Product details
Overview
ES3FBHR5G from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 3A, 400V super fast recovery surface-mount rectifier in DO-214AA (SMB) package, featuring 35ns reverse recovery time, 0.98V forward voltage at 3A/25°C, and 100A surge current capability; used in high-frequency switching power supplies for efficient AC/DC conversion.
For engineers reviewing the ES3FBHR5G datasheet, ES3FBHR5G pinout, ES3FBHR5G application, or ES3FBHR5G equivalent, key selection criteria include VRRM=400V, IF=3A, trr≤35ns, thermal resistance RθJA=84°C/W, and SMB package compatibility with automated SMT assembly.
Technical Context
This discrete silicon rectifier employs a glass-passivated PN junction optimized for high-speed switching in off-line SMPS and DC-DC converters. Its 35ns reverse recovery time minimizes switching losses during high-frequency operation, while the 0.98V forward voltage at rated current supports thermal efficiency under continuous 3A conduction.
The device operates across -55°C to +150°C junction temperature range and delivers 100A non-repetitive surge current capability. Thermal performance is characterized with RθJL=24°C/W and RθJC=26°C/W on standard 10mm×10mm PCB copper pads, enabling reliable power handling in compact layouts.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar super fast rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH3L04S | VRRM=400V, IF=3A, trr=30ns, VF=0.95V@3A - Slightly faster recovery but higher cost and different SMB variant footprint | Same 400V class; tighter trr spec suits >1 MHz resonant converters | Prefer when minimizing turn-off loss is critical and layout allows ST's specific leadform |
| SB340-E3/5BT | VRRM=40V, IF=3A, trr=35ns - Lower voltage rating limits use to low-voltage DC-DC outputs only | Not suitable for AC line-derived inputs; restricted to ≤40V secondary rails | Select only for low-VOUT buck-derived supplies where 400V blocking is unnecessary |
Compared with STTH3L04S and SB340-E3/5BT, ES3FBHR5G offers optimal balance of 400V blocking, 35ns recovery, and SMB footprint compatibility for mainstream 230VAC-input SMPS - delivering verified thermal performance and RoHS/halogen-free compliance without over-specifying voltage or cost.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for ES3FBHR5G?
The ES3FBHR5G has a maximum junction temperature (TJMAX) of +150°C, allowing operation in thermally constrained environments such as enclosed LED drivers or high-density server PSUs. This rating is validated per TSC's absolute maximum ratings table and supports continuous 3A conduction when PCB thermal design meets specified RθJA=84°C/W conditions. The ES3FBHR5G maintains stable electrical parameters across its full -55°C to +150°C operating range.
Does ES3FBHR5G meet RoHS and halogen-free requirements?
Yes, ES3FBHR5G is RoHS compliant and halogen-free per IEC 61249-2-21. The device uses environmentally compliant molding compound and matte tin-plated leads, satisfying both regulatory and green manufacturing requirements for consumer, industrial, and medical-grade equipment. These certifications are documented in TSC's official product specification C2102 and verified through material declarations. The ES3FBHR5G is suitable for export to EU, Japan, and other regulated markets.
What is the reverse recovery time (trr) of ES3FBHR5G and how is it measured?
The ES3FBHR5G has a reverse recovery time (trr) of 35 ns, measured under conditions of IF=0.5A, IR=1.0A, and IRR=0.25A per TSC's electrical specifications. This value reflects the time required for the diode to transition from forward conduction to reverse blocking state, directly impacting switching loss in high-frequency converters. The ES3FBHR5G's 35 ns trr enables efficient operation in quasi-resonant and active-clamp topologies up to 500 kHz.
Can ES3FBHR5G replace ES3DB or ES3GB in existing designs?
ES3FBHR5G is not a direct replacement for ES3DB (200V) or ES3GB (500V) due to its specific 400V VRRM rating. Substitution requires verification of voltage stress margins: ES3FBHR5G may be used in place of ES3DB only if system transients remain below 400V, and cannot substitute ES3GB where 500V blocking is mandated. The ES3FBHR5G shares identical SMB package, thermal characteristics, and pinout with both, but voltage rating must be validated per circuit requirements.
What is the forward voltage drop of ES3FBHR5G at 3A and 125°C?
At 3A forward current and 125°C junction temperature, the ES3FBHR5G exhibits a typical forward voltage drop (VF) of 0.83V, with a maximum of 0.95V per TSC's electrical specifications. This reduced VF versus room-temperature operation improves thermal stability in high-ambient environments. Designers should use this 125°C value for worst-case power loss calculation in the ES3FBHR5G, especially in sealed or high-temperature applications like outdoor LED drivers.
