Product details
Overview
ESH1DH from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 1 A, 200 V ultra-fast surface-mount rectifier diode in DO-214AC (SMA) package, featuring 15 ns reverse recovery time, 0.9 V max forward voltage at 1 A, and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive-grade reliability-used in snubber networks and freewheeling paths in DC-DC converters.
For engineers reviewing the ESH1DH datasheet, ESH1DH pinout, ESH1DH application, or ESH1DH equivalent, key selection criteria include peak repetitive reverse voltage (200 V), surge current capability (30 A), junction temperature range (–55°C to +175°C), thermal resistance (RθJL = 35°C/W), and RoHS/halogen-free compliance for automotive and industrial power designs.
Technical Context
The ESH1DH operates as a single-die, unidirectional silicon rectifier with glass-passivated junction for enhanced moisture resistance and long-term stability under thermal cycling. Its ultra-fast recovery (trr ≤ 15 ns) minimizes switching losses in high-frequency power conversion topologies.
Designed for surface-mount assembly, the device uses matte tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002 solderability and meets JESD201 Class 2 whisker resistance. Polarity is marked by a cathode band on the DO-214AC body, and its UL 94V-0 molding compound supports reflow and automated handling.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 200 V - maximum repetitive reverse blocking voltage before breakdown; defines usable input voltage headroom in flyback or boost snubbers |
| IF | 1 A continuous - average forward current rating at TL = 75°C; sets steady-state conduction capacity in freewheeling paths |
| IFSM | 30 A - non-repetitive surge current (8.3 ms half-sine); enables robustness against inductive turn-off transients |
| trr | 15 ns - reverse recovery time under IF = 0.5 A, IR = 1.0 A, Irr = 0.25 A; critical for minimizing switching loss in >100 kHz converters |
| VF | ≤ 0.9 V at IF = 1 A, TJ = 25°C - low conduction loss improves efficiency in low-voltage, high-current output stages |
| RθJL | 35 °C/W - junction-to-lead thermal resistance; enables direct heat transfer to PCB copper for passive thermal management |
Pinout & Package
Package: DO-214AC (SMA), molded plastic case with cathode band marking; 0.060 g weight; UL 94V-0 rated compound; matte tin-plated leads.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward current entry point | Connected to lower-potential side of inductive load or switch node; requires adequate copper area for thermal dissipation |
| Cathode | Forward current exit / reverse blocking terminal | Marked by visible band; ties to higher-potential rail or output capacitor; determines polarity-sensitive placement in layout |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q101 qualified | Validated for automotive power electronics per stress test requirements including HTGB, TC, HTRB, and UHAST |
| Glass passivated junction | Prevents moisture ingress and metallization corrosion, extending lifetime in humid or under-hood environments |
| Ultra-fast trr ≤ 15 ns | Reduces reverse recovery charge (Qrr) and associated switching loss in high-frequency SMPS designs |
| DO-214AC (SMA) package | Low-profile, surface-mountable outline compatible with standard pick-and-place equipment and reflow profiles |
| Moisture sensitivity level 1 | No dry-pack or baking required prior to assembly-reduces manufacturing overhead and handling risk |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar ultra-fast rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH1R02FL | 1 A, 200 V, trr = 25 ns, VF = 0.95 V, DO-214AC | Slower recovery increases switching loss above 200 kHz; same footprint but higher Qrr | Acceptable where frequency < 150 kHz or thermal margin exists |
| ON Semi MUR120 | 1 A, 200 V, trr = 35 ns, VF = 1.05 V, DO-41 axial lead | Through-hole package requires manual or wave soldering; not AEC-Q101 qualified | Suitable only for non-automotive, cost-sensitive prototyping |
Compared with STTH1R02FL and MUR120, the ESH1DH delivers superior high-frequency performance (15 ns trr) and automotive qualification in a surface-mount package-making it optimal for production-grade DC-DC snubbers and LED driver freewheeling where reliability and efficiency are prioritized over lowest BOM cost.

FAQ
What is the peak repetitive reverse voltage rating for ESH1DH?
The ESH1DH has a peak repetitive reverse voltage (VRRM) rating of 200 V, verified per Taiwan Semiconductor's A2102 datasheet. This defines the maximum reverse-biased voltage the diode can block continuously without avalanche breakdown. It is critical for selecting appropriate voltage margin in snubber or freewheeling applications where transient spikes may occur. The ESH1DH must not be operated beyond this rating under any condition.
Is ESH1DH qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, the ESH1DH is AEC-Q101 qualified per its official datasheet (Version A2102), confirming compliance with stress tests including high-temperature reverse bias (HTRB), temperature cycling (TC), and unbiased highly accelerated stress testing (UHAST). This makes ESH1DH suitable for under-hood and cabin automotive systems such as LED drivers and power supply auxiliary rails where reliability under thermal and humidity stress is mandatory.
What is the reverse recovery time of ESH1DH and how is it measured?
The ESH1DH has a maximum reverse recovery time (trr) of 15 ns, measured under conditions of IF = 0.5 A, IR = 1.0 A, and Irr = 0.25 A, per the A2102 datasheet. This parameter reflects the time required for the diode to transition from forward conduction to reverse blocking state. Its low value directly reduces switching losses in high-frequency DC-DC converters where the ESH1DH is commonly deployed.
What package type does ESH1DH use and what are its mechanical features?
The ESH1DH uses the DO-214AC (SMA) surface-mount package, with dimensions conforming to JEDEC standards. Key mechanical features include a UL 94V-0 rated molding compound, matte tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002, polarity indicated by a cathode band, and a weight of approximately 0.060 g. Its low profile supports automated placement and reflow soldering without special handling.
Does ESH1DH have halogen-free and RoHS compliance documentation?
Yes, the ESH1DH is both RoHS compliant and halogen-free per IEC 61249-2-21, as stated in the A2102 datasheet. These environmental qualifications are confirmed in the "Features" section and supported by Taiwan Semiconductor's material declarations. This ensures compatibility with modern electronics manufacturing processes and regulatory requirements for automotive and industrial end products.
