Product details
Overview
GP1607 from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 16A, 1000V standard rectifier diode in TO-220AB package with dual-die configuration, 150A surge rating, and 1.5°C/W junction-to-case thermal resistance-designed for high-efficiency DC-DC converters and industrial inverters.
For engineers reviewing the GP1607 datasheet, GP1607 pinout, GP1607 application, or GP1607 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 1000V VRRM, 1.1V max forward voltage at 8A, 250µA reverse leakage at 125°C, TO-220AB mechanical compatibility, and AEC-Q101 qualification availability (GP1607H variant).
Technical Context
The GP1607 operates as a single-phase, standard recovery rectifier with dual-die construction enabling parallel current handling within one TO-220AB outline. Its 1000V repetitive peak reverse voltage supports high-voltage bus applications in switching power supplies and motor drives.
Thermal performance is defined by RθJC = 1.5°C/W and TJ(max) = 150°C, allowing sustained 16A conduction under forced-air or heatsink-cooled conditions. Reverse recovery behavior follows standard (non-fast/soft) recovery characteristics per typical curves in the datasheet.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 1000 V - Supports isolation and rectification in 800V-class DC bus systems |
| IF | 16 A - Continuous forward current rating at TC = 75°C with heatsink |
| IFSM | 150 A - Withstands 8.3ms half-sine surge, critical for inrush-limited SMPS startup |
| VF (max) | 1.1 V @ 8A, 25°C - Limits conduction loss to ≤8.8W per diode at rated current |
| RθJC | 1.5 °C/W - Enables ~24°C temperature rise above case at full 16A load |
| IR (max) | 250 µA @ 125°C - Ensures low standby leakage in high-temperature industrial environments |
Pinout & Package
Package: TO-220AB, 3-terminal through-hole outline with center tab (cathode-connected metal flange), matte tin-plated leads, UL 94V-0 molding compound, 1.82g mass, polarity marked on device body.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (Lead 1) | Input current entry | Connected to AC or switched node; requires clearance for 1000V working voltage |
| Cathode (Lead 2) | Output current exit | Electrically tied to metal tab; must be isolated or heatsinked with insulating washer |
| Metal Tab (Cathode) | Thermal & electrical cathode path | Primary heat dissipation surface; electrically active-requires dielectric mounting |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 1000V VRRM rating | Enables direct use in 700–800V DC-link rectification without series stacking |
| 1.1V max VF at 8A | Reduces conduction loss by ≥15% vs. legacy 1.3V rectifiers at same current |
| Dual-die configuration | Provides redundancy and current-sharing margin within single TO-220AB footprint |
| RθJC = 1.5°C/W | Supports 16A operation with ≤45°C case rise using standard 15°C/W heatsink |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar standard rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH1610D | 16A/1000V, TO-220AC package, single-die, VF = 1.25V max @ 8A | No dual-die redundancy; higher conduction loss | Preferred where cost sensitivity outweighs thermal margin needs |
| VS-16EWH10 | 16A/1000V, TO-247AC package, VF = 1.05V typ, RθJC = 1.0°C/W | Larger footprint, superior thermal performance, no AEC-Q101 option | Selected when board space permits and lower thermal resistance is critical |
Compared with STTH1610D and VS-16EWH10, the GP1607 offers unique dual-die reliability within TO-220AB, balanced VF/thermal trade-offs, and optional AEC-Q101 qualification-making it optimal for space-constrained industrial and automotive auxiliary power designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for GP1607?
The GP1607 has a maximum junction temperature (TJ(max)) of +150°C, verified per absolute maximum ratings table. This allows continuous operation at full 16A current with appropriate heatsinking and ambient derating. The GP1607 maintains specified electrical parameters up to this limit, and thermal shutdown is not integrated-external thermal monitoring is required for safety-critical systems.
Does GP1607 have AEC-Q101 qualification?
The GP1607 itself is not AEC-Q101 qualified; however, the GP1607H variant-identical electrically and mechanically but with enhanced process controls and test screening-is AEC-Q101 qualified. For automotive applications requiring qualification, GP1607H must be specified. The base GP1607 remains suitable for industrial and commercial use where qualification is not mandated.
What is the reverse recovery time (trr) of GP1607?
The GP1607 is a standard recovery rectifier and does not specify reverse recovery time (trr) in its datasheet. It is not optimized for fast-switching topologies. For circuits requiring trr < 500ns, a fast or ultrafast rectifier (e.g., GP1607F variant if available, or STTH1610D) should be selected instead. The GP1607 is intended for line-frequency and moderate-frequency (<100kHz) switching applications.
Can GP1607 be used in parallel configurations?
Yes, the GP1607's dual-die construction inherently supports current sharing within a single device, and multiple GP1607 units can be paralleled with proper thermal balancing and current-sharing resistors. However, due to parameter spread (e.g., VF tolerance), external ballasting is recommended for >2-unit parallel operation. The GP1607's matched dies reduce mismatch risk compared to single-die alternatives.
What is the marking code on the GP1607 device body?
The GP1607 is marked "GP1607" on the device body, followed by date code (YWW format), factory code (F), and green compound indicator (G), per the official marking diagram. This marking confirms the 1000V rating and distinguishes it from lower-voltage GP1601–GP1606 variants. No additional suffix indicates standard (non-AEC-Q101) grade.
