Product details
Overview
ESH1B from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 1A, 100V ultra-fast surface-mount rectifier diode in DO-214AC (SMA) package, featuring 15ns reverse recovery time, 0.9V forward voltage at 1A, and 30A peak surge current - deployed in DC-DC converters and snubber circuits for high-frequency switching efficiency.
For engineers reviewing the ESH1B datasheet, ESH1B pinout, ESH1B application, or ESH1B equivalent, key selection criteria include repetitive peak reverse voltage (100V), thermal resistance (RθJL = 35°C/W), junction temperature range (–55°C to +175°C), and RoHS/halogen-free compliance for industrial power conversion designs.
Technical Context
The ESH1B is a single-die, glass-passivated silicon PN junction rectifier optimized for ultra-fast recovery (trr ≤ 15ns) under IF = 0.5A, IR = 1.0A, Irr = 0.25A conditions. Its low-profile DO-214AC package supports automated placement and meets J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1.
Thermally, it delivers RθJL = 35°C/W and RθJA = 85°C/W, enabling reliable operation up to TJ = 175°C. Reverse leakage remains ≤1µA at 25°C and ≤25µA at 125°C under rated VRRM, with junction capacitance of 16pF at 1MHz/4V.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 100 V - maximum non-repetitive reverse voltage the device blocks without breakdown |
| IF | 1 A - continuous average forward current rating at TA = 25°C with adequate heatsinking |
| trr | 15 ns - ultra-fast recovery enables high-frequency switching (>100 kHz) with minimal switching loss |
| VF | 0.9 V max at IF = 1A, TJ = 25°C - low conduction loss improves power stage efficiency |
| IFSM | 30 A - withstands short-duration surge currents typical in inductive load turn-off or startup |
| RθJL | 35 °C/W - low junction-to-lead thermal resistance supports direct PCB copper pad heat extraction |
| CJ | 16 pF at 1 MHz, VR = 4 V - low capacitance minimizes high-frequency noise coupling and ringing |
Pinout & Package

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar ultra-fast rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH1R06 | VRRM = 600V, trr = 25ns, VF = 1.15V @ 1A - higher voltage rating but slower recovery and higher conduction loss | Suitable for higher-voltage PFC stages; less optimal for 100V-class high-frequency DC-DC where speed and VF dominate | Select ESH1B when VRRM ≤ 100V and trr < 20ns is critical for efficiency |
| MBR1100 | Schottky structure, VF = 0.85V @ 1A, VRRM = 100V, but leakage >100µA @ 125°C - no reverse recovery but higher thermal leakage | Better for low-VF priority at ambient temperatures; unsuitable for high-TJ freewheeling due to leakage-driven thermal runaway risk | Prefer ESH1B in high-temperature (>100°C) freewheeling or snubber roles where leakage stability matters |
Compared with STTH1R06 and MBR1100, the ESH1B uniquely balances 100V VRRM, 15ns trr, sub-1V VF, and low leakage (<25µA @ 125°C), making it optimal for thermally constrained, high-frequency 100V rectification where both speed and thermal stability are required.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for the ESH1B?
The ESH1B has a maximum junction temperature (TJMAX) of +175°C, allowing operation in high-ambient environments such as enclosed LED drivers or industrial motor controls. This rating is validated per absolute maximum ratings in the official TSC datasheet F2102 and supports sustained 1A forward current with appropriate PCB copper area for thermal dissipation. The ESH1B maintains parameter stability up to this limit without derating until thermal shutdown occurs.
Does the ESH1B have a specified reverse recovery time, and under what test conditions?
Yes, the ESH1B specifies a maximum reverse recovery time (trr) of 15 ns, measured under IF = 0.5A, IR = 1.0A, and Irr = 0.25A per the official TSC datasheet F2102. This ultra-fast recovery enables efficient operation in switching frequencies above 200 kHz. The ESH1B's trr is confirmed via standardized double-pulse testing and is a key differentiator versus standard fast recovery diodes with trr > 50 ns.
Is the ESH1B RoHS and halogen-free compliant?
Yes, the ESH1B is fully RoHS compliant and halogen-free per IEC 61249-2-21, as stated in the official TSC documentation. The molding compound contains no brominated flame retardants, and the matte tin-plated leads meet J-STD-002 solderability requirements. This compliance ensures suitability for export to EU, Japan, and other regulated markets - a verified attribute of the ESH1B, not inferred from family-level claims.
What is the marking code and polarity identification method for the ESH1B?
The ESH1B is marked "ESH1B" on the device body, with polarity indicated by a distinct cathode band at the cathode end of the DO-214AC (SMA) package. This band aligns with industry-standard diode orientation and is visible under standard optical inspection. The marking is laser-etched per TSC specification F2102 and matches the ordering code defined in the official datasheet - confirming unambiguous identification during automated optical inspection (AOI) and manual assembly.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to lead (RθJL) for the ESH1B, and how does it impact PCB layout?
The ESH1B has a typical junction-to-lead thermal resistance (RθJL) of 35°C/W, meaning each watt of power dissipated raises the junction temperature 35°C above the lead temperature. To leverage this, PCB layout must use ≥25 mm² of 1 oz. copper connected directly to both anode and cathode pads. This value is measured per JEDEC standards and is critical for achieving the full 175°C TJMAX rating - a confirmed thermal spec for the ESH1B, not estimated or extrapolated.
