Product details
Overview
HER102G from Taiwan Semiconductor is a high-efficiency, glass-passivated silicon rectifier diode rated for 1 A average forward current and 100 V repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM), with low 1.0 V forward voltage at 1 A and 50 ns reverse recovery time - used in DC-DC converters and switching-mode power supplies where fast recovery and thermal reliability are critical.
For engineers reviewing the HER102G datasheet, HER102G pinout, HER102G application, or HER102G equivalent, key selection factors include its DO-41 package compatibility, AEC-Q101 qualification option (HER102GH), 30 A surge capability, 150 °C max junction temperature, and verified performance in freewheeling and flyback topologies.
Technical Context
The HER102G employs a single-die, planar-glass-passivated PN junction optimized for high-speed switching in medium-voltage SMPS applications. Its 50 ns reverse recovery time (trr) and 15 pF junction capacitance at 1 MHz/4 V enable reduced switching losses compared to standard rectifiers.
Thermally, it features a junction-to-ambient resistance of 60 °C/W and junction-to-case resistance of 15 °C/W in the DO-204AL (DO-41) package, supporting continuous 1 A operation up to 75 °C ambient when mounted on FR-4 PCB with minimal copper area.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 100 V - maximum non-repetitive reverse voltage the device blocks reliably in circuit |
| IF | 1 A - continuous average forward current rating at 75 °C ambient on standard PCB |
| VF @ 1 A | 1.0 V - forward voltage drop determining conduction loss and thermal rise in power stage |
| trr | 50 ns - reverse recovery time defining minimum dead-time requirements in synchronous designs |
| IFSM | 30 A - peak non-repetitive surge current handling capability during startup or fault conditions |
| TJ(max) | 150 °C - maximum allowable junction temperature enabling operation in compact, thermally constrained enclosures |
| CJ | 15 pF @ 1 MHz, 4 V - junction capacitance influencing high-frequency noise coupling and EMI filter design |
Pinout & Package
HER102G is housed in a DO-204AL (DO-41) axial-leaded package with cathode indicated by a band; leads are pure tin-plated and solderable per J-STD-002.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (unbanded end) | Forward current entry point | Connects to lower-potential node (e.g., switch node in buck converter or transformer secondary) |
| Cathode (banded end) | Forward current exit / reverse blocking terminal | Connects to output rail or positive bus; must withstand full VRRM during off-state |

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 | Same 1 A / 600 V rating but higher VF (1.3 V typ), slower trr (75 ns), TO-220AC package | Requires heatsink above ~0.5 A; unsuitable for space-constrained DO-41 layouts | Select HER102G for cost-sensitive, board-level 100 V rectification where DO-41 footprint and low VF are prioritized. |
| ES1B | 1 A / 100 V, 35 ns trr, but only 10 A IFSM and no AEC-Q101 option | Limited surge robustness in high-inductance circuits; not qualified for automotive use | Choose HER102G when 30 A surge margin or AEC-Q101 compliance (via HER102GH) is required. |
Compared with STTH1R06 and ES1B, HER102G delivers optimal balance of low forward loss, fast recovery, and proven reliability in compact through-hole packages - especially where surge immunity, thermal headroom, and qualification traceability matter.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for HER102G?
The HER102G has a maximum junction temperature (TJ(max)) of +150 °C, allowing reliable operation in thermally demanding environments such as enclosed power supplies or proximity to heat-generating components. This rating is validated under specified thermal conditions and supports derating curves up to 75 °C ambient at full 1 A load. HER102G must be mounted with adequate PCB copper area to maintain safe operating temperature.
Is HER102G pin-compatible with other DO-41 rectifiers like 1N4002 or UF4002?
HER102G uses the standard DO-41 axial package with anode/cathode polarity matching industry convention (cathode band on one end), making it mechanically interchangeable with 1N4002 and UF4002. However, HER102G offers significantly faster recovery (50 ns vs. 2 µs for 1N4002) and lower VF than 1N4002, so direct substitution requires circuit validation for switching speed and loss trade-offs. HER102G is not a drop-in replacement for UF4002 without checking layout thermal margins.
Does HER102G meet automotive qualification standards?
The base HER102G is not AEC-Q101 qualified, but Taiwan Semiconductor offers the HER102GH variant - identical electrically and mechanically but fully tested and certified to AEC-Q101 for automotive applications. HER102GH includes extended temperature cycling, humidity testing, and failure analysis per the standard. For automotive designs, specify HER102GH rather than HER102G to ensure compliance.
What is the reverse leakage current specification for HER102G at elevated temperature?
HER102G specifies a maximum reverse leakage current (IR) of 150 µA at 125 °C and rated reverse voltage (100 V). At 25 °C, leakage is limited to 5 µA. This elevated-temperature leakage performance is enabled by the glass-passivated junction and supports stable operation in high-ambient environments such as engine bay or industrial control cabinets where thermal management is limited.
Can HER102G be used in surface-mount designs?
HER102G is only offered in the through-hole DO-41 package and is not available in surface-mount variants. It cannot be directly used in SMT-only assemblies without adapter hardware. For SMT alternatives with similar 1 A / 100 V specs, consider devices like SMAJ10A or SOD-123 packaged fast rectifiers - but note differences in trr, VF, and thermal resistance. HER102G remains optimal for through-hole prototyping, repair, or legacy board upgrades.
