Product details
Overview
HER1001G from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 10A, 50V high-efficiency ultrafast recovery rectifier diode in TO-220AB package with dual-die configuration, 1.0V typical forward voltage at 5A/25°C, 50ns reverse recovery time, and 125A surge rating - deployed in DC-DC converters and switching-mode power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the HER1001G datasheet, HER1001G pinout, HER1001G application, or HER1001G equivalent, key selection criteria include repetitive peak reverse voltage (50V), thermal resistance (1.5°C/W), junction temperature range (–55°C to +150°C), and AEC-Q101 qualification availability for automotive-grade variants.
Technical Context
This device is a single-phase, dual-die, ultrafast recovery rectifier optimized for high-frequency switching applications. It delivers low conduction loss via 1.0V VF (typ) at 5A and fast switching via 50ns trr, enabling efficient operation in SMPS topologies where reverse recovery behavior directly impacts EMI and efficiency.
The TO-220AB package provides mechanical robustness and thermal performance (RθJC = 1.5°C/W), supporting direct heatsink mounting. Its polarity marking and matte tin-plated leads comply with J-STD-002 solderability and JESD201 Class 2 whisker requirements.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 50 V - Maximum repetitive reverse blocking voltage; defines safe operating limit in flyback/freewheeling paths |
| IF | 10 A - Continuous forward current rating; determines steady-state power handling without derating |
| IFSM | 125 A - Non-repetitive surge current (8.3ms half-sine); supports inrush and transient overload tolerance |
| trr | 50 ns - Reverse recovery time at IF = 0.5A, IR = 1.0A, Irr = 0.25A; critical for minimizing switching loss in >100kHz converters |
| VF (typ) | 1.0 V @ 5A, 25°C - Low forward voltage drop reduces conduction loss and improves system efficiency |
| RθJC | 1.5 °C/W - Junction-to-case thermal resistance; enables predictable thermal design with heatsink interface |
| TJ max | +150 °C - Maximum junction temperature; sets upper boundary for thermal margin in enclosed environments |
Pinout & Package
Package: TO-220AB - Insulated case with center tab (cathode), two outer leads (anode and cathode), matte tin-plated terminals, UL 94V-0 molding compound, and 0.56 N·m maximum mounting torque.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Center Tab | Cathode (K) | Electrically connected to cathode; used for heatsink mounting and thermal path; must be isolated if floating ground required |
| Lead 1 (Left) | Anode (A) | Primary anode connection; carries full forward current into device during conduction phase |
| Lead 2 (Right) | Cathode (K) | Secondary cathode terminal; provides low-inductance return path and supports dual-terminal layout flexibility |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultrafast recovery (trr ≤ 50 ns) | Enables high-frequency switching (>200 kHz) with minimal reverse recovery loss and reduced EMI generation |
| Low VF (1.0 V typ @ 5A) | Reduces conduction losses by ~15% vs. standard FRDs, improving efficiency in 12V/24V DC-DC stages |
| Dual-die configuration | Provides redundancy and improved thermal distribution across TO-220AB footprint; enhances reliability under cyclic stress |
| AEC-Q101 qualified option (HER1001GH) | Validated for automotive under-hood applications including engine control modules and ADAS power supplies |
| RoHS & halogen-free | Complies with IEC 61249-2-21; supports environmentally regulated industrial and consumer end-equipment |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-efficiency rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vishay VS-10EWH05-M3 | 50V VRRM, 10A IF, 1.1V VF (max), 35ns trr, TO-220AC package (single leadframe) | Lower trr improves high-frequency efficiency but lacks dual-die thermal redundancy | Preferred where fastest switching dominates over thermal margin; not AEC-Q101 qualified |
| ON Semiconductor MUR1050CT | 50V VRRM, 10A IF per diode, 1.7V VF (max), 60ns trr, TO-220AB dual common-cathode | Higher VF increases conduction loss; same package footprint and pinout | Suitable for cost-sensitive industrial designs where 0.7V VF penalty is acceptable |
Compared with VS-10EWH05-M3 and MUR1050CT, HER1001G offers the best balance of low VF (1.0V typ), ultrafast trr (50ns), and dual-die thermal resilience in TO-220AB - making it optimal for thermally constrained, high-reliability 50V rectification where both efficiency and ruggedness matter.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for HER1001G?
The HER1001G has a maximum junction temperature (TJ max) of +150°C, verified per absolute maximum ratings in the official TSC datasheet Version I2104. This rating allows reliable operation in enclosed industrial enclosures with ambient temperatures up to 85°C when paired with appropriate heatsinking. Thermal design must respect the 1.5°C/W junction-to-case resistance to avoid exceeding TJ max during 10A continuous operation.
Is HER1001G pin-compatible with other HER10xxG devices?
No - while all HER10xxG devices share the TO-220AB package and dual-die configuration, HER1001G is rated for 50V VRRM and optimized for trr ≤ 50ns, whereas higher-voltage variants (e.g., HER1005G) exhibit higher VF and longer trr. Pinout is identical, but electrical substitution requires validation of reverse voltage, recovery time, and thermal constraints in the target circuit.
Does HER1001G have AEC-Q101 qualification?
The base HER1001G is not AEC-Q101 qualified; however, the variant HER1001GH (ordering code with "H" suffix) is fully AEC-Q101 qualified per Version I2104 documentation. HER1001GH undergoes additional stress testing for automotive under-hood use and shares identical electrical specs and TO-220AB packaging with HER1001G.
What is the typical forward voltage of HER1001G at 10A?
The datasheet specifies VF only at IF = 5A (1.0V typ, 1.3V max). At 10A, extrapolation using the typical forward characteristic curve (Fig.4) shows VF ≈ 1.15V at 25°C and ≈ 1.25V at 125°C. This value is confirmed by the device's exponential I-V relationship and thermal coefficient - no guaranteed max is published at 10A, so design margins should assume ≤1.35V.
How does the dual-die structure of HER1001G improve reliability?
The dual-die configuration in HER1001G distributes current and thermal stress across two parallel silicon dies within one TO-220AB package. This reduces localized heating, lowers effective junction temperature rise per die, and provides inherent redundancy - improving mean time to failure (MTTF) in high-cycle applications like motor drives and server PSUs where thermal cycling is severe.
