Product details
Overview
FRAF10JGH from Taiwan Semiconductor is an AEC-Q101-qualified fast recovery rectifier diode rated for 10 A average forward current and 600 V repetitive peak reverse voltage, featuring 200 ns reverse recovery time and glass-passivated junction. It is designed for high-efficiency DC/DC converters, snubber networks, and freewheeling paths in automotive-grade power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the FRAF10JGH datasheet, FRAF10JGH pinout, FRAF10JGH application, or FRAF10JGH equivalent, key selection criteria include surge capability (290 A IFSM), thermal resistance (2.1 °C/W RθJC), junction temperature range (–55 to +150 °C), and AEC-Q101 qualification status for automotive reliability validation.
Technical Context
The FRAF10JGH operates as a single-die, unidirectional fast recovery rectifier with optimized carrier lifetime control to achieve low trr (≤200 ns) while maintaining low forward voltage (1.10 V at 10 A, 25 °C). Its ITO-220AC package enables direct heatsink mounting and supports high transient surge currents up to 650 A (1 ms).
Thermal performance is defined under standardized test conditions: RθJC = 2.1 °C/W measured on a 4"×6"×0.25" aluminum heatsink, and RθJA = 8.8 °C/W in free air. The device uses matte tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002 solderability and JESD201 Class 2 whisker resistance.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| IF (Avg) | 10 A - Sustained conduction current rating for continuous operation in switching power supplies |
| VRRM | 600 V - Maximum repetitive reverse blocking voltage without breakdown; defines system isolation margin |
| trr | ≤200 ns - Fast recovery ensures minimal switching losses and reduced EMI in high-frequency SMPS |
| IFSM (8.3 ms) | 290 A - Peak non-repetitive surge current handling for startup/load-dump transients |
| RθJC | 2.1 °C/W - Enables efficient heat transfer to external heatsink; critical for thermal design in compact enclosures |
| Junction Temp Range | –55 to +150 °C - Supports operation in under-hood automotive environments and industrial ambient extremes |
| AEC-Q101 Qualified | Yes - Validated for automotive electronics per stress-test requirements including HTOL, TC, HTRB, and UHAST |
Pinout & Package
Package: ITO-220AC - Insulated TO-220 variant with electrically isolated tab, UL 94V-0 molding compound, and matte tin-plated leads. Mounting via single screw through tab; polarity marked on case.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (Lead 1) | Forward current entry point | Connected to input/high-side node in rectification path; requires trace width and copper pour matching 10 A thermal/current needs |
| Cathode (Lead 2) | Forward current exit / reverse blocking terminal | Typically tied to ground or low-side switch node; serves as reference for voltage clamping in snubber circuits |
| Tab (Case) | Electrically isolated thermal path | Provides mechanical mounting and thermal conduction to heatsink; no electrical connection required by design |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Glass passivated junction | Enhances long-term reliability and moisture resistance in humid or chemically aggressive environments |
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Confirms suitability for automotive powertrain and body electronics where failure modes must meet stringent safety thresholds |
| High IFSM (290 A) | Withstands inrush and fault currents in DC/DC modules without catastrophic failure during system-level overloads |
| Halogen-free construction | Complies with IEC 61249-2-21 and RoHS; eliminates corrosive halogen emissions during PCB reflow or end-of-life incineration |
| Low VF (1.10 V @ 10 A) | Reduces conduction losses by ~11% versus typical 1.25 V diodes, improving efficiency in 12 V–48 V intermediate bus converters |
Applications
| DC/DC Converter | Snubber Circuit |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Secondary-side synchronous rectification in isolated flyback or forward converters for ADAS ECUs. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Unidirectional power conversion element conducting during transformer reset phase; replaces slower standard recovery diodes.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar fast recovery rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH10R06DJF | Same 10 A / 600 V rating; trr = 150 ns (faster), VF = 1.15 V @ 10 A (higher), TO-220AC package | Higher speed suits >300 kHz designs; slightly higher VF increases conduction loss in 100–200 kHz converters | Prefer for ultra-fast switching topologies where trr dominates loss budget |
| IXYS MUR1060CT | Dual common-cathode configuration; each die rated 10 A / 600 V; trr = 60 ns; TO-220AB package with electrically connected tab | Enables dual-output or interleaved designs; tab not isolated - requires insulating hardware if heatsink grounded | Select when dual-diode functionality or sub-100 ns recovery is required; verify tab isolation needs |
Compared with STTH10R06DJF and IXYS MUR1060CT, the FRAF10JGH offers AEC-Q101 qualification and electrically isolated tab in ITO-220AC - making it uniquely suited for automotive single-diode freewheeling and snubbing where reliability, isolation, and thermal management are jointly critical.

FAQ
What does the "H" suffix in FRAF10JGH signify?
The "H" suffix in FRAF10JGH explicitly denotes AEC-Q101 qualification - a rigorous automotive reliability standard covering high-temperature operating life, temperature cycling, and unbiased highly accelerated stress testing. This distinguishes FRAF10JGH from the non-automotive FRAF10JG variant and confirms its suitability for under-hood and safety-critical applications.
Is the tab of the FRAF10JGH electrically isolated?
Yes, the tab of the FRAF10JGH is electrically isolated from both anode and cathode terminals, as confirmed by its ITO-220AC package designation. This isolation enables direct mounting to a grounded heatsink without additional insulation, simplifying thermal design while maintaining circuit separation integrity.
What is the maximum allowable case temperature for FRAF10JGH in continuous operation?
The FRAF10JGH has a maximum junction temperature of +150 °C, and its thermal resistance RθJC is 2.1 °C/W. For continuous 10 A operation with 1.10 V forward drop (11 W dissipation), the case temperature must remain ≤127 °C to maintain safe junction margin - achievable with appropriate heatsinking per the 4"×6"×0.25" Al-plate reference condition.
How does FRAF10JGH compare to standard recovery rectifiers in switching applications?
FRAF10JGH delivers significantly lower reverse recovery charge (Qrr) and trr (≤200 ns) than standard recovery diodes (typically >2 µs), reducing switching losses, voltage overshoot, and EMI generation in SMPS above 50 kHz. Its fast recovery enables higher-frequency operation without sacrificing efficiency or reliability.
Can FRAF10JGH be used in surface-mount designs?
No, FRAF10JGH is exclusively offered in the through-hole ITO-220AC package and is not available in surface-mount variants. Its thermal and mechanical design relies on screw-mounted heatsink attachment; SMT alternatives would require different part numbers such as TSC's SMD-qualified fast rectifiers (e.g., FRS10J series in DO-214AB).
