Product details
Overview
ES5J_HF from Diodes Incorporated is a surface-mount super fast rectifier diode rated for 600 V repetitive peak reverse voltage and 5.0 A average forward current at Tc=130°C, with 50 ns reverse recovery time and 1.3 V forward voltage at 5.0 A DC. It is used as a freewheeling or boost-stage diode in AC/DC SMPS PFC circuits, inverters, and high-efficiency switching power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the ES5J_HF datasheet, ES5J_HF pinout, ES5J_HF application, or ES5J_HF equivalent, key selection criteria include its AEC-Q101 qualification, DO-214AB (SMC) package thermal resistance (RΘJC = 8 °C/W), low IR (5.0 µA @ 25°C), and suitability for automotive-grade PFC and inverter designs requiring fast recovery and high junction temperature operation up to +175°C.
Technical Context
This super fast rectifier employs glass-passivated silicon die to achieve tight trr control (50 ns) under defined test conditions (IF = 0.5 A, IR = 1.0 A, IR = 0.25 A), enabling high-frequency operation in PFC boost stages. Its low VF (1.3 V @ 5.0 A) and low IR (300 µA @ 100°C) directly support efficiency targets in thermally constrained SMC-packaged designs.
The device operates across –55°C to +175°C junction temperature range and meets AEC-Q101 Rev. C stress testing requirements. Its RΘJA of 28 °C/W (on 75 mm × 75 mm × 2 mm Cu plate) and moisture sensitivity level 1 ensure robust manufacturability and reliability in automotive and industrial reflow environments.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 600 V - Withstands repetitive 600 V reverse transients in PFC boost output without breakdown. |
| IAV @ Tc=130°C | 5.0 A - Sustains continuous 5 A conduction when case temperature is held at 130°C, critical for compact heatsink designs. |
| trr | 50 ns - Enables efficient operation at >100 kHz switching frequencies by minimizing reverse recovery loss. |
| VF @ 5.0 A DC | 1.3 V - Limits conduction loss to ≤6.5 W at full load, reducing thermal burden in high-current paths. |
| IR @ 100°C | 300 µA - Ensures minimal leakage-induced power loss and stability in high-temperature inverter gate-drive isolation. |
| RΘJC | 8 °C/W - Allows direct thermal path from junction to PCB copper, supporting high-power density layout in SMC footprint. |
| Tj Range | –55°C to +175°C - Qualified for under-hood automotive and industrial ambient environments without derating. |

Use Value: 50 ns trr and 1.3 V VF reduce switching and conduction losses, enabling >96% PFC efficiency at 230 VAC full load. |
Use Scenario: Bidirectional DC link clamping in 3-phase motor inverter for HVAC compressors or traction drives. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Freewheeling diode providing low-loss current recirculation path during IGBT/MOSFET dead-time. Use Value: Low IR (300 µA @ 100°C) prevents thermal runaway in high-ambient inverter modules operating continuously at 125°C case temp. |
| Automotive DC-DC Converter | Industrial UPS Rectification |
Use Scenario: 12 V to 48 V bidirectional DC-DC stage in 48 V mild hybrid vehicle architecture.

Use Value: AEC-Q101 qualification and –55°C to +175°C Tj range ensure functional safety compliance and cold-cranking survivability. |
Use Scenario: Input rectifier in online double-conversion UPS handling 3-phase 400 VAC input with active PFC front-end. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary rectifier in high-efficiency boost PFC stage delivering 5 kW output with forced-air cooling. Use Value: RΘJC = 8 °C/W enables direct mounting to heatsink via SMC anode/cathode pads, eliminating thermal interface material in high-volume production. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar super fast rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH5L06S | Same VRRM (600 V), higher IFSM (150 A), but slower trr (75 ns) and higher VF (1.55 V @ 5 A). | Less suitable for >150 kHz PFC; better for surge-heavy industrial rectification where recovery speed is secondary. | Select if surge immunity > efficiency is prioritized; verify thermal margin due to +0.25 V VF penalty. |
| ON Semi MUR560 | Identical VRRM and IAV, but trr = 60 ns and VF = 1.4 V @ 5 A; not AEC-Q101 qualified. | Limited to commercial/industrial use; unsuitable for automotive applications requiring stress qualification. | Choose only for cost-sensitive non-automotive designs where AEC-Q101 is not mandated. |
Compared with STTH5L06S and MUR560, ES5J_HF delivers superior high-frequency efficiency (50 ns trr, 1.3 V VF) and automotive-grade reliability (AEC-Q101), making it optimal for space-constrained, thermally demanding PFC and inverter designs where both performance and qualification matter.
