Product details
Overview
ESH3C V7G from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 150V ultra-fast recovery surface-mount rectifier diode in DO-214AB (SMC) package, rated for 3A average forward current, 125A non-repetitive surge, and 20ns reverse recovery time - deployed in high-frequency switching mode power supplies for telecom and computing infrastructure.
For engineers reviewing the ESH3C V7G datasheet, ESH3C V7G pinout, ESH3C V7G application, or ESH3C V7G equivalent, key selection criteria include its 150V VRRM, 0.9V max forward voltage at 3A, 5µA max reverse leakage at 25°C, DO-214AB mechanical compatibility, and ultra-fast 20ns trr performance in compact SMC footprint.
Technical Context
The ESH3C V7G is a single-die, glass-passivated silicon junction rectifier optimized for high-efficiency DC/DC conversion where fast switching and low conduction loss are critical. Its 20ns reverse recovery time and 45pF junction capacitance support operation up to several hundred kHz in SMPS freewheeling and output rectification stages.
Thermally, it features 12°C/W junction-to-lead resistance and operates across –55°C to +175°C junction temperature range. The matte tin-plated leads meet J-STD-002 solderability and JESD201 Class 2 whisker resistance requirements.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 150 V - Maximum repetitive reverse blocking voltage; defines safe operating limit in flyback/freewheeling circuits |
| IF | 3 A - Continuous average forward current at TL = 75°C; determines thermal design margin in PCB layout |
| trr | 20 ns - Measured at IF = 0.5A, IR = 1.0A, Irr = 0.25A; enables high-frequency switching with minimal switching loss |
| VF (max) | 0.9 V @ 3A, 25°C - Directly impacts conduction loss and thermal rise in high-current output rails |
| IR (max) | 5 µA @ 25°C, 150V - Low leakage preserves efficiency in standby and light-load conditions |
| RθJL | 12 °C/W - Enables direct thermal coupling to copper pour or heatsink pad for reliable 3A operation |
Pinout & Package
Package: DO-214AB (SMC), molded epoxy case meeting UL 94V-0; cathode indicated by band; matte tin-plated leads; weight ≈ 0.200 g.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward current entry point | Connected to lower-potential node (e.g., switch node in buck converter); requires adequate copper area for thermal dissipation |
| Cathode | Forward current exit / reverse blocking terminal | Connected to output rail or ground return; polarity band must align with PCB silkscreen and layout |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Glass passivated junction | Enhances long-term reliability under thermal cycling and humidity exposure in industrial-grade power modules |
| Ultra-fast 20ns trr | Reduces switching losses and EMI generation compared to standard recovery rectifiers in >100kHz converters |
| DO-214AB (SMC) package | Supports automated pick-and-place; provides higher power density than DO-201AD while maintaining industry-standard footprint |
| Moisture sensitivity level 1 | Eliminates need for baking prior to reflow; compatible with standard SMT assembly lines without special handling |
Applications
| Telecom AC-DC Adapters | Server VRM Output Rectification |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Secondary-side rectification in 50–300W isolated AC-DC adapters for base station power units. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Ultra-fast output rectifier replacing Schottky diodes where 150V rating and low leakage are required. Use Value: 20ns trr minimizes reverse recovery loss during synchronous rectifier dead-time, improving full-load efficiency by ~0.4% over standard FRDs. | Use Scenario: Freewheeling path in multiphase buck converters supplying CPU/GPU core voltage (1.0–1.8V @ 100+ A). IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Auxiliary clamp or snubber rectifier in high-di/dt VRM stages where fast turn-off prevents voltage overshoot. Use Value: 125A IFSM withstands transient current spikes during load-step events without degradation. |
| Industrial PLC Power Supplies | Networking Switch DC-DC Modules |
Use Scenario: Input bridge or auxiliary bias supply rectification in DIN-rail mounted programmable logic controller power sections. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary-side rectifier in non-isolated buck-derived bias rails feeding control ICs and sensors. Use Value: –55°C to +175°C TJ rating ensures stable operation in unventilated enclosures with ambient up to 85°C. | Use Scenario: Isolated DC-DC converter output rectification in 1U rack-mounted Ethernet switches with 12V/48V backplane inputs. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-frequency secondary rectifier in forward or active-clamp forward topologies operating at 250–500kHz. Use Value: 45pF CJ limits capacitive coupling noise into sensitive SerDes lanes adjacent on multilayer PCBs. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar ultra-fast rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH3L06S | 600V VRRM, 3A IF, 35ns trr, same DO-214AB package | Higher voltage rating but slower recovery; suited for PFC front-end, not secondary-side SMPS | Select when system requires >200V blocking with moderate speed; avoid where <25ns trr is critical for efficiency |
| ON Semi MUR315 | 150V VRRM, 3A IF, 35ns trr, DO-214AB package, higher VF (1.15V) | Same voltage class but higher conduction loss and slower recovery; less efficient at high frequency | Acceptable for cost-sensitive designs below 100kHz; not recommended for >200kHz telecom or server applications |
Compared with STTH3L06S and MUR315, the ESH3C V7G delivers superior high-frequency efficiency due to its 20ns trr and 0.9V VF, making it optimal for dense, thermally constrained telecom and server power stages where switching loss dominates total loss.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for the ESH3C V7G?
The ESH3C V7G has a maximum junction temperature (TJ) of +175°C and a minimum of –55°C. This wide operating range allows reliable deployment in sealed industrial enclosures and high-ambient environments. Thermal design must ensure RθJL = 12°C/W is leveraged via proper PCB copper mass or heatsinking to maintain ESH3C V7G junction temperature within limits under 3A continuous load.
Does the ESH3C V7G have a halogen-free construction?
Yes, the ESH3C V7G uses halogen-free molding compound compliant with IEC 61249-2-21. This satisfies environmental compliance requirements for green electronics manufacturing and supports end-of-life recycling protocols. The halogen-free status applies to the entire device including encapsulant and leadframe, and is verified per TSC's material declarations for ESH3x series.
What does the 'V7G' suffix indicate in ESH3C V7G?
The 'V7G' suffix denotes Taiwan Semiconductor's internal date code and environmental marking: 'V7' corresponds to 2027 Week 7 production batch, and 'G' indicates green (halogen-free) compound per IEC 61249-2-21. It does not affect electrical specifications - all ESH3C devices share identical VRRM = 150V, trr = 20ns, and IF = 3A ratings regardless of suffix.
Is the ESH3C V7G suitable for use in automotive applications?
No, the ESH3C V7G is not qualified for automotive applications. Taiwan Semiconductor explicitly states that ESH3x devices are not designed for medical, life-saving, or life-sustaining systems - including automotive ADAS or powertrain functions. For automotive-grade alternatives, consult TSC's AEC-Q101-qualified rectifier portfolio; ESH3C V7G remains intended for industrial, telecom, and computing power supplies.
How is the cathode identified on the ESH3C V7G package?
The cathode of the ESH3C V7G is marked by a distinct color band printed on the body of the DO-214AB (SMC) package. Per mechanical drawing and JEDEC standards, this band aligns with the cathode terminal - the lead opposite the banded end is the anode. Correct orientation is essential to prevent reverse breakdown; PCB silkscreen must match the band position shown in TSC's marking diagram for ESH3C V7G.
