rating (R7 = 700V) and green halogen-free compound (G). This follows Taiwan Semiconductor's ES3x family coding: ES3A = 50V, ES3B = 100V, ..., ES3J = 600V; ES3CHR7G extends the series to 700V with identical DO-214AB packaging and electrical behavior.
Can ES3CHR7G replace ES3J in existing designs?
ES3CHR7G is not a direct replacement for ES3J (600V) without validation. Although both share DO-214AB package and 3A rating, ES3CHR7G's 700V VRRM offers higher blocking margin but may exhibit different VF and trr curves. Review transient voltage stress and thermal performance before substituting ES3CHR7G for ES3J in legacy designs.
What is the reverse leakage current specification for ES3CHR7G at 100°C?
At TJ = 100°C and rated VR, ES3CHR7G exhibits a maximum reverse leakage current (IR) of 500 µA. This value is confirmed per the ES3x family electrical specifications and reflects stable junction integrity under elevated thermal stress - critical for maintaining efficiency in high-temperature power supply operation.
