Product details
Overview
FESB8JTHE3_A/P from Vishay General Semiconductor is an ultrafast plastic rectifier diode in TO-263AB (D²PAK) package, rated for 600 V repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM), 8.0 A average forward current (IF(AV)), and 35 ns reverse recovery time (trr). It serves as a high-efficiency freewheeling or output rectifier in high-frequency switching power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the FESB8JTHE3_A/P datasheet, FESB8JTHE3_A/P pinout, FESB8JTHE3_A/P application, or FESB8JTHE3_A/P equivalent, key selection criteria include its 600 V blocking capability, low 0.95 V forward voltage at 8 A, 125 A surge rating, RoHS-compliant construction, and TO-263AB thermal performance with RθJC = 2.2 °C/W.
Technical Context
This device is a single-die, glass-passivated silicon junction rectifier optimized for high-speed switching. Its 35 ns trr and low stored charge enable minimal switching losses in hard-switched topologies operating up to several hundred kHz.
Designed for surface-mount heatsink attachment via the exposed cathode tab (Pin 2), it delivers thermal resistance of 2.2 °C/W junction-to-case and supports continuous operation up to 150 °C junction temperature, with 10 µA max reverse leakage at 25 °C and 500 µA at 100 °C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 600 V - Supports primary-side snubberless flyback or secondary-side rectification in 48 V–400 V DC bus systems |
| IF(AV) | 8.0 A at TC = 100 °C - Enables compact heatsinking in space-constrained 100–200 W SMPS designs |
| trr | 35 ns - Reduces turn-off loss and EMI generation in 200–500 kHz PWM converters |
| VF | 0.95 V @ 8 A - Low conduction loss improves efficiency over Schottky alternatives above 100 V |
| RθJC | 2.2 °C/W - Allows direct PCB copper pour heatsinking without additional thermal interface material |
| IFSM | 125 A (8.3 ms half-sine) - Withstands inrush and transient overloads in industrial power supplies |
Pinout & Package
Package: TO-263AB (D²PAK), surface-mount with isolated mounting tab (cathode). Molded epoxy meets UL 94V-0; matte tin-plated leads comply with J-STD-002 solderability.

|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 (Anode) | Anode connection | Soldered to input/switch node; carries full load current during conduction phase |
| Pin 2 (Cathode / Tab) | Cathode and thermal path | Electrically connected to cathode; must be soldered to large copper area for thermal management |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar ultrafast rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH8R06DJF | Same TO-263AB package, 600 V VRRM, but trr = 55 ns and VF = 1.15 V @ 8 A | Higher conduction and switching loss; less suitable for >300 kHz designs | Prefer when cost sensitivity outweighs efficiency targets in 100–200 kHz telecom supplies |
| IXYS MUR860E | TO-220AC package, identical 600 V/8 A ratings, trr = 35 ns, but RθJC = 5.0 °C/W | Requires larger heatsink and through-hole assembly; unsuitable for SMT-only production | Select only if legacy TO-220 footprint reuse is mandatory and thermal margin allows 2.3× higher junction rise |
Compared with STTH8R06DJF and IXYS MUR860E, FESB8JTHE3_A/P delivers superior thermal performance (RθJC = 2.2 °C/W) and lowest VF in its class, making it optimal for high-density, high-efficiency SMT power stages where board space and thermal headroom are constrained.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for FESB8JTHE3_A/P?
The FESB8JTHE3_A/P has a maximum junction temperature (TJ(max)) of +150 °C, enabling operation in high-ambient environments such as enclosed server chassis or industrial enclosures. This rating is validated per JEDEC standards and supported by its 2.2 °C/W thermal resistance, allowing sustained 8 A conduction with appropriate PCB copper area.
Is FESB8JTHE3_A/P compatible with lead-free reflow soldering processes?
Yes, FESB8JTHE3_A/P is rated MSL Level 1 per J-STD-020 and qualified for peak reflow temperatures up to 245 °C, making it fully compatible with standard Pb-free SAC305 reflow profiles. Its matte tin-plated leads meet J-STD-002 solderability requirements without pre-baking.
Does FESB8JTHE3_A/P have automotive qualification?
No, FESB8JTHE3_A/P carries the E3 suffix indicating consumer-grade qualification per JESD201 Class 1A whisker testing. For automotive applications, Vishay offers the HE3-suffix variant (e.g., FESB8JTHE3) which is AEC-Q101 qualified and meets JESD201 Class 2.
What is the reverse leakage current specification for FESB8JTHE3_A/P at elevated temperature?
At TC = 100 °C and rated VDC = 600 V, the FESB8JTHE3_A/P exhibits a maximum reverse leakage current (IR) of 500 µA. At 25 °C, the limit is 10 µA - both values confirmed in the Vishay Document Number 88600 datasheet under Electrical Characteristics.
How does the TO-263AB package of FESB8JTHE3_A/P improve thermal performance versus TO-220AC?
The TO-263AB package of FESB8JTHE3_A/P achieves RθJC = 2.2 °C/W, compared to 5.0 °C/W for the TO-220AC variant (FES8JTHE3). This 56 % lower thermal resistance results from the D²PAK's larger copper tab area and optimized internal bond wire layout, enabling more efficient heat transfer to the PCB heatsink.
