Product details
Overview
FR154G-T from Taiwan Semiconductor is a fast recovery rectifier diode with 400 V repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM), 1.5 A average forward current (IF), and 150 ns reverse recovery time (trr) measured at IF = 0.5 A, IR = 1.0 A, Irr = 0.25 A - used in high-frequency switching power supplies for efficient AC/DC conversion.
For engineers reviewing the FR154G-T datasheet, FR154G-T pinout, FR154G-T application, or FR154G-T equivalent, key selection criteria include its DO-204AC (DO-15) package, 1.3 V max forward voltage at 1.5 A, 5 µA max reverse leakage at 25°C, 50 A surge rating, and suitability for DC-DC converters and SMPS where fast recovery and low conduction loss are critical.
Technical Context
The FR154G-T employs a single-die, glass-passivated PN junction optimized for fast recovery (trr = 150 ns) and low forward voltage drop. Its thermal resistance RθJA is 60°C/W, enabling operation up to 150°C junction temperature under defined PCB copper area conditions.
It is rated for repetitive reverse voltages up to 400 V (VRRM) and supports 8.3 ms half-sine surge currents up to 50 A (IFSM). Reverse leakage remains ≤5 µA at 25°C and ≤100 µA at 125°C, supporting stable performance across industrial ambient ranges.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 400 V - maximum non-repetitive reverse voltage the device blocks reliably in circuit |
| IF | 1.5 A - continuous average forward current capability at 75°C case temperature |
| trr | 150 ns - measured recovery time under specified test conditions (IF=0.5A, IR=1.0A, Irr=0.25A), critical for minimizing switching losses |
| VF (max) | 1.3 V - maximum forward voltage at 1.5 A and 25°C, directly impacts conduction loss and thermal design |
| IR (max) | 5 µA at 25°C - reverse leakage current limiting standby power loss in high-impedance bias networks |
| IFSM | 50 A - peak non-repetitive surge current tolerance, supports inrush and transient overload handling |
| RθJA | 60 °C/W - junction-to-ambient thermal resistance on standard FR-4 with 1-inch² copper pad, defines heatsinking requirement |
Pinout & Package
Package: DO-204AC (DO-15), axial leaded, glass-passivated, RoHS-compliant, halogen-free molding compound (UL 94V-0), cathode indicated by band.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward current entry point | Connected to lower-potential side of AC input or secondary winding; must handle full IF and IFSM |
| Cathode | Forward current exit / reverse blocking terminal | Connected to output rail or switching node; withstands full VRRM during off-state |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Glass passivated junction | Enhances long-term reliability and moisture resistance without requiring conformal coating |
| Low VF (≤1.3 V @ 1.5 A) | Reduces conduction loss and improves efficiency in high-duty-cycle SMPS designs |
| Fast trr (150 ns) | Minimizes reverse recovery charge (Qrr) and associated switching losses in 50–500 kHz converters |
| 50 A IFSM rating | Supports robust startup and fault tolerance in offline power supplies without external fusing |
| DO-15 mechanical compatibility | Enables drop-in replacement in legacy designs using industry-standard footprint and soldering profiles |
Applications
| AC/DC Adapter Power Supply | DC-DC Converter Secondary Rectification |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: 12 V/2 A offline adapter converting universal AC input to regulated DC output. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Fast recovery rectifier in bridge or single-phase output stage, conducting during positive half-cycles and blocking reverse voltage. Use Value: 150 ns trr and 1.3 V VF reduce switching losses and improve efficiency over standard recovery diodes, meeting Level VI efficiency requirements. | Use Scenario: Isolated flyback converter in industrial sensor module with 24 V input and 5 V/1 A isolated output. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Output rectifier synchronizing with transformer reset; conducts only when secondary voltage polarity allows. Use Value: Low IR (5 µA) minimizes no-load power draw, while 400 V VRRM provides margin against reflected transients in unregulated topologies. |
| Switching Inverter Auxiliary Supply | LED Driver Input Rectification |
Use Scenario: Auxiliary 15 V supply for gate drivers and control ICs in a 3-phase IGBT inverter. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Half-wave rectifier feeding capacitor-input filter; operates at line frequency but benefits from fast recovery to suppress ringing. Use Value: 50 A IFSM withstands capacitor inrush; glass passivation ensures reliability in thermally cycling motor drive environments. | Use Scenario: Non-isolated buck-boost LED driver for street lighting operating from 100–305 VAC input. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Input-stage rectifier in voltage-doubler or full-wave configuration before PFC stage. Use Value: 400 V VRRM supports 305 VAC peak (≈430 V), and 150°C TJ rating enables operation in enclosed, high-ambient luminaires. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar fast recovery rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH1L06S | 600 V VRRM, 1.1 A IF, 75 ns trr, SOD-123FL package | Higher voltage rating but lower current; surface-mount only | Select when board space is constrained and higher VRRM margin is needed, but derate IF to 1.1 A |
| ES1D-E3/57T | 200 V VRRM, 1 A IF, 35 ns trr, DO-214AA (SMA) package | Lower voltage and current; faster recovery but less rugged | Choose for low-voltage, high-frequency DC-DC outputs where 400 V rating is unnecessary |
Compared with STTH1L06S and ES1D-E3/57T, the FR154G-T offers balanced 400 V/1.5 A/150 ns performance in through-hole DO-15 format - ideal for cost-sensitive, thermally demanding, or serviceable power supplies where axial leads and proven ruggedness are prioritized.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for FR154G-T?
The FR154G-T has a maximum junction temperature (TJ) rating of +150°C, verified per absolute maximum ratings table. This allows reliable operation in enclosed power supplies or high-ambient environments when thermal design accounts for its 60°C/W junction-to-ambient resistance. Derating curves in the FR151G-T–FR157G-T datasheet confirm usable IF down to 0 A at 150°C case temperature.
Does FR154G-T have a halogen-free construction?
Yes, the FR154G-T uses halogen-free molding compound compliant with IEC 61249-2-21, as explicitly stated in the FEATURES section of the official Taiwan Semiconductor datasheet. This supports environmental compliance for RoHS and WEEE-directed products without compromising mechanical robustness or flammability rating (UL 94V-0).
What is the reverse recovery time test condition for FR154G-T?
The reverse recovery time (trr) of 150 ns for FR154G-T is measured under the specific condition: forward current IF = 0.5 A, reverse current IR = 1.0 A, and reverse recovery current Irr = 0.25 A - as defined in the ELECTRICAL SPECIFICATIONS table. This differs from typical 1.5 A test conditions used for other family members and reflects its optimized switching behavior at partial load.
Is FR154G-T compatible with lead-free reflow soldering?
Yes, FR154G-T features pure tin-plated leads qualified per J-STD-002 for solderability, and its DO-204AC package is rated for standard lead-free reflow profiles (peak ≤260°C). The UL 94V-0 molding compound and glass passivation ensure integrity through multiple thermal cycles without delamination or parameter shift.
How does FR154G-T differ from FR155G-T in practical design?
FR154G-T is rated for 400 V VRRM, while FR155G-T is rated for 600 V - a 50% higher blocking voltage. Both share identical IF (1.5 A), IFSM (50 A), and package (DO-15), but FR155G-T has slower trr (250 ns vs. 150 ns). Choose FR154G-T when 400 V margin suffices and faster recovery is prioritized; select FR155G-T for higher-voltage inputs or where surge robustness outweighs switching speed.
