Product details
Overview
HER101G from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 1A, 50V high-efficiency glass-passivated fast recovery rectifier diode in DO-204AL (DO-41) package, featuring 1.0V forward voltage at 1A/25°C, 30A surge capability, and 50ns reverse recovery time - used in DC-DC converters and freewheeling paths.
For engineers reviewing the HER101G datasheet, HER101G pinout, HER101G application, or HER101G equivalent, key selection criteria include VRRM = 50V, IF = 1A, trr = 50ns, thermal resistance RθJA = 60°C/W, and AEC-Q101 qualification availability for automotive-grade variants.
Technical Context
This single-die, axial-leaded rectifier operates with a maximum junction temperature of 150°C and supports repetitive peak reverse voltages up to 50V. Its glass-passivated junction ensures stable performance under thermal cycling and humidity stress.
The device delivers low conduction loss (VF ≤ 1.0V @ 1A, 25°C) and fast switching (trr ≤ 50ns), enabling high-frequency operation in switching-mode power supplies without excessive switching loss or EMI generation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 50 V - Maximum non-repetitive reverse blocking voltage; defines safe operating range in flyback/freewheeling circuits |
| IF | 1 A - Continuous average forward current; sets thermal design margin for PCB trace width and heatsinking |
| IFSM | 30 A - Peak surge current (8.3ms half-sine); determines robustness against inrush and transient overloads |
| trr | 50 ns - Reverse recovery time; enables efficient operation up to ~1 MHz switching frequencies |
| VF | 1.0 V @ 1A, 25°C - Forward voltage drop; directly impacts conduction loss and thermal rise in power stage |
| RθJA | 60 °C/W - Junction-to-ambient thermal resistance; defines required ambient temperature derating for 1A continuous load |
Pinout & Package
Package: DO-204AL (DO-41), axial-leaded, glass-passivated silicon die, cathode indicated by band. Weight: 0.330 g.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (unbanded end) | Forward current entry point | Connected to lower-potential node (e.g., switch node in buck converter freewheel path) |
| Cathode (banded end) | Forward current exit / reverse blocking terminal | Connected to output rail or inductor return; blocks reverse voltage up to 50V |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Glass-passivated junction | Enables stable leakage current (<5 µA @ 25°C) and long-term reliability under humid or high-bias conditions |
| Fast recovery (50 ns) | Reduces switching losses and EMI in SMPS operating above 100 kHz |
| AEC-Q101 qualified option | Validated for automotive under-hood applications requiring extended temperature and vibration endurance |
| RoHS & halogen-free compliance | Meets IEC 61249-2-21 and J-STD-002 solderability standards for lead-free assembly |
Applications
| DC-DC Converter Output Rectification | Switching Mode Inverter Freewheeling |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Secondary-side rectification in isolated flyback or forward converters delivering 5–24V at ≤1A. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Unidirectional current conduction path during transformer demagnetization phase. Use Value: Low VF (1.0V) minimizes conduction loss; 50ns trr prevents reverse recovery shoot-through in synchronous designs. | Use Scenario: Freewheeling path across inductive loads (e.g., motor windings, solenoids) in H-bridge inverters. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Provides low-impedance return path when main switch turns off, clamping inductive kickback. Use Value: 30A IFSM withstands high-energy transients; DO-41 package allows through-hole mounting on high-current PCB traces. |
| Automotive Body Control Module Power Supply | Industrial AC-DC Auxiliary Rail |
Use Scenario: Input rectification for 12V auxiliary rails in BCMs, where space and thermal budget are constrained. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Converts rectified AC or battery-fed pulsating DC into smoothed DC for LDO or buck regulator input. Use Value: AEC-Q101-qualified variant available; 150°C TJMAX supports under-hood ambient up to 105°C with margin. | Use Scenario: Low-power auxiliary supply (≤1W) derived from mains via capacitive dropper or small transformer. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Half-wave or full-wave rectifier in low-cost, low-heat industrial control logic power rails. Use Value: UL 94V-0 molding compound meets safety requirements; pure tin leads ensure reliable reflow soldering. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-efficiency rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH1R06 | VRRM = 600V, trr = 65ns, VF = 1.15V @ 1A - higher voltage rating but slower recovery and higher VF | Targeted at 400–600V PFC or boost stages, not 50V low-voltage outputs | Select only if system requires >50V reverse blocking; HER101G offers better efficiency at 50V. |
| 1N4933 | VRRM = 200V, trr = 200ns, VF = 1.2V @ 1A - standard recovery, higher VF, no AEC-Q101 option | General-purpose replacement where speed and automotive qualification are not critical | HER101G provides 4× faster recovery and lower conduction loss; preferred for high-frequency SMPS. |
Compared with STTH1R06 and 1N4933, HER101G delivers optimal trade-off for 50V-class switching supplies: lowest VF, fastest trr, and AEC-Q101 availability - making it superior for compact, thermally constrained, or automotive-qualified designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for HER101G?
The HER101G has a maximum junction temperature (TJMAX) of +150°C, allowing operation in high-ambient environments such as automotive under-hood or enclosed industrial enclosures. Derating begins above 25°C ambient per the forward current derating curve, with full 1A rating maintained up to ~70°C ambient when mounted on standard FR-4 PCB with adequate copper area.
Is HER101G pin-compatible with standard DO-41 rectifiers like 1N4001?
Yes, HER101G uses the DO-204AL (DO-41) package with identical mechanical dimensions and axial lead configuration as 1N4001, enabling direct PCB footprint reuse. However, HER101G offers significantly faster recovery (50ns vs. 30µs) and lower forward voltage (1.0V vs. 1.1V), making it a performance upgrade - not just a drop-in replacement.
Does HER101G meet automotive qualification standards?
The base HER101G is not AEC-Q101 qualified, but Taiwan Semiconductor offers the HER101GH variant - identical electrically and mechanically, with full AEC-Q101 stress testing for temperature cycling, humidity, and mechanical shock. HER101G itself is suitable for non-automotive industrial use; HER101GH is required for automotive body electronics or infotainment power rails.
What is the reverse leakage current specification for HER101G at elevated temperature?
HER101G specifies reverse leakage current (IR) ≤ 5 µA at 25°C and rated VR, rising to ≤ 150 µA at 125°C. This low, well-characterized leakage supports stable operation in high-impedance bias networks and precision hold-up circuits where parasitic current must remain below 200 µA across the full operating temperature range.
How does the thermal resistance of HER101G affect PCB layout?
With RθJA = 60°C/W, HER101G requires ≥ 1 cm² of 2-oz copper pour connected to at least one lead for 1A continuous operation at 70°C ambient. Minimizing trace length between anode/cathode pads and high-current nodes reduces resistive heating, while avoiding thermal isolation under the body ensures effective conduction cooling - critical to maintaining TJ < 150°C.
